Abstract: An arrangement for displaying characters and/or graphics on the screen of a television system including a brightness control section (23) for controlling the black level of video images includes a character blanking section (79) for blanking behind the video image so as to make the characters and/or graphics more visible. The character blanking section is coupled to the brightness control section for generating an "ultra-black" character blanking level which tracks, but is slightly greater (in the black direction) than the black level for the video image.

Abstract: A microprocessor controlled wrapping machine including a separate SCR drive (62) driving a corresponding permanent magnet motor (60), wherein an incremental optical encoder (64) is coupled with each permanent magnet motor to provide a feedback signal indicative of motor position to a microprocessor. Both a main motor (56), which drives the infeed conveyor (34) and the cutting head assembly, and a finwheel motor (40) are used in combination with the SCR drive (62) and an incremental optical encoder (64) to provide a low cost alternative to a servo amplifier-controlled motor drive. Both the finwheel motor and the main motor are independently controlled from one another as a function of an oscillator, which forms a portion of the microprocessor circuit, and as a function of input switches and the respective feedback signal provided by the respective incremental optical encoder. The present invention provides a low cost alternative to wrapping machines incorporating expensive servo amplifier-controlled motor drives. Using an incremental optical encoder, the associated motor speed can be precisely controlled.

Abstract: Wiping and capping method and apparatus for use with an inkjet printer (100) are described. The apparatus includes a sled (503) that is mounted to a printer's chassis (501). Caps (702a) and wipers (703a) can be mounted on the sled (503) for each of the printer's movable carriage-mounted printheads. The sled (503) and the chassis (501) are cam-coupled for controlled, relative movement therebetween. The sled (503) and the carriage (102) are also cam-coupled for controlled, relative movement therebetween. Movement of the carriage (102) produces slight vertical and lateral movement of the sled (503) out of its nominal position to place it in three primary positions relative to the carriage (102): an elevated position for capping the printheads, an intermediate position for wiping the printheads and a lowered position for free reciprocal movement of the carriage (102) without interference between the printheads and either the caps (702a) or the wipers (703a). The sled (503) is mounted to ensure constant capping force between the caps (702a) and their corresponding printheads. The invented method involves uncapping the printheads, wiping the printheads uni-directionally, lowering the sled (503) to its free position beneath the printheads, optionally re-wiping the printheads repeatedly, and returning the printheads to their capped position. The method and apparatus are compatible with automatic failure recovery techniques to unclog printheads, including spitting and priming. The structure according to the invention can be easily and quickly assembled and disassembled by a method according to the invention.

Abstract: A stamped hardened sheet steel tapered ferrule (26) with cantilevered radially resilient fingers (50) is wedged by a spring (28) against a tapered bore (18) of a hardened steel housing (12). The fingers bend radially inwardly to grip a stranded steel cable (32) in the ferrule bore in response to the spring action. When the cable is slid in the ferrule in one direction, the ferrule (26) gripping the cable is further wedged against the tapered bore (18) and further grips the cable (32). The cable is released when it is slid in the opposite direction pulling the engaged ferrule away from the tapered bore of the housing. The cable has a flag (36) at one end which with the seal lock a hasp (38) therebetween limiting the relative motion of the cable in the opposite ferrule release direction. In a second embodiment, the ferrule is in interference fit with the cable and the spring is not used forcing the ferrule to always grip the cable. The ferrule in both embodiments grips the softer cable with higher rotational force than the ferrule friction force with the housing bore so that rotation or twisting of the cable relative to the housing rotates the ferrule therewith. The cable can not be threaded out of the ferrule by rotating the cable. A lubricant or reduced friction material coating can be used to enhance relative rotation between the ferrule and housing.

Abstract: Reception-channel switching of a broadcast television set (1) is effected via a unit (4) that interfaces the set (1) with remote distribution equipment (13) of a cable network. Viewing-channel selection is communicated from a hand-held control (2) to an infra-red receiver (7) of the unit (4). The selection made is processed by a microprocessor (9) and associated memory (8) to derive control signals that are transmitted from an LED (11) to the infra-red receiver (6) of the set (1), to switch the set (1) to the appropriate reception channel. If a cable channel is selected from the control (2), the microprocessor (9) also supplies command signals to a microprocessor (16) which controls a tuner (12) of the distribution equipment (13) to select the relevant channel signal. The selected signal is supplied to the set (1) via an input cable (5) to the unit (4), and this same cable (5) is used for transmission of the command signal from the unit (4) to the equipment (13).

Abstract: The object of the invention is to prevent the flow of molten solder to the adjacent input electrodes and to prevent short-circuiting between electrodes as well as wire breakage from happening by performing a process for avoiding the concentration of shearing stress applied to the input electrodes. 
     The lengths of the slit 26 for the input electrodes 28 are made uneven. The input electrodes 28 and the board electrodes 30 are laid over one another. When they are heated, the solder 32 is melted, thereby securing the electrodes 28 and 30. The molten solder 32 flows between the base 22 and the board 18A by capillary action. This flow of solder to the adjacent input electrodes 28 is prevented by forming the convex sections 26A at the lengths of the slit 26 so as to make it uneven to make the base 22 connecting the adjacent input electrodes 28 non-linear. Moreover, in cases of relative motion of the liquid crystal cells 16 and the boards 18A and B, independent deformation becomes possible at the joint section between the convex sections 26A and separate input electrodes 28, thereby avoiding the concentration of shearing stress and increasing the strength.
