Title: Axle filter for internally vented wheel assembly
Inventor: YUREK THEODORE FRANK
IPC: F01M13/04
Filed: 1999-09-08
Granted: 2004-08-31
Abstract: A filter (10) is disposed in the interior cavity of each of the axle spindle (Il) sections of a non-drive axle for a heavy duty tractor-trailer, which utilizes internally vented wheel end assemblies. Each filter (10) provides for sufficient air flow from the wheel end assembly cavity into the axle cavity to enable internal venting of any expanding gas from the wheel end assembly cavity into the axle cavity, thereby preventing excessive pressure build-up in the wheel end assembly and possible reduction of the life expectancy of the wheel end assembly main seal. Depending on the filter (10) embodiment employed, the filter prevents or at least lessens the likelihood of migration of contaminates such as oxide scale from the axle cavity into the wheel end assembly cavity, thereby preventing or lessening the likelihood that such contaminates will cause premature wear of the wheel end assembly bearings or main seal.

Inventor: RAITH ALEX KRISTER
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 1999-11-22
Granted: 2012-01-10
Abstract: A method for controlling temperature-related transmissions in radiocommunication systems. A mobile station includes a measuring device for determining operating temperature. When the measured temperature exceeds a predetermined threshold temperature, the mobile station can reduce its transmission rate, thereby reducing power dissipation within the device. The mobile station informs the system of the rate reduction, whereby the system can reallocate released resources, e.g., timeslots and/or spreading codes. The mobile station can also inform the user of the change in transmission rates and/or the temperature of the mobile station, whereupon the user can move to a better transmitting location. The mobile station can also take into account the transmit status of the current connection in determining when to reduce the transmission rate.
