Patent EP-1056269-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MIZIKOVSKY SEMYON B
IPC: H04M15/00
Filed: 2000-05-09
Abstract: A unique method and apparatus for ensuring delivery of accurate and complete
advice of charge (AOC) information to a wireless terminal as soon as the advice of
charge information is assembled by a billing center and the wireless terminal registers
with a system is disclosed. A Short Message Service (SMS) mechanism is used to
deliver the AOC information to the wireless terminal from an SMS Message Center.
When a billing record for a particular wireless terminal call has been assembled by the
billing center, the billing record is sent to an SMS Message Center. The SMS Message
Center queries the Home Location Register (HLR) of the wireless terminal to determine
the current location and address of the wireless terminal. The HLR will return the
current location and address of the system in which the wireless terminal is currently
registered to the SMS Message Center. Utilizing this information, the SMS Message
Center can then send the billing record to the wireless terminal. Since the current
location and address of the wireless terminal are known before the AOC information is
sent, the risk of losing the AOC information is significantly reduced and the AOC
information will be delivered to the wireless terminal.

Abstract: A dockleveler (16) having a lip (24) that can be both moved
between a pendent inoperative position and an operative
position and moved from a retracted to an extended
position. This feature allows the lip (24) to be partially
extended during an end load so that the lip engages a
portion of the vehicle (28) bed and does not contact the load.
The dockleveler (16) further includes a barrier (32) that is
resiliently mounted to provide a cushioning effect when
impacted by material handling equipment. This feature
reduces the likelihood of damage to the barrier and/or
dockleveler, and further reduces the chance of disrupting

Abstract: Anastomotic methods and devices for placing a target vessel in fluid communication with a target vessel. A conduit (10) includes an attachment portion (12) adapted to be secured to a target vessel in fluid communication with the lumen of the vessel. The target vessel wall is sandwiched between first and second components (14, 16) of the attachment portion (12) to provide both a secure and sealed connection. One component (14) is placed in the vessel lumen against the interior surface of the wall and has an outlet that directs blood into the target vessel. This component (14) is elongated, e.g., elliptical or rectangular, such that a minimum amount of material is present at the outlet. This results in the outlet having a diameter that substantially maintains much of the cross-sectional area of the native target vessel. The attachment portion does not significantly occlude the target vessel lumen, is secured to the vessel wall in non-penetrating fashion.
