Abstract: An apparatus for internally framing a vinyl gate suitable for use with vinyl fencing provides completely hidden structures formed of sheet metal and assembled for greater strength and rigidity. Beams may be formed as channels from sheet metal, which may be placed together, with open edges of the channel juxtaposed and positioned within each other, in order to provide fully closed perimeters for beams. Various types of corner ties arc provided to support loads and squareness required between vertical and horizontal members of the frame. In various embodiments, vinyl sleeves may be placed over various beams before or after the beams have been fully assembled, as appropriate, possible, or required. In certain embodiments, the entire systems of gate framing may be shipped in a long format appearing primarily as linearly-extending, channel-shaped stock. Likewise sheathing can ship as long stock. All fastening may be done alter assembly, in order to finalize squareness and position prior to permanent application of fasteners.

Title: Theftproof system for automobile
Inventor: TU CHIN-CHUAN
IPC: B60R25/021
Filed: 2000-06-28
Abstract: A theftproof system for an automobile includes an elongated slide track mounted on a drive's seat of an automobile, a seat slidably mounted on the slide track, a seat motor mounted on the slide track for driving the seat to move reciprocally on the slide track, a reduction gear set co-operating with the seat motor to move the seat, and a seat movement control device for operating the seat motor to rotate and including a receiver, a central processing unit, a decoder, an actuator, and a motor rotation control circuit. The motor rotation control circuit is electrically connected to the seat motor for rotating the seat motor, and the seat movement control device is provided with a power supply by a battery and co-operates with an emitter. In such a manner, when the receiver receives a signal supplied from the emitter, the motor rotation control circuit of the seat movement control device actuates the seat motor to rotate positively so as to move the seat on the slide track to a front end of the driver's seat, thereby blocking and sealing a leg placing space of the drive's seat so that an extruder cannot step on a pedal of the driver's seat.

Title: Systems and methods for mapping quality of service across communications systems
Inventor: ROY RADHIKA R
IPC: H04L47/80
Filed: 2000-09-28
Abstract: A communication method and apparatus for requesting and satisfying quality of service (QOS) that is independent of a transport/network/link layer. The end-to-end system may contain one or more diverse packet-based networks (e.g., IP, ATM]  where each network may have its own different QOS classes or criteria. The method and apparatus map the QOS between the application/middleware and transport/network/link layer where the application/middleware QOS that is being requested by the end user remains the same on end-to-end basis. Such mapping will allow a transport independent application to offer the end-to-end application layer QOS across all networks regardless of the types of networks that make up a communication path between end terminals. In other words, the application/middleware layer QOS will be available across all networks, regardless of whether the end-user's terminals are connected to the same network or different network types.

Abstract: The inventive drive system contains two oval wheels (9, 10), which are each fixed on one of two axles (3, 4). Said axles are parallel to one another and rotate in opposite directions in bearings (2) located in a plate (1). Two identical gear wheels (15) which engage with one another and which rotate uniformly each comprise an elastic coupling (14). A wheel (12) is flangemounted on each of said elastic couplings. The wheels (12) and the oval wheels (9, 10) are each arranged for holding a tension element (11), for example, a chain, a toothed belt or a reinforced round cord. The one wheel (12) drives the left oval wheel (9) with the one tension element (11), and the other wheel (12) drives the right oval wheel (10) with an additional tension element (11). When moving on rolling contact, the oval wheels (9, 10) satisfy the condition tan1 = 1/2tan2, whereby 1 is, for example, the angle of rotation of the left axle (3), and 2 is that of the right axle (4).

IPC: A47J17/02
Filed: 2000-10-05
Abstract: L'invention vise un dispositif permettant de diviser en quartiers la pulpe d'un melon ou autre fruit du même type, puis de séparer la pulpe de l'écorce avec un minium de perte. Ce dispositif comprend un pivot rigide pourvu d'une poignée à son extrémité supérieure. Une paire de couteaux courbés s'étendent symétriquement dans un même plan que le pivot. Ces couteaux ont chacun une extrémité inférieure fixée de façon pivotante à même une bague de fixation disposée à l'extrémité inférieure du pivot. Ils sont orientés de façon à couper radialement la pulpe pour former les quartiers voulus. Une paire de tiges de soutien est utilisée pour supporter les couteaux. Un mécanisme est prévu pour ajuster l'ouverture des couteaux.  Ce mécanisme comprend un manchon monté de façon libre sur le pivot et un système pour ajuster à volonté la position du manchon le long du pivot sur une distance donnée. Les extrémités opposées des tiges de soutien des couteaux sont fixées au manchon de sorte que les extrémités supérieures des couteaux se trouvent écartées lorsque le manchon est abaissé et se trouvent rapprochées lorsque le manchon est relevé. Ceci permet d'ajuster l'ouverture des couteaux en fonction de la taille du fruit sur lequel le dispositif est utilisé. Le dispositif comprend enfin une lame courbe adjacen te aux couteaux, qui est orientée de façon à couper la pulpe dans une direction transversale à l'axe longitudinal du pivot. Cette lame a une extrémité inférieure montée à l'extrémité inférieure du pivot et une extrémité supérieure fixée à un support qui est fixé au manchon de façon à se déplacer avec celui-ci et de là permette un ajustement automatique de la lame correspondant à celui des couteaux lorsque l'ouverture des couteaux est ajustée.
