Patent EP-0798305-A1 (EP)
Inventor: OONISHI YUTAKA
IPC: A61Q7/00
Filed: 1996-10-17
Abstract: Disclosed herein are a highly purified tocopheryl phosphate and/or a salt thereof (tocopheryl phosphates) wherein a P,P'- bistocopheryl hypophosphate and/or a salt thereof (P,P'-bistocopheryl diphoshates) is contained in a proportion of not higher than 3% by weight; a process for producing a highly purified tocopheryl phosphate and/or a salt thereof, which comprises the steps of reacting a tocopherol with an oxyphosphorus trihalide followed by treating with an acid or basic aqueous solution to thereby form tocopheryl phosphates (i) in which P,P'-bistocopheryl diphoshates (ii) formed as by-products are contained, hydrolyzing the P,P'-bistocopheryl diphoshates (ii) under acid condition, and, optionally, rendering the hydrolyzate neutral or basic under basic condition; and a method of analyzing tocopheryl phosphates, comprising analyzing a sample containing components (i) and (ii) with the use of a high-performance liquid chromatograph column packed with a gel of a polymethacrylate having, bonded thereto, long-chain alkyl groups. None or only an extremely minute amount of P,P'-bistocopheryl diphoshates are contained in the highly purified tocopheryl phosphates, so that the highly purified tocopheryl phosphates exhibit antioxidant and blood circulation promoting effects, have excellent water solubility, are powdery so that the handling thereof is extremely easy, are free from cutaneous irritation and allergenecity and ensure dermal safety. Therefore, the highly purified tocopheryl phosphates are useful as cosmetic ingredients. The amounts of components (i) and (ii) can be simply measured with high accuracy by the above method.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire wherein at least one circumferential groove extending in a tire circumferential direction is disposed on a tread surface and transverse grooves extending in a tire width-wise direction are disposed at a predetermined pitch in the tire circumferential direction in such a manner as to define a large number of blocks by the circumferential groove and transverse grooves. The kinds of lengths of the pitches determined by the transverse grooves are mutually different and at least 5, and a ratio Pa/Pe of the maximum pitch length Pa to the minimum pitch length Pe among these pitches is 1.5 to 1.8. In each pair of adjacent pitches, a ratio of the greater pitch length to the smaller pitch length (greater pitch length/smaller pitch length) is not greater than 1.4, the mean value X as the sum of these ratios (greater pitch length/smaller pitch length) throughout the full tire circumference satisfies the relation 1.1 ≤ X ≤ 1.3.

Abstract: The method involves feeding the digital signal to more than one path (3,5,7; 4,6,8,10) for conversion. The signal is amplified before conversion and is attenuated after conversion in at least one of the paths. The output signal Is selected from one of the paths using a predefined criterion. For amplification the least significant bit is shifted to the most significant bit position. The digital amplification and the analogue attenuation are performed using the same factor. The signal from one path is output after applying a defined delay.

Abstract: In an image processing method, an image is read by an image processing apparatus such as a digital copying machine and the read image is divided into blocks composed of a plurality of picture elements. Thereafter, interpolation is performed on a target picture element so that the image is scaled. Then, in the above image processing method, region segmentation data, which represent possibilities of characters, photographs and mesh dots of the target picture element of the image, are detected in a region segmentation section of the image processing apparatus, and the interpolated picture element data of the target picture element are computed by a variable scaling section according to an equation in which density of a plurality of adjacent picture elements in the vicinity of the target picture element are inputted. At this time, a weights of the density of each adjacent picture element in the equation is adjusted based upon the result detected by the region segmentation means. As a result, even if characters, photographs and mesh dots coexist in an image read by a scanner, the image is scaled according to the characters, photographs and mesh dots, thereby preventing deterioration in image quality.

Abstract: Dans cette invention, les gousses et épis intacts sont d'abord transportés axialement vers une zone de battage inclinée (16). Les grains libérés tombent à travers un tamis (24) formant le fond de la zone de battage. La majeure partie des matières légères et de la balle est emportée vers une sortie (32) par un flux d'air produit par un ventilateur. Les grains et une petite quantité de balle traversant le tamis (24) sont recueillis dans une auge (34) sous le tamis. Un flux d'air additionnel (37), produit par un ventilateur, emporte la majorité de la balle restante vers la sortie (32). La majeure partie des grains glisse dans l'auge (34) vers la sortie (36). Le restant du grain n'entraînant pratiquement pas de balle, sort de l'auge par la sortie auxiliaire (39) pour grains. Des chicanes transversales en tandem (29, 27) et opposées provoquent une turbulence de l'air qui favorise le passage du grain par la sortie (39), au détriment de la balle. Une opération finale de nettoyage peut être effectuée dans un appareil de nettoyage (112).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant d'enduire d'une composition de peinture en poudre un substrat tel que du carton ou du papier. Ce procédé consiste d'abord à charger les particules de peinture en poudre par friction ou induction en présence de particules magnétiques ou non magnétiques. Le procédé consiste ensuite à transporter les particules de peinture en poudre puis, soit à les appliquer sur le substrat, soit à les appliquer sur un support de transfert. Le transfert sur le substrat se fait grâce à un champ électrique entre le substrat, et, suivant le cas, le support de transfert ou l'organe de transport. Le procédé consiste enfin à faire cuire ou fondre la composition de peinture en poudre jusqu'à obtenir un revêtement de peinture, les particules de peinture en poudre prenant pour base les particules solides d'un liant durcissable par rayonnement. Le substrat est préférentiellement du papier ou du carton.

Abstract: Receivers and methods for receiving transmitted symbols are disclosed in which techniques are applied to jointly combat fading, time dispersion, and interference that is correlated in both space and time. These objects are accomplished by, for example, providing an inverse impairment correlation sequence estimate to the branch metric processor in addition to a channel estimate. The branch metric processor can then use this additional information to provide branch metrics that take into account the time correlation of impairment to improve the symbol hypotheses.
