Inventor: HARRISON NEIL
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 1995-08-04
Abstract: A communications path not using a deterministic signal frame structure is generally not provided with a performance monitoring system or error detection system. A communications path may be provided with performance monitoring by using known Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) type monitoring on the path but scrambling traffic signals in a scrambler (4) to avoid them being mistaken for an AIS. At the receiving end (8) of the path (5), monitoring means (9) is used for monitoring the received signals for the presence of an AIS, followed by a descrambler (10) to unscramble said received signals before transmitting them to a receiving piece of CPE (12). An adverse state detector may also be provided, to avoid the scrambler (4) scrambling traffic signals so that they look like an AIS.

Title: Radio paging receiver capable of self-managing reception of service information such as weather or news
Inventor: AMMA SADAYUKI
IPC: G08B5/22
Filed: 1997-04-11
Abstract: In a radio paging receiver including a processing part (10) for processing, in response to a radio signal carrying a call number assigned to the receiver and a service information signal representative of service information which succeeds the call number, the radio signal into the service information signal when the processing means detects the call number in the radio signal, a detecting part (5, 6) detects the service information signal as a detected service information signal to produce a detection pulse signal.  A counting part (7, 7') has a count initially equal to a positive integer and counts down the count in response to the detection pulse signal to produce an enabling signal when the count is not equal to zero.  A memory section (8) memorizes the detected service information signal as a memorized service information signal in response to the enabling signal.  A announcing section (9) announces, in response to the memorized service information signal, the service information represented by the memorized service information signal.  The counting part does not carry out the counting operation and production of the enabling signal but produces a zero count signal representative of a zero count in response to the detection pulse signal received when the count is equal to zero.  The announcing section announces, in response to the zero count signal, the zero count represented by the zero count signal.

Abstract: A  recirculating  parts  washer  is  disclosed  that features a vertically mounted base and a sink and lid rotatably connected to the base.  The recirculating parts washer features a cleaning fluid supply container which is separate from the sink but connected to it via a supply line and a drain line.    Cleaning fluid is circulated to the sink via the supply line by means of a submersible pump submerged within the  cleaning  fluid  inside  the  cleaning  fluid supply container.  Cleaning fluid returns to the supply container via the drain line, thus enabling the cleaning fluid to be reused over and over again until it is exhausted.    By having the sink and lid rotatably mounted to the base of the recirculating parts washer, the bulk of the assembly can be conveniently pivoted upwards  and back against the wall when not in use.  The recirculating parts washer  also  features  a  direct  current  power  supply assembly.

Inventor: LEE WAYNE A
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 1996-04-01
Abstract: An application development system, optimized for authoring multimedia titles, enables users to create selectively reusable object containers by defining links among instantiated objects. The system utilizes hierarchical encapsulation to automatically isolate external dependencies of object containers created by its users, thereby facilitating reusability of object containers and the objects they contain in other container environments.  Authors create two basic types of objects: elements (108-111), which are the key actors within an application, and modifiers (114-117, 119, 122, 123) which modify an element (109-110) characteristics. The object containers (elements and behaviors (118, 120) - i.e., modifier containers) created by authors spawn hierarchies of objects, including the structural hierarchy of elements (111) within elements (108), and the behavioral hierarchy (118), within an element (110), of behaviors (and other modifiers (122, 123), within behaviors (120).  The system utilizes an element's dual hierarchies to make that element an environmental frame of reference to the objects it contains.
