Filed: 2008-02-15
Abstract: The invention relates to a vibrating rivet tool (1, 15) for pressing and fixing rivets (3) in component holes (7) in component (8) of aircraft. The vibrating rivet tool (1, 15) comprises a rivet receptacle (2, 14) and a drive unit (4, 16) for producing a high static pressing force (5). According to the invention, the static pressing force (5) is superimposed by a mechanical vibration (11, 19), of which the amplitude acts substantially in the direction of a longitudinal axis (6) of the rivet. As a result, the force necessary to press and fix the rivet (3) in a component hole (7) is reduced in such a way that the overall size and mass of the vibrating rivet tool (1, 15) according to the invention are smaller/ lower in comparison with conventional rivet tools. Due to the small overall size and low weight, the vibrating rivet tool (1, 15) can more easily be integrated in automated riveting processes.

Title: Systems and methods for filtering cellular telephone messages
Inventor: KOZAM MARC L
IPC: H04M1/72436
Filed: 2008-01-30
Abstract: Systems and methods for filtering cellular messages to prevent receipt of certain messages are described. In one aspect, a computing device detects an incoming cellular telephone message for delivery to a receiver. The device filters the message by determining source identification information for the incoming cellular telephone message. The device compares this information to source identification entries in an acceptable senders list. The acceptable senders list includes source identification information corresponding to previous incoming and outgoing voice contacts by the receiver. If the source identification information for the incoming cellular telephone message is not found in the source identification entries in the acceptable senders list, the device deletes the cellular telephone message from a memory to prevent receipt of the message by the receiver.
