Abstract: A waste sorting installation contains a conveying system loaded with waste for manual sorting of the waste. The conveying system (10) runs through a cabin (36) which is arranged on a transportable frame (38). The cabin (36) encloses the conveying system (10) and the work stations of the persons employed on this. In order to permit working on a waste sorting installation in a relatively narrow cabin, an odour barrier (46, 48) is provided which on the one hand permits the manual sorting process but on the other separates the compartment accommodating the persons from the conveying system (10). This odour barrier is formed by an air curtain with fresh air infeed and vitiated air extraction. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing compensation for mutual inductance between co-directional coils of a multichannel yoke utilizes a transformer to impose a voltage on a slow response time driver circuit of a first coil which corresponds to the current in a second coil. The voltage deliberately coupled to the driver circuit of the first coil opposes the induced voltage in the first coil and effectively inhibits current disturbances from being induced in the driver circuit so as to prevent the slow response time driver circuit from attempting to correct such a disturbance and extending the duration of the disturbance. The improvement in settling time thus achieved allows realization of the full potential of multi-channel generation of magnetic fields, particularly as applied to charged particle beam deflection arrangements such as in cathode ray tubes and electron beam lithography devices. Utilization of the invention also allows avoidance of geometrical constraints on the relative location of coils to alter their mutual inductance.

Abstract: A preset type radio receiver where broadcasting stations are preset to corresponding channel keys so that a tuner section tunes to a desired station in response to a pressing of a channel key corresponding to the desired station. A quality-of-sound setting section sends a frequency characteristic of an output of the tuner section. The frequency characteristic is set in accordance with a data indicative of the frequency characteristic. A memory stores therein sets of data of the broadcasting stations, each of sets of data being preset to a corresponding channel key. Each of sets of data includes the first data and a frequency data necessary for receiving a broadcasting station. When a channel key is pressed by a user, a controller reads a set of data from the memory and sends the first data of the set of data to the quality-of-sound setting section and the frequency data of the set of data to the tuner section.

Abstract: Method of, and apparatus for, optical character recognition of predominate and non-predominate color coded characters based on hypothesis testing utilizing both geometric optical character recognition and color coded optical character recognition techniques. In this hypothesis testing technique, geometric OCR is used to generate a null hypothesis that a target character has been recognized, and an alternative hypothesis that the target character has not been recognized. Color coded OCR is used to select either the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis. Alternatively, the roles of geometric OCR and color coded OCR may be reversed such that color coded OCR is used for hypothesis generation, and geometric OCR is used for hypothesis selection.
