Abstract: PCT No. PCT/AU94/00719 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 29, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 29, 1996 PCT Filed Nov. 22, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO95/14800 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 1, 1995A yarn is spun by dividing a traveling fiber assembly into a plurality of fiber sub-assemblies, causing the sub-assemblies to traverse different paths and then recombining them, wherein the paths are sufficiently proximate for fibers to continuously transfer from one or more of the sub-assemblies and be drawn onto or into another or other sub-assemblies. Also disclosed is a method for forming a yarn comprising twisting a plurality of fiber sub-assemblies together at a convergence point to form a fiber assembly being a yarn, and further including cyclically altering the relative twist propagation in and/or into the sub-assemblies upstream of the convergence point. Still further disclosed are alternative methods involving cyclic variation of paths traversed by the sub-assemblies, and cyclic alteration of the relative positions of the sub-assemblies. Apparatus is described for carrying out each method.

Abstract: An air manager system (10) for a metal-air cell (20) having an air cathode (28) is provided to control air and moisture admitted to the cathode. The air manager system optimizes the use of ambient air and reactant air utilized by a metal-air cell by recirculating (40) the reactant air and admitting (46) only a sufficient amount of oxygen from the ambient air to generate the necessary output for the battery. The present invention also provides a method of recirculating the ambient air while admitting only an amount of ambient air sufficient to replace oxygen that has been used by the cell during operation. The present invention also provides an oxygen supply (42) control circuit which increases or decreases the oxygen available to the metal-air cell based on load demand so as to provide further moisture control. The oxygen control circuit also adjusts the air inlet valve (47) to an optimum setting based upon the particular mode of operation of the load. The invention further provides a cathode plenum (39) having an inlet (42) and outlet (47) and a plurality of baffles (68) defining a nonlinear path, essentially covering the entire surface area of the cathode (28), for the air to flow from the inlet to the outlet in a turbulent manner.

Title: Optimizing 802.11 power-save for IP multicast groups
Inventor: GRISWOLD VICTOR J
IPC: H04J99/00
Filed: 2004-08-31
Granted: 2009-12-03
Abstract: A method for providing a superior quality of service for multicast data streams delivered over a wireless local area network. As Internet Protocol multicast data streams are received by an access point, the access point observes Internet Group Multicast Protocol registration messages to determine which of its associated stations subscribe to each multicast data stream. The access point then determines which of the multicast data streams it receives have only active subscribing stations as opposed to those data streams having at least one associated station operating in power-save mode. The access point will automatically transmit each multicast data stream having only active subscribers immediately to the associated active stations, while buffering the multicast data stream for which there is at least one associated station operating in power-save mode.
