Patent EP-1529129-A1 (EP)
Title: Texturing machine
Inventor: JASCHKE KLEMENS
IPC: B65H67/04
Filed: 2002-10-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a texturing machine for crimping threads in a number of processing points. Each of the processing points have a number of process units, a winding device, to which a suction device with a receiving opening for leading the thread away is assigned, and have at least one guide tube, which has an injector and which is provided for pneumatically conveying the thread. In order to initially lay down the thread in the winding device, a blowing opening, which is provided at the end of the guide tube, interacts with a receiving opening of the suction device. According to the invention, the blowing openings of the guide tube and the receiving opening of the suction device are located opposite one another. The guide tube is designed so that it can be displaced thereby enabling the blowing opening to be held in a number of positions relative to the receiving opening in order to transfer and lay down the thread. This results in a reliable and flexible guiding of the thread for the automatic threading and laying down in the winding device.

Abstract: A light emitting diode includes first and second electrical terminals of which the
first terminal forms a support. A light emitting diode die is mounted on the support
of the first terminal and is connected to the second terminal by a conductive wire for
emitting a first light. An encapsulation is formed around the die. A phosphor layer
is formed on the support and interposed between the die and the support. The
phosphor receives a portion of the first light and in turn gives off a second light that is
selectively different from the first light for combining with the first light that travels
out of the encapsulation to control brightness and color of the light projecting out of
the encapsulation. Thus, a stable lighting may be achieved and mass production of
quality-controlled light emitting diodes is made possible.

visible and non-visible primitives,   a back face culling module (309) arranged
downstream of the model view module (201) for at least
partially eliminating the non visible primitives,   a projection transform module (204) for
transforming the coordinates of the video signals from
view space coordinates into normalized projection
coordinates (P), and   a perspective divide module (208) for transforming
the coordinates of the video signals from normalized
projection (P) coordinates into screen space
coordinates (S).   
     The back face culling module (309) is arranged
downstream the projection transform module (204) and
operates on normalized projection (P) coordinates of
said primitives. The perspective divide module (208) is
arranged downstream the back face culling module (309)

Abstract: A support system is provided by which a support agent (10) can assist a user (12) to
resolve a problem with a device (14). The support service provides a telephone link (32)
between the user (12) and a support agent (10), a call initially being handled by an
automated answering service (34) which invites the user (12) to prepare for the call by
visiting a support website to run a preparation routine (112) which determines the
configuration and state of the client's device (14). Once the data has been harvested, the
web application (32) carries out a plurality of sub-routines to determine the operating
conditions of the device (14). Where the problem can be corrected automatically, the web
application (22) performs this directly. Where this cannot be done, the web application
(22) stores the harvested data in memory (25) and provides the user (12) with a location
code for that data. The user (12) can then contact the support agent (10) and provide the
agent with the location code. Support can thus be provided efficiently without the agent
needing to waste time on data harvesting tasks.
