Patent CA-2585375-C (CA)
Inventor: KARIM KARIM S
IPC: H04N5/335
Filed: 2005-10-20
Granted: 2014-04-08
Abstract: The present invention provides digital imaging architectures comprising detectors coupled to readout circuitry, wherein the readout circuitry is capable of providing large amplification to small, noise sensitive input signals to improve their noise immunity, as well as capable of providing a fast pixel readout time. The readout circuitry comprises an on-pixel amplification transistor as well as additional transistors used to read out the amplified signal and/or to reset the amplified output signal stored by a portion of the circuit prior to reading a subsequent signal. The present invention also provides readout circuitry that is capable of providing large amplification and thus additional noise immunity to the input signal from the detector by implementing another amplification stage within the readout circuitry. The readout circuitry can function in particular modes, the use of which can depend on characteristics of the input signals transferred to the readout circuitry from the detectors, or can depend on the characteristics of the output signal required from the readout circuitry.

Title: Method and device for producing molded portions of meat from whole cuts of natural meat
Inventor: GRONEBERG-NIENSTEDT PETRA
IPC: A23L13/40
Filed: 2007-02-20
Granted: 2014-09-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing molded portions of meat from whole cuts of meat, comprising the following steps: introducing the cuts of meat into a processing line, sorting out those cuts of meat whose weight is below a required weight, cutting the cuts of meat whose weight is above a required weight, and selecting those cuts of meat whose weight corresponds to a required weight, freezing the selected cuts of meat to give portions of meat and molding these portions of meat by placing them in or forcing them into or forcing them into and punching them in a mold to give the molded portions of meat. Known processes are problematic in that too many unusable cuts are produced in the process if the portion or portions are to be produced from a single cut. The invention minimizes this problem by carrying out weight control and shape control in separate steps. The method according to the invention is characterized by essentially less restrictions regarding the shape of the meat portions during weight control and/or a substantially increased flexibility of the design of the three-dimensional final shape.
