Abstract: Disclosed is a method for providing a broadcast service in a mobile communication
system using code division multiple access (CDMA) technology. The novel
method controls transmission of broadcast service data according to base station
areas by registering a mobile station with a broadcast service. For that purpose,
the mobile station requests an authentication server to authenticate a desired
broadcast service, and registers the authenticated broadcast service in a packet
data serving node via a base station so that the base station and the packet data
serving node can set up a transmission path for the broadcast service. The method
increases the efficiency of base station resources by controlling transmission times
of base stations, and the packet data serving node can perform accounting on the
broadcast service of the mobile station. Further, a plurality of registered mobile
stations constitute a group, and broadcast service data is transmitted from one
mobile station to other mobile stations within the group.

Filed: 2001-05-31
Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide an exhaust gas purifying catalyst formed
as a single catalyst that has a lot of freedom when being assembled into an exhaust system and that
is capable of executing both an NOx absorbing function and a three-way function in a refined
manner. To attain the this object, an absorbent catalyst layer to which an absorbent agent such as
potassium and an acid material such as zeolite are added, an absorbent agent block layer formed of
zeolite, and a three-way catalyst layer to which an acid material such as phosphorus is added are
bonded together on a cordierite carrier. The acid material in the absorbent catalyst layer and the
absorbent agent block layer inhibit the movement of the absorbent agent to the three-way catalyst
layer, and transform the absorbent agent into harmless and stable potassium phosphate even if the
absorbent agent reaches the three-way catalyst.

Abstract: An automated endoscope reprocessor ( 10 ) includes a removable rack ( 12 ) for receiving a container ( 16, 16' ). The container has a clamshell housing ( 20 ) having two mating portions ( 24, 26 ). The portions together define an internal pressurizable chamber ( 56 ) for receiving an endoscope head ( 22 ). The endoscope's connector cord ( 82 ) is carried through an outlet ( 80 ) to the chamber. The outlet is defined by channels ( 88, 90 ), one in each of the two housing portions ( 24, 26 ). A gasket assembly in the outlet provides a restricted fluid passage which allows a small portion of fluid to flow through the outlet when the connector cord is positioned therein. The gasket assembly ( 120 ) includes a number of resiliently flexible fins ( 126, 128, 130 ) positioned in each channel, each fin having a U-shaped slot ( 144, 146, 148 ). Pairs of fins overlap such that the slots together define openings ( 150 ) of diminishing size. Depending on the diameter of the cord, the cord is contacted by one or more of the fins adjacent the respective slot. A reprocessing liquid, such as peracetic acid in solution, is pumped into the chamber ( 56 ). The liquid leaks slowly through the slots, allowing an above ambient pressure to be maintained in the chamber, while ensuring that all exterior surfaces of the endoscope are contacted with the reprocessing liquid.
