Abstract: A resilient, insulated door panel for a sliding door includes a resilient core protected by a compliant outer covering with a seal disposed about the perimeter of the panel. The panel has sufficient resilience to recover from an impact that temporarily deforms it, yet has sufficient rigidity to transmit a compressive force needed for effectively setting the seals. Much of the core is filled with air to not only provide effective insulation and resilience, but to also provide an extremely lightweight door panel that can be operated to travel rapidly along an overhead track. Some embodiments include relatively rigid backup plates that provide a solid foundation to which the perimeter seals can be attached. The backup plates are segmented so as not to completely restrict the flexibility of the door panel.

Abstract: Dans un système de télécommunications multicouche comportant une couche d'application et une couche de transport, différentes technologies de transport interfonctionnent sans clore la signalisation de la couche d'application ni inclure de technologie d'interfonctionnement dans le plan de contrôle de la couche d'application (notamment sans interfonctionnement dans la signalisation d'application). Dans différents modes de réalisation illustrés, la couche d'application est une couche réseau radio d'un système de radiotélécommunication. Dans au moins un mode de réalisation de la présente invention, une fonction d'interfonctionnement de la couche de transport est située sur une interface entre deux noeuds (26, N) du réseau d'accès radio (RAN). La fonction d'interfonctionnement peut être située dans un noeud distinct, ou dans un des noeuds ayant à la fois des interfaces ATM et protocole interne (IP). L'interfonctionnement de la présente invention a de nombreux modes d'application, quelle que soit l'interface affectée (notamment une interface Iur, une interface Iu, ou une interface Iub). Un premier mode d'interfonctionnement comprend l'interfonctionnement avec la signalisation q.aal2. L'interfonctionnement avec la signalisation q.aal2 peut être appliqué de différentes manières ou selon différentes options. Par exemple, une première option consiste à utiliser un protocole de signalisation IP spécifique par le réseau IP ; une deuxième option consiste à utiliser la signalisation q.aal2 par le réseau IP de/vers le noeud IP. Par ailleurs, la présente invention comprend également une fonction d'optimisation si des noeuds des deux côtés de l'interface (interface Iu, interface Iur ou interface Iub) sont des noeuds connectés à IP. Un autre mode d'interfonctionnement comporte l'obtention d'adresse et la liaison de paramètres d'identification devant être inclus dans des messages de signalisation d'application par consultation d'une passerelle interfonctionnement de la couche de transport. Un autre mode d'application d'interfonctionnement de la présente invention comporte la pénétration par effet tunnel.
