Abstract: A controller for a variable frequency drive monitors electrical power from a variable frequency drive motor while a brake is maintaining a load driven or moved by the motor without requiring additional feedback components of a closed loop configuration. If excess electrical power is being generated by the motor, an undesirable condition in the brake is indicated. Support or maintenance of the load is assumed by the motor in that event. Appropriate alarms or indicators are also activated.

Abstract: A storage container and method of storage that safely protects objects and allows convenient access. The invention is particularly useful for the parking of more than one automobile using the same space necessary to park just one automobile. The invention is an enclosure to be used as a parking capsule for automobiles or for the storage of other desired items. The invention resembles a capsule that is used to store items in a protected environment. The capsulized system contains known retractable mechanisms that move the storage base from a stored position inside the capsule to an extended position allowing convenient access to the storage area. The capsule's uniquely designed cover provides for an area to be treated with material so as to blend into the surrounding surface. For example, the cover allows for grass if the capsule were to be installed in a home yard, or the cover area is filled with cement, dirt, concrete or black top, when the capsule is placed in a street or road.

Abstract: The invention effectively multiplies a roadway vertically by allowing automobiles to travel on top of each other. Each section of the invention is a pre-fabricated reinforced concrete multi-level roadway structure that covers an existing lane of traffic on a roadway. The invention is easily cast, transported, assembled and moved, as needed. The cover of the lower roadway forms the roadway of the upper lane of traffic. The bottom section of the invention is made up of two "Jersey-type" barriers which have vertical columns that then support the upper roadway section. The upper section of the invention contains "Jersey-type" barriers for safety.
