Abstract: The present invention provides a manhole cover/frame exchange method capable of minimizing the size of a portion to be mended, of eliminating a pressing step by a roller machine, of eliminating/reducing steps and a required mending time and of suppressing vibrations, noises and the like during the exchanging process. The manhole cover/frame exchange method comprises steps of: cutting a portion of a paved road around the manhole cover/frame spherically; removing the spherically cut portion; filling a self-curing highly fluid non-shrink filler into a spherical hollow space formed by the removing step, and filling a surface layer material over the self curing highly fluid non-shrink filler. Thus, the pressing step by the roller machine is eliminated by the present invention.
Patent CA-2428134-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WALLINGFORD ERROL E
IPC: B60W10/11
Filed: 2003-05-07
Abstract: The problem of losing throttle control when controlling an AC motor throughout transmission shifts has been solved for a finite set of discrete waveforms. The solution requires making as many discrete speed waveform tables as there are gear ratios in the transmission. Each table has speed entries appropriate for controlling acceleration and deceleration while in its selected gear ratio. In addition when a new gear ratio is selected a transition to the new table with a changed motor rpm can be done with the throttle unchanged. This provides a smooth control for both manual and automatic transmissions.

Patent CA-2432740-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHEN WEI-GE
IPC: H04N7/36
Filed: 1996-10-04
Abstract: Video encoding and decoding processes provide compression and decompression of digitized video signals representing display motion in video sequences of multiple image frames. The encoder process utilizes object- or feature-based video compression to improve the accuracy and versatility of encoding interframe motion and interframe image features. Video information is compressed relative to objects or features of arbitrary configurations, rather than fixed, regular arrays of pixels as in conventional video compression methods. This reduces the error components and thereby improves the compression efficiency and accuracy. The decoder process decompresses the encoded video information to reconstruct the objects or features of arbitrary configurations.
