Date Mar. 21, 1991.A method for estimating motion which calculates a priori for a current image a first field of motion for blocks of a first level resulting from a partition of the image into blocks of a so-called maximum size, on the basis of a symmetric estimation algorithm, using the preceding and following images in the sequence to calculate the displaced inter-raster differences. Then, a second field of motion for blocks resulting from the partition of a block of the first level are calculated, and so on until a level of blocks of a minimum size. The final field of motion results from the selection of the most suited motion vectors from those of the various levels and is directly associated with a quadtree coding tree. Such a method finds particular application to image transmission chains, and in particular high-definition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of building products (elements) and mortar application compositions from clay-like raw materials. The object of the invention is a reduction in the bulk of the equipment and in the energy consumption. According to Figure 1, two types of small grains (granules) of clay, limestone and coal are granulated by the granulators (21), (22), which grains are caused by the said coal to burn at different temperatures in a device (31), which is characterised in that it has no lining (cladding). The burnt product is moistened and stirred up, whereupon bricks are formed in a press (49) and treated in an autoclave or in a steaming chamber (51). The brick produced in this way has pleasing aesthetic properties. A Portland cement with additives can be produced in the device (31) without cladding.

Abstract: Under normal atmospheric conditions, a uniform green covering layer, the so-called patina, forms on inclined copper surfaces only after exposure to the weather for many years. There has long been a desire to effect preweathering of the surface of semifinished products consisting of copper in the works on a large industrial scale, closely simulating the natural green patination. The method according to the invention for producing an artificial green protective and covering layer comprises first roughening the surface of degreased strip or sheet in a controlled manner by a mechanical treatment. In a further step of the method, the roughened surface of the strip or sheet is then treated in continuous flow with a suitable chemical reaction solution for green patination. After the chemical treatment, the strip or sheet is stored in its final dimensions for some time in an air-conditioned room.

Abstract: L'invention décrit un appareil de respiration fournissant des impulsions de gaz respirable à un patient; l'appareil comprend une entrée de gaz (10) pouvant se relier à une source de gaz respirable, une sortie (37) à connecter pour fournir du gaz au patient, un passage d'écoulement du gaz (14, 15, 34, 36) située dans le passage d'écoulement du gaz pour interrompre le débit de gaz vers la sortie, un régulateur (38) situé dans le passage d'écoulement en aval de la soupape principale, un réservoir de gaz (42) et un conduit pourvu d'une soupape (40, 44) connecté pour alimenter le réservoir en gaz depuis la partie du passage d'écoulement située entre la soupape principale et le régulateur; la soupape principale comprend un piston (24) pouvant coulisser à l'intérieur d'un cylindre (22) pour ouvrir et fermer le passage d'écoulement de gaz, ledit piston étant centré dans un sens par un élément élastique (28) et centré dans l'autre sens par la pression du gaz à l'intérieur du réservoir. Quand la soupape principale est ouverte et que le gaz s'écoule depuis la source vers le patient, le gaz s'infiltre dans le réservoir le long du conduit pourvu d'une soupape (40, 44), augmentant de ce fait la pression dans le réservoir (42); ceci continue jusqu'à ce que la pression dans le réservoir soit suffisante pour commander le ressort (28) quand le piston se déplace pour fermer le passage d'écoulement du gaz. Le gaz peut s'infiltrer dans le passage d'écoulement par l'intermédiaire du conduit pourvu d'une soupape (40, 44) jusqu'à ce que la pression dans le réservoir tombe à un niveau qui permet au ressort d'actionner le piston pour rouvrir le passage d'écoulement.

La tête de lecture centrale comporte des fentes (40, 42) des deux côtés de sa région de transduction (28) destinées à racler l'air et les débris entraînés de la bande. Chaque tête d'écriture ne comporte qu'une seule fente (44, 46) destinée à effectuer un raclage, située à l'extérieur de l'espace transductique d'écriture. Lors de la lecture et de l'écriture simultanées se déroulant pendant un fonctionnement bidirectionnel, l'action de raclage a lieu avant que la bande n'atteigne l'espace transductique d'écriture actif. Après que la bande soit passée sur la tête d'écriture et sur la tête de lecture, elle approche, dans une courbe douce, une partie dépourvue de fente de la seconde tête d'écriture, et l'air entraîné provoque le décollement de la bande sans qu'elle ne vienne au contact de la surface d'écriture inactive.
