Patent EP-0982420-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HORTER HANSJUERGEN DIPL-ING
IPC: D03C3/40
Filed: 1999-07-03
Abstract: A coupling device for the releasable connection of a lifting element, in particular of a jacquard machine, to at least one lifting element of a warp thread in a weaving machine. The preferred coupling device connects a sinker cord of a jacquard machine to a harness cord of the harness of a weaving machine. The coupling device has a first coupling part assigned to the lifting element and a second coupling part assigned to the harness cord. The coupling parts execute a radial relative movement during coupling and uncoupling. The coupling device provides for rotational alignment of the two coupling parts with one another. At least one coupling part is assigned or capable of being assigned a rotational alignment mechanism. The coupling device is used in a system which rapidly connects and disconnects many connectors at the same time. The system includes a positioning mechanism for vertically moving two positioning elements which operate the coupling devices between standby and operative positions, and for horizontally moving at least one of the positioning elements to cause the coupling parts of each coupling device to interlock and disengage. The positioning elements also cooperate with portions of at least one of the coupling parts to rotationally align the coupling parts so they may interlock.

IPC: H03D7/00

Abstract: A frequency mixing system (10) provides an expanded dynamic range
when compared to the dynamic range(s) of an individual mixer(s) (16) that make up the
arrangement. The frequency mixing system uses a feed-forward arrangement to reduce
the distortion emanating from a single mixer (16) due to a signal power level which
would result in a frequency converted signal outside the dynamic range of the mixer.
For example, the frequency mixing system splits an input signal onto a first path (12)
and a second path (14). On the first path, a first mixer frequency (16) mixes the signal
to produce a frequency converted signal with distortion (S 1  + D), such as
intermodulation distortion. On the second path, the amplitude of the signal is attenuated
(by 18), then frequency mixed by a second mixer (20) to produce a frequency converted
signal (S 1 ) with a low and/or insignificant level of distortion. The first mixer element
produces a frequency converted signal with distortion because the signal on the first
path enters the first mixer at a power level resulting in a frequency converted signal
outside the dynamic range of the first mixer. As such, the higher power level of the
signal into the first mixer creates distortion that emanates from the first mixer along
with the frequency converted signal. Since the attenuated signal on the second path
enters the second mixer at a lower power level resulting in a frequency converted signal
within the dynamic range of the second mixer, the second mixer produces the frequency
converted signal with the low and/or insignificant level of distortion. After the signals
on the first and second paths are frequency converted, the frequency converted signal
and distortion are coupled from the first path and combined with the frequency
converted signal on the second path, producing the distortion (D) as the prominent
signal on the second path. The distortion on the second path is then combined with the
frequency converted signal and distortion on the first path to cancel (at 21) the
distortion on the first path and produce the desired frequency converted signal with
reduced distortion as compared to the distortion produced if the original input signal
would be frequency converted using only the first mixer.

Abstract: A color data converting method of converting color
data for image display of a wide gamut (color
reproducing range) into color data for printing of a
narrow gamut, comprising:
   a virtual gamut obtaining step, in which,
lightness, saturation, and/or hue angle of a second
gamut (42) is converted and an expanded virtual gamut
including at least all of the lightness values of a
first gamut (40) is obtained. In a color data changing
step, for color data which is not included in the
virtual gamut (44) in color data of the first gamut,
the lightness, saturation, and hue angle are changed,
thereby obtaining third color data included in the
virtual gamut (44). In a color data forming step, a
conversion opposite to the conversion performed on the
second gamut (42) in the virtual gamut obtaining step
is executed to the third color data, thereby forming
second color data.
