Abstract: This present invention relates to an eyebrow threading or facial hair removal tool comprising a headband having a thread line holding clip. The headband comprises three headbands or layers sewn together and is designed to be worn comfortably as a band around the head of a user. The tool maintains the clip oriented towards the front of the head of the user. The clip secures the thread line to keep the line taut while performing eyebrow threading or facial hair removal. The tool eliminates the need to hold the thread line in the user's mouth and allows the user to wear a face mask while threading, thereby inhibiting the risk of contracting germs, viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens.

Abstract: A starting method and system for a motor where the motor may be started as an induction motor by applying a magnetizing current to build flux through the stator, with the field current set at the maximum permissible exciter stator current (i.e., the current that will cause rated no-load current in the main field at the transition speed). The motor stator currents will be maintained at a value that allows the motor to generate sufficient breakaway torque to overcome any stiction. At a specific transition speed or after a period of time, the drive will initiate a transition from induction motor control to synchronous motor control by removing the initial magnetizing current, and a field current is then applied to the motor through the DC exciter. Once this transition is completed, the drive may ramp up to the desired speed demand.
