Abstract: A jet-propelled watercraft is provided which, using a simple configuration, can maintain a propulsion force required for a turn made at the same time as closing of a throttle valve. A jet-propelled watercraft discharges a water jet using a turning force of an engine, obtains a propulsion force from the water jet, and makes a turn by changing the direction of the water jet. The jet-propelled watercraft has an auxiliary intake valve and a control unit (EUC). The auxiliary intake valve is provided in an intake pipe and opens/closes an auxiliary intake passage which provides bypassing of a throttle valve. The ECU performs control such that an opening of the auxiliary intake valve in a state where the rotation speed of the engine is not lower than a threshold value is larger than the opening of the auxiliary intake valve in a state where the engine is idling and such that, when, in a state where the rotation speed is not lower than the threshold value, it is detected that the throttle valve is completely closed and that a steering mechanism has been turned by a prescribed angle or more, a current opening of the auxiliary intake valve is maintained.

Title: System and method for floor covering installation
Inventor: SCOTT GRAHAM A H
IPC: C09J7/38
Filed: 2005-10-17
Granted: 2012-07-17
Abstract: Connectors for joining adjacent modular floor covering units. The connectors include a film and an adhesive layer coated on one side of the film. To install tiles using the connectors, a first tile is placed on the floor and a connector is positioned so that the adhesive layer faces upward and does not contact the floor. The connector is typically positioned so that only a portion of the adhesive layer adheres to the underside of the tile, leaving the remainder of the connector extending from the underside of the tile. Tiles are then positioned adjacent the first tile so that a portion of the connector adheres to the adjacent tiles. In this way, the connectors span adjacent tile edges. The tiles are assembled on a underlying flooring surface without the need to attach them to the floor surface. Rather, the tiles are linked to each other with the connectors, so that the tiles create a floor covering that "floats" on the underlying floor surface.
