Title: Alternate routing of media connections within a single communications system across public or private network facilities
Inventor: BALDWIN CHRISTOPHER DAVID
IPC: H04L69/14
Filed: 2005-12-28
Abstract: In one configuration, an enterprise network is provided that includes geographically dislocated first and second network regions 202 and 206, the first and second network regions being in communication with one another through first and second networks 252 and 248 and respectively comprising first and second gateways 220 and 224 and first and second groupings of links connected to the second network 248. A common electronic address is associated with the second grouping of links. In response to a request from a first subscriber to initiate a communication session with a second subscriber in the other network region, a media server 200 determines that the first network 252 is currently incapable of supporting the bearer channel for the session. In response, the first gateway 220 transmits the common electronic address to the second gateway 224. After the common electronic address is received by the second gateway 224, the first gateway 220 transmits in band to the second gateway 224 an identifier that is used to establish the communication session.

Title: Portable power and signal distribution system for a controllable system including multiple devices
Inventor: COVINGTON JOHN
IPC: H01R4/66
Filed: 2006-01-06
Abstract: A power supply assembly which can drive a number of different devices at different voltages. A rack holds a number of breaker modules, and each breaker module can connect to one or many breakout boxes. The breakout boxes are keyed to the breaker modules, so that the breaker boxes will not be energized with power unless they are the proper voltage and/or configuration to receive that power. The coil of a contactor in the breaker module is powered by a key wire that is connected through specified pins in the breakout box. Therefore, no power is ever provided to the breakout box unless it is of the proper voltage configuration. In addition, feeder power to the power supply assembly is provided over bolted connections, without any wire connections between the power feed and the circuit breaker.

Title: A regulator of angle and reactive moment of a gerotor type motor having a spindle and drilling bit in a bent drilling string
Inventor: TIMOFEEV VLADIMIR IVANOVICH
IPC: E21B7/06
Filed: 2004-02-03
Abstract: The invention relates to devices for drilling controlled directional wells.  The inventive control device consists of a central hollow element and three hollow out-of-line with respect to each other tubular elements connected thereto. Said central element and the first element on the side of the connection thereof to a spindel are provided for each with its own contact segmental section, thereby forming a pair of contact segmental sections arranged therebetween. Said sections are disposed on the opposite sides with respect to the meridian plane of the spindle in the bending plane of the drill string and at a distance L between the nearest edges of the contact segmental sections along the central axis of the first element at L>=D. The contact segmental section of the first element is deviated from the meridian plane of the spindel in the bending plane of the drilling string in an opposite direction with respect to the reaction torque of a drilling bit. Said invention improves stability, increases the deviation angle of a gerotor type motor provided with a spindle and drilling bit and the drilling accuracy of a bottom hole heterogeneity.

Title: System for enlarging a retinal image
Inventor: MARIN GILDAS
IPC: G02C7/02
Filed: 2004-10-12
Abstract: The invention relates to a system for enlarging a retinal image, comprising an intraocular implant (14) and an external lens (16). The implant comprises a peripheral part (24) and a central part (22) with a negative power. The lens (16) has a positive power and is for arrangement outside the eye, typically in a glasses frame. The lens (16) and the implant (14) produce an enlarged image of an object at the back of the eye of a standard user. For a pupil with a diameter of 1.5 mm, each point object in a reading field forms a dark image of a size between 20 and 50 m at the back of the eye. The invention permits a large reading field, at the cost of a degradation in the performance of the system along the axis, acceptable when taking into account the acuity of the patients treated and, furthermore, provides a system with little variation in performance with displacement of the lens from the nominal position.

Patent CA-2546090-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TURNER JAMES A
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2006-05-08
Abstract: A system displays video to a user and has a display device with a field of pixels. It displays video to the user in the form of a series of discrete sequential frame images each made up of a first predetermined number of bit planes in which the pixels of the display are either off or have a color and intensity that is uniform over the field of pixels. The apparatus detects when a movement condition is present, such as rapid head movement or an object in the video crossing the display rapidly, in which condition the user's eye may tend to track across the display device at a rate at which perception of the video displayed may be reduced in quality, and it generates a condition-present signal when such a movement condition is detected. Responsive to generation of said condition-present signal, the apparatus causes the display device to display the frame images using fewer bit planes for each frame image than when said movement condition is not detected.  Display with the original number of bit planes returns when the movement condition is over.
