Abstract: The invention relates to a continuous dryer for web-fed rotary offset printing machines for drying printed webs of material, furthermore to the operation of such a continuous dryer during printing and blanket washing with checking of the gaseous and vapour proportions of ink, washing fluid and burner. 
<??>According to the invention, an IR radiation path (11) is arranged in the dryer in order to measure the main concentrations of the gas/vapour proportions located in the gas chamber using IR absorption. The process followed by the continuous dryer can thus be oriented to evaporation rates of the volatile components. 
<??>In the IR absorption measurement, spectral measured values of substance vapours of the offset printing ink appear during printing and of substances of the cleaning agent during blanket washing in accordance with their characteristic band position and intensity. 
<??>In the transition from printing to blanket washing, an immediate picture is produced of the curve of the gas/vapour concentration level corresponding to the band intensities. Depending on the concentration limit, intervention in the adjustment of the flow (4), heating (2) and ventilation equipment of the dryer or targeted metering of the cleaning agent are derived. 
<??>Deflagrations in the dryer are avoided due to the lack of delay time in on-line measurement in the case of rapid adjustment reaction or precalculated adjustment. 
<??>The changing batches of printing ink are checked in respect of their substance composition by way of the measured absorption values. 
<??>The burner adjustments (16) are likewise checked, e.g. via the CO band and fuel gas bands of the mixture.

Title: Anti-aliased font translation
Inventor: BEITEL BRADLEY JAMES
IPC: G06F3/147
Filed: 1990-05-31
Abstract: A method of generating a second, substantially anti-aliased, representation of a character from a first representation is disclosed. The second representation is comprised of horizontal lines of dots that are shifted horizontally relative to dots of the first representation, each dot of the first representation having a value DOT1 associated therewith. The method include a step of, for each horizontal line (1-m) within the first representation of a character and for each dot (1-j) within a horizontal line, determining a modifying value (DOT1k) associated with a dot(k) of the first representation, DOT1k being a function of DOT1 of the dot(k). The value (DOT2k) of a corresponding dot for the second representation is generated, the value of the corresponding dot being determined in accordance with the expression DOT2k = (( DOT1 - DOT1k ) + DOT1(k-1) ), where DOT1(k-1) is a modifying value of an adjacent dot on the horizontal line. The modifying value is preferably determined by a table look-up procedure within a table of previously generated values.

Abstract: Polymeric, thin oriented films can be made by use of a combination of a hot blown process and a blown bubble process, i.e. a double bubble process. The resulting film has use in replacing PVC for in store stretch wrap applications. Very low density polyethylene, VLDPE, is an especially preferred material for this process. It may be used as a monolayer, or as one layer of a multilayer structure. In practising the invention, the polymer is extruded and hot blown, and heated to a temperature above its orientation temperature. This heating can be accomplished by the use of a heated liquid reservoir or sock disposed at the lower end of the primary bubble, inside the bubble. The hot blown heated film is then passed through a first set of pinch rolls, re-inflated into a blown bubble, and collapsed at a second set of pinch rolls. Thin, tough and elastic packaging materials are obtained by this process.

Abstract: A radiographic test for a welded portion of a pipe provides an image of the welded portion including a weld defect image. It is introduced into a computer, noises are removed, a region of inspection is sampled, and the welding line portion is extracted (2, 3). The defect image is emphasized. An extraction process implements an automatic judgement of the defects. Based on statistic values pixels at the end of the welding line and the peripheral portion of defect emphasized image are modified to be consistent with the result of detection by the inspector. The knowledge of an inspector about irrelevant indications is formed as a database. Feature values of defects are compared with the database, for removing irrelevant indications. Feature values of images formed as one knowledge base (A, B, C), and the knowledge of an inspector formed into another knowledge base (D, E) are formed into certain rules, the image of a welded object is collated with these rules and the type of defect is inferred.

Abstract: A television receiver includes a "one-chip" television signal processing IC (200) which has a terminal for receiving a composite video signal including both image and synchronization pulse components. A composite video signal (105) which has been non-linearly processed by a so-called "black-stretch" circuit is coupled to the composite video signal input terminal of the "one-chip" IC. In order that a sync separator (100) of the "one-chip" IC (200) can reliably separate the synchronization pulses from the composite video signal after it has been non-linearly processed, a sync correction circuit (111), including an auxiliary sync separator (113), is used to modify the synchronization pulses of the composite video signal after it is non-linearly processed and before it is coupled to the "one-chip" television IC (200).
