Abstract: An adapter (100) is designed to interconnect the two glad hands that
extend from the adjacently disposed ends of a pair of rail
vehicles in a train. The housing (120) of the adapter (100) includes first (120A)
and second connector (120B) bodies and an intermediate portion (120C) situated
between the two connector bodies. The adapter housing (120) encloses
a flow chamber (121) that runs from the first connector body (120A) through
the intermediate portion (120C) to the second connector body (120B). The
intermediate portion (120C) defines a vertically disposed access port (131)
in communication with the flow chamber (121) of the adapter housing (120).
The connector bodies (120A,120B) are formed on opposite, vertically oriented
sides of the adapter housing (120). Each connector body features a
mating surface (24) from which a flow port (23) in communication with the
flow chamber emerges. Each connector body (120A,120B) also includes a
mechanism that allows the connector body to mechanically couple
to one of the glad hands. When so coupled, the mating surface
of the connector body (120A,120B) is aligned with the mating surface of its
corresponding glad hand with a sealing member (26) of the glad hand
held in compression therebetween. By coupling the glad hands to
connector bodies (120A,120B) of the adapter, a leak proof passage is
provided from one glad hand through the flow chamber (121) and the
flow ports (23) of the adapter housing (120) to the other glad hand. It is
directly to the access port (131) or indirectly via a fitting that an
external device can connect for the purpose of affecting the
pressure contained by the brake pipe of the train.

Abstract: A method is described for partitioning the mobile stations occupying each of
a plurality of cells of a wireless communication network between an overlay and an
underlay. Within each cell, each of that cell's mobile stations is assigned to the
overlay if the mobile station's corresponding path loss exceeds a path-loss
threshold,

threshold.
The path-loss threshold for each cell is determined according to a procedure that
seeks to drive network capacity up while satisfying a rule that relates to intercell
interference.

Patent EP-1104208-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CHU BONG-FOO
IPC: H04L29/08
Filed: 1999-11-26
Abstract: A communication method using a single frequency channel for use in a high frequency wireless
communication system comprising defining different communication areas 2; 3 with different area codes
and then locating a communication transmitting station in each of the communication areas for processing
and amplifying signals without using an electronic switching system. Signals can be transmitted and
exchanged between communication transmitting stations located in different communication areas with
different area codes. When a message sender in a communication area is to communicate with message
receiver by a mobile phone, the message sender as a message sender can use the mobile phone to input a
message including an identification number with an area code of the message sender, an identification
number with an area code of a message receiver, and communication information, and the message is then
converted into a signal for being transmitted to the communication transmitting station of the
communication area where the message sender resides in a single frequency wireless communication way.
After the communication transmitting station, receives the message, the signal is processed and amplified.
If the message sender and the message receiver are in the same communication area, the area code of the
message sender is the same as that of the message receiver and thus the signal is directly transmitted from
the communication transmitting station to the mobile phone of the message receiver. If the message sender
and the message receiver are in different communication areas, the area code of the message sender is
different from that of the message receiver. Therefore, the signal is first transmitted from the
communication transmitting station located in the communication area where the message sender resides to
another communication transmitting station located in the communication area where the message receiver
resides, and then, after the signal is processed and amplified by the other communication transmitting
station, the signal is transmitted to the mobile phone of the message receiver. The message receiver can
then determine whether he would communicate with the message sender. By applying this method,
message senders can communicate with one another without communication congestion due to the
switching process required in the electronic switching system.

Abstract: A protection circuit (100) and protection device (300) for protecting a rechargeable (lithium-based) battery cell or cells from overcharging. A voltage regulator element (110, 310) is connected in parrallel with the battery cell or cells (5) and is thermally coupled to a thermal element (120, 322, 326) connected in series with the charging current supply. The voltage regulator element (110, 310) prevents overcharging of the battery (5) by shunting current away from the battery when a predetermined voltage across the battery is exceeded. Moreover, the thermal element (120, 322, 326) prevents failure of the voltage regulator element (110, 310) by open circuiting the current path when the heat dissipated by the voltage regulator element (110, 310), thermally coupled to the thermal element (120, 322, 326) causes the thermal element to enter a high resistance state. Additional protection may be provided by fuse bonds (332, 334) connecting the combination of the shunt voltage regulator (310) and the thermal elements (322, 326) to  the charging current supply and to the battery (5).
