Abstract:
The apparatus for transmitting a workpiece along a press line includes a support frame; a support frame driving unit; a plurality of air pipes; an air flow forming unit; a plurality of rollers; and a roller driving unit. The plurality of suction cups are provided at a perimeter of each of the rollers A plurality of air exhaust passages extends from an inner surface of each suction cup to a respective air passage are formed in each of the rollers, such that air within a closed space formed between the suction cup and the workpiece is exhausted to the air passage by a difference between a pressure within the closed space and a pressure in the air passage.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for separating picture image areas in facsimile machines, scanners, and other picture processing equipment, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for separating picture regions by extracting features of graphic image and characters includes a vertical contouring circuit for producing vertical contour data by combining vertical components of an original picture and binary picture data; a horizontal contouring circuit for producing horizontal contour data from horizontal components of the binary picture data; a logic combiner for combining outputs from the vertical and horizontal contouring circuits and a halftone picture; a mode discriminator for selecting between a binary picture and contouring mode; an image area separator for separating image areas with an output from the logic combiner and a halftone picture, and a counter for executing pixel counting from a halftone picture to determine the probability of the presence of a character.
