Granted: 2015-07-07
Abstract: Two embodiments are provided. In the first embodiment a variable capacity vane pump has a slide ring which is moveable to alter the capacity of the pump and the pump can be operated at either of at least two selected equilibrium pressures. The slide ring is moved by a control piston with dual control surfaces, the control piston being received in a housing on the pump case and the two control surfaces cooperating with the housing to form two chambers in which pressurized working fluid can be received. When pressurized fluid is supplied to only one chamber, the pump operates at a first equilibrium pressure and when pressurized fluid is also supplied to the second chamber, the pump operates at a second equilibrium pressure. If the relevant areas of the chambers differ, three equilibrium pressures can be selected between by applying pressurized fluid to one, or the other or both chambers. In the second embodiment, a fixed capacity pump has a pressure relief valve piston with two control surfaces forming chambers with the pump housing similarly to the first embodiment, such that the pump can be operated at either of at least two selected equilibrium pressures.

Title: Method, software and device for uniquely identifying a desired contact in a contacts database based on a single utterance
Inventor: BOCKING ANDREW DOUGLAS
IPC: H04M1/27453
Filed: 2007-08-17
Granted: 2011-11-08
Abstract: A single utterance having a name portion and a qualifier portion is received. The name portion represents a spoken name of a desired contact of a contacts database, and the qualifier portion represents a spoken word or words for disambiguating the name of the desired contact from any homophone names in the contacts database. From the utterance, a digital name representation corresponding to the name portion and a digital qualifier representation corresponding to the qualifier portion are generated. The digital representations may be textual or phonetic representations for example and may result from conversion of the utterance to a digital utterance representation and a parsing of the digital utterance representation. The digital name and qualifier representations are processed to uniquely identify the desired contact within the contacts database. The utterance may contain a disambiguation field identifier portion which facilitates the identification of a disambiguation field.

Title: Electrostatically regulated atomic scale electroconductivity device
Inventor: WOLKOW ROBERT A
IPC: G01K7/01
Filed: 2006-03-08
Granted: 2015-06-30
Abstract: An atomic scale electroconductivity device with electrostatic regulation includes a perturbing species having a localized electronic charge, A sensing species having an electronic conductivity is placed in proximity to the perturbing species at a distance sufficient to induce a change in the electronic conductivity associated with the localized electronic charge.  Electronics are provided to measure the conductivity via the sensing species.  A temporally controlled atomic scale transistor is provided by biasing a substrate to a substrate voltage with respect to ground. A dangling bond extending from a substrate atom has a charge state from among a charge state group. The charge state varies in units of single electron addition or withdrawal. A grounded electrical contact is provided within a localized electronic charge in proximity to the dangling bond. A sensing species having an electronic conductivity is also placed in proximity to the dangling bond. A  sensing species contact biased with respect to said substrate is provided such that varying the substrate voltage modifies the charge state of the substrate atom at one electron unit of charge and still within the charge state group for the substrate atom. The dangling bond functions as a single atom gate electrode. By placing the dangling bond in an array of sensing species, an atomistic multi-channel gate transistor is formed. A process for operating an electrostatically regulated atomic scale electroconductivity device includes charging a perturbing atomic or molecular species having a localized electronic charge associated therewith so as to induce an electrostatic field.  By monitoring electronic conductivity through a sensing atom or molecule in proximity to the electrostatic field, an atomic scale device is formed.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods of remote powering of DSL ADMs are disclosed. In a subscriber communication node, at least communication components that enable the subscriber communication node to communicate with a network switching device, and possibly also subscriber communication components that enable one or more subscriber communication devices to communicate with the network switching device, can be powered either by a local power source or remotely through an electrically conductive twisted wire pair. A network node may derive its own power and also supply power to subscriber communication nodes through twisted wire pairs. A linear or ring topology of subscriber communication nodes can thus be kept operational, and subscriber communications can potentially also be maintained, when a local power source at one or more subscriber nodes becomes unavailable.
