Patent EP-0472859-A1 (EP)
Inventor: YAMADA TETSUO
IPC: H04N5/369
Filed: 1991-07-04
Abstract: There is disclosed a solid-state imaging device comprising: a column direction transfer section (60) arranged in parallel to photosensitive element trains, and capable of transferring, in column directions opposite to each other, signal charges produced in photosensitive elements; row direction transfer sections (50, 51) arranged on the both end sides of the column direction transfer section, respectively, and at least one transfer order conversion section (40) provided between the row direction transfer section on one side and the column direction transfer section. In this solid-state imaging device, there is employed a scheme such that the transfer direction of the transfer in a column direction (first field transfer) of signal charges produced from photosensitive pixels of the odd rows and the transfer direction of the transfer in a column direction (second field transfer) of signal charges produced from photosensitive pixels of the odd rows are caused to be opposite to each other, and that the transfer order is reversed by the transfer order conversion section on one side to output signal charges in a reversed transfer order. Transfer between row direction transfer devices is therefore not required.

Abstract: A high frequency amplifier contains a constant envelope signal generation circuit (21) for transforming an input signal to form two constant envelope signals where phases of the constant envelope signals correspond to an amplitude of an envelope of the input signal; two amplifying circuits (22, 23) for separately amplifying two constant envelope signals; and a power synthesizing circuit for synthesizing the first and second amplified signals to generate an amplified signal of the input electric signal, and reflecting remaining components of the first and second amplified signals which remaining components remain in the above synthesizing operation, toward the first and second amplifying circuits (22, 23). Further, an input impedance of the power synthesizing circuit may be controlled by shifting phases of the above reflected components by respectively predetermined amounts, or by adaptively shifting phases of the above reflected components responding to an input level, so that a total efficiency of the high frequency amplifier is maximized. The high frequency amplifier may contain, instead of the above two amplifying circuits (22, 23) and the power synthesizing circuit, a circuit for inverting a phase of one of the two constant envelope signals; and a single-ended push-pull amplifier circuit for receiving the other of the two constant envelope signals, and an output of the phase inversion circuit, and synthesizing the received signals to generate an amplified signal of the input electric signal.

Abstract: The invention concerns an hydraulic machine, typically a submerged surface cleaner which comprises a body (10) having a liquid inlet (12) and a liquid outlet (14) and a conduit extending between the inlet and the outlet. A drive element (18) is supported in or adjacent to the conduit, with a clearance between the drive element and the interior of the conduit, in a manner permitting eccentric location and rotation of the drive element relative to the conduit. The conduit can be connected in a liquid flow path so that liquid passing through the conduit past the drive element, when the drive element is positioned eccentrically relative to the conduit, applies differential forces to the drive element to cause it to rotate relative the conduit. The rotation of the drive element is used directly or indirectly to drive the cleaner over a submerged surface.

Abstract: An Electronic Accident Estimating System has been produced by integrating commercially available electronic hardware with proprietary software developed expressly for the estimating system. Electronic images of accidented vehicles are taken by the bodyshop estimator. These images are then imported to a computer by using a color video digitizer. The images, once resident in the computer, provide the visual evidence substantiating the estimated accident damage. The bodyshop estimator fills in the accident estimate on the computer, highlighting areas on the various images as required. Once the estimate is completed, the estimate file is compressed in size and transmitted electronically to the insurance company. At the insurance company, an insurance estimator then decompresses the estimate file and begins to peruse the estimate. If further clarification is required, the insurance estimator can request more images to be taken and transmitted. Execution of repairs can also be easily audited by the insurance company by simply requesting that images be taken during the repairs at specific repair milestones ( replacement of body panels, application of primer, etc. ) and transmitted to their office. The system also provides on-line archiving of accident estimates.

Abstract: Procédé de soudage à l'arc MAG servant à obtenir un cordon à forme d'onde régulière ou des cordons de soudure à forme en section appropriée, et appareil de mise en oeuvre dudit procédé. Selon le procédé, le courant de sortie d'une source de puissance de soudure est commuté entre un premier courant de soudure I1 et un second courant de soudure I2 supérieur au premier à une fréquence de commutation de F = 0,5 à 25 Hz. On peut ainsi faire varier la vitesse de fusion du fil afin d'établir en alternance une première longueur d'arc Lr supérieure à 2 mm et une seconde longueur d'arc Lr plus longue que la première, le rapport entre le second courant de soudure I2 et le premier courant de soudure I1 étant compris entre 1,03 et 1,20. En plus du procédé de soudure qui modifie la longueur de l'arc en commutant le courant de sortie de soudure sans augmenter ni diminuer la vitesse d'amenée de fil, on décrit un procédé et un appareil de soudure d'angle à recouvrement sans égard à la présence d'un écart important, c'est-à-dire pour obtenir un excédent de métal en augmentant de 5 à 20 % la vitesse d'amenée du fil et de compenser le manque de métal en fusion devant remplir l'écart.

Abstract: A process and a device for the biological conversion (composting) of organic waste materials, in particular from the catering sector, provide a treatment in at least two chambers (7, 8) which are separated from each other. In the first chamber (7), the waste materials which have been introduced are treated only until their conversion into biomass has progressed to a particular intermediate stage. Some of this partly converted material is then transferred into the second chamber (8) for final composting. Fresh waste materials which have been introduced into the first chamber (7) are treated together with the remainder of the partly converted material. Since the number of active microorganisms in the first chamber (7) is always high, the conversion process of the freshly introduced waste materials is started immediately. The heat-insulating housing (1), which contains the chambers (7, 8), is preferably rotatable about a horizontal axis (3) in a targetted, alternating manner so as to mix the material, and grinding gears (12, 12') are provided for fine comminution of the material. If desired, the composted material can be dried and/or sterilised in a third chamber. A couplable container unit (40) receives the material which has been composted in the second chamber (8). After having been removed from the treatment device, the container unit (40) can be combined with other such units to form a transport unit ready for removal by an HGV. The apparatus allows waste materials of the abovementioned type to be converted to biomass in a virtually continuous process within a shortened period of time, for example one to two days. <IMAGE>
