Title: Control method for hydrostatic type continuously variable transmission
Inventor: YOSHIDA YOSHIHIRO
IPC: F16H61/40
Filed: 2000-08-18
Abstract: An overtop position is to be established in a hydrostatic type continuously variable transmission, and an increase of the maximum speed and the maintenance of power performance are to be made compatible with each other. In a hydrostatic type continuously variable transmission, the angle of inclination of a movable swash plate is controlled in such a manner that a target Ne is calculated from both RC (riding condition) and throttle valve opening, then the target Ne thus calculated is compared with an actual Ne to determine a rotational direction and DUTY of a control motor, and the operation of the control motor is controlled in accordance with the thus-determined data and angle information on the angle of the movable swash plate provided from an angle sensor. In a constant speed vehicular traveling, the change gear ratio is set at TOP ratio and a shift is made to OVERTOP when predetermined overtop control conditions ((1) the current change gear ratio should be at TOP position, (2) the degree opening of a throttle valve should exceed a threshold value determined according to a vehicular speed, and (3) the engine speed should exceed a preset value) are satisfied, thereby increasing the maximum vehicle speed.

Title: Enhanced precooked egg product and process for formulation of precooked egg products
Inventor: BEAM LAUREN S
IPC: A23L15/00
Filed: 2000-08-24
Abstract: The present process relates to forming of precooked egg patties for future heating within a microwave oven for consumption as a portion of a food article. The process involves the initial step of acquisition of liquid whole eggs, liquid egg whites and/or liquid egg yolks mixed with leavening ingredients (a mix of an acid and a base) to create an egg patty with improved texture and appearance for use within a breakfast sandwich following initial cooking. The following ingredients may be added to further improve the product: non-fat dry milk, modified food starch, gums, and emulsifiers. The process in summary involves adding to liquid eggs leavening ingredients or agents and then cooking of the mixed eggs and leavening ingredients prior to the dissipation of the leavening ingredients to form an egg patty having improved appearance and a light and airy texture. .
Patent CA-2316746-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BIELSKI SCOTT A
IPC: H04N5/367
Filed: 2000-08-17
Abstract: A technique is described for detecting defects such as short circuits in a device such as a discrete pixel detector (22) used in a digital x-ray system (10).  The technique employs test circuits (122, 124, 126) associated with each row driver (46) of the detector. The test circuits are enabled by a test enable signal (150), and the row driver sequentially enables the rows of the detector, along with the individual test circuits. In a test sequence, output signals (194, 184) from the row test circuits are monitored to identify whether a defect, such as a short circuit, is likely to exist in the row or row driver. The test circuitry adds only minimal area and complexity to the row driver function, providing a high degree of test coverage at a low cost, with minimal likelihood of test circuitry-induced failures.
