Patent CA-2068570-A1 (CA)
Title: Anti-iridescence coatings
Inventor: BURNS CAROLE G
IPC: B60J1/00
Filed: 1992-05-13
Abstract: A glazing article comprises a substrate bearing a substantially transparent coating comprising an optically functional topcoat and a thinner anti-iridescence layer undercoat mediate the topcoat and the substrate. The anti-iridescence layer eliminates or substantially reduces iridescence and, in addition, is readily designed to make the overall coating either colorless or to provide a substantially uniform muted color. The antiiridescence layer comprises a first thickness zone in which the refractive index is higher than that of the substrate. A low refractive index zone is positioned directly on the high refractive index zone. A second high refractive index zone is positioned on the low refractive index zone, such that the low refractive index zone is directly sandwiched between the two high refractive index zones. A fourth zone, a low refractive index zone, follows the second high refractive index zone. Anti-iridescence is provided for a wide variety of optically functional topcoats without significant impairment of the optical performance thereof. Certain preferred embodiments are particularly well adapted for low emissivity glazing for architectural applications.

Abstract: L'invention est constituée par une méthode et un appareil de codage et d'affichage avec transparence de fenêtres en chevauchement. Chaque pixel d'une fenêtre qui ne doit pas être affiché peut être codé pixel « transparent ». La méthode divulguée identifie les pixels qui ont été codés transparents et affiche les pixels non transparents contenus dans les fenêtres de priorité d'affichage moins élevé à la place des pixels transparents contenus dans les fenêtres de priorité d'affichage plus élevé. Un entier représentant le nombre des pixels successifs qui sont également transparents dans une fenêtre peut être associé à un pixel codé transparent. On peut coder un pixel transparent en lui affectant une valeur présélectionnée distincte des valeurs par ailleurs utilisées pour indiquer, par exemple, la couleur et/ou l'intensité de chaque pixel affiché. La méthode et l'appareil divulgués peuvent comprendre une ou plusieurs fenêtres contenant des images vidéo animées (c.-à-d. des images de télévision) pouvant chacune contenir des pixels transparents. Un pixel peut également être codé « translucide »; dans ce cas une combinaison du pixel translucide et d'un pixel non translucide contenus dans une fenêtre de priorité d'affichage inférieure est affichée. La méthode divulguée peut également être utilisée pour détecter de façon efficace diverses conditions dans l'image affichée, y compris la collision d'objets et le pointage d'un curseur affiché pour identifier les « points chauds ».

Abstract: For use with an air seeder for distribution of seed to a agricultural implement by pneumatic conveyance is a unique seed-centering and distribution system.  The primary conveyance tube which is adapted to receive metered amounts of fertilizer and/or seed or granular herbicide is equipped with a plurality of internal sloped annular rings as well as a series of internal baffles.  The internal baffles are particularly adapted for dividing the seed stream through a right angled turn from the horizontal to the vertical.  The sloped annular rings project further into the conveyance tube on their downstream side than on the upstream side.          Interestingly enough, it has been found that much less power is required to center and evenly distribute the seed with this device than the prior art devices.  Moreover, damage to delicate seed is greatly reduced.
