Title: System and method for use of feature codes in a wireless communication device
Inventor: LEKVEN ERIC J
IPC: H04W88/02
Filed: 1999-03-05
Granted: 2008-01-15
Abstract: A wireless communication device (100) contains a speed-dial storage area (126) containing one or more user-entered destination telephone numbers. An additional memory area (128) contains the plurality of sets of additional digits to be added to the used-entered destination telephone number. The user associates one or more additional sets of digits to a selected user-entered destination telephone number. A  control processor(102) automatically adds the associated set of additional digits whenever the user-entered destination telephone number is selected. The sets of additional digits may be pre-programmed by the service provider or programmed by the user. The sets of additional digits may include codes for features such as caller identification transmission, caller identification blocking, message waiting cancellation, and the like. In addition, other sets of digits, such as area codes and other prefixes may be pre-programmed by the service provider or the user. The additional sets of digits may be added to all subsequent calls to the selected user-entered destination telephone number until the control processor (102) is selectively disabled. The processor may be disabled by manual intervention by the user or by turning the power-off to the wireless communication device.

Title: Optoelectronic and photonic devices
Inventor: KOWALCZYK TONY C
IPC: G02B6/34
Filed: 2000-03-22
Granted: 2008-06-17
Abstract: Optoelectronic and photonic devices (100) are formed by employing polymer materials that have a lower glass transition temperature (Tg) than the nominal operating temperature. By using such materials, the local or segmental mobility is increased so that local stress is eliminated or minimized on the polymer material, making performance more robust. The current invention involves use of polymer in an optical device (100) in an operating temperature range in the region above Tg, where the polymer segments between crosslinks are allowed local freedom of movement; however, the large-scale movement of the material may be restricted by the crosslinked structure of the polymer material. The temperature operating point of a device constructed according to the invention is thus preferably distance from both the viscoelastic region near Tg and from the glassy region below Tg.

Abstract: A hollow article made of a thermoplastic resin and having both end portions whose wall thickness changes multidirectionally with high accuracy. The hollow article is formed by bringing a cavity of a drawing unit into contact with an outlet gap of an annular orifice nozzle (including an upwardly and downwardly movable core).

IPC: H02H7/045
Filed: 2000-11-28
Granted: 2011-06-21
Abstract: Current transformer (CT) secondary currents for the windings of a power transformer are used to produce a differential current. An operating current value is obtained from the differential current value. A restraining current value is obtained from processed winding current values. Second and fourth harmonic values of the differential current are obtained and are summed with a restraining current quantity which is a result of the restraining current multiplied by a slope characteristic factor. If the operating current value is greater than the sum of the restraining current quantity and the second and fourth harmonic values, an output signal is produced which may be used as a trip signal unless it is blocked by selected blocking signals generated by another portion of the system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a veneer slicing machine. The output of prior art veneer slicing machines is limited by virtue of the fact that the slideways quickly heat up at a maximum stroke rate. As a result, the maximum permissible temperature of 120 ~C is quickly reached thereby making it necessary to shut down the machine in order to permit the slideways to cool. The inventive veneer slicing machine should be able to be used in continuous operation at a maximum stroke rate and thus function without resulting in a loss in quality.  To this end, cooling means are arranged on the slideways (16) and are provided in said slideways (16) e.g. in the form of borings (21) through which the coolant circulates whereby enabling heat to be carried away in a well-directed manner.
