Abstract: An apparatus for vacuum absorption is provided which is quiet and simplified with maintaining an absorption power. The apparatus comprises: a tank for accumulating circulating water; a waterway for circulating the circulating water by a pump disposed at an absorption inlet side of the waterway and having an outlet disposed over the water surface of the circulating water in the tank; an aspirator disposed on the waterway; and a reverseflow prevention mechanism surrounding the outlet, having a small hole of the size to drain less volume of water than the volume flowing out of the outlet at the position sunk under the water, and comprising a buffer (hollow body) with drain windows at the position over the water surface. The apparatus serves to drain the circulating water into the water during the operation of the pump and to absorb air from the outlet into the vacuum vessel during the stoppage of the pump.

Abstract: A ligand-mediated immunofunctional assay (LIFA) method for detecting the presence and the concentration of polypeptide hormone binding proteins which comprises capturing the binding protein with a solid phase bound first antibody, saturating the bound hormone binding protein with the ligand polypeptide hormone, and detecting the bound ligand polypeptide hormone with a detectably labeled second antibody specific for the ligand polypeptide hormone. In the absence of added saturating polypeptide hormone, the LIFA measures the amount of hormone binding protein bound to the endogenous ligand polypeptide hormone. A growth hormone binding protein assay illustrates the method of the present invention. LIFA assay results indicate that increased binding protein substantially increases growth hormone activity. Methods of use and formulations of growth hormone binding protein, growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein are disclosed.

Abstract: A device for inserting weft in the shed of an air jet loom has a batten (10) which moves back and forth across the weft thread (18) run and, next the web, a reed comb (8) with first air channel (19) and, spaced on the batten, following its movement and connected to the loom's air source, a number of jet rods (25) which move in and out the shed. The weft, which is transported in the first air channel through the shed by the individual high pressure air jets, is held by means located at the channel exit. Here, each jet rod has a top part (45), i.e. an enclosed jet part (40) directed at the shed and shaped as a point (46) with ellipse cross-section, with at least one exit (43) in the first part (42) of its wall facing the first air channel where the exit is obliquely directed upwards w.r.t. its notional mid-axis (M) by a first angle,  alpha  and a plane in the weft direction by second angle,  alpha ', in the wall part (42). A guide piece, placed next weft exit point, has a second air channel connecting with the first to apply an additional stream of pressurised air to the weft end (18') till it is held extended against the web. Pref. the hollow jet rod comprises a first cylindrical part (30) merging into second conically-shaped part (35) and the jet part about 15 mm long (B). The second part, 3 mm long (A), tapers towards the narrow dimension of the ellipse of the jet part (40) and widens towards its greater dimension. The exit is located in the rod top part, length (C), so that a chamber (44) is formed by the top part and exit inner surfaces (45',43') while w.r.t. to its mid-axis (M) angle  alpha  is between 8 and 15 degrees and angle  alpha ' is between 4 and 10 degrees . Two wall parts (41', 42') slope together at the point and form resp. angles w.r.t. vertical,  beta  between 15 and 25, pref. 22 degrees and  beta ; between 40 and 50, pref. 48 degrees . Other claims relate to the construction of the air jet device to secure the weft thread.

Abstract: The multidimensional multi-valued color image compression and decompression method enables an image to be compressed and decompressed at a high efficiency, particularly in a system in which the pixel or frame correspondence is not guaranteed on both the compression and decompression sides. In the method, a specific luminance boundary is obtained by tracing a pixel contour for each specific luminance threshold previously determined for an image luminance function; the specific equi-luminance line passing-point coordinates are shifted to a central position of each of the pixels for constituting the obtained specific luminance boundary; the feature points satisfying a specific condition are obtained on the specific equi-luminance line; and the positions and the luminance values at the image feature points are transmitted or recorded as information obtained by compressing the original image information at a high efficiency, in order to restore an image by decompression. Further, on the decompression side of the image reproduction, the bright region whose boundary is determined by the equi-luminance line is marked by a bright symbol, and the dark region whose boundary is determined by the equi-luminance line is marked by a dark symbol, both for each luminance threshold for obtaining a specific equi-luminance line, so that a binary mask can be formed by the bright and dark symbols; the equi-luminance line is approximated into a polygonal shape; and the luminance values at the pixels other than the feature points are decided on the basis of the interpolation plane decided by a plurality of feature points locating in the vicinity of the equi-luminance line polygonal-approximated by the lines connecting the feature points.

Abstract: In a speech synthesis method and apparatus, a speech having an excellent property is synthesized while reducing the amount of calculation for generating the synthesized speech. In addition, by allowing the user to operate parameters in the frequency region, the tone of the synthesized speech can be changed by processing which is easy to understand for the user and which is simple for the apparatus. For that purpose, the apparatus includes a character-series input unit (1) for inputting a character series, serving as a phonetic text, a parameter generation unit (3) for generating power spectrum envelopes from the character series as parameters, and a waveform generation unit (9) for generating pitch waveforms from the pitch of the speech and the parameters. The pitch waveforms are generated by performing matrix calculation as shown in FIG. 6.

Abstract: The interprocess communications subsystem (IPC) of the microkernel, manages the message passing operations for the communication of control information and data between tasks. Every message sent from a sending task to a destination, receiving task must use the IPC subsystem to manage its transmission. The separation of transmission control information from the data portion of the message allows the performance of the message passing process to be linked to the relative complexity of the message to be transferred between two tasks. The transmission control information of a message is parsed only once and is copied, at most, only once in its sequential path from the sending task to the IPC subsystem, and then from the IPC subsystem to the destination task. If the message cannot be transmitted, for example because of processor resource exhaustion, a time out expiration, or insufficient port rights, then processor time is not wasted in the abortive transfer of the data portion of the message. In this manner, every message is required to interact with the IPC subsystem to bring order and predictability to interprocess communications in a busy, multitasking system, and yet the performance of the system is maximized.
