Title: Traffic specifications for polling requests of periodic sources
Inventor: BENVENISTE MATHILDE
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 2003-12-09
Granted: 2010-02-02
Abstract: An apparatus and method for informing a coordinator of the particular characteristics of a periodic traffic source are disclosed. A station that generates a periodic traffic stream encodes the temporal period and temporal offset of the traffic stream within a quality-of-service (QoS) traffic specification, and transmits the traffic specification with a poll request. The coordinator, upon receiving a polling request, processes the associated traffic specification and, via appropriate decoding logic, determines whether the requesting station generates periodic traffic, and if so, the temporal period and temporal offset of the traffic stream. The coordinator subsequently can establish, based on the temporal period and temporal offset, a polling schedule that minimizes the delay between (i) the station generating a frame, and (ii) the station transmitting the frame (and thus the destination receiving the frame).

Abstract: Une truelle mécanique à manche est conçue pour être « équilibrée dynamiquement » afin de minimiser les forces ou le couple que l'opérateur doit subir pour contrôler et guider la truelle. Les caractéristiques qui sont prises en compte pour ce modèle comprennent, sans y être limitées, la friction, le couple moteur, le centre de gravité de la machine et la position de la poignée de manouvre. De ce fait, l'équilibre dynamique et la réduction conséquente de la force ou du couple ont entraîné le déplacement du centre de gravité de la machine de façon relativement importante par rapport au centre de gravité des machines habituelles. L'équilibre dynamique peut être obtenu, plus pratiquement, en inversant l'orientation du moteur par rapport à l'ensemble du manche comparativement aux truelles mécaniques traditionnelles et en déplaçant le moteur le plus à droite possible. Ce déplacement permet de réduire les forces et le couple que l'opérateur doit subir d'au moins 50 % par rapport aux machines traditionnelles.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for filtering a liquid utilize a filter apparatus including a bypass filter, a full flow filter, and a flow balancing element for dividing a total inlet flow of fluid to the filter apparatus into a bypass portion, passing through the bypass filter, and a full flow portion, passing through the full flow filter. The bypass filter has a lower filtering efficiency than the full flow filter element, so that a venturi tube is not required for causing the bypass portion to pass through the bypass filter. The flow balancing element divides the flow into a desired bypass portion and a desired full flow portion, at a predetermined operating temperature. Below the operating temperature, the bypass portion increases and the full flow portion decreases, the bypass portion becoming greater than the full flow portion at a second predetermined temperature below the operating temperature.
