Inventor: VAN DIJK HARRIE
IPC: B41F35/04
Filed: 2005-10-12
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of cleaning and keeping clean an inking unit (1) of a printing device, in which for cleaning the successive inking rollers (7,8) of the inking unit (1), a cleaner is applied onto a first part of the inking rollers, and after complete or partial cleaning of the first part, cleaner is applied on a further part of the inking rollers. 
     Thus, it is achieved that the rollers (7,8) always have enough grip between them for being able to continue driving them during cleaning. The invention also provides for that the fine haze that can arise during normal operation of the inking unit, but also during cleaning thereof, is extracted.

Abstract: The procedure consists of preparing a deposition or reaction chamber (1) before introducing a substrate on which a compound that does not contain oxygen, e.g. silicon nitride, is deposited, withdrawing the substrate and cleaning the chamber with a plasma. The preparation stage uses a conditioning compound containing at least one oxygen atom, such as SiO 2, that reacts with at least one inner wall of the chamber to form a protective layer that avoids the formation of a parasite deposit. The chamber has at least one wall made from aluminium and/or an aluminium alloy, and the cleaning plasma is of a fluorinated compound such as tetrafluoromethane.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to improve quality of images that may be blurred or
underexposed (e.g., because of camera shake, taken in dim lighting conditions, or
taken of high action scenes). The techniques may be implemented in a digital
camera, digital video camera, or a digital camera capable of capturing video. In
one described implementation, a digital camera includes an image sensor, a
storage device, and a processing unit. The image sensor captures two images from
a same scene which are stored on the storage device. The processing unit enhances
the captured images with luminance correction.

Abstract: A ring binder mechanism for retaining loose-leaf pages includes a housing, two hinge plate, and rings. The housing supports the hinge plates for pivoting motion relative to the housing. Ring members of the rings are resiliently clamped to the hinge plates for conjoint movement with the pivoting hinge plates to move between an open position in which pages may be added or removed from the rings and a closed position in which pages are retained by the rings. The ring members are also pivotable about an axis generally perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the housing relative to the hinge plates between an upright configuration in which pages can be retained on the ring members and a collapsed configuration in which the ring mechanism can be stored or shipped.

Filed: 2005-02-24
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système d'imagerie à résonance magnétique utilisant une image tomodensimétrique corps entier, à basse résolution, du corps d'un patient. L'exploitation de cette image permet de recueillir une pluralité d'informations sur le corps, ce qui est essentiel pour l'optimisation des paramètres d'acquisition en vue d'obtenir une image à grande résolution et de haute qualité d'une région d'intérêt du corps. De plus, l'image de tomodensimétrie corps entier s'utilise pour faciliter la détermination et la sélection d'une région d'intérêt par l'opérateur. L'imagerie par résonance magnétique constitue en outre un moyen efficace pour identifier des parties spécifiques du corps, voire tel ou tel organe d'un patient. La mise à disposition de la totalité de l'information susceptible d'être extraite de l'image de tomodensimétrie corps entier simplifie grandement la tâche de l'opérateur en lui permettant de travailler de manière intuitive. Pendant l'acquisition de l'image de tomodensimétrie corps entier de basse résolution, on établit des paramètres d'étalonnage nécessaires à l'acquisition de l'image haute résolution finale.

Patent EP-1749283-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NOLAN JAMES B
IPC: G06K7/00
Filed: 2005-04-14
Abstract: L'invention concerne un transpondeur à entrée sans clé distante bidirectionnelle (RKE) comprenant une extrémité frontale analogique (AFE) ayant un filtre d'activation  programmable qui prédéfinit le rythme de la forme d'onde du signal d'entrée souhaité, l'exigence de profondeur de modulation minimale du signal d'entrée, et la réduction de gain de canal à commande indépendante de chacun de ses trois canaux X, Y et Z. Les paramètres du filtre d'activation sont la longueur des durées haute et basse des impulsions d'activation qui peuvent être programmées dans un registre de configuration. Le filtre d'activation permet à l'extrémité AFE d'émettre des données démodulées si le signal d'entrée satisfait aux exigences liées au filtre d'activation sinon il n'émet pas les données démodulées. La broche de sortie AFE est généralement connectée à un dispositif externe de commande, tel qu'un microcontrôleur (MCU). Le dispositif externe reste généralement en mode veille-faible consommation d'énergie (ou veille) lorsque l'extrémité AFE n'a pas de sortie et commute en mode d activation-haute consommation d'énergie (ou actif) lorsque l'extrémité AFE a une sortie. Ainsi pour conserver le dispositif de commande externe en mode veille-faible consommation d'énergie lorsqu'il n'y a pas de signal d'entrée souhaité, il est nécessaire de ne conserver aucune sortie sur la broche de sortie AFE. Cela peut être réalisé par la commande des paramètres du filtre d'activation, une exigence liée à la profondeur de modulation minimale du signal d'entrée et des gains de canaux du dispositif AFE. Ces caractéristiques peuvent réduire la fausse activation du transpondeur RKE bidirectionnel due à des signaux d'entrées indésirables tels que des signaux de bruit.

Abstract: A control system for a spark-ignition type engine, capable of allowing an operating range capable of performing a compression-ignition operation to be extended to a higher load operating range to provide enhanced fuel economy in the higher load operating range and achieve the compression-ignition operation in a wider operating range. An intake-air temperature T is maintained at a relatively high value in a low load-side operating range D 0 , D 1 . When an engine load exceeds a given low-load threshold, the intake-air temperature T is lowered to extend the compression-ignition operation to a high load-side operating range D 2 . In the low load-side operating range having low combustion stability, the intake-air temperature T can be maintained at a relatively high value to prevent the occurrence of misfiring. In addition, in the high load-side operating range, the intake-air temperature T is lowered along with an increase in engine load to provide slower combustion which is advantageous to anti-knocking.
