Inventor: MIYAJIMA Hisao
IPC: B29C49/22
Filed: 2012-08-08
Abstract: A first technical problem of this invention is to create a process for forming one or more air intake holes in the neck of an easy-to-delaminate bottle, while keeping the inner layer intact without leaving in it any vestige of cut caused by the blade edge of a punch-cutter. A second technical problem is to create a shape of the air intake holes so that the peeling of the inner layer from the outer layer would go on smoothly and reliably around an inside opening of the hole on the inner-surface side of an outer layer. A principle means of this invention to solve these technical problems is a process for forming one or more air intake holes wherein the punch-cutter to be used has a cylindrical blade at the tip, and also has a hooking portion or portions, which is/are disposed on an inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical blade and which performs a function of hooking into a portion of the outer layer that has come inside the cylindrical blade so as to prevent the cylindrical blade from slipping out of that portion of the outer layer at a time when the cylindrical blade is moved backward, the cylindrical blade is pressed forward until the blade edge comes to a position quite close to the inner surface of the outer layer, and at this position, the outer layer is not yet cut out completely, but there still remains a circular uncut portion ahead of the blade edge, then, the cylindrical blade is moved backward, and a the cut piece inside the cylindrical blade is also moved backward along with the uncut portion because of the function of a hooking portion or portions that can hook into a portion of the outer layer that has come inside the cylindrical blade so as to prevent the cylindrical blade from slipping out of that portion of the outer layer, and the uncut portion is broken due to this backward movement, and the cut piece is taken out in a completely cut shape so that the air intake hole is cut out as a through-hole.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for filtering noise of low frequency from an image of the surface characteristics of an object expressed with reference to orthogonal first and second axis and obtained with linear light scanning, involve calculating a difference between pixel values of an image column vector along the second axis adjacent a selected reference image column vector and respective pixel values of the selected reference image column vector to obtain a pixel difference vector. The pixel difference values not mainly associated with a corresponding atypical change of surface characteristics as compared with noise are then selected, and a mean value from the selected pixel difference values are calculated as an estimated value of the noise. The estimated noise value are subtracted from the adjacent image column vector to obtain a corrected image column vector. The calculations are repeated using the corrected image vector as the reference image column vector and a further adjacent image column vector to obtain further corrected image column vectors, from which a noise filtered image is generated.

Abstract: In a method for handling a product, in particular a viscous, pasty product, with at least one rotating shaft (3, 11) in a product space (5), a driving spindle (11) of the shaft (3) is mounted and sealed outside the product space (5) in a housing consisting of a plurality of parts (7, 8, 12). The sealing is brought about by means of at least two seals (2, 4), wherein a dynamic seal (2) follows an eccentric movement of the shaft (3) and takes on dynamic sealing of the rotating shaft (3), while another seal (4) compensates for an eccentric movement of the shaft (3) in relation to the housing by means of plastic or elastic deformation and therefore prevents a leakage between the housing part (12), which moves eccentrically, and a rigid housing (10). A defined quantity of liquid, which serves as a blocking agent and lubricant for the dynamic seal (2) of the shaft (3) towards the housing part (7), is metered in here, said liquid, apart from a residual excess, being drawn into the dynamic seal (2) by means of a pressure difference therewithin and thereby forming an effective block and seal.
