Abstract: The disclosed mulcher has a base unit and a shredding blade in a removabl e assembly. Two different embodiments are disclosed. In both embodiments, sh redded material is removed from air exiting the shredding blade before it re aches an exhaust port. In one embodiment, the material is removed by a filte r. In the other embodiment, walls are arranged so that debris must double ba ck against high-speed airflow leaving the shredding blade before exiting the unit. The shredding blade can be mounted in front of and on the same shaft as an air impeller, with the back surface of the shredding blade being suppo rted by the impeller. In another embodiment, the air impeller and the shredd ing blade are carried in assemblies that are separable from each other and a re each separately attachable to a base unit. A detachable power module and a detachable blower are also shown. The power module has a safety switch tha t disables the power module when it is removed. A power receptacle is shown with a switch that alternately switches power to either the shredder motor o r to the power receptacle, but not to both simultaneously.

Abstract: A liquid dispensing device (300) includes a storage container (320) and d ome pump mechanism (500, 600) attached thereto for metered dispensing. A one -way valve (508, 612) is employed to pull liquid from the storage container (300) into the dome (508, 608) for metering. An exit passageway (506, 606) s erves as an output valve. Each time the dome pump housing (508, 608) is depr essed, a substantially equal volume of fluid is dispensed from the container (320). To prevent accidental dispensing, the one-way valve in the dome pump remains normally open and unsealed to allow backflow of liquid back into th e storage container (320) pouch when pressure is placed on the dome (508, 60 8). The user squeezes the dome (508, 608) and base plate together to seal th e one-way valve to urge liquid out through the exit port for actual dispensi ng. The dome pump (500, 600) is integrally formed with a top portion of the exit pathway. Optionally, the base plate (502) and bottom portion (504) of t he exit pathway are also integrally formed to facilitate manufacture and red uce costs of the pump (500, 600) while improving performance thereof.

Title: Adaptation of transmit power based on maximum received signal strength
Inventor: YAVUZ MEHMET
IPC: H04W52/04
Filed: 2008-08-08
Abstract: Transmit power (e.g., maximum transmit power) may be defined based on the maximum received signal strength allowed by a receiver and a minimum coupling loss from a transmitting node to a receiver. Transmit power may be defined for an access node (e.g., a femto node) such that a corresponding outage created in a cell (e.g., a macro cell) is limited while still providing an acceptable level of coverage for access terminals associated with the access node. An access node may autonomously adjust its transmit power based on channel measurement and a defined coverage hole to mitigate interference. Transmit power may be defined based on channel quality. Transmit power may be defined based on a signal-to-noise ratio at an access terminal. The transmit power of neighboring access nodes also may be controlled by inter-access node signaling.
