Patent EP-1942613-A3 (EP)
Inventor: BENNETT JAMES D
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2007-12-11
Abstract: A wireless access point and multiple wireless terminals exchange utilization, status, mobility and reception characteristics. Each wireless terminal generates reception characteristics based on transmissions received from the wireless access point and from other devices in the network. In one operating mode, the characteristics gathered by the wireless devices are forwarded to the wireless access point, and, based on all received characteristics, the wireless access point selects a client device for the relay of communications between itself and another client device. In another mode of operation, the access point selects a relay proxy on a transmission by transmission basis. In response to a request, a servicing client device repeats intercepted transmissions sent by a client device and intended for the access point.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a photocathode (1A) having a structure to dramatically improve the effective quantum efficiency in comparison with that of a conventional art, an photomultiplier and an electron tube. The photocathode comprises a supporting substrate (100A) transmitting or blocking an incident light, a photoelectron emitting layer (300) containing an alkali metal provided on the supporting substrate, and an underlayer (200) provided between the supporting substrate and the photoelectron emitting layer. Particularly, the underlayer contains a beryllium oxide, and is adjusted in its thickness such that a thickness ratio of the underlayer to the photoelectron emitting layer falls within a specific range. This structure allows to obtain a photocathode having a dramatically improved quantum efficiency.

Abstract: An apparatus for splitting a signal and a video device using the same are disclosed. The apparatus includes a first splitting unit (110-1) to split an inputted broadcast signal into a first broadcast signal (BS-1) and a second broadcast signal (BS-2), and to supply the first broadcast signal to a first broadcast signal processing element (A), and a second splitting unit (110-2) to split the second broadcast signal into a third broadcast signal (BS-3) and a fourth broadcast signal (BS-4), and to supply the third broadcast signal to a second broadcast signal processing element (B). With this construction, the apparatus can distribute and provide a broadcast signal with a noise figure (NF) lower than that of other broadcast signals, to an element, which requires a broadcast signal with a low noise figure. In addition, the apparatus can split the inputted broadcast signal without using an active element, such as an amplifier or the like, thereby allowing the split broadcast signals to lower the NF thereof and to uniformly maintain a gain thereof. Also, the apparatus can prevent interferences, which are generated between adjacent ports.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Transport von Wärmeenergie von zumindest einer Wärmequelle zu zumindest einer Wärmesenke, insbesondere für ein Fernwärmenetz, mittels eines Arbeitsmediums, das eine Mischung von zumindest einer ersten Komponente mit einem ersten Siedepunkt und einer zweiten Komponente mit einem zweiten Siedepunkt umfasst, wobei der erste Siedepunkt niedriger ist als der zweite Siedepunkt. Das Verfahren umfasst den Schritt eines zumindest teilweisen Verdampfens der ersten Komponente des Arbeitsmediums durch Zufuhr von Wärme von der Wärmequelle. Der verdampfte Teil der ersten Komponente wird separat von dem durch das Verdampfen bezüglich der ersten Komponente abgereicherten Arbeitsmedium von der Wärmequelle zu der Wärmesenke mittels eines Transportmittels transportiert. Danach wird die verdampfte erste Komponente durch das abgereicherte Arbeitsmedium unter Abgabe der beim Verdampfen aufgenommenen Wärme an die Wärmesenke absorbiert. Die Temperatur der ersten Komponente und des abgereicherten Arbeitsmediums entspricht bei dem Transport von der Wärmequelle zu der Wärmesenke im Wesentlichen einer in der Umgebung des Transportmittels herrschenden Temperatur. Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin eine Extraktionsvorrichtung zur Erhöhung des Wirkungsgrads der Extraktion einer Komponente des Arbeitsmediums und ein Fernwärmenetz zum Transport von Wärmeenergie.

Abstract: A ticket or game card contains information such as a number, code or password by which a player accesses an electronic wager game on a web site using a computer. The ticket is associated with some quantum of credit (non-cashable or cashable) which the player uses to play turns of the game. The game has a pay table that includes losing results, intermediate results in which the player wins additional non-cashable resources (such as additional spins or additional non-cashable credit) and winning results in which the player wins credit redeemable for cash. The winning results can be directly converted to cash on a one to one basis, or converted to cash value by means of a second pay table. The systems and methods can be used to implement a lottery in which case the ticket is a lottery ticket. Alternatively, a player purchases the card and then proceeds to play at a land-based or online casino.

Abstract: A fishing reel (10) having a spool shaft (18), a hand-driven crown wheel (28), a reciprocating mechanism (38, 40) coupled to the spool shaft (18) and the crown wheel (28) to reciprocate the spool shaft (18) longitudinally when the crown wheel (28) is rotated. An auxiliary shaft (44) is coupled to the spool shaft (18) such that rotation of one of the shafts about its axis causes rotation of the other about its axis. The auxiliary shaft (44) is provided with a locking mechanism (48 to 78) which serves to lock it and hence also the spool shaft (18) against axial rotation. The locking mechanism (48 to 78) comprises an actuating member (54) movable between a lock engagement position and a lock disengagement position. A dead-point mechanism (64) is coupled to the actuating member (54) so that the actuating member (54) operates the dead-point mechanism (64) and vice versa. A lock member (48) is fixed to the auxiliary shaft (44). A detent (50) is arranged to be operated by the actuating member (54) such that it is moved from an engagement region which it occupies when the actuating member (54) is in its lock engagement position. The detent (50) engages the lock member (48) to lock the auxiliary shaft (44), and with it the spool shaft (18), against rotation, to a disengagement region when the actuating member (54) is in its lock disengagement position, so that the spool shaft (18) is rotatable about its axis. The dead-point mechanism (64) has an engagement portion (74) which is engagable by a switching portion (80) which rotates with the crown wheel (28) to switch the dead-point mechanism (64) and with it the actuating member (54) from its lock disengagement position to its lock engagement position when the crown wheel (28) is rotated. The engagement portion (74) comprises a leg portion (74) which is pivotally attached at one end to a movable part (66) of the dead-point mechanism (64) and has a free end (78) further from that pivoted end. The leg portion (74) is oriented such that when the switching portion (80) engages the said free end (78) of the leg portion (74) it urges the latter in a direction towards the pivot end of the leg portion (74). The dead-point mechanism (64) is so constructed that the free end (78) of the leg portion (74) is retracted away from the switching portion (80) when the dead-point mechanism (64) is thus switched.
