Inventor: LEHTIMOKI MATTI
IPC: H04W76/00
Filed: 1999-06-30
Abstract: A telecommunication network and a routing method, wherein user data are routed via an access network ( 2 ) to a gateway device ( 5 ) of a core network ( 7 ) connected to the access network ( 2 ) via a first interface. The control of the gateway device ( 5 ) is performed by supplying a control information from the core network ( 7 ) to the gateway device ( 5 ) via a second interface, and the user data are routed directly between the access network ( 2 ) and the gateway device ( 5 ) via the first interface. Thus, the user data are routed directly from the access network ( 2 ) to the gateway ( 5 ), whereas the control can be performed via a dedicated and open control interface. Processing resources can be shared between several applications and trunking gains can be utilized. Furthermore, real-time transport capabilities can be provided by a simple method of connecting the Internet to the mobile network.

Title: Grinding tool with dust protection cover
Inventor: KLEIDER ALBERT
IPC: B24B55/10
Filed: 2000-01-07
Abstract: A dust protection cover for a grinding tool comprises a shell 5 and an attached metal element such as a spring 11 or a metal grid in which there are air passages. The metal element and the tool's grinding body (4, fig. 1) project from an open face of the shell 5, the metal element being elastically compressible in a direction perpendicular to this face, thereby allowing the grinding body (4, fig. 1) to come into contact with a work surface. The interior of the shell 5 may comprise flexible hooks 10 for attachment of the metal element. When the metal element is a spring 11, the first winding (12, fig. 3) which forms the end for attachment to the shell 5 has a smaller diameter than the other windings, while the opposite end is closed and has a ground end winding (13, fig. 3).

IPC: G11B5/55
Filed: 1999-12-30
Abstract: A system and method for controlling vibration of a piezoelectric microactuator (158) in a disc drive (110) are disclosed. The mechanical strain on the piezoelectric microactuator (158) is ascertained and fed back to a controller (190, 175) which provides an electrical signal to the piezoelectric microactuator (158) based upon the sensed strain.

In one embodiment, a bridge circuit (179) is coupled to the piezoelectric microactuator (158). The bridge circuit (179) is adapted to sense a voltage across the piezoelectric microactuator (158) and to separate the voltage across the piezoelectric microactuator (158) into a voltage externally applied to the piezoelectric microactuator (158) and a voltage induced on the piezoelectric microactuator (158) by mechanical strain.

Title: A governor for a diesel engine
Inventor: FRANKLIN PHILIP CLIVE
IPC: F02B37/00
Filed: 2002-06-01
Abstract: A governor for controlling a fuel pump of a supercharged diesel engine comprises a pneumatic actuator 20 that produces a force via a lever 12 connected to the control means of a fuel pump, dependent on the supercharger outlet pressure P. In use the governor operates to decrease the fuel supply to the engine when the pressure P overcomes a collapsible link in the form of compression spring 34, urging the link 40 in the direction of arrow C. To increase the engine speed an operator moves an input control link 40 to compress the spring 34 urging the link lever 12 in the direction of arrow B to increase the fuel supply from the pump. Thus the governor may be used to hold the engine at a fixed speed or to control the engine to a desired speed as required by the operator. Further disclosed is an engine incorporating the governor and pump arrangement, and still further disclosed is an aircraft incorporating an engine incorporating the governor and pump arrangement.

Title: Varying the number of RAKE fingers for different kinds of data
Inventor: NAGANO YASUHIKO
IPC: H04B1/7115
Filed: 2002-07-03
Abstract: A RAKE type Code Divisional Multiple Access (CDMA) receiver detects what kind of data is being transmitted via a parameter read by a CPU 7 situated after the RAKE combination 4a...4n. Multipath errors in video or image data are easily noticed, and so the number of fingers is maximised. Voice or text data need not be so free of delays, and the number of fingers can be reduced, with the timing generation section 2 only supplying clock signals to those selected finger sections. Battery life is thereby increased due to reduced power consumption.
