Abstract: A winder (10) for winding a web (36) to produce a rolled product is provided. The winder includes a web (36) transport apparatus (34) that is used for conveying the web (36). Also included in one exemplary embodiment is a plurality of independent winding modules. The winding modules (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) are independently positioned to independently engage the web (36) as the web (36) is conveyed by the web transport apparatus (34). The winding modules (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) may be configured to wind the web (36) to form a rolled product by center winding, surface winding, and combinations of center and surface winding. The winding modules (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) are structurally and operationally independent of one another where if one module is disabled, another may still operate to produce the rolled product without shutting down the winder.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel design for color electrophoretic displays. In the display, each pixel (200) comprises at least two sub-pixels (210, 220, 230), and each sub pixel is fitted with a color filter (211, 221, 231) and contains an electrophoretic media comprising two particle types (201, 202, 203). The color filters (211, 221, 231) in the sub-pixels of each pixel have essentially non-overlapping absorption bands, and together cover essentially all of the wavelengths over which the display is operative. Furthermore, the absorption bands of the particles in each sub-pixel (210, 220, 230) each cover a portion of the wavelengths that is not covered by the filter (211, 221, 231) in the respective sub-pixel. The wavelength bands typically correspond to different colors. Thereby each wavelength band, or color, can be emitted by more than one sub-pixel in each pixel, resulting in increased brightness. According to one particular embodiment, each pixel comprises three sub-pixels having a cyan, magenta, and yellow absorbing filter, respectively.
