Feeling the strain: Industry revenue declines as black tea sales come under pressure
IBISWorld's Tea Processing market research report is a comprehensive guide to market size and growth prospects. Our industry reports offer strategic industry analysis of the factors influencing companies, including new product developments, economic, lifestyle and demographic influences, distribution and supply chain factors and pricing issues. Full analysis accompanies our data forecasts to illustrate how the market responds to emerging industry trends.
Tea is a distinctly British beverage and more than 60 billion cups of tea are consumed per year in the United Kingdom alone. Britons are the world's second-biggest tea drinkers per capita and over 1,200 varieties of tea are sold across the United Kingdom. Most tea consumed in the United Kingdom is black tea, made primarily from a blend of East African and South Asian tea leaves. Since very little tea is actually grown in the United Kingdom, the industry is at the mercy of global supplies, which are affected by the weather, crop diseases, domestic political situations and other external factors... purchase to read more
Tea is the most consumed beverage in the United Kingdom and about 88% of households purchase tea as part of their weekly shop. The geographical spread of tea processors tends to follow population growth and per capita disposable income because very little tea is cultivated in the United Kingdom. Large multinational companies like Tetley and Unilever dominate the processing, blending, packaging and distribution of tea and are located close to their major customers.
North East
Tetley, for instance, operates its main processing centre at Eaglescliff in the North East, and has a distribution centre at Newton Aycliffe. However, the North East accounts for only 4.2% of the total population and has lower-than-average per capita incomes... purchase to read more
Establishments in this industry process and blend tea. They also manufacture extracts and preparations based on tea, in addition to packing tea in teabags and producing infused teas. Iced tea is not included in the industry.

A 21-year-old professional boxer was reportedly stabbed outside The Grail early Sunday morning. Shawn Phillip Hawk told authorities he went to the nightspot in Huetter with his girlfriend and a friend. He said he was walking to his car around closing time when he was approached by six to eight men, according to a report from the Kootenai County Sheriff's Department. According to the report, one of the men bumped into Hawk, and he felt a pinch on the back of his leg, above his knee. He said he then felt blood running down his leg and realized he had been stabbed. Hawk, a boxer under contract with The Coeur d'Alene Casino, said he wasn't interested in pressing charges in the stabbing — Spokesman-Review.

Free and cheap things to do in Miami - May 17-19
Miami on the Cheaps helps us find the best things to do on a budget.
As we head from spring into summer, we're finding lots of fun activities to do both inside and out. There is still time to enjoy street festivals and outdoor movies, but we also have some indoor options that are free and cheap.
Four South Florida attractions have released the Summer Savings Pass, which gives you unlimited access for one price through Sept. 30 to the Miami Seaquarium, ZooMiami, Lion Country Safari and the Museum of Discovery and Science in Fort Lauderdale. Miami Museum Month continues, and that means two-for-one admission to 23 South Florida museums, plus perks for members.
To keep up with latest news on deals, discounts and free events in South Florida, sign up for the daily Miami on the Cheap newsletter. For more tips on what to do this weekend, read the frequently updated Miami on the Cheap weekend roundup of free and cheap events.
Here are Miami on the Cheap's top picks for free and cheap weekend fun May 17-19.
All-night music party in Coral Gables
The 300 block of Alhambra Circle in Coral Gables will be turned into a giant dance floor and party scene from 5 p.m. Friday to 2 a.m. Saturday when The Globe Café throws its 10th annual CubaLibre BlockParty. The entertainment is free, with performances by Los 3 De La Habana, Edwin Bonilla y su Son, MC DJ El Russo and DJ Nelly. Food and drink will be for sale.
Grow your own fruit and shade
Miami-Dade County residents of single-family homes or duplexes can get two free trees a year from the county, and the first giveaway is Sunday in North Miami Beach. Residents can choose mango, carambola, pigeon plum, jackfruit or green buttonwood. The next country tree giveaways are in July and September.
Free cinema under the stars
Film lovers have a choice of free outdoor movies Friday night. In Brickell, the offering is "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade," at 8 p.m. Or, you can see "The Smurfs" at 8:15 p.m. at the North Shore Park Bandshell.
Marching 'oompah' Klezmer, Latin band
This may be your first chance ever to march along South Beach with a band of accordions. The "Accordion Invasion" begins at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at The Betsy Hotel and then heads toward Lincoln Road starting at 7 p.m. The evening ends in a free concert at 8 p.m. at ArtCenter South Florida. The event is sponsored by Next @19th and features Klezmer musician Shlomo Geva and Latin accordion diva Maricarmen Vazquez.
Food truck roundup and free concert
It's time for the monthly Wheelin', Dealin' Street Food Festival at Magic City Casino in Miami, which goes from 5 to 10 p.m. Saturday. At 9 p.m., you can see a free concert by Aaron Carter, the pop and hip-hop singer who is in the midst of his national After Party Tour.

Rick Ross - Maybach Music Pt. 2 ft. Kanye West, Lil Wayne, & T-Pain
Artist: Rick Ross
Featuring: Kanye West, Lil Wayne, T-Pain
Producer: J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League
Album: Deeper Than Rap
Avg Rating: 4.2 ( 125 votes )
On a track off his sophomore album, Trilla, Rick Ross teamed up with Hova to introduce listeners to a bangin' new genre called Maybach Music. Judging by the four-star average that cut earned when it hit the Booth back in March of '08, the newly-released Pt. 2 couldn't be an easier sell—essentially, it's like part one, only moreso: more high-rolling lyricism, more epic, orchestral production by the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, and, of course, more big-name collaborators. After a sweeping hook by Autotune maestro T-Pain, Martin Louis Vuitton, Jr. steps up the plate to stunt about his cars, his sex appeal, and his notoriously tight clothing. A pumped-up second verse from the 305 Boss himself, followed by a metaphor-laced closing contribution by Lil Wayne complete this epic musical sequel (and potential single). Deeper Than Rap hits stores on the 21st, and fans should stay tuned for a possible exclusive interview with Ross next week.

Mesa 7.8.1 Emergency Release Coming Today
Published on 05 April 2010 03:00 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
1 Comment
Mesa 7.8
was only
released one week ago
, but an "emergency" release of Mesa 7.8.1 will be arriving in just a few hours.
Normally, Mesa 7.8.1 would not be released for a couple months until Mesa 7.9.0 is ready. The first point release usually comes when the next major release is ready and just carries various bug-fixes atop the older code-base. With Mesa 7.8, however, that clean-up release looks like it will be Mesa 7.8.2.
Mesa 7.8.1 is coming today as it was discovered that the glxext header file contains incorrect values against the Khronos OpenGL specification -- specifically for GLX_BUFFER_SWAP_COMPLETE_INTEL_MASK. Ian Romanick will now be pulling the latest glxext.h file into Mesa and then releasing it as Mesa 7.8.1.
This release of Mesa 7.8.1 should occur today as stated by his
emergency email message
. No other changes are expected for Mesa 7.8.1.

But.. but.. I don't want an armored bear.
that's bearly 5IP per vote, people shouldn't do it just for the sake of IP, do it for the greater good
Honestly I've been suspended a few times now from being trolled and then going off on people, but I this won't be a QQ post. Who knows? Maybe the community's better off being filled with bad players that report everyone/have no backbone.
We've all been raised in an era worried about "self-esteem" and "self-worth" when we do nothing to deserve to feel these. Therefore, I won't blame riot for falling into the pit of what the US and most of the world has become, I'm going to blame the US.
Why oh why have we put things like no child left behind and antibullying laws? I was bullied like hell through highschool until I almost broke someone's back for merely bumping into me. Problem solved and I felt good about myself. I finally EARNED the respect and selfworth that I've felt were lackluster in people telling me I was awesome in everything I did. It finally had meaning.
Lets relate this to LoL. When I get a good team and we work together + do something great (even had a few games where we just weren't good enough and lost in a tournament) I feel good about myself and so does everyone on the team. We genuinely made accepted the outcome of our actions and became better players because of it.
Now, take a step back and lets say my team did completely horrible, didn't listen, fed, etc. Then they get the rightful feeling of feeling horrible about themselves for not listening or being open to learning something new. Give them the ability to feel good about themselves by reporting the "offending" player that hurt their feeling of selfworth/selfesteem AND make it OK for them to never learn. You literally get what's happening in the US today, people that never leave home or get a job. They feel great about themselves, but in reality are worth nothing. Then they complain about not having a job having never actually followed up on any application or actively sought to help themselves.
But wait, I have MORE ties to what tribunal is doing and it may even blow your mind. What about the people that search for help due to their failures? That's right, I'm talking about welfare. Don't get me wrong, I know some people in RL actually DO need welfare, but I'm also very aware of all the people that abuse it. Riot has LITERALLY given people the ability to abuse a free source of IP and punish every case without even reading the article (I believe they just watch youtube for the cooldown to click punish or browse 4chan).
Junior Member
I've had some friends who got banned, problem is they don't know exactly what they got banned for. I think that's a major Tribunal downfall. So, you got banned once, you are a bit more careful once you can play again, BUT since you don't know what exactly has caused the ban you eventually go on doing to what you're used to. They get banned again, once more no idea what for. and so on...
Too bad half of those stats are either fake, biased on compiled in a very "Ideal" way.
Ko Hakoo
Awesome. Tribunal was by far the best addition to the game this year. If only it worked faster.
ok.......so how many of those people were innocent yet got banned?
EDIT: you think i'm wrong? on the forums, i bet there are a couple of innocent people who got punished by the tribunal just because of saying 1 or 2 words.
also, saying offenders lose games is incorrect inference of the statistic. People are more inclined to report a player when they lost the game rather than if they won. In other words if you win, and you had a bad teammate you are more likely to let it slide, rather than reporting.
the second being reported by their own team rather than enemy team has zero relation to offenders making bad teammates.
I would say tribunal is awesome, but I literally see the same people in normal games, and ranked games at night who just troll, or are just plain bad and I report them over.... and over... and over... and over... and they're still walking around. Like last night, I saw a guy in my ranked game who literally made us lose. People always say, "one person can't lose a game for an entire team" that's a lie. He literally lost us the game by running into the team when no one was around, and we'd run in to save him/ get kills and we'd all just die. Stuff like that. And I go to a normal game right after that (upset after my loss) and who do I see? The same Mundo player... Happens so much it's not even funny. Pretty sure i'm not the only one who reported people like him but yet they never seem to get banned... I've played Mundo, hes a solid champ if you build him well. His early game is scary, his mid game as well. Kinda falls off late game if he gets cc'd to death. Just don't understand where at 1.4% comes from when I see plenty of trolls running around... Rather ranty post, ill admit. Just frustrating.

The Cuba Cardholder from Vernakular is great for doing what its name suggests, but it's also a smart way to stash your cash. It's super thin, so it slips right into your back pocket, it's made from genuine leather and fully lined, and it features a pocket in the middle. But what really sets this versatile accessory apart is that it's got art on it. Printed with a photograph by Raoul E. Calleja, we'd say this cardholder-slash-wallet is right on the money!
Photograph taken in Havana, Cuba. Cardholder measures 4" x 3.5".
Please note: As the cardholder ages, the image may fade. This gives it a distinct worn-in, vintage look.

A plurality of projectors are positioned in spaced relationship about an object with a surface to be geometrically analyzed. The projectors have cooperating masks which project onto the object illuminated patterns that subdivide the object into predetermined sections. Each mask has a predetermined pattern of sections, and is applied in sequence. The masks are cooperatively advanced in the projectors, with a separate illuminating pattern prevailing on the object each time that the masks are advanced. The combinations of the patterns on the masks define closely-spaced sections subdividing the object. The patterns are coded so that each section is uniquely defined in coded form. Cameras having the entire object within their field of view, photograph the object each time a separate mask is applied. The patterns or sections are parallel planes projected through a mask onto the object.
1. An arrangement for projecting a plurality of parallel lines onto a surface comprising in combination: a source of electromagnetic radiations; said lines having a spacing independent of the distance to said surface from said source; means with focal point for condensing radiated energy rays from said source and focusing them to a condensed bundle onto a plane containing the focal point of said condensing means; projecting means having a focal point coinciding with the focal point of said condensing means, energy rays leaving said projecting means being substantially parallel in one direction; and mask means between said condenser means and the focal point thereof, said mask means carrying lines parallel to each other and to be projected onto said surface; planes containing said energy rays between said projecting means and said surface being parallel to each other, lines on said mask means being projected by said projecting means as parallel elements spaced from each other independent of distance of points on said surface from said mask means; the spacing between any two lines, being constant along the distance between said projecting means and said surface and independent of the magnitude of said distance; an observer with an eye in a plane parallel to said planes containing said energy rays and looking toward said projecting means seeing light coming from a line source parallel to said plane; the location of the line source being different for each plane.
2. The arrangement as defined in claim 1 including aperture means in said plane containing the focal point of said condensing means; said condensed bundle of energy rays having a predetermined dimension, said aperture means having an opening surrounding the focal point of said condensing means and said projecting means, said opening of said aperture means having a dimension substantially smaller than said predetermined dimension of said condensed bundle for inhibiting preselected rays in said bundle from being transmitted by said projecting means to prevent said lines from blurred border lines.
3. The arrangement as defined in claim 2 wherein said aperture means has an elongated slit-shaped opening having dimensions of width and length, the width of said slit extending in a direction normal to the parallel rays, the length of said slit-shaped opening being substantially greater than the width; said preselected rays being inhibited in said direction normal to the parallel rays, said bundle having a dimension parallel to said length of said aperture which is smaller than said aperture length so that energy rays in said bundle are uninhibited in a direction parallel to said length and are substantially transmitted by said projecting means.
4. The arrangement as defined in claim 1 including cylindrically-shaped reflector means behind said source of electromagnetic radiation for gathering and reflecting energy rays originating from the rear of said source, said cylindrically-shaped reflector means rays directing rays reflected by said reflector means onto said source or path from said source to said condensing means; and cylindrical lens means in front of said source for increasing the apparent size of said source in the direction normal to said one direction; said cylindrical reflector means having a focal line; said source comprising a plurality of sources located substantially on the focal line of said cylindrical reflector means.
5. The arrangement as defined in claim 1 wherein said mask means carries images of parallel planes to be projected onto said surface.
6. The arrangement as defined in claim 1 wherein said condensing means and said projecting means comprises cylindircal lenses.
7. The arrangement as defined in claim 1 wherein said projector means comprises a cylindrical reflector.
8. The arrangement as defined in claim 7 including auxiliary reflector means between said mask means and said plane containing said focal point.
9. The arrangement as defined in claim 2 including correcting lens means in front of said aperture means for correcting against aberration.
10. The arrangement as defined in claim 9 including auxiliary correcting lens means between said aperture means and said projecting means.
11. The arrangement as defined in claim 4 including plane reflector means on the sides of the path of said energy rays, the surface of said plane reflector means being normal to said focal line of said cylindrical reflector means.
12. The arrangement as defined in claim 4 wherein said source comprises a tungsten filament with coils, said cylindrical reflector means reflecting the energy rays so that they fill the open spaces of the coils of said filament for increasing the area of said source while retaining constant the overall size of said source.
13. The arrangement as defined in claim 3 wherein said energy rays leaving said projecting means diverge at an angle equal to the ratio of the width of said slit-shaped opening to the focal length of said projecting means.
14. A method for projecting a plurality of parallel lines onto a surface comprising the steps of: generating electromagnetically radiated energy rays; condensing said energy rays and focusing said rays to a condensed bundle on a predetermined plane, said condensed rays diverging after passing said predetermined plane; gathering and directing said rays after passing said predetermined plane so that said rays lie in first substantially parallel planes; said rays being also in second planes which are substantially non-parallel and orthagonal to said first planes; and modulating said rays for projecting onto said surface a plurality of parallel lines, planes containing said energy rays after said gathering and directing step to points on said surface being parallel to each other, said parallel lines projected onto said surface being spaced from each other independent of the distance of the points on said surface from said predetermined plane.
15. The method as defined in claim 14 including the step of blocking a portion of the rays at said predetermined plane, the rays being blocked in at least one direction for reducing divergence of the rays after gathering and projecting onto said surface.
This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 755,036 filed Dec. 28, 1976, now abandoned, which is a continuation-in-part of the patent application Ser. No. 608,265 filed Aug. 27, 1975, now abandoned.
In the reproduction or fabrication of objects with complex surfaces, it is often essential to determine the spatial locations of points on the surface. In order to reproduce or fabricate a surface with substantial precision, it is necessary to specify a substantially large number of closely-spaced points.
Heretofore, the measurements of points on a complex surface was carried out in a laborious manner by recording the positions of the points methodically until the surface has been specified with the required amount of precision. The taking of measurements of the points on the surface often involved making contact with the surface with an instrument, for example. The final amount of recorded data, furthermore, was voluminous and difficult to analyze. In view of the large amount of data which had to be recorded with respect to a large number of points in order to achieve a predetermined precision, it was particularly susceptible to the introduction of measuring and recording errors.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an arrangement in which an object is subdivided into a substantially large number of sections, so that points on the surface of the object may have their positions determined with substantially high resolution.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement in which each of the subdivided sections of the object is assigned a predetermined code which defines the section uniquely from the other sections.
A further object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement of the foregoing character in which the object is subdivided into sections with a minimum number of masks applied to achieve a predetermined resolution of sections and accompanying precision.
A still further object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement, as described, in which the spatial positions of points within each section may be determined by correlating the points to a reference surface photographed by cameras in cooperation with the projectors and masks.
A particular object of the present invention is to project onto the surface, parallel planes which have sharply defined border lines and are parallel with a substantially high degree of precision.
The objects of the present invention are achieved by arranging a plurality of projectors with masks about the object with the surface to be geometrically analyzed. Each projector projects a light beam through the respective mask and applies a collimated projected pattern onto the object, which subdivides the object into predetermined sections. For each mask that is applied, the projector illuminates preselected sections of the object. Thie illuminated and non-illuminated sections combine to form a predetermined pattern corresponding to an assigned code. The masks are advanced in the projector in sequence, and produce a separate pattern of illumination on the object for each applied mask. The different patterns, when taken in combination, subdivide the object into a substantially large number of sections, in accordance with a predetermined digital code. The code is selected, in accordance with the present invention, so that a large number of subdivided sections are obtained for a relatively few number of masks or projected patterns on the object.
Each pattern of sections associated with a mask, is photographed by cooperating cameras which have the entire surface within their field of view. The photographs taken by the cameras are correlated to photographs taken similarly of a reference object to establish the spatial locations of points on the surface of the object.
The projectors spaced about the obect with the surface to be analyzed, have cooperating masks so that the illuminated pattern from one projector cooperates correspondingly with the illuminated pattern of the remaining projectors. The plurality of projectors positioned about the object, serve to cover the entire surface of the object.
Selective illumination of the surface by the projectors may be carried out by any one of various forms of electromagnetic radiation available, and the subdivision of the object into sections may be carried out along advantageous axes.
An optical focusing and aperture arrangement is provided so that sharply defined parallel planes are projected onto the surface of the object with a collimated beam.
The novel features which are considered as characteristic for the invention are set forth in particular in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, both as to its construction and method of operation, together with additional objects and advantages thereof, will be best understood from the following description of specific embodiments, when read in connection with the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view and shows the relative arrangement of the surface to be analyzed or investigated, the projectors, and the cameras, in accordance with the present invention;

FIG. 7 is a front view of a still further embodiment for obtaining a collimated beam of light;
FIG. 8 is a plan view of the arrangement of FIG. 7;
FIG. 9 is a plan view of a coding mask on a film used in the embodiment of FIGS. 7 and 8;
FIG. 10 is a schematic elevational view and shows an embodiment for obtaining sharply defined parallel planes with collimated light projected onto the surface of the object, in accordance with the present invention;
FIG. 11 is a plan view of an aperture element in the arrangement of FIG. 10;
FIG. 12 is another embodiment of the arrangement of FIG. 10, in which the projector element is in the form of a reflector;
FIG. 13 is a further embodiment of the arrangement of FIG. 12;
FIG. 14 is an additional embodiment of the arrangement of FIG. 10 with means for correcting against aberration;
FIG. 15 is a further embodiment of the arrangement of FIG. 14;
FIG. 16 is a plan view and shows the construction of a light source with cylindrical optical elements, in accordance with the present invention.
Referring now to the drawing and in particular to FIG. 1, an object 20 with surface 22 to be geometrically analyzed, is placed on a support 24. Projectors 26, 28, 30, 32 are positioned in spaced relationship about the object 20 for the purpose of covering the entire surface of the object or a predetermined portion thereof. Each projector applies a collimated illuminating beam 34 to the object 20. In the paths of the collimated illuminating beams, are masks 36 which may be advanced in sequence on the projectors.
Each mask 36 may be conveniently placed on a rolled strip of film 37, as shown in FIG. 3 for example. The masks may be advanced in sequence in the respective projector, in an accurately registered manner, by means of sprocket holes 38 located along the edges of the strip of film. The film can be rolled and stored on reels in a conventional manner. The advancing or transporting of film in the light path of a projector is well known in the art, and for this reason is not described in further detail here. At the same time, separate slides each containing a separate mask may be used in conjunction with a projector instead of a strip of film containing a plurality of sequenced masks.
During the period of time that a particular mask is present in a projector, preselected portions of the surface 22 are illuminated by the illuminating beam applied by the projector through the mask. The illumination of the preselected sections is carried out on the basis that the surface 22 is to be subdivided into a substantially large number of sections for a relatively few number of masks. Thus, a relatively few number of masks or illuminating patterns used in conjunction with the projector, provide sufficient data for subdividing the surface 22 into a substantially large number of sections or intervals to obtain sections of high resolution. When the projectors 26, 28, 30, and 32 are operated cooperatively, all projectors are provided with identical masks having identical patterns thereon. This arrangement permits covering the surface of the object and avoids shadow effects which may arise when using only a single projector.
The relationship between the number of masks 36 used in conjunction with a projector, and the number of subdivided sections of the surface 22 is obtained in the following manner.
If the surface 22 is to be subdivided into N sections corresponding to a predetermined precision of resolution, then this quantity N may be expressed by the series of binary terms
From this series of binary terms, it may be seen that a substantially large number N may be obtained for a relatively few terms present in the sequence. To apply this principle to the present invention, each binary term in the sequence is made to correspond to a single mask pattern projected on the surface 22. For each mask, a predetermined pattern of illumination is applied, corresponding to the particular binary term involved. Thus, for the binary term 21, for example, the illuminating pattern of FIG. 2a is produced. In this pattern, the surface 22 is subdivided into two sections or intervals. The illuminated section in FIG. 2 is shown in cross-hatched form. The non-illuminated section is left vacant. In a similar manner, the binary term 22 is represented by the illuminating pattern of FIG. 2b. In FIG. 2b, the surface 22 is subdivided into four sections. FIG. 2c corresponds, accordingly, to the binary term 23, and in this FIG. 2c, the surface 22 is subdivided into eight sections or intervals.
Each illuminating pattern as represented by FIGS. 2a, 2b, and 2c, for example, is photographed by cameras 40 which have the entire surface 22 within their field of view. Whereas only three patterns are represented in the drawing to correspond to three separate binary terms, in practice the cameras 40 photograph each pattern separately for as many binary terms as are necessary to obtain the quantity N. For each photograph taken by the cameras 40, moreover, the projectors 26, 28, 30, 32 project onto the object, a single pattern of a single mask.
The sectionalized pattern on the masks may be obtained, for example, by producing the film or slides with alternating sections or areas that will transmit and inhibit the transmission of light. The photographs 44 taken by the cameras 40 of the sectionalized patterns appearing on the object 20, are shown in FIG. 2.
In the use of the pure binary code to express the number N of subdivisions of the surface 22, as described above, each subdivision or band is assigned a unique code which serves to identify uniquely each band from the other remaining bands. Thus, bands numbered 5, 6 and 7 have, respectively, assigned codes 101000, 011000, and 111000. In a similar manner, every other band from the first one to the last one (band N) has a uniquely assigned binary code.
In accordance with the present invention, therefore, a relationship exists between the binary coded bands and the number of photographs 44 taken by the cameras 40. The relationship makes it possible for a relatively small number of photographs to include complete information of a substantially large number of bands. Thus, only ten photographs are required, for example, to specify completely 1,000 bands.
In the operation of the projectors and masks, in accordance with the present invention, it is desirable for the projectors to provide collimated beams of light. One method of obtaining a collimated beam of light for use in conjunction with the present invention, is shown in FIG. 4. In this arrangement, a source of light or illumination 52 directs light through a condenser 54 which serves as a collimating lens. The light emerging from the collimating lens 54 will still diverge somewhat, and for purposes of improving the beam of light at substantial distance from the lens 54, collimating masks 56 are further provided. These collimating masks 56 serve to limit the light path to the extent that a substantial collimated beam of light can be directed through the masks of FIG. 3, for example.
In another embodiment for obtaining collimated beams of light, the source of illumination 52 is operated in conjunction with a cylindrical lens 58 and a cylindrical reflecting surface 60, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6. After reflecting from the cylindrical surface 60, the light is further passed through collimating masks 56 in FIG. 5, for the purpose of further improving the light beam for use in conjunction with the masks. The arrangement of FIG. 5 uses, thereby, a cylindrical lens and a cylindrical reflecting surface to replace the condenser 54.
For purposes of obtaining substantially uniform light distribution along the length of a coding mask, the source of light or illumination may be in the form of, for example, three light sources distributed uniformly along the length of the coded masks, as shown in FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a plan view of FIG. 5. In this arrangement of using multiple light sources, each separate light source is provided with a separate cylindrical lens 58, as shown in FIG. 6.
In a still further embodiment for obtaining collimated beams of light in the projectors of the present invention, a multiple number of light sources 52 distributed along the length of a coding mask, direct light through individual cylindrical focusing lenses 58, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. FIG. 8 is a plan view of FIG. 7. The light passing through the individual focusing lenses 58, is directed, furthermore, through a single condenser 62 used for the purpose of distributing uniformly the light from the individual lenses 58 across the length of the coding mask, and to collimate the beam. In the use of the arrangement of FIGS. 7 and 8, the light after passing through the collimating masks 56, passes through one of the masks 36 on the film strip 37.
In accordance with a particularly advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the collimated light beam for projecting parallel planes on the surface of the object 20, is produced in accordance with the arrangement of FIG. 10. A cone of light 53 from the source 52 is applied to a condenser lens system 70 through which the light passes in a path indicated schematically by 71. A mask or slide 72 with the planar configuration which is to be projected onto the object, is located in front of the condenser system 70. The latter condenses the light and focuses the rays to the focal point thereof at the location 74. After passing through the slide or mask 72, the cone of condensed light is represented in FIG. 10 by the outline 76.
After passing through the focal point 74, the rays diverge again and a divergent cone of light 78 is applied to a projector lens 80. The projector lens 80 is located so that its focal point coincides with the point 74. The emerging light beam 82 from the projector lens 80, is applied to the object surface 22, for example.
In practice, the light source 52 is not a point source, and as a result of the finite physical size of the source, the light rays 76 are not focused to a point 74, but to a substantially small circular area having a finite diameter. As a result of the light being focused to such a small area instead of a point, the light beam 82 emerging from the projector lens 80 is not a precisely parallel beam. Instead, the beam 82 diverges and projects onto the object surface 22 a blurred image on the slide or mask 72.
To avoid a blurred image of planes, an aperture 86 is located in the plane containing the focal point 74. This plane is also located at a distance f from the projector lens 80, which is equal to the focal length of this lens.
The aperture 86 serves to reduce the area through which the condensed light may pass on its way to the projector lens 80. Thus, the aperture 86 has an opening of diameter D which is smaller than the diameter of the circular area to which the light rays 76 are condensed. By reducing the diameter D of the opening in the aperture element 86, the light rays 82 emerging from the projector lens 80 become less divergent, and as a result the image projected on the object surface 22 has a sharper definition. The relationship between the diameter D of the aperture opening and the divergence α of the light beam 82 is given by
From this relationship, it may be seen that the smaller the diameter D is made, the more precisely parallel will be the beam 82. The aperature element 86 serves to block a portion of the unwanted light focused in the plane of the aperture element 86 by the condenser system 70, and prevents, thereby, the appearance of a blurred image of non-parallel planes on the projected surface. In an ideal situation, the light source 52 is made a point source, and the condenser system 70 focuses all of the light from the source to a focal point 74 instead of a small finite area in the plane containing that point. Under such ideal conditions, the aperture element 86 is not required, since blockage of light rays is not needed.
In the use of the present invention for projecting parallel planes on an object surface, precisely parallel rays are required only in the direction of a coordinate axis which is normal to the planes. Thus, if the planes are projected as horizontal planes in the configuration of FIG. 1a, these planes are normal to the Z axis. Under those conditions, it is essential that the projected light rays do not diverge along the Z axis, but remain instead normal to this axis. In the direction parallel to the planes, however, the light rays may be permitted to diverge. Thus, when viewing the plan view of FIG. 1, the light rays may diverge along the Y or X axis. Non-parallel rays in these Y and X directions will not interfere with sharply defined planes projected on the object surface, if the rays are parallel to each other and normal to the Z axis, for example. When the light rays are permitted to diverge in this manner, in one direction but not in the other, the aperture element 86 may be constructed as shown in FIG. 11. The aperture opening under these conditions, is in the form of an elongated slot having a width D and a length L exceeding substantially the dimension of the slot width. Thus, the aperture element 86 serves to restrict light passage in the Z direction, but does not restrict the passage of light in the X direction. These directions shown in FIG. 11 are consistent with those shown in FIGS. 1 and 1a.
When the number of planes to be projected exceed the number of planes which can be imaged by a single arrangement as shown in FIG. 10, then it is possible to stack several such arrangements or systems as in FIG. 10, one on top of the other, for example, so that any desired number of projected planes may be obtained. Similarly, projectors may be stacked side by side in the X direction so as to project planes that are wider than is obtainable from a single system such as shown in FIG. 10. Accordingly, a multiple number of systems of FIG. 10 may be stacked in both the Z and X directions to obtain the desired configuration of planes. In view of such configuration of planes and the construction of the aperture element 86 as shown in FIG. 11, it is possible to use cylindrical lenses instead of spherical lenses for the optical elements in the system. The curvature of such cylindrical lenses would then lie in the Z-X or Z-Y planes (FIGS. 1 and 1a), but not in the Y-X plane.
In applying the arrangement of FIGS. 10 and 11, it is not essential that all of the elements be located along a single straight-lined axis. Instead, a more compact unit may be obtained with the construction shown in FIG. 12. In this FIG. 12, a mirror 88 is used in place of the projecting lens 80 and serves as both a projecting and deflecting element, whereby the beam of light is deflected in direction from the aperture element 86 to the object surface 22. In this construction of FIG. 12, the projector unit may be made smaller or more compact, since the elements 52, 70, 72 and 86 are located within the space between the projecting mirror 88 and the object surface 22.
FIG. 13 shows an alternate construction in which an additional reflecting surface or mirror 90 is used to further deflect the beam onto the projecting mirror 88. This arrangement permits the light source to be substantially beneath the mirror 88 and to direct the light rays in a direction other than directly onto the mirror surface 88. Thus, the additional reflector 90 permits additional flexibility in positioning the light source 52 together with the condenser unit 70 and the slide 72.
To correct for aberrations, a correcting lens 92 may be placed in front of the aperture element 86, as shown in FIG. 14. An additional correcting lens 94 may be located between the aperture element 86 and the projecting lens 88, as shown in FIG. 15. The lens 94 has also the effect of reducing the length of the optical path between the light source 52 and the projecting lens 88, so that the projecting system may be constructed as a more compact unit.
Commensurate with the construction of the aperture element 86 as shown in FIG. 11, in which the width D of the slit is made very narrow while the length L of the slit is substantially unrestricted, the light source may be arranged in accordance with the construction of FIG. 16. This figures shows the arrangement in which the light source is comprised of multiple elements 52a, 52b and 52c, for example. These multiple elements are located side-by-side along the longitudinal direction of the slit or aperture opening. The effect of such a multiple arrangement of light elements, is to increase the intensity of light of the plane images that are projected on the object surface 22, without reducing the sharp definition of the projected planes. Thus, the light source for this purpose, may be considered a line source which lies in the Y-X plane when considering the views of FIGS. 1 and 1a. The line source may be approximated by close spacing of the multiple elements 52a, 52b and 52c, or an elongated line-shaped filament may be applied for this source.
To further aid in gathering the light rays which originate from the source and direct them towards the condenser system 70, a cylindrical reflecting surface 96 may be located behind the sources 52a, 52b and 52c. As already noted above, the reflector 96 may have a cylindrical surface rather than a spherical surface, for the purpose of imaging planes on the surface 84. Additional cylindrical lenses 98 may be located in front of the sources, moreover, for the purpose of increasing their apparent size in the Y-X plane, without increasing their size in the Z-X plane, for example. To aid in relating FIG. 16 with respect to FIGS. 1 and 1a, reference coordinate axes Y-X are shown in FIG. 16.
To prevent loss of light resulting from diverging rays, planar reflecting surfaces 100 may be located on the side of the optical path, as shown in FIG. 16. Such plane mirrors 100 have their plane surfaces lying in the Z-X plane. The side reflectors 100 serve to redirect the light energy, that would otherwise be lost, into the optical system for imaging planes onto the surface 84.
The reflector 96 at the back of the light sources, also provide for an improvement in the source by imaging rays reflected by its surface so that these rays fill in the open spaces of coils of the filaments, in the case of a tungsten filament, for example. By filling in these open spaces of the filament coils, the area of the source is increased without increasing the overall size of the source.
Without further analysis, the foregoing will so fully reveal the gist of the present invention, that others can, by applying current knowledge, readily adapt it for various applications without omitting features that, from the standpoint of prior art, fairly constitute essential characteristics of the generic or specific aspects of this invention, and therefore, such adaptations should and are intended to be comprehended within the meaning and range of equivalence of the following claims.

Fort Worth is launching a review of its master thoroughfare plan aimed at accommodating continued suburban growth and central city redevelopment with a greater variety of streets and more efficient traffic flow.
Longtime Fort Worth businessman, philanthropist and preservationist Holt Hickman died Nov. 15, 2014, at the age of 82.
A key linchpin in the Fort Worth economy, American Airlines Group Inc., is considering sites for a new headquarters, possibly outside the city, the airline's CEO said this morning.
Residents of West Fort Worth's Crestwood Association are trying to block the rezoning of a small apartment complex at White Settlement Road and North Bailey Avenue to make way for a planned office building, saying it would represent the start of commercial encroachment into their neighborhood.
Rarely does Golf Digest make the news. Leave it to Dan Jenkins to change that.
Fort Worth-based AutoStar Solutions Inc., a national provider of management software to independent automotive dealerships and finance companies, has launched a joint venture with SendMeAFriend, an online referral system headquartered in Round Rock, Texas.
AutoStar is the first Dealer Management System to partner with SendMeAFriend. The new relationship will allow AutoStar clients to bring new prospects to their dealerships and increase sales by automating the lead referral process.
"The greatest resource in any business is its customers," said Gary Brophy, president and CEO of SendMeAFriend. "What we're doing here is giving independent dealerships a way to leverage their relationships with their customers to bring in new prospects who are in the market for a used vehicle."
Once the dealer completes a sale, the customer is contacted by SendMeAFriend's call center to inform them about the referral program. Interested customers are then entered into the online system where customers are encouraged to enter information on potential prospects. The information is sent to the dealership, and the referring customer is compensated with an amount set by the dealer for any closed business. SendMeAFriend tracks referrals, vehicles sold and the payments made through the system.
