Abstract: Radiation images of an object are recorded by irradiating several kinds of radiation with different energy levels to an object constituted of tissues exhibiting different levels of radiation absorptivity with respect to the several kinds of radiation with different energy levels. Image signals representing the radiation images are then detected. An image signal is selected from the image signals, or an image signal representing the mean-level image of the radiation images is generated from the image signals. Values of parameters for a subtraction process are changed in accordance with the values of the image signal, which has been selected from the image signals, or the image signal, which represents the mean-level image of the radiation images. The image signal components of the image signals are subtracted from each other, which image signal components represent corresponding picture elements in the radiation images, with the value of each parameter being thus changed for different picture elements in each of the radiation images. A subtraction image signal is thereby obtained which represents a subtraction image, in which only the pattern of a specific tissue of the object is formed or emphasized.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and an apparatus for electrically processing vacuum pressure information in a vacuum unit. The apparatus basically comprises a vacuum supply mechanism, a detecting device, a determining device, a failure precognition signal generating device and a pressure setting-up device. In the apparatus, pressure values are first detected, and a desired pressure value lower than the maximum pressure value of the detected pressure values is digitally displayed on a display unit. Then, the desired pressure value is stored in a storage unit, and pressure values relative to vacuum, which are detected from the detecting device held in front of a passage which communicates with a vacuum port, are converted into digital signals. Thereafter, the digital signals thus converted are digitally displayed on the display unit. Further, the desired pressure value stored in the storage unit is compared with each of the detected pressure values. When they coincide with each other within a predetermined range, a predetermined signal is generated.

Abstract: All finger jointing presses and finger jointing milling, gluing and pressing installations on the market are limited in their output because the pieces of timber pushed in one after the other have to cover lengthwise too long a transporting path until the individual positions, readying for longitudinal transport, for threading in and for pressing or for working, are reached. The subsequent setting time of the glue is too great, since there must be intermediate stops prior to selling or working, corresponding to at least one day's production.  An increase in output and reduced setting time is required. This is remedied by an invention where the boards or pieces of timber are widthwise laterally ahead of the pressing or processing position and the glue and hardener is specified in the heated state. The installations may advantageously also be heatable. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A screening system and method are disclosed for reproduction of images in printing. The screening angles that are used are close, but not identical to conventional screening angles. The reproduction is nevertheless Moire free by the fact that the deviations in angles from the conventional system are exactly offset by the deviations in line rulings. The screening system is particularly advantageous when used for combinations of screens with rational tangent angles. The Moire free combination of rational tangent screens can be rotated by a constant angle with the amount of rotation controlled in small increments.

Abstract: A system and method for use as an authoring system for the development of CD-ROM products containing interleaved digitized audio and graphic images and other information which may be read and displayed or played under control of a computer. By use of the invention, the graphic images and other computer information are stored in a file on the CD-ROM such that when the CD-ROM is accessed by a user, the graphic images and other computer information are displayed and made available to the user synchronously with the playing of the audio information. Combinations of several streams of audio and graphic/computer information can be interleaved into the same file allowing the user, at run time, to choose which stream is to be viewed and which stream is to be listened to at any given time. The system enables an editor to combine various audio files in synchronization with multiple graphic images into a single file which can then be stored on a CD-ROM. Other computer information can also be interleaved with the graphics and audio to allow for control over the playback at runtime. The graphics and other computer information are referred to herein collectively as "resources." The system allows the temporal and spatial placement of the resources on a run time computer screen to be displayed at a time and position which is specified by the editor when authoring. In addition to providing an authoring system, the invention specifies an interleaved data format that meets two criteria. Firstly it works well with low bandwidth media and, in its current embodiment, is optimized for storage on CD-ROM. Secondly, the interleaved nature of the data structure permits buffered playback which delivers continuous audio synchronized with the display of graphic images. When the editor has determined that the authoring process is complete, the system allows for the building of a real time file. The real time file consists of packets of audio data interleaved with packets of graphics and other computer data.
