Patent EP-0247886-A3 (EP)
IPC: B21D5/08
Filed: 1987-05-28
Abstract: A roll forming machine is disclosed having the 
upper and lower rollers at each stand mounted on 
cantilevered drive shafts. The upper and lower rollers 
are arranged in respective pairs so that the ends of 
each of the drive shafts of each pair extend towards 
each other. The drive shafts are attached to movable 
chassis which enable the axial distance between the 
opposing drive shaft ends to be adjustably varied thus 
varying the width of the rolled product.
Patent EP-0289678-A3 (EP)
IPC: G04G99/00
Filed: 1987-07-15
Abstract: A highly portable, disposable, self-contained 
timer (1) provides a user-perceptible signal at 
automatically-successive, fixed time intervals to alert 
the user as to the times for taking medications. The 
time intervals are not variably programmable, and dif­
ferent timers having different fixed time intervals are 
provided for use with different medications. Prefer­
ably, the time intervals are nonuniform, comprising 
multiple shorter intervals combined with a longer 
interval corresponding to a normal sleeping period so 
that, when the timer is initialized in accordance with 
the user's sleeping cycle, no signal is emitted while 
the user is asleep. The device is powered by a non-­
replaceable battery for economy and disposability, and 
a deactivator circuit (48) is included which permanently 
disables the unit after a predetermined length of time 
well within the life of the battery. A signal emitted 
by one of a number of timers is easily distinguished, 
without requiring an audible signal of excessive 
duration, by a visual signal of substantially longer 
duration than the audible signal. The timer has an audible 
signal buzzer (14) and a visual signal LED (16).

Title: Sewing machine support adjustable in height
IPC: B23Q1/26
Filed: 1987-09-09
Abstract: To support machinery subject to dynamic vibration in operation, such as sewing machines and the like, on a platform which is movable longitudinally with respect to a post (12), a carriage (14) has at least three or four rollers located thereon of essentially double-conical shape, engaging circular guide surfaces (24) formed on the post. The post (12) preferably is a hollow extruded aluminum rail (12), and the conical portions (46) of the roller form lateral portions having, in cross section, a concave contour which overlaps a projected contour of the guide surfaces of the rails adjacent the terminal ends. The rollers are of elastically deformable material so that, upon engagement with the rail, the terminal end portions will compress and place the guide surfaces under compressive force which is accepted by the rollers, acting in the direction parallel to the shaft axis of the rollers. The center portion of the rail (12) between the guide surfaces (24) where engaged by the roller (42) is relieved (28) so that the central portion (44) of the roller does not contact the post, to permit the compressive force to be fully effective.
Patent EP-0287125-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06V10/24
Filed: 1988-04-15
Abstract: A method of recognizing a subdivision pattern of 
radiation images comprises the steps of, in the case where 
subdivision image recording has been carried out by exposing 
each of a plurality of predetermined subdivisions on 
a stimulable phosphor sheet to radiation, detecting prospective 
edge points, which are considered to be an edge of 
a subdivision line between the subdivisions, from image 
signals detected from a stimulable phosphor sheet region as 
the boundary between the subdivisions, and discriminating 
whether the prospective edge points stand or do not stand in 
a straight line. An image subdivision pattern on the 
stimulable phosphor sheet is recognized by judging that the 
subdivisions line is present in the case where the prospective 
edge points stand in a straight line, and judging that 
no subdivision line is present in the case where the 
prospective edge points do not stand in a straight line.

Title: Signs and objects recognition process
IPC: G06K9/62
Filed: 1988-06-18
Abstract: Unknown characters and objects are read opto-electronically and the read signals are digitized to generate a binary image of the characters and objects, said image being compared with binary reference images of known reference characters and reference objects stored in reference memories, the reference raster image(s) with the highest coincidence with the read characters or objects being selected to identify the read-in characters or objects. The stored binary reference images form a first binary comparison plane. At least one more binary comparison plane is provided, which consists of stored reference raster images generated by the binary imaging of characteristics or of characteristics parts of the known characters and objects. The actual character or object image read-in in binary manner is compared with at least one reference raster image of a further comparison plane for coincidence if the comparison with the reference raster image of the first comparison plane, or of the first comparison plane combined with a further comparison plane, results in a degree of coincidence below a predetermined threshold.

Title: Analysis
IPC: G01N33/02
Filed: 1988-01-27
Abstract: In a method for determining the dry matter content and 
nutritional value of moist vegetable material, such as 
silage, is expressed from a sample of known quantity by 
applying thereto a reproducible pressure regime, the 
quantity of expressed liquor is measured, and the expressed 
liquor is analysed for parameters, such as pH, ammonia, 
lactic acid, free sugar and alpha-amino nitrogen, from which

acid is absorbed, whereby the quantity of the produced 
hydrochloric acid in the absorption vessel is monitored 
with by means of the pH value of the solution, a pH 
sensor, or with the aid of the quantity of base fed into 
the solution, required for neutralizing the solution, or 
for achieving a given pH value of said solution. The 
present invention also concerns a means for implementing 
the procedure of the invention, said means 
advantageously comprising a control appratus (11), with 
the aid of which base is fed automatically into the 
absorption vessel in such a quantity on the basis of the 
pH value yielded by the pH sensor immersed into the 
solution that the pH value of the absorption solution 
achieves the desired value.
