Abstract: Le patin pour marchette est une pièce sphérique destinée à être fixée de façon non permanente sur l'extrémité inférieure d'une patte de marchette ou d'un autre objet avec pattes. Le patin pour marchette est formé d'une balle creuse et élastique comportant un certain nombre de trous de fixation à la patte. Aucun trou n'est aligné directement et diamétralement opposé avec un autre trou. Tout trou fait toujours face à une surface ininterrompue de la balle directement et diamétralement devant celui-ci. Ceci permet à tout trou de la balle d'être placé sur l'extrémité de la patte, tout en assurant que la pointe de la patte s'appuie contre la surface ininterrompue opposée de la balle. Lorsque la surface d'appui de la balle est usée, l'utilisateur n'a qu'à retirer la balle et la réorienter en l'insérant sur la patte par un autre trou pour obtenir une surface d'appui non usée de la balle. Bien que n'importe quel type approprié de balle puisse être utilisé, on a constaté que les balles de tennis donnent de bons résultats.

Granted: 2011-02-01
Abstract: A system for processing a simplified plastic container (C) that is to be filled with a hot product includes the step of blow-molding parison to form a container body, where the container body has a neck, a base, a side surface relatively free of structural geometry that surrounds an interior of the container body and, prior to being filled with the hot product, a projection (12) extending from the container body. After the container body is filled with a hot product in a production line, the neck of the filled container body is capped with a cap and then, the container body is cooled. During the cooling operation, the hot product is contracted so that the projection extending from the container can be pushed (P) into the container body like a traditional push-up so that the resultant, filled and cooled container body is relatively free of structural geometry.

Abstract: This invention is concerned with a video quality measurement method, in particular where the video signal having: an original form; an encoded form in which video signal has been encoded using a compression algorithm utilising a variable quantiser step size such that the encoded signal includes a quantiser step size parameter; and, a decoded form in which the encod-ed video signal has been at least in part reconverted to the original form. The method comprises the steps of: a) generating a first quality measure which is a function of said quantiser step size parameter; b) generating a masking measure and c) combining the first and second measures. The masking measure is which is a function of the spatial complexity of parts of the frames represented by the video signal in the decoded form, these parts being selected by generating a second measure which is a function of the pre-diction residual and identifying one or more regions of the picture for which the second measure exceeds a threshold.
