Abstract: This invention describes methods and apparatus for the radial extraction and pattern recognition of image information based on ''back scatter'' produced by focused beam of energy such as those used in radar, sonar, and ultrasound. This invention includes methods for line and geometric pattern extraction and recognition from an image based on a pixel array. In the present invention, the information obtained from ''back scatter'' energy extracted and encoded by the radial extraction algorithms becomes determinants to be used either individually or in concert with each other depending upon the application and desired function. The line and geometric pattern algorithms can be used to process any type of image. These algorithms which extract and encode the patterns contained in the ''back scatter'' and geometric shapes contained in images are unique and provide an evaluation of various multidimensional aspects of groups of pixels in the resultant image. In addition, these algorithms are not based upon strict mathematical concepts but are rather translated to the computer in terms of bit strings which require very little processing time. The disclosed methods are designed for efficient image processing in real time on PC-type computer equipment.

Abstract: The invention provides a homogeneous, aqueous, cleaning composition which comprises surfactant and solvent, and is characterized in that it forms a solvent-water emulsion on evaporation of at least a portion of the solvent. In such systems the solvent system is selected such that it comprises: a first solvent component in an amount such that it is present at a level above the miscibility limit of that component with water, and, a second solvent component which is sufficiently volatile that, in use, it evaporates from the composition to leave a mixture of the first solvent component and water, said second solvent component being present at a level such that first solvent component is solubilised in the composition. By using the second solvent to assist in the solution of the first solvent it is possible to obtain compositions which are clear, stable, isotropic compositions. In use, the second, volatile solvent component evaporates from the overall composition and the remaining first solvent component and water phase-separate, thus forming an emulsion, whereby the cleaning action of the first solvent component is potentiated. The emulsion formed generally has a coarse dispersed phase. This yields the advantages of a stable non-emulsion product as regards storage, dosing and manufacture, employs a relatively low level of solvent and provides the cleaning benefits of a free-solvent system.

Abstract: In an electron source comprising a base plate and an electron emitting element disposed on the base plate, the electron emitting element includes a plurality of electron emitting portions electrically connected in parallel, the electrical connection being made through a thermally cut-off member. After forming the plurality of electron emitting portions, their electron emission characteristics are checked and, for that electron emitting portion on which the electron emission characteristic has been found not normal, the electrical connection is cut off. Alternatively, the electron emitting element includes an electron emitting portion connected to a voltage supply through a thermally cut-off member, and an electron emitting portion forming film which includes a thermally connecting member. In this case, after cutting off the electrical connection in that electron emitting portion on which the electron emission characteristic has been found not normal, the electron emitting portion forming film is connected to the voltage supply for forming another electron emitting portion in the film. With such an electron source and an image forming device using the electron source, a production yield and image quality are improved. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present patent, which is to be applied to automatic sewing machines or the like, consists of an equipment that positions and clamps a piece of cloth or the like on a base fabric through a jig-guide (13) (17) which moves automatically when a first seam has been sewn on the most external edge. In this way it is possible to sew further seams in the inner part of the first seam according to any preset pattern. The said jig-guide is coupled with a further device the purpose of which is the facilitation of the loading and positioning operations during which the pieces of cloth are to be loaded and positioned. In fact, such operations are carried out very easily and quickly through a load sliding plane (31) which is provided only with precise references and does not show any further mechanism which might hinder the insertion of the cloth. The sliding plane (31) moves on a fixed bed (32) since the edges of the first plane are bent downwards on the edges of the second plate and the first plane slides on the second plate through the intervention of a piston or the like (42). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Described are aqueous emulsions of active amino groups-displaying epoxide adduct hardeners for curing epoxy resin systems, which are obtained by converting an aqueous solution of a conventional hardener, which contains reactive amino groups and can emulsify the epoxy resin used for adduct formation, under increase of the amine-H-equivalent weight, to an emulsion by mixing with an epoxy resin having a functionality of 1,2-3,5. The viscosity generally is 5 to 40 Pa.s. The values lie on an emulsion viscosity curve with a rising and falling viscosity profile. The hardeners are especially suitable for curing aqueous epoxy resin systems and for application together with epoxy resins as additive for hydraulic binders such as cement.

Abstract: A process for upgrading plastic material containing inorganic filler or reinforcement material for use as feedstock in a partial oxidation gas generator for the production of raw synthesis gas, fuel gas, or reducing gas. The plastic material is granulated and partially liquefied by heating in a closed autoclave at a temperature in the range of about 400 DEG  F. to 495 DEG  F. and a pressure in the range of about 150 psig to 750 psig while the plastic material is in contact with a pumpable hydrocarbonaceous liquid solvent. A pumpable slurry is thereby produced comprising solubilized plastic, unsolubilized plastic, hydrocarbonaceous liquid solvent, separated inorganic material and unseparated inorganic material. After removing the separated inorganic material, the remainder of the slurry is then reacted by partial oxidation to produce said raw synthesis gas, fuel gas or reducing gas.

Abstract: The invention has its object to eliminate erroneous detection of earthenware and running water and exactly detects only hands in an automatic faucet which has a hand detecting sensor (S) and automatically starts and stops discharge of water. The sensor (S) has a light projector and a light receptor. The sensor (S) is adjusted in such a manner that a directional axis (d) of a region (detecting region) where a projecting region of the light projector and a light receiving region of the light receptor overlap intersects a discharge flow of water and an angle of intersection is constantly made equal to or smaller than 70 DEG  irrespective of an amount of water flow. A level of reflected light detected by the light receptor is periodically sampled so that a mean value and a dispersion value are calculated from the latest height lots of sample data. So, starting and stopping of discharge of water is controlled on the basis of the mean value and dispersion value. <IMAGE>
