Title: Location updating in communications networks
Inventor: FOX DAVID
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2004-07-14
Granted: 2009-04-08
Abstract: A GSM mobile telecommunications network provides a radio access network, comprising base transceiver stations 22 and base station controllers 26, together with a core network, comprising mobile switching centres 2, serving gateway support nodes 16, core 12 and home location register 10. The radio access network comprises a plurality of geographically distributed cells. The network provides GSM functions to mobile devices registered therewith over a GSM bearer. The network is adapted to also provide core network GSM functions to devices registered therewith over a non-GSM bearer via a different access network. This different access network may comprise a Bluetooth (RTM) connection between the mobile terminal and an access point 20, and an IP-based communications link between the access point 20 and an access controller 24. When the device initiates a connection to the different access network, the core network interrogates the device to obtain, if available, data indicative of the cell occupied thereby, interrogates the core network to obtain, if available, an indicator of the identity of the cell occupied by the device, obtains, if available, data indicative of the location of the access point 20 with which the device communicates, and, in dependence thereon, selects an access controller 24 for communicating with the access point 20 or instructs the device to attempt to connect to the GSM radio access network.

Abstract: A valve member (E) for a shut-off valve has a stem tip seal (F) and is adapted for selective movement axially towards and away from an associated valve seat (76). A generally cylindrical sleeve (80) is carried by the valve member (E) and has an end defining an outer annular seal surface (91) adapted for cooperative sealing engagement with the seat (76). Mounted centrally within the sleeve (80) for limited axial movement is a rigid cylindrical body (88) that defines an inner annular seal surface (90) adapted for engagement with the seat (76) at a location radially inwardly of the outer annular seal surface. Formed between the sleeve (80) and the rigid body (88) is an annular chamber (96) which opens axially inwardly from a narrow slot (94) located between the inner annular seal surface (90) and the outer annular seal surface (91). A mass of resilient packing material (97) substantially fills the chamber (96) and extends axially outwardly of the slot (94) to define a medial annular seal surface (103). Means are associated with the rigid body (88) for generating pressure on the packing material (97) when the body is forced axially towards the valve member (E). In addition, the inner annular seal surface (90) is configured to engage the seat (76) prior to engagement by either the medial annular seal surface (103) or the outer annular seal surface (91).
