Abstract:
The color device (300) has a core (302) with hues that gradually change whiteness, respectively. The discs have hues covering an entire color spectrum at a certain level of whiteness. All hues of the first and second discs (308, 306) have the first and second level of whiteness, respectively. The discs extend perpendicularly outwardly from the core. The first disc (308) is axially remote from the second disc (306) so that a distance (d) is formed therebetween. The discs are aligned so that color cells of the first disc (308) axially aligned with color cells of the second disc (306) have identical hues except for different whiteness. The level of color saturation in the color cells is gradually increased radially outwardly from the core (302).
Abstract:
Assembly (2) for selecting matching colours to base colours of user articles. The assembly comprises a substrate (4) provided with a plurality of selection areas (5) that have mutually differing selection colours. The assembly further comprises a cover (6) having a first main surface (8) provided with a first base colour and having a second main surface (9). The cover is provided with a window (10). The assembly is provided with holding means (12) for holding the cover to the substrate in a first cover position wherein, by means of the window, at least one selection area is exposed. The second main surface is provided with a second base colour. The window and the holding means are arranged for holding the cover to the substrate in a second cover position wherein, by means of the window, at least one selection area is exposed.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an external force detection device capable of measuring with high resolution and making fixing of each component easy even for the case the external diameter of a device is made small. SOLUTION: The three groups of optical displacement sensors are arranged in 120° symmetry while centering the rotational symmetry axis, the light source for constituting each optical displacement sensor is provided on either of supporting part or the force receiving part. The light receiving element for constituting each optical displacement sensor is arranged on the other part on which the light source is provided in the supporting part or force receiving part, and the three groups of optical displacement sensors are constituted such that the force receiving part is interposed between the light sources and the light receiving elements.

PURPOSE: An apparatus and method is provided to allow an efficient quality control by controlling color of polyester chip in accordance with the result of analysis on the transmitted video signal. CONSTITUTION: An apparatus(100) for measuring polyester chip color, comprises an installation board(110) having an adjustable height; a rotating shaft(120) arranged upright by a bearing(122) fixed on the installation board, and which rotates in a single direction; a clutch bearing(130) arranged at the lower end of the rotating shaft, and which transfers a rotating force to the rotating shaft during the rotation in a direction and does not transfer a rotating force to the rotating shaft during the rotation in the other direction; a cylinder(140) installed to the installation board, and which has a piston rod(142) for rotating the clutch bearing in forward and rearward directions through the linear reciprocating motion; a stopper(150) installed to the installation board, and which has an operating pin(152) for stopping rotation of the rotating shaft through the linear reciprocating motion; a sample input unit(200) formed of an upper plate(210), an intermediate plate(220) and a lower plate(230), and which receives and discharges samples; a camera(160) installed in a groove of the lower plate of the sample input unit, and which photographs the sample in a hole cup when the hole cup containing the sample and the groove of the lower plate are matched with each other; a local communication circuit(170) for transmitting the video information of the sample photographed by the camera, to a control unit; and a basket for storing the sample discharged from a sample discharge groove formed at the lower plate of the sample input unit.
Abstract:
The method is for identifying and selecting a color or a combination of colors. A color sphere (200) is provided that has a first color pocket (238) defined between a first horizontal disc (202) and a second horizontal disc (208) and vertical inserts (212c, 212b) extending between the first horizontal disc and the second horizontal disc. The first horizontal disc has a plurality of organized first spectrum of color cells and the second horizontal disc has a plurality of organized second spectrum of color cells. The first spectrum is gradually lighter than the second spectrum and gradually more gray from a peripheral surface (209) towards an axial opening (232a) of the first horizontal disc and an axial opening (232b) of the second horizontal discs. A first color cell (236) is identified in a first pocket (238).
Abstract:
A color sphere has a plurality of organized color cells. The color cells are gradually lighter from a bottom to a top. A first color cell is selected from the color sphere. Radial, horizontal peripheral, vertical peripheral directions are identified relative to the first color cell. The color cells of the sphere are organized so that they only match in the radial direction, horizontal peripheral direction and in the vertical peripheral direction. A second color cell is selected only when the second color cell is in selected direction.

Abstract:
A universal, ultra-high definition, accurate color, light, and object rendering, advising, and coordinating system ( fig. 8, 10) for displaying colors, objects, and light and enabling an accurate rendering of a color, room, building, object, person, or landscape. The system (10) includes an image procuring device (12), a memory device (14), a processor (16) and a display device (18) with all elements calibrated and coordinated to ensure that a color viewed and procured in situ by the image procuring device (12) will be identically displayed. The system (10) can combine reference images with display images in a consistent, scaled relationship and can display those images with a variety of lighting effects. Furthermore, the system (10) can make design suggestions in light of designer input, design research, and historic information in furtherance of design goals while accomodating constraining elements. The system (10) can be used relative to building structures, clothing, automobiles, persons, and a plurality of further structures and products.
