Abstract: A zero string error detection circuit, comprising:- 
a pair of shift registers (1P and 1N) which receive positive and negative sides of bipolar data, arriving serially, and convert it to parallel data composed of a selected number of bits; 
a code detector (2) which, upon detecting a specific code in the parallel outputs of the shift registers (1P and 1N), issues a reset signal to the shift registers (1P and 1N) to make the outputs of the shift registers (1P and 1N) zero; 
a zero string monitor (3) which issues a zero string error detection signal when the parallel outputs of the shift registers (1P and 1N) become zero; and 
a gate (6) which inhibits said zero string monitor (3) from issuing the zero string error detection signal during a specific period, when said code detector (2) issues a reset signal.

Abstract: A process for protecting a filter bed medium (12) and underlying support screen (16) from solids contained in a liquid, such as filtrate from the filter, used to regenerate or backwash the filter (10) is provided in which filtrate is collected in a first collection chamber (30) containing a screen assembly (34) through which filtrate passes to a first outlet, the chamber also containing a second outlet (48) which bypasses the screen assembly to deliver filtrate for further processing or use. Filtrate traversing the screen assembly (34) is transferred to a second collection chamber (50) with addition of a predetermined amount of bactericide to prevent solids growth therein. Upon bactericide-treated filtrate reaching a predetermined level (42) within the second chamber (50), filtrate in the first chamber (30) is allowed to flow out of the second outlet (48) to further biological treatment or use. Bactericide-treated filtrate from the second collection chamber (50) is used periodically to regenerate or backwash the filter (10) with optional addition of surfactant to assist in cleaning the filter medium (12) and underlying support screen (16). The first collection chamber (30) has an alarm system (76,120) which detects resistance of filtrate flow traversing the screen assembly (34) and warns that the screen assembly requires cleaning or replacement. Alternatively, a second collection chamber is not used and the bactericide-treated filtrate is collected in the first collection chamber for delivery to the filter for regeneration or backwashing after traversing the screen assembly, filtrate bypassing the collection chamber for delivery downstream when the first collection chamber is filled to a predetermined level. Apparatus for carrying out the process is also described.

Abstract: A method for clipping a line segment boundary-defined area against a limiting plane is disclosed for use in a computer graphics display system wherein graphics figures are represented by random sets of polylines definitive of line segment boundary-defined areas. Pursuant to the clipping method, once two intersection points are generated against one plane, the points are connected to form an edge of the new clipped boundary-defined area. The order of intersection point connection is irrelevant to the invention and the method can accommodate discontinuously presented data as readily as continuously presented data. Implementing the method essentially requires only one register to store the first intersection point and a flag register to indicate the status of the present clip point, i.e., whether the clipped point is the first or second of two points to be paired. In another aspect of the invention, an improved extraneous edge deletion method is provided capable of deleting extraneous lines formed as a result of a line segment boundary-defined area being clipped against a limiting plane. Pursuant to the method, clipped X-axis and Y-axis extraneous edges are eliminated during area fill processing in the graphics display system.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for generating electronic representations of animated images from stored image data elements with reduced computational requirements. The image data elements may be made available from one or more data base sources (150), and may be of any suitable form from which images can be computed. A first sequence of relatively low resolution frames are computed (210) from the stored image data elements, this first sequence of frames representing animated images over a given time period. A second sequence of relatively high resolution frames are computed (220) from the stored image data elements, this second sequence of frames representing the animated images over the given time period. The number of frames in the second sequence is less than the number of frames in the first sequence. Corresponding frames of the first and second sequence are combined (230) to obtain output high resolution frames representative of the animated images over the given time period. The preferred embodiment of the invention, further includes the following steps: spatially interpolating (421) each of the frames of the first sequence to increase the number of pixels in the spatially interpolated frames, and temporally interpolating (421) between frames of the second sequence to obtain further frames in the sequence. In this embodiment, the combining step (230) includes combining the interpolated first sequence frames with second sequence frames and further second sequence frames.

Abstract: An electron emission device is employed as an electron emission source in various applications using an electron beam. The electron emission device has a cathode layer having an edge, and a control electrode spaced and electrically insulated from the cathode layer, for drawing electrons from said edge of the cathode layer. When a voltage is applied between the cathode layer and the control electrode, a developed electric field is concentrated on the edge of the cathode layer to cause the edge to emit electrons. The electron emission device can easily be manufactured with a high yield since it does not have a needle tip for emitting electrons. A method of manufacturing the electron emission device is also disclosed.

Abstract: In matrix printers with mechanical printing elements, said elements must be triggered a specific time before the desired printing point on the recording medium is reached by the printing element since after the triggering and until the printing element, strikes the recording medium the printing element still has to move a certain distance. This distance is dependent on the speed of the printing element. However, if the printing signal is always generated over a constant distance before the desired printing point is reached by the printing element, said element must be decelerated in order to drive the printing element as a function of its speed so that accurate printing can also take place already when the printing head is starting up and slowing down. For this, a deceleration arrangement is provided which decelerates the print signal for the respective printing element by a time which is dependent on the print head speed. A preferred embodiment of the deceleration arrangement uses a counter which is also used for determining the activation time of the magnet and a pause. In addition, a circuit is described for determining the deceleration time as a function of the speed, which circuit operates with two settable counters, one counter of which counts a constant clock frequency and the other counter counts position impulses as a function of the movement of the printing element. As a result, the constant needle flight time is converted into a speed-dependent distance, by which the lead distance of the print signal is corrected. <IMAGE>
