Abstract: A method of punching a hole of a given shape and a given area through a thickness of a glass sheet comprising heating the given area to a temperature higher than the overall temperature of the glass sheet which is in a temperature range approximating the annealing range of the glass sheet, developing a temperature in the perimeter of the given area of at least the softening temperature of the glass sheet by directly exposing a target portion of spaced from the perimeter of said given area for a brief time to flames that heat the target portion to a temperature above the softening temperature range and develop a decreasing temperature gradient through the given area perimeter such that it is within a temperature range whose minimum is the softening temperature and maximum is below the reboil temperature and driving a punch having an outline conforming to that of the given area through the thickness of the glass sheet at the given area before the perimeter cools to below said softening temperature. After punching, an optional step includes fire polishing a lower edge corner to reduce the size of a bulbed shape that forms as a result of the punching step and to smooth the lower edge.

Abstract: The invention relates to the removal of surface coating agent from workpieces by embrittling the layer of surface coating agent by means of a medium having a very low temperature. The embrittled layer of surface coating agent is usually subsequently treated mechanically in order to remove the surface coating agent completely from the surface coating agent carrier. This can result in damage and abrasion of material from the surface coating agent carrier. In order to remove the surface coating agent without a large degree of technical complexity and in a manner which spares the surface coating agent carrier and is environmentally friendly, the workpieces are treated with high pressure water jets during or after cooling with the medium having a very low temperature.

Filed: 1991-07-11
Abstract: Apparatus and methods based on signal processing techniques are disclosed for determining the distance of an object from a camera, rapid autofocusing of a camera, and obtaining focused pictures from blurred pictures produced by a camera. The apparatus of the present invention includes a camera characterized by a set of four camera parameters: position of the image detector or film inside the camera, focal length of the optical system in the camera, the size of the aperture of the camera, and the characteristics of the light filter in the camera. In the method of the present invention, at least two images of the object are recorded with different values for the set of camera parameters. The two images are converted to a standard format to obtain two normalized images. The values of the camera parameters and the normalized images are substituted into an equation obtained by equating two expressions for the focused image of the object. The two expressions for the focused image are based on a new deconvolution formula which requires computing only the derivatives of the normalized images and a set of weight parameters dependent on the camera parameters and the point spread function of the camera. In particular, the deconvolution formula does not involve any Fourier transforms and therefore the present invention has significant advantages over prior art. The equation which results from equating two expressions for the focused image of the object is solved to obtain a set of solutions for the distance of the object. A third image of the object is then recorded with new values for the set of camera parameters. The solution for distance which is consistent with the third image and the new values for the camera parameters is determined to obtain the distance of the object. Based on the distance of the object, a set of values is determined for the camera parameters for focusing the object. The camera parameters are then set equal to these values to accomplish autofocusing. After determining the distance of the object, the focused image of the object is obtained using the deconvolution formula. A generalized version of the method of determining the distance of an object can be used to determine one or more unknown camera parameters. This generalized version is also applicable to any linear shift-invariant system for system parameter estimation and signal restoration.
