20100072016 | Mechanical Clutch for V-Belt System - A mechanical clutch for use in a belt driven system requiring belt tensioning. The clutch includes a central shaft to be coupled to a rotating shaft, a first pulley rotationally and axially coupled to the central shaft, and a second pulley rotationally coupled to the central shaft configured to move axially relative to the first pulley along the central shaft. The clutch further includes an actuating mechanism configured to impart linear axial movement to the first pulley based on rotational input. | 03-25-2010 |

20090168082 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR AN OUTPUT LOOKUP TABLE DESIGN AND DATA ACCESS LAYER IN COLOR MANAGEMENT RESOURCE ENGINES - Methods and apparatus for saving and re-using lookup tables (LUTs) used in generating color data objects in a presentation/printing system. A data object is generated by a device or application having an associated input ICC profile and is transferred to a presentation device having one or more associated output ICC profiles. The data object is converted from its input color space to a color space of the presentation device based on calculated LUTs. Once calculated, the LUTs are saved in a memory of the presentation device to be re-used for processing of a subsequent data object. The saved LUTs are indexed using the object ID (OID) of the ICC output profile used to calculate the LUT. A subsequent data object may specify use of the same ICC output profile such that the previously calculated LUT may be retrieve and re-used to obviate the calculation burden to recalculate the LUT. | 07-02-2009 |
20090279142 | Mechanism for K-only object rendering in a high-speed color controller - Embodiments of the invention disclose a method for K-only (gray/black) object rendering in a high-speed color controller of a printing system. The method includes setting a flag to indicate selection of a K-only text and barcode print preference from a user of a print system, receiving one or more objects to be printed by the print system, the one or more objects including at least one of a text object and a barcode object, determining whether an input color space for the at least one text object and barcode object should be converted to K-only black ink, and rendering the at least one of the text object and the barcode object as K-only black ink if the input color space is determined to be converted to K-only black ink. | 11-12-2009 |
20100128292 | DYNAMIC EARLY PREPARATION OF PRESENTATION OBJECTS FOR EFFICIENT PRINTING - A command is provided as a means to instruct a printer to pre-rasterize and store presentation objects according to specified presentation parameters. The stored rasterized objects are available to the printer for use during printing when a print job is submitted to the printer which includes a presentation object already rasterized, saving significant processing at print time. The rasterized objects are stored with information identifying the object and the parameters used in the rasterization process and the printer is enabled to identify the appropriate rasterized object for inclusion in the print job. Objects may also be selected by a printer at print time as most closely matching the required parameters and then adjusted as needed at print time to completely conform with the requirements of inclusion in the job. This capability allows the printer to perform trimming-on-the-fly or other real-time operations while enjoying the time-saving benefits of a pre-rasterized object. | 05-27-2010 |

20140254862 | ENHANCED ANALYSIS FOR IMAGE-BASED SERPENTINE BELT WEAR EVALUATION - Systems and methods are provided for the improvement of an image of a device under test, such as a belt. The image of device under test is made more optimal by determining if the object is rotated away from a preferred axis of the image frame. If so, the image is rotated an opposing angle such that the object is parallel to the preferred axis of the image frame. The rotated image is then made available for analysis of the object. Rib width analysis is performed along the entire length of the detected rib by either de-rotating the image or not. | 09-11-2014 |

20130058560 | MEASUREMENT OF BELT WEAR THROUGH EDGE DETECTION OF A RASTER IMAGE - Tools for determining belt wear are provided. Specifically, non-contact based systems and processes are described which enable a quick and accurate measurement of belt wear. Based on the measurements of belt wear, a wear condition for the belt can be determined. Information regarding the wear condition can then be used to determine an appropriate remedial measure for responding to the determined wear condition. | 03-07-2013 |

20110090095 | Method and Apparatus for Displaying Toll Charging Parameters - The invention relates to methods and apparatus for displaying toll charging parameters of vehicles by means of a roadside display. In one embodiment, parameters are sent from an onboard-unit of the vehicle to the roadside display. In an alternative embodiment, parameters are registered under a vehicle identification in a database and retrieved therefrom for displaying on the roadside display by a detection of the identification of the vehicle. | 04-21-2011 |
20110282717 | METHOD FOR COLLECTING TOLLS FOR LOCATION USAGES - A method for collecting tolls for location usages of an on-board unit, which has a unit identifier in a road toll system and a mobile telecommunications identifier in a mobile telecommunications network. The method includes storing the unit identifier and the mobile telecommunications identifier of the on-board unit in a control centre of the road toll system, sending the position-fix data from the on-board unit, under the mobile telecommunications identifier as sole identification, to a toll calculation server, calculating location-anonymised toll data in the toll calculation server, and sending said toll data under the mobile telecommunications identifier to a control centre of the mobile telecommunications network, charging a user account assigned to the mobile telecommunications identifier in the control centre of the mobile telecommunications network, sending a confirmation to the control centre of the road toll system under the mobile telecommunications identifier, and retrieving the unit identifier associated with the mobile telecommunications identifier and providing the confirmation in the control centre of the road toll system. | 11-17-2011 |
