Title: Clock generator for an image-setting device
Inventor: SINGER ROBERT
IPC: B41C/
Filed: 2002-04-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a clock generator (11) for generating a clock signal for an image-setting device which transfers image-setting information to a rotatable printing plate (1).      The clock generator (11) has an input (14) on which there is a current value signal which depends on the angular position of the printing plate (1), and an output (15) at which the clock signal is output. In addition, the clock generator (11) has a first comparator (19) with a first input, on which the current value signal is present as an analog signal, and a second input, on which there is an analog desired value signal which in each case represents a desired value for the angular position of the printing plate (1). At the output of the first comparator (19), the clock signal formed as a function of the result of a comparison between the analog current value signal and the analog desired value signal is output. In addition, the invention relates to a method for setting an image on a rotatable printing plate (1). The clock signal needed for the image-setting operation is determined from the analog current value signal and the analog desired value signal.

Title: Embossed and printed flocked fabrics and methods for making the fabrics
Inventor: CROMPTON KEVIN R
IPC: D06C23/04
Filed: 2000-09-21
Abstract: Flocked pile fabrics and methods for producing such fabrics are described. The fabrics may include an embossed pattern having elongated depressions in the surface of the fabric and a superimposed printed scene or illustration with visual features having elongated shapes.  The embossed and printed patterns may be superimposed on upon the fabric so that the embossed pattern imparts a three-dimensional texture to the scene or illustration. The texture provided can render the scene or illustration more realistic than if printed upon a conventional unembossed pile fabric. This texturing may be accomplished by substantially aligning the longitudinal axes of elongate features of the printed pattern with elongate features of the embossed pattern. The fabrics provided by the invention are especially useful as camouflage fabrics.

Title: Adjustable urging force system for stacker paddle
Inventor: YAP ANTHONY E
IPC: B65H31/06
Filed: 2002-10-23
Abstract: A paddle urging system for use in a stacking bin having a constant force spring to provide an urging force to a paddle for supporting a stack of mailpieces. As mailpieces are accumulated into the stack, they push the stack against the paddle.

Title: Computation time reduction for three-dimensional displays
Inventor: BLANCHARD PAUL MICHAEL
IPC: G02B30/26
Filed: 2001-05-24
Abstract: A reconfigurable, three-dimensional display (1) wherein knowledge of the viewer's (4) eyes is used to enable the effective exit pupil(s) of the display system to be optimised. The system utilises this knowledge to identify contributing regions (5) within the display (1) that contribute light to the viewer (4). Priority is given to calculating and displaying the part of the display corresponding to the contributing region (5), thereby allowing the system computation requirements to be minimised. Further computation savings are achievable by recognising that only light travelling in a limited range of angles need to be considered.
