Abstract: A supercharger system for a two-stroke internal combustion engine includes a gearbox, compressor, airbox and an exhaust flow restrictor. The compressor may be a belt driven impeller to create positive pressure to the engine air intake.  Restricting the flow of the exhaust slows down the exhaust to inhibit blow-through in the combustion chamber which would prematurely force unburned air and fuel from the combustion chamber of the engine.  The gearbox is self-lubricating and contains only two gears and an internal reservoir arranged using a metering conduit so that consistent lubrication occurs at higher angles of inclination when the engine is in use.

Abstract: An optimizer for messaging systems learns the purpose and context of each message and combines that information with knowledge of the specific client that will be rendering the response, such as a specific HTML browser. Any of a number of optimization factors can be applied, singly or in any combination.    Messages are analyzed offline until a configurable threshold is reached, indicating that enough data has been sampled to develop a valid instruction set, to be applied to the responses that a server generates for a particular request. Responses are parsed into tokens and instructions for each type of token are compiled into instruction sets that are stored. These instructions sets continue to be iteratively improved as more data is collected, until the configurable sampling threshold is reached.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to enabling image display at a high resolution according to connection of an external device 13 including a display environment having a higher resolution than that of a display specification of a receiver 3 itself. An encoder 5 compresses a captured image output from a camera 4 in either one of a QVGA mode and a VGA mode. A decoder 9 expands the compressed image input via sending and receiving circuits 6 and 8, and generates a QVGA expanded image from the compressed image in the QVGA  mode while generating a VGA expanded image from the compressed image in the VGA mode. A QVGA display unit 11a displays the QVGA expanded image. A USB interface 12 outputs the VGA  expanded image outward. When the external device 13 is not connected, the captured image is compressed in the QVGA mode, so that the QVGA expanded image is displayed on the QVGA display unit 11a. When the external device 13 is connected, the captured image is compressed in the VGA mode, so that the VGA expanded image is displayed on a VGA display unit 13a via the USB interface 12.

Abstract: A method of assembling and shaping a laminate panel. An intermediate member (3) is mounted on a lay-up table (4) and a lay-up is assembling by laying a series of plies onto the intermediate member (3) on the lay-up table (4). The intermedi-ate member (3) and the lay- up are then removed from the lay-up table and placed them on a shaped surface. The lay-up is then forced against the shaped surface, via the intermediate member (3), in a manner that modifies the shape of the lay-up to form a shaped laminate panel (3). Finally the shaped laminate panel is removed from the intermediate member. The lay-up table (4) can thus support the flexible intermediate member (3) during assembly, and can be relatively flat to enable the lay-up to assembled by an automated process.
