Abstract: A vacuum cleaner system (10) incorporating a closed loop airflow recirculation path for cooling a beater brush motor (40). A portion of clean, exhaust airflow (32) created by a fan (20) is diverted away from an exhaust port (20) of the housing (16) and directed into a flow path (34) running alongside a portion of the housing (16). The airflow is used to pressurize a compartment (38) within which a beater brush motor (40) is disposed. A low pressure area created by the fan (28) is used to assist in drawing the cooling exhaust airflow through the compartment (38), to thus form a closed loop cooling air recirculation system using only clean, filtered exhaust airflow to maintain the beater brush motor (40) cool during use. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of handling an incoming call during an operational mode of a wireless communications device is provided. With the operational mode activated, an incoming call is received at the wireless communications device on a control channel of the wireless communications system. The source of the incoming call is identified, typically by activating caller ID circuitry resident within the wireless communications device to identify a phone number of the source of the incoming call. One of a plurality of pre-recorded messages is then selected either manually or automatically to play back to the source of the incoming call. The plurality of pre-recorded messages are stored at a voice message mailbox in the wireless communications system allocated to the wireless communications device. The incoming call is then diverted, without completing the call and switching to a traffic channel, to the voice message mailbox of the wireless communications device and the selected pre-recorded messages is played back for the source of the incoming call.

Abstract: A message sequencing mechanism adds text in a display area based on relational importance. Each message is coded with an identification. The message is added to the display area based on previous identifications. The messages are categorized and sorted first by identification and then by chronology. Messages may be displayed in ascending or descending order with respect to both the identification and the time order of the messages. If the identification dictates that the message is to be added between two existing entries, a space for the new message is made between related entries in the display area, and the new message is added. Messages may also include a sub identification for more defined relationships. Furthermore, a message may be text or other media, such as sound, image, or video. The field may also be automatically scrolled to display the most recent message in association with related messages.
