Patent EP-0240113-B1 (EP)
IPC: G02C13/00
Filed: 1987-02-11
Granted: 1993-06-02
Abstract: Contact lenses can be made by machining an inner concave surface into a plastics material blank, then mounting the blank in a lathe and machining the outer convex surface thereon. Repeated measurement with a micrometer is needed during the latter machining to ensure that the lens vertex is correctly formed. To avoid this, the sensor described herein comprises a laser source (12) from which radiation passes over a knife edge member (13) and the blank (10) to a detector (15), the items being arranged so that, when the lens has been correctly machined, a surface diffraction effect occurs leading to a detectable signal from the detector (15). The disclosed sensor apparatus could be used during manufacture of items other than contact lenses.

Abstract: A method of recording an image of an object onto cinematographic color film comprises forming a number of successive images of the object through a single lens system onto each frame of the film, the successive images being recorded in light of different characteristics, for example different colors. In a preferred embodiment, each frame of the film is exposed successively to light of two or three different colors. The film is projected using a conventional projector, and when viewed through spectacles consisting of two appropriate filters gives a stereoscopic effect. The method can be used to produce a film which can also be viewed without spectacles, and is found to give enhanced sharpness and color saturation. The invention also includes a moving film camera having a mechanism for interposing a number of filters in the optical path successively during exposure of each frame so that successive images are overlaid on each frame. In one embodiment a rotatable shutter member having a transparent portion consisting of a number of filters is provided. The shutter member may replace the rotating shutter of a conventional film camera. Several different forms of shutter member are described.

Abstract: 2.1 In order to be able to apply the necessary volume of ink to the material to be printed in conventional rotary letterpress printing for newspapers, the ink is supplied or transported in excess with the result that some of the printing ink is forced onto the flanks of the screen or character printing areas and, therefore, into the low areas between the print surfaces, thereby causing a lack of sharpness of the screen dots or characters. 2.2 Metering the volume of ink actually required to produce a perfect ink impression on the material to be printed is achieved by designing the ink-carrying areas on the printing plate made of plastic to have a critical surface tension of about 18 to 35 mN/m and an improvement in the quality of the letterpress prints is achieved by a process in which, in combination with such printing plates, emulsion inks with 10%, particularly 30% of water and with or without a content of oil are used. 2.3 Printing plate for intaglio and, particularly, letterpress printing, including its flexographic printing variant.

Granted: 1991-12-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a collecting and transport container, especially for waste products, having at least one filling and emptying opening, which can be closed by a lid, and having devices for setting down and lifting up during transportation. The object is to provide a container of this type, which, having an economic construction, ensures a high degree of safety during transportation on different means of transport, including a loading and unloading terminal, and can be emptied and cleaned satisfactorily. For this purpose, provision is made for the container (1) to have an approximately cylindrical central part (1a), having a cylinder axis which is approximately horizontal in the operating position, and at least one end wall (4) which is embossed on the outside. Mounted in the end wall (4) at the top is a large domed nozzle (6), the opening (8) of which encloses an angle of between 5 - 30 DEG  with the cylinder axis and the lowest point of the opening (8) lies above the highest filling level (A) in the operating position. The large domed nozzle forms a filling and emptying opening which, compared to a lid, forming the entire upper surface in known containers, offers the advantage of limited size and, for that reason, and due to its shape offers greater security in respect of sealing off and arresting.

Abstract: A device for recording a digital information signal in information tracks of a record carrier (62, Fig. 8) and, prior to recording, converting consecutive information words of the applied digital signal into channel words of a selected channel code, comprises an input terminal (10) for receiving the information words, an encoding device (12), having a first input (11) coupled to the input terminal (10), a second input (27) for receiving a control signal (RV-DSV), a first output (13) for supplying the channel words, and a second output (17) for supplying the disparity (DS) of a channel word. The output (17) is coupled for an input (23) of a signal-combination unit (22) via an integrating element (21). An output of a signal generator (20) is coupled to a second input (24) of the combination unit (22).

Abstract: Matériau composite céramique comprenant un verre cristallisé en tant que matrice et des fibres céramiques ou des monocristaux sans dislocations en tant que matériaux de renforcement. On produit ce matériau en fondant un verre servant de base pour le verre cristallisé, en le mélangeant aux fibres ou aux monocristaux d'oxyde céramique de manière à former un composite, et en cristallisant ensuite le verre de base. Ce matériau composite permet d'incorporer facilement le matériau de renforcement dans une proportion égale ou supérieure à 50 % en volume sans former de cavités, et présente par conséquent une excellente résistance mécanique et à la cassure. La proportion du matériau de renforcement peut être accrue par l'application d'une pression à un mélange de verre de base et de matériau de renforcement lors de la formation du composite, afin d'exprimer le verre excédentaire. On peut également mouler le matériau composite céramique en une forme désirée en utilisant la propriété d'écoulement visqueux que le verre de base présente lorsqu'il est chauffé.
