Abstract: A coating powder comprising a macrocyclic oligomer and a ring-opening polymerization agent is applied to an article, fused, and converted to a linear polymer at a temperature of from about 160 to about 400°C. The powder has the low melt viscosity and friability of a thermoset powder but is converted at high fusing temperatures to a tough coating having the good impact resistance and good elongation of a thermoplastic powder. The oligomer is a polyester, polycarbonate, polyamide, polyimide, polyamideimide. The article may be coated electrostatically or in a fluidized bed.

Abstract: An interface layer and method is provided that permits applications (10), without modification, to operate with any type of meter (30). The interface (20) comprises an abstraction layer and library or repository of descriptions specific to each meter type. The abstraction layer provides the capability to communicate with any meter (30) through a variety of applications (10). Upon receiving an application request, the abstraction layer retrieves the description for the particular meter type from the repository and processes the request. In this manner, only one data representation is needed for applications to communicate with a wide variety of meters (30).

Abstract: Techniques for black and white pattern rendering that increase processing speed and reduce memory requirements while providing improved pattern selection performance are provided. The hue angle and lightness of a color input are determined. The hue angle is used to index into a lookup table of halftone functions that specify default frequency and spot functions for a hue angle range. For each selected halftone, the determined hue angle is substituted from the hue angle range if the determined hue angle differs from the last determined hue angle range by more than a threshold difference value. The determined lightness is used to determine the halftoning threshold value and rendering then occurs.

Abstract: In a preferred embodiment of the invention an extension section of a frame is held down in its locked position by the same mechanism that folds and unfolds the frame extension. When the frame extension is in its locked down position, it bears against a limit stop that precludes further movement in an unfolding direction. An operating link that is pushed and pulled by a hydraulic cylinder to manipulate the frame extension is controlled in such a way by a guide member that the line of action of the link is directed transversely toward a guide surface of the guide when the frame extension is in its unfolded position. Thus, only a small amount of force is required from the hydraulic cylinder at that time to maintain the link in its locked position, since most of the load from the link is born by the guide surface at this time. In a preferred embodiment, the line of action of the link is approximately perpendicular to the guide surface.
