Abstract: A pad production (supply) and packaging system and method for automatically producing dunnage pads and inserting one or more of the produced dunnage pads into a container for packaging of an article in the container. The invention is characterized by a pad discharge assembly and/or pad insertion assembly to provide an automatic pad production and packaging system and method, that afford advantages over existing pad production and packaging arrangements. The discharge assembly, which provides for controlled discharge of dunnage pads produced by a pad producing machine, includes a gating device for affecting passage of the pad out of the holding zone in a direction transverse to the pad length. A controller causes the discharge assembly to release a pad held in the holding zone for passage onto a working surface and preferably a conveyor in synchronous relation to movement of the conveyor for controlled deposition of pads onto the conveyor. The conveyor conveys the pad into a pad insertion zone in a first direction, and a pusher assembly is operative to push the pad from the pad insertion zone in a direction transverse to the first direction. The pusher assembly includes a plunger for engaging and pushing a pad located at the pad insertion zone; and the pad insertion zone includes an opening over which a pad is conveyed by the conveyor, and the plunger is operable to push the pad through the opening for insertion into a container. A sensor curtain is disposed near the holding zone and/or pad insertion zone to detect the insertion of a foreign object and provide an output for disabling a severing operation. One or more pad insertion assemblies can be swivelly mounted to a stand to permit relative rotatable movement therebetween from an operating position to a loading/servicing position and vice versa.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a system for electronic commerce as well as a method for checking that a buyer has electronically registered a purchase before delivery of a purchased merchandise. A problem is to secure who the buyer (SBS) is without him or her having established a relationship in advance with the seller. The invention solves the problem by letting the seller offer his/her merchandise from an application (AP1-AP3) in an internal packet data network (CSN). The packet data network is connected to a GSM-network. The buyer (SBS) is provided with a mobile terminal (MS). A session with the application can be set up only from a mobile terminal, and the application then receives information about the identity of the terminal. With reference to this identity, the application sends an order back to the GSM-network. According to one embodiment, the order means that a payment order shall be registered in a payment node, which is controlled by the operator of the GSM-network, for later charging of the buyer. According to another embodiment, a given account number is checked.

Abstract: In a communication system (100), a method and an accompanying apparatus provide for acknowledging reception of a packet of data. A receiver (400) at a serving base station (101) receives a message on an acknowledgement channel (340) for indicating the reception of the packet of data at a mobile station (102), and may determine an erasure of the message. A non-serving base station (160) may also receive the message on the acknowledgement channel (340) from the mobile station (102), determines a value of the message, and communicates the value of the message to the serving base station (101). The serving base station (101) changes the erasure to the value of the message, and terminates a transmission of a remainder of data units of the packet of data to the mobile station (102) when the value of the message is a positive acknowledgment from the non-serving base station (160).
