Abstract: The invention relates to a method of and a device for detecting the flatness of a metal band product at high temperature, using a measuring roll (1) having a cylindrical external face (13) comprising an angular contact sector with the band and a free sector. According to the invention, the roll (1) is cooled down forcibly by circulating a heat exchanging fluid along at least one portion of the free sector of the external face (13) of the roll (1) and one determines the parameters responsible for the cooling efficiency such as the opening angle (B) of cooling sector, the temperature and the circulation flow rate of the heat exchanging fluid, so that the external face (13) of the roll (1) is brought back, at each revolution, to a pre-set equilibrium temperature. The invention applies especially to the hot rolling of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Abstract: The inventive closure includes an annular part, to which a lid is joined by a hinge, and a the spout that is pushed inside the annular part. When pushing the spout into the annular part, the edge of the spout abuts against segments and is thus brought into the optimal drop-preventing shape. When closing the lid, the air in the slot can escape through the outlets so that it does not impede the closing or have the tendency to open the closure. Also during closing, the upper end of the spout comes into contact with the supporting surfaces, which are arranged in an interspaced manner inside the slot, whereby remaining liquid can be accommodated in the cavities.

Abstract: When the observation point on a PDP screen moves, artefacts will be introduced which are commonly described as "dynamic false contour". A simple way to reduce this effect requires the use of more sub-fields at the expense of panel brightness. A first idea called Bit-Line-Repeat (BLR) makes it possible to exchange vertical resolution with addressing time in order to dispose of more sub-fields for the same brightness. Nevertheless, such a solution introduces some vertical artefacts mostly during movement. Therefore, before the step of sub-field encoding a vertically filtering of the picture divided into pixel blocks is performed, wherein each block includes at least one pixel in horizontal direction and a number of pixels corresponding to the number of common lines in vertical direction. The effect of the pre-filtering step is that the difference of brightness values within each pixel block is limited to a predetermined value. In that case the BLR introduces only a slight vertical loss free from motion artefacts. <IMAGE>
