Title: Keyed, true-transparency image information combine
Inventor: TRYTKO DAVID E
IPC: H04N5/272
Filed: 1992-02-05
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE       The disclosed keyed, true-transparency combine and keyer receive a plurality of image information signals Vi, each having a corresponding input key signal Bkj, over a respective channel. The image signals can be dynamically ranked in a defined prioritized order, even on a field-by-field basis. However, rather than switch the individual image signals as their prioritized order changes, the order of the channels is dynamically and switchably interchanged within a keyer means by switchably interchanging a plurality of substantially identical keyer units while generating a plurality ofprocessed true transparency image key signals Pki. The keyer units are substantially identical in the sense that, while there may be some structural distinctions among the keyer units, there is a commonality of function among the keyer units within a keyer means. The keyer means also generates any needed processed background key signals PkB. The respective keyer units are switchably changeable to produce true transparency processed key signals, which are generated such that processed key signal Pki for an i-th channel is produced by the i-th respective one of the plurality of substantially identical keyer units within the keyer means. The i-th keyer unit is adapted to modify the value of its input key signal Bkj with the values of the input key signals Bkj in the higher priority channels to generate a true transparency processed key signal Pki for the i-th priority channel. A keyer unit within the keyer means generates the true transparency processed image key signal Pki for the i-th image signal so that:                             where B0 = 0 and so that Pk1 + Pk2 + ... + PkN + Pkg = 1Ø The combiner also cuts each respective image signal Vi and background signal VB by its respective processed key signal and combines the plurality of cut signals to generate the special video effect of an image information combine VC so that VC = Pk1 V1 + Pk2 V2 + ... + PkN VN + PkBVB.

Title: Surgical gown with ultrasonically bonded t-bar ties
Inventor: RAMIREZ EMMA G
IPC: A41H43/00
Filed: 1993-03-26
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE      Disclosed herein is a surgical gown and tie assembly which, due to the nature of its construction, has increased resistance to tearing.  Conventional surgical and hospital gowns often use one or more pairs of ties to close and/or secure  the  garment  about  the  body  of  the  wearer. Generally, these ties are each attached to the gown at one end so that when the ties are extended away from the surgical gown, the tie forms a "L" configuration with the short  length of the  "L"  being the portion of the tie attached to the surgical gown and the longer length of the "L" being the portion used to tie or secure the gown about the wearer.  Such "L"-shaped configurations of ties tend to tear at the juncture of the long and short lengths of the "L" thereby creating a hole in the surgical gown which shortens its useful  life and compromises the sometimes sterile nature of the gown.  The gown and tie assembly of the present invention employs a generally "T"-shaped tie that distributes the pulling forces more uniformly across the short section of the "T" when forces are applied to the longer portion of the tie.

Title: Valve control apparatus
Inventor: EDWARDS JEFFREY C
IPC: E21B23/00
Filed: 1991-09-30
Abstract: The present invention provides a novel valve arrangement that enables the opening and closing of the test string circulation valve, and - when the valve is closed - the opening and closing of the tubing isolating valve, as many times as desired. To attain this end a number of arrangement are em-ployed: 1) the use of a 3-slot indexer to control the operation of a tool, the slot being in the form of two closed loop tracks (one laying within the other, with a common part), the two tracks controlling two different tool mode op-erations; 2) the operation of a multimode tool by a succession of annulus pressure pulses, wherein an initial operation is effected by pressure changes of a first pulse, and the operation following the subsequent pressure change is effected slowly so that, if a second pulse occurs within a given time (from the preceding pulse), the mode of the tool is altered and a third pulse thereof-ter causes a different operation to be initiated; 3) the use of two separate J-slot indexers, each in the form of a closed loop track, to control tool opera-tion, one J-slot indexer controlling the movement of a first operating member connected to and driving a second operating member the movement of which is controlled by the other J-slot indexer.

Title: Process and apparatus for the temporary storage of flexible metal strip
Inventor: GRAEFE MICHAEL
IPC: B21C37/08
Filed: 1993-04-06
Abstract: PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR THE TEMPORARY STORAGE             OF FLEXIBLE METAL STRIP     ABSTRACT OF DISCLOSURE      This invention relates to a process for the intermediate storage of a flexible metal strip in a spiral strip buffer, and to a spiral strip buffer for the performance of the process, in which the innermost turn of the strip standing on one edge wound into a spiral is guided past and over the other windings in a spiral fashion by means of a deflector apparatus.  To create the most economical process and apparatus possible, in which a long take-off twist trough is unnecessary and the entire spiral strip buffer can be made significantly smaller and flatter, the invention proposes that the strip, while being guided in a spiral fashion in the vicinity of the innermost turn, makes a gradual transition from its vertical position to a horizontal position.  The spiral strip buffer is thereby designed so that the deflector apparatus for the spiral guidance of the strip consists of several sized or grooved rollers which are in contact with the strip on the inside and outside of the innermost turn.
