IPC: D21F11/04
Filed: 2003-07-08
Abstract: A papermaking machine has a sieve section where two layers of fibrous web join at a merging point (10) to form a single web. Prior to the merging point, a belt (4) bearing one fibrous layer passes around a redirection drum (23) to leave in a downwards direction towards the lowest part (11) of the merging point, which is below that of the belt (4) plane (E) before reaching the merging zone. The assembly is a papermaking machine which manufactures a multi-layered web of paper, carton or tissue from one or more fibrous suspensions (3.1, 3.2). One layer of fibres (5) is surrendered to a first belt (4) which passes between a twin sieve (6) with upper (7) and lower (8) belts, in which a second layer of fibres (9) is created. The assembly further has a merge section (10), in which the first (5) and second (9) layers are brought together, forming a single web (2). As seen in the direction (L) of belt (4) travel the twin sieve section (6) is located prior to the merging section (10). The second fibrous layer (9) on the first sieve (upper sieve; 7) enters the merging section (10) at an angle of less than 90 to the other belt (4).

Abstract: A drawing instruction processor refers to a bitmap line table that
shows whether the bit arrays in the row unit are the same in the order
of concentrations. The drawing instruction processor decides whether
dither patterns to be used for the adjacent specified drawing ranges are
the same, by referring to the BLT, and links the drawing ranges to which
the same pattern can be applied. Based on this, the drawing
processor carries out a batch writing using a dither pattern prepared in
advance into the specified range in the page memory. The dither
pattern to be used for the drawing is prepared by linking a plurality of
the same basic patterns to have a length corresponding to the length of
the word length. As a result of such an arrangement, it is possible to
achieve a high-speed processing.

Abstract: An adaptive predictive playout scheme, based on a Least Mean Square (LMS)
prediction algorithm, for packet voice applications. The packets are received and stored in
a buffer for playout at a constant draining rate P0, where P0 is determined by the codec

Abstract: A variable marine jet propulsion system incorporates a motor (21), variable pitch propeller pump (50) in a spherical housing (62), a variable housing and a variable inlet duct, and a microcontroller (140). The pump, nozzle, and inlet are controlled by the microcontroller, which is programmed to control the pump as a continuously variable power transmission for maintaining efficient motor operation, the nozzle for maintaining efficient pump operation, and the inlet for maintaining efficient recovery of the total dynamic head of the incoming water. The spherical pump housing maintains close fits to the propeller vane tips for more efficient operation at all pitches, including zero and reverse pitches. Zero pitch results in no effective pumping action, effectively a true neutral in fluid power transmission. Reverse pitch in combination with the large variable nozzle provide reverse flow and consequently reverse thrust, which eliminates the need for a backing bucket.

Abstract: A circuit for a nuclear magnetic resonance probe uses three resonators to
create resonances intermediate to the resonator resonant frequencies. The circuit is
particularly useful for creating magnetic fields for two closely spaced high frequencies,
such as those used for the excitation of  1 H and  19 F. The resonators are arranged in a
parallel combination, or the electrical equivalent thereof, with input ports connected to it
for inputting the desired high frequency resonances. Admittance inverters may be used
to provide isolation between the input ports. Some of the resonators and the
admittance inverters may be transmission lines. The transmission lines may have
additional ports for additional input signals of lower frequencies located at null points for
the frequencies of the signals coupled to the primary input ports. Adjustable dielectric
components in the resonator transmission lines may be used for tuning purposes.

Abstract: A method of estimating emitter range and heading from
bearing measurements without requiring observer heading
change or observer acceleration during the bearing
measurement collection period. Emitter signal
characteristics are measured and a set of parameters
characterizing a specific emitter as a signal source are
generated based on the measured characteristics. Based
on the emitter characterization and an emitter-platform
association data base, a most probable platform
including the emitter is identified and the emitter
operating mode and corresponding specific platform are
associated with a particular kinematic regime. A
platform performance data base is used to (1) derive a
speed value based on the kinematic regime, (2) generate
emitter bearings based on the measured emitter
characteristics, (3) estimate the emitter speed based on
the emitter bearings, and (4) determine the emitter
range based on a comparison of the continuous speed
value with a discrete speed value derived based on the
platform performance data base.
