Patent CA-2096509-A1 (CA)
Title: Switch lever operating device with automatic timer
Inventor: ELLINGHAM DONALD B
IPC: H01H23/14
Filed: 1993-05-18
Abstract: ABSTRACT For operating a switch which has a switch lever, such as a toggle switch lever, The invention provides a device which fits over the switch with the switch lever engaged by a slide on the device. Manual operation of the slide moves the switch lever from OFF to ON. The same operation of the slide starts a timer and sets a return mechanism which is retained at its set position by a latch until the timer at the end of a preset time interval actuates a release mechanism which retracts the latch. The return mechanism then returns the slide to turn the switch lever OFF. All of the operating parts, including a self-contained power source are within a housing that fits over the switch. In preferred embodiments the timer is a microcomputer chip. An optional time interval selector is described for presetting a selected time interval for the timer. A single manual movement of the slide causes the device to automatically execute the rest of its cycle.
Patent CA-2097630-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCCORMACK ANN L
IPC: B32B27/12
Filed: 1993-06-03
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE      Disclosed herein is a bulk-stretched pillowed laminate of two or more layers in which at least one of the layers is stretched before other layers are attached to it.   In one execution, a thermoplastic film is stretched until it permanently deforms.   Then,  while still  in a stretched state,  a nonwoven web is laminated to the film and the resultant composite is allowed to relax slightly causing the nonwoven layer to gather and pucker,  which in turn gives  the  composite  a  thicker  and  bulkier feel  and appearance.  The material of the present invention, while having a wide variety of uses, is particularly well-suited for use  as  an outercover  for personal  care absorbent articles,  including diapers, training pants and sanitary napkins.

Patent CA-2114457-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YAMADA KENJI
IPC: H04L12/70
Filed: 1994-01-28
Abstract: An assembly/disassembly system is comprised of a cell assembly and a cell disassembly, each assembly having one buffer memory with its memory area logically divided into a plurality of data areas (banks).  The cell assembly receives TDM data to assemble ATM cells by storing the TDM data into the respective banks according to the virtual channels.  When one of said banks stores the TDM data in the payload length of an ATM cell, an new bank (unused bank) is specified to store the TDM data successively.  An ATM cell is formed by using the data read out from the bank where the TDM data is stored in the payload length of an ATM cell.  The cell disassembly receives ATM cells from the ATM highway to disassemble the ATM cells into TDM data by using the buffer memory.  The payload of a received cell is stored into an unused bank. A chain of the bank addresses each storing the payload of the received ATM cell is formed for each virtual channel of received ATM cells. According to a bank address read out from the chain corresponding to each channel of the TDM highway, the data as the TDM data is read out from the buffer memory.

Title: Method and apparatus for improved throughput in a multi-node communication system with a shared resource
Inventor: CIDON ISRAEL
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1995-02-07
Abstract: A non-quota access indicator is circulated among nodes in a multi-node quota based communication system with a shared resource, indicating maximum possible non-quota access to the shared resource to a given node receiving same. Upon arrival at a node, the indicator is saved and then updated to reflect the current status of that node as either starved or satisfied, the former being a condition of currently having quota remaining and a shared resource access requirement, and the latter being a condition of either currently having no remaining quota or having no current shared resource access requirement. After updating, the node immediately propagates the indicator to the next node in the system. When a node without quota requires access to the shared resource, it compares its requirement to the last stored indicator and accesses the shared resource if the stored indicator is equal to or greater than the access requirement.
