Abstract: An apparatus for sheet (21) removal and transport from a stack (22) has an endless perforated toothed belt (1) circulating about a return wheel (8) and a suction wheel (7), the latter having vacuum connection line (14) openings which align with the perforation in the belt. The novelty is that (a) engagement of the teeth of the belt and the suction wheel is ensured by two toothed rings which extend from the peripheral edges of the suction wheel towards a central ridge which forms a peripheral guide path with the vacuum connection line openings; (b) only the belt edges, in the region of the suction wheel toothed rings, are provided with teeth in the form of two toothed rings separated by a guide face, which contacts the guide path of the suction wheel, so that the belt perforations align with the vacuum connection line openings; (c) the perforations are located in grooves which correspond to the tooth spacing and which are formed in a friction material layer on the belt side opposite its toothed side; and (d) a guide block (11) is positioned immediately after the suction wheel in the belt travel direction and has a guide path (23) for contacting the guide face of the belt. Preferably, the friction material layer consists of polyurethane or rubber.

Abstract: An electrophotographic printer apparatus for printing a
color image is provided with a receptive layer for recording an
electrostatic latent image and a developer unit for applying the
toners of a number of colors to the electrostatic latent image.
Also provided are an intermediate transfer medium to which toner
images formed in a layered form on the receptive layer are
transferred, and a power supply for applying a difference in
potential between the intermediate transfer medium and the
receptive layer. Further provided are a current detector for
detecting a value of an electric current flowing across the

transfer unit for transferring the toner image formed on the
intermediate transfer medium to a recording medium. Furthermore,
a main controller is provided for effecting control in setting
the potential difference between the intermediate transfer
medium and the receptive layer to V1, in obtaining a current value
I1 from the current detector when a toner layer is not present
between the intermediate transfer medium and the receptive layer,

the toner layer is present between the intermediate transfer
medium and the receptive layer, and in optimally correcting
operating conditions of an image-forming element by determining
characteristics of the toner layer on the basis of a difference
between the current value I1 and the current value IX.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for pattern matching encoding are
disclosed. A font bit map library (11) is provided separately
from a temporary updating library (6), in which
temporary bit map pattern data (TBMD) capable of being
updated according to a character pattern cut out from input
binary image data is stored. In the font bit map library
(11) is stored font bit map library pattern data (FBMD) of
an input character pattern font or a font designated by the
user. A pattern matching process on the character pattern,
is executed by comparing the character pattern with temporary
bit map pattern data (TBMD) and font bit map pattern
data (FBMD). The character pattern is newly registered in
the temporary updating library (6), when it is judged as
being matched with only the temporary bit map pattern
(TBMD) or as being matched with neither of the temporary
bit map pattern (TBMD) or the font bit map pattern (FBMD).
It is possible to improve data compressibility without
sacrifice in image quality.

Abstract: The bobbin has a core (10) with one stiff and smooth end flange (11) and a flexible and folding flange (12) at the other end. The material of the folding flange at the bobbin core (10) is stiffer at the core opening zone (120) where it is not folded than the outer folding zone (122), with a cross section reducing towards the circumference by at least 10% and preferably 25% or more from the centre (120), to give a zone which can be folded over. The gap (100) between the centre zone (120) of the flexible bobbin wall (12) and the stiff bobbin wall (11) gives the space for winding the material round the bobbin core (10). Also claimed is a bobbin winding action where a number of bobbins are assembled together on a shaft. When the open winding zone (100) has been wound, the folding zone (122) of the flexible side wall (12) is folded over round the wound filament, covering it as far as the stiff side wall (11). The wound filament between the walls (11,12) is firmly clamped in place, and the wound bobbins are separated.

Abstract: The present invention describes a system and method for ascertaining
and displaying connection-related performance data in
networks, in particular in the application area of WWW applications,
such as web browsers for example. It is based on the
technical feasibility of expanding HTML documents retrospectively
to include performance data, such as loading speed or
time, and integrating these into the layout of the document
referenced. In this process the performance data can be expanded
in a proxy, which adds a loading speed or time to be expected
to the document to be forwarded. However, functionality
of this kind does not have to remain limited to this embodiment.
Any supplementing of an HTML document with information of
this kind (e.g. web browser) satisfies the fundamental idea of
the present invention.
