Title: Generation of a bit stream containing binary image/audio data that is multiplexed with a code defining an object in ascii format
Inventor: SUZUKI TERUHIKO
IPC: H04N21/84
Filed: 1998-09-16
Abstract: A system controller directs a storage device to output a scene description data corresponding to a user request signal. A parsing circuit extracts a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) included in the scene description data, and causes storage devices to output elementary stream and object stream corresponding to the URL. After extracting an object descriptor from the object stream, a generator generates an ID of this object descriptor and supplies it to an encoder. Further, the generator adds the ID to the object descriptor and outputs the ID-added object descriptor to a multiplexer. The multiplexer multiplexes the scene description data including the ID that has been converted into binary format, the object descriptor and the elementary streams into a multiplexed stream for output thereof.

Title: Ladder stabilizing assembly
Inventor: COTHERN LARRY G
IPC: E06C7/18
Filed: 1999-02-01
Abstract: A safety assembly for stabilizing the legs of a ladder is disclosed which includes an elongated support bar, a pair of U-shaped, spaced apart, ladder leg coupling elements mounted on opposite end portions of the support bar and means, such as a pair of brackets, for attaching the support bar to a building or structure against which a ladder is to be operatively positioned. The coupling elements confine the legs of the ladder therein to prevent the ladder from tilting sideways as a person climbs off of or onto the ladder onto or off of the structure. An additional safety feature includes a pair of ladder leg snugging pins which are removably inserted laterally through the legs of the coupling elements to tightly or snuggly confine the ladder legs in the coupling elements. Still another safety feature includes a pair of pivotally movable latches which have a closed position across the otherwise open ends of the coupling elements, which latches can be swung inwardly by means of a pull cord to an open position so that the ladder legs can be removed from the coupling elements by a person standing on the ground in front of the ladder. A pair of springs bias the gates to a normally closed position against a stop member.

Title: Using a systems network architecture logical unit activation request unit as a dynamic configuration definition in a gateway
Inventor: SILVERMAN BRIAN DUDLEY
IPC: H04L29/12
Filed: 1999-04-16
Abstract: An improved method and system for initializing the logical units (LUs) in a Gateway between an SNA network having a mainframe host computer and another network. An activation procedure derives the Table of Boundary LUs on the mainframe host computer by noting the device logical unit numbers within the set of 'Activate Logical Unit' (ACTLU) SNA Request Units. If the mainframe host computer includes an LU in its Table of Boundary LUs, then the activation procedure creates a corresponding LU in the Gateway. The activation procedure also marks each of the created LUs in the Gateway as active. The newly created LUs are then added to the resource pool of LUs available to the network..
Patent CA-2271597-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHANG CHE-YUAN
IPC: A47K7/02
Filed: 1999-05-13
Abstract: A method for making a fruit-shaped bath scrubber makes use of an elastic tubular net having two open ends. One of the open ends is first folded toward other end such that the two open ends form a combination end, and that other end of the tubular net forms a first folding end. The combination end is then folded toward the first folding end. A tail end of the tubular net is then repeatedly folded toward the first folding end until the tubular net is entirely folded to be located beside the first folding end. A ring is partially inserted into the first folding end before a lashing strap is put through the top edge of the folded portion of the tubular net, the first folding end and the ring. The lashing strap is tightened to form the fruit-shaped bath scrubber.

Title: Synthetic fiber fabrics with enhanced hydrophilicity and comfort
Inventor: KATZ MANFRED
IPC: D03D15/00
Filed: 1997-12-02
Abstract: Yarns consisting essentially of about 85 to 90 weight % of a hydrophobic fiber component having substantially uniform shrinkage characteristics and about 10 to 15 weight % hydrophilic fiber can be made into fabrics that exhibit a combination of properties that make them strongly preferred by wearers, as compared even to fabrics made from yarns containing only 5 % more, or 5 % less, of the hydrophilic fiber. More particularly, these novel yarns yield fabrics capable of quickly absorbing perspiration from a wearer's skin and yet capable of quickly releasing that moisture, resulting in surprising levels of wearer comfort and wearer preference.

Title: Distortion compensation circuit
Inventor: NAKAYAMA MASATOSHI
IPC: H03F1/34
Filed: 1999-11-03
Abstract: Conventional distortion compensation circuits have addressed the problem that their distortion compensation amount is greatly reduced at levels other than the designed power level. The present invention provides a distortion compensation circuit that comprises: a vector adjuster; a linearizer; a linear signal extraction path for extracting part of an input signal from the input side of the vector adjuster; a nonlinear signal extraction path for extracting part of an output signal from the output side of the amplifier; a level detector for detecting a combined power level of the signals from the linear signal extraction path and the nonlinear signal extraction path; and a control circuit for adjusting a bias of the linearizer in accordance with the detected combined power level, electrically adjusting the linearizer so that the power detected by the level detector is minimized, and adjusting the vector adjuster so that the power detected by the level detector is minimized every time the linearizer is adjusted. As a result, the distortion compensation circuit of the present invention can optimize distortion compensation at all times independently of the average power changes of the input signal, the secular changes of the amplifier and the state changes of the amplifier caused by temperature changes.

Abstract: An upright carpet extractor for solution cleaning of floor and above floor surfaces has a low profile base assembly (A) including a base housing (10) and a recovery tank and nozzle assembly (18) removably mounted on the housing. The recovery tank and nozzle assembly includes a recovery tank (120, 552) for collecting recovered cleaning solution and a nozzle cover (134) which is attached to a forward portion of the recovery tank exterior to define a nozzle flowpath (138) therebetween. Working air and recovered cleaning solution are drawn through the nozzle flowpath and into the recovery tank by a motor and fan assembly (20,534) mounted to the base housing, rearward of the recovery tank. The nozzle flowpath is removed from the base together with the recovery tank when the recovery tank is to be emptied, allowing the nozzle flowpath to be rinsed conveniently to remove trapped dirt. A carrying handle (250), pivotally mounted to the recovery tank, selectively locks the recovery tank to the housing and locks a removable lid (204) of the recovery tank to the tank to seal a discharge opening (200).

Title: Soi substrate and process for preparing the same, and semiconductor device and process for preparing the same
Inventor: MORIYASU YOSHITAKA
IPC: H01L21/762
Filed: 1998-06-19
Abstract: In growing a silicon layer on a sapphire substrate to prepare an SOS  substrate, or alternatively in depositing an oxide layer or a fluoride layer as an intermediate layer on a silicon substrate followed by the growth of a silicon layer on the intermediate layer to prepare an SOI substrate, heat treatment is carried out in an oxidizing atmosphere after the growth of the silicon layer to oxidize a part of the silicon layer on its surface side followed by the removal of the silicon oxide layer by etching and the residual silicon layer is used as a seed layer to conduct homoepitaxial growth again, or heating is carried out in a hydrogen atmosphere after or in the course of the growth of the silicon layer. This process can provide an SOS substrate or an SOI substrate which is free from defects and has high crystallinity, high orientation and small surface roughness.
