Inventor: ADAM HENRY HARPER
IPC: G03C1/79
Filed: 2002-07-22
Abstract: The invention provides an opaque reflective photographic material eg
paper whose non image side is coated with a mordant in an amount to absorb
during washing of the photographic material dyes that would contribute to
staining of the final image. 
     The mordant may be a quaternary nitrogen-containing compound,
preferably a quaternized vinylimidazole polymer or vinyl benzylammonium
compound. The mordant may be coated at a lay down of from 100 to 400
mg/square ft, preferably from 150 to 300 mg/square foot. The coating preferably
includes a binder such as gelatin. 
     The products of the invention may be produced by coating the non image
side of the photographic material with an aqueous composition containing the
mordant and a binder using known methods.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for
populating, indexing and searching a non-html web content database. 
     Current web search engines are primarily concerned with indexing web
pages according to their text content. Means for effectively indexing
and searching for multimedia content on the www are missing. 
     Non-html web content is located by spidering the results of a web search query or
category selection. The located content items are indexed with a keyword used in
the query or the category. The keyword can then be used to retrieve the items
directly.

Inventor: KIMURA SHUJI
IPC: F02M25/07
Filed: 2002-11-26
Abstract: In a diesel engine, heavy EGR lowers a combustion temperature, which greatly
prolongs an ignition delay period and all fuel is injected within the ignition delay
period, thereby performing a low-temperature premixed combustion. A crank angle
from a fuel injection completion to an ignition start is made less than 15 degrees
by advancing a fuel injection timing and/or prolonging a fuel injection period. As a
result, an equivalent ratio distribution in a combustion chamber at an ignition start
is controlled such that an equivalent ratio in the vicinity of a cylinder center is
richer than in the vicinity of a cylinder wall and the equivalent ratio gradually
changes from the cylinder center to the cylinder wall.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft eine Metallfolie mit eingeprägter Struktur zur Verwendung bei der
Abgasreinigung sowie ein Werkzeug und ein Verfahren zu ihrer Herstellung. Die Metallfolie weist
in Hauptströmungsrichtung (3) abwechselnd Berge (1a) mit Anstiegsflanken (4a) und Abfallflanken (4b) und Täler (2a)
auf, wobei die Berge und Täler parallel zur Hauptströmungsrichtung in Reihen unterteilt sind und
die Berge (1a,2a) und Täler (2a,2b) benachbarter Reihen in Hauptströmungsrichtung gegeneinander in der Weise
versetzt sind, dass die Anstiegsflanken und Abfallflanken zueinander versetzt angeordneter Berge
jeweils eine Senke (6) bilden, die versetzt zueinander angeordnete Täler (2a,2b) verbindet. Die im Bereich
der Abfall- und Anstiegsflanken vorhandenen Senken (6) bilden unregelmäßige Störungszonen und
Verwerfungen zur Verwirbelung und Kontaktierung des Abgases mit der Oberfläche. Die
schachbrettartige Anordnung der Berge und Täler fördert ebenso die Verwirbelung des Abgases
durch seitliche bzw. schräge Ablenkung und, je nach Maß des Reihenversatzes der benachbarten
Reihen, auch eine vertikale Ablenkung über die Senken. Weiterhin schafft die eingeprägte
Struktur der Metallfolie stromabwärts der Senken und in sonstigen luftabgewandten Bereichen
Räume zur Ablagerung von im Abgasstrom enthaltenen Partikeln. In einer bevorzugten
Ausführungsform weist die Anstiegs- und/oder Abfallflanke mindestens eine Öffnung auf, wodurch
das Abgas zusätzlich quer zur Hauptströmungsrichtung in benachbarte Lagen abgelenkt wird.
Eine weitere Metallfolie mit eingeprägter Struktur zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass sie mindestens
teilweise mit einer Granulatschicht versehen ist. Vorzugsweise umfasst die Granulatschicht
metallische und/oder mineralische Stoffe. In einem Herstellungsverfahren erfolgt die Aufbringung
der Granulatschicht, wahlweise einer Klebeschicht und die Wicklung der Metallfolie. Bevorzugt
wird die Granulatschicht auf die Metallfolie aufgesintert. Die Metallfolie kann bei
Abgasreinigungsvorrichtungen, insbesondere in gasförmigen Emissionen von Diesel- oder
Benzinmotoren, bei Partikelfilter zum Filtern von Rußpartikeln und Trägerkörper für Katalysatoren
eingesetzt werden.

Abstract: An inkjet airbrush system (20) uses inkjet printing technology in a new
manner for color mixing in airbrush painting. A variety of different
configurations are used to generate atomized custom colors which are blown by
the inkjet airbrush (30; 30') onto an object (26). In response to firing
signals(38), a printhead (35) ejects a custom blend of colors (40) which are
combined in a mixing chamber (46) and then atomized using any type of
atomizer (42; 90) desired. The firing signals (38) may be generated by a
remote device, such as a computer (60), or they may be generated on-board the
inkjet airbrush (30; 30') in response to a user input (64, 65, 70, 100, 104), such
as a code selected from a color chart. The amount of colorant passing through
the airbrush (30; 30') may be varied by varying the firing signal frequency. The
inkjet airbrush (30; 30') provides fast color changes and faster clean-up than
conventional systems. A method of applying a fluid (25) on an object (26) is
also provided.

Abstract: A method for calculating a distance between a first point and a second point using linear interpolation is provided. The first point and the second point are located between a first latitude and a second latitude. An interpolated prime vertical radius of curvature value for a point between the first point and the second point is calculated based on a first prime vertical radius of curvature value for the first latitude and a second prime vertical radius of curvature value for the second latitude. An interpolated meridian radius of curvature value for the point between the first point and the second point is calculated based on a first meridian radius of curvature value for the first latitude and a second meridian radius of curvature value for the second latitude. An interpolated cosine value for the point between the first point and the second point is calculated based on a value representing a cosine of the first latitude and a value representing a cosine of the second latitude. The distance between the first point and the second point is then calculated based on the interpolated prime vertical radius of curvature value, the interpolated meridian radius of curvature value, and the interpolated cosine value. The use of interpolated prime vertical radius of curvature, meridian radius of curvature, and cosine avoids use of non-linear function evaluation. As a result, the process is efficient and the calculated distances are sufficiently accurate.

Abstract: In a servo operation, position-controlling light, which
is red light, is projected onto a recording medium so as to
converge to a minimum diameter on a reflecting surface of the
recording medium. In a recording operation, information light
and recording-specific reference light, each of which is green
light, are projected coaxially onto one side of an information
recording layer of the recording medium so as to converge to a
minimum diameter at an identical position located off the
reflecting surface. Information is recorded in the information
recording layer in the form of an interference pattern
resulting from interference between the information light yet
to impinge on the reflecting surface and the recording-specific
reference light reflected by the reflecting surface
and an interference pattern resulting from interference
between the recording-specific reference light yet to impinge
on the reflecting surface and the information light reflected
by the reflecting surface.

     The abovementioned acid generators of the present invention generate acid
by heat at relatively low temperatures, preventing the change in the ratio of the
composition due to evaporation of some components in the composition. Accordingly, it
has the advantageous effect that the ratio of components in the composition is controlled
and the preparation of the thin film with the wanted properties is simplified.
