Title: Control apparatus for CVT revises high engine speed time limit if exceeded
Inventor: FUNATSU KOUICHI
IPC: B60W10/10
Filed: 1996-07-04
Abstract: The speed reduction ratio of a CVT is controlled such that the engine revolution speed approaches a target revolution speed which is set depending on the running conditions of a vehicle. When an accumulated time of high-speed operation at which the engine speed becomes higher than a predetermined first set revolution speed exceeds a first set time, an upper limit value of the engine speed or the target revolution speed is corrected so as to decrease. Preferably, when the duration time of a low-speed revolution below a predetermined second set revolution speed which is smaller than the first set revolution speed exceeds a second set time, the upper limit value of the engine speed is corrected to increase or the correction to decrease the target revolution speed is stopped.

Title: Process for impregnation and expansion of tobacco
Inventor: CHO KWANG H
IPC: A24B15/28
Filed: 1992-06-17
Abstract: A process for expanding tobacco is provided which employs carbon dioxide gas. Tobacco temperature and OV content are adjusted prior to contacting the tobacco with carbon dioxide gas.
