  • Publication number: 20030182183
    Abstract: A method of organizing a multi-car-pool comprising a leading car and at least one follower customer car, comprising the steps of registering participants, each of them potentially being a chauffeur of the leading car and/or a following customer in the multi-car-pool in a central service organization, providing a electronic service platform to enable registered participants to submit their intended driving route and driving direction and travelling timeframe to the central service organization, assembling participants having submitted their intended driving route and driving direction and travelling timeframe, who are having the same intended driving direction and overlapping travelling timeframe and sharing at least a part of their routes to build a multi-car-pool by the central service organization, and submitting information to a chauffeur and a customer assembled to build the multi-car-pool to enable the identification of each other.

  • Patent number: 5802720
    Abstract: A razor consisting of a flexible cloth-like base material upon which are mounted a plurality of cutting heads. Each head is attached to the base material so as to be flexible in orientation. A preferred head embodiment includes a flat metal structure having an attachment hole for connection to the cloth and an aperture large enough for passage of one or more hairs, the perimeter of the aperture having a sharp edge for cutting the hair. The density, i.e. quantity of heads per unit area is preferably very large, resulting in some overlap of heads. In this dense configuration, the probability of a head engaging a hair is greatly increased, in spite of the somewhat random orientation of each head. This principle is more commonly known as the law of mass action. The dense, small cutting heads in combination with the flexible cloth-like base material provides a structure that easily conforms to body contours.
