Provided is a multiple-function, stackable spice container having one or more containers that are configured to be stacked, where the containers are attached through complementary threaded portions. The apparatus also includes a removable accessory, configured to removably engage the complementary threaded portions. An apparatus may alternatively utilize one or more containers and an attaching structure for coupling the container and an accessory, configured to removably engage one of the containers at the attaching structure.

An architecture for heterogeneous data processing which reuses the same hardware to process different data in different manners is disclosed. The different processing has a substantial similarity; such as performing different variations of a computation. For example, the computation may involve the same mathematical operations but use different constants or coefficients, or performing similar arithmetic operations that can be switched such as addition and subtraction, or performing arithmetic operations in different orders, etc. The different processing might be applying different convolution kernels depending on the pixel color. The differences between the kernels could include different kernel sizes, different coefficient locations, and different coefficient values. The same hardware is re-used for all of the similar computations, under the control of external control logic that allows hardware re-use.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for efficiently performing digital signal processing is provided. In one embodiment, kernel matrix computations are simplified by grouping similar kernel coefficients together. Each coefficient group contains only coefficients having the same value. At least one of the coefficient groups has at least two coefficients. Techniques are disclosed herein to efficiently apply successive first order difference operations to a data signal. The techniques allow for a low gate count. In particular, the techniques allow for a reduction of the number of multipliers without increasing clock frequency, in an embodiment. The techniques update pixels of a data signal at a rate of two clock cycles per each pixel, in an embodiment. The techniques allow hardware that is used to process a first pixel to be re-used to start the processing of a second pixel while the first pixel is still being processed.

Method and system for backlash control in gear trains that are driven by electric drives controlled by a drive controller. The drive controller causes the drives to generate continuously opposing torques and adjusts torque rotational offsets so as to maintain desired backlash and gross motion of the driven gear.

摘要:
Overlaminated faceless PSA label constructions of this invention comprise a low material cost, thin prelaminate PSA construction having a layer of pressure-sensitive material disposed on a release surface of a removable substrate, and a nonblocking continuous film disposed over a surface of the layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive to render the pressure-sensitive adhesive tack free. An optically transparent overlaminate film layer is disposed over the nonblocking continuous film, and a printed indicia is interposed between the overlaminate film layer and nonblocking continuous film. The prelaminate PSA construction does not include a conventional facestock formed from paper, cardboard or plastic, and is highly conformable. The overlaminated film layer can be applied to the prelaminate faceless PSA construction by pressure lamination, via a further PSA layer interposed between continuous film and the overlaminate film layer, or by heat and pressure by forming one of the continuous film or overlaminate film layers from a heat-activatable material that itself forms a laminating adhesive surface. Alternatively, the overlaminate film layer can be applied to the prelaminate PSA construction as a film-forming material. The overlaminated PSA construction has a sufficient Gurley stiffness to permit high-speed converting and dispensing by peel plate equipment without sacrificing the high degree of conformity provided by the underlying prelaminate PSA construction.
摘要:
A lubricant composition dispensing device comprising a hollow body (1) which houses a collecting pipe (2) is described. The collecting pipe has perforations (2b) that allows for lubricant composition to extend to a high density felt cloth (5) which contacts and delivers the lubricant composition to conveyor belts.
