Patent GB-0814764-D0 (GB)
Title: Engine braking method and system
Filed: 2008-08-13
Abstract: During engine braking of a turbocharged internal combustion engine, the exhaust gas pressure increases and this is used to pressurise the seals between the turbocharger shaft and the bearing housing so as to prevent oil leakage into the compressor housing. Immediately after engine braking, stored exhaust gas pressure is used to pressurise the seals at the turbine end so as to prevent oil leakage into the turbine housing. In an alternative arrangement the exhaust gas is used to generate a reduced pressure in the bearing housing to increase the pressure gradient across the seals.

Title: Radio-link continuity keeping equipment in cellular telephone mobile station
IPC: H04M1/72505
Filed: 1990-12-21
Abstract: A radio-link continuity keeping equipment in a cellular telephone mobile station includes a removable battery, a backup memory for storing therein a channel connection information when the battery is removed during a conversation mode, a timer for measuring an elapsed time after the battery is removed during the conversation mode until the battery is again set, and a device for judging whether or not the elapsed time measured by the timer is within a predetermined time and when the elapsed time is within the predetermined time, for restoring voice channel on the basis of the channel connection information stored in the backup memory. The timer is provided for measuring a time during which a battery is detached, i.e., the elapsed time after the battery is detached until a new battery is again set. When the measured time of the timer is shorter than the predetermined time, a voice channel is restored on the basis of the channel connection information stored in the backup memory. As a result, when the user exchanges the old battery with a new one in the predetermined time, a radio-link continuity can easily be kept.

Title: Telecommunications apparatus
IPC: H04M1/733
Filed: 1991-01-23
Abstract: Telecommunications apparatus is provided for use in the cordless telephone environment where a number of handsets are arranged to communicate with a plurality of base stations. When a handset indicates that it wants to communicate with a base station it may be recognised by a base station which is not necessarily the nearest one for best reception. The base station, before setting up a link, compares the received signal strength with a predetermined stored threshold level. If the signal strength is above the level, the base station immediately attempts to set up a link. If it is below the level, the identity of the handset is stored and if the same base station receives a subsequent request from the same handset it then attempts to set up a link with that handset. <IMAGE>

Title: Structure with magnetic properties
IPC: H01Q15/00
Filed: 1999-12-23
Abstract: A structure which exhibits magnetic properties when it receives electromagnetic radiation is formed from an array of capacitive elements each of which is smaller, and preferably much smaller, than the wavelength of the radiation. Each capacitive element has a low resistance conducting path associated with it and is such that a magnetic component of the received electromagnetic radiation induces an electrical current to flow around the path and through the associated element. The creation of internal magnetic fields generated by the flow of the induced electrical current gives rise to the structure's magnetic properties.
