Abstract: A rivet setting tool (12) is provided including a pulling head (43) and a jaw case (44) connected to the pulling head (43) such that the jaw case (44) is driven by the pulling head (43) to engage a rivet mandrel. Air is supplied to the pulling head (43) to return the pulling head (43) to its original position after a rivet (R) has been set. A remote intensifier (40) is provided including an air piston (224) disposed in a piston chamber (220) and a rod (228) connected to the air piston (224) and extending into a ram housing (230) which is connected to a hydraulic passage (212) which is connected to the pulling head (43). A first supply of pressurized gas communicates with a first end of the piston chamber (220) and a second supply of pressurized gas communicates with a second end of the piston chamber (220) for rapidly returning the air piston (224) to the retracted position in combination with the air pressure applied to the pulling head (43). The second end of the piston chamber (220) is vented to prevent to much pressure build up pushing the piston (224) to the retracted position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electrical protection system includes a control element of a series combination of a PTC device thermally coupled with a resistive device, and a relay coil coupled with relay contacts. If the relay contacts are open the only way in which they can be closed is by supplying current to the relay coil through a resistance-capacitance network. A diode permits current to pass through the resistance-capacitance network to the relay coil but prevents current from flowing in the opposite direction thereby preventing relay contact chatter, contact fusing, and potential relay catastrophic failure.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of supporting an audio protocol in a network environment. Audio processing and hardware requirements associated with a receiver are minimized by specifying a single audio protocol for transmission of audio data between transmitters on a network and the receiver. The protocol specifies a sampling rate, bit resolution and quantization scheme which allow for high sound quality and further minimize the complexity of the receiver. Transmitters are equipped with drivers to provide for conversion of audio data into the designated protocol as needed. Aspects of the designated protocol are provided to compensate for problems associated with transmitting audio streams over a network. The designated protocol specifies a format for interleaving audio samples within data packets to minimize errors which are the result of consecutive missing audio data samples due to packet loss. The receiver may further compensate for missing audio data samples through interpolation. In accordance with the designated protocol, a sequence size is specified to govern how the audio data is processed. The transmitter controls the sequence size adaptively to maintain audio latency within a limit specified for each audio application. The designated protocol also provides for determination of a mix mode and a number of channels for specifying how audio data with multiple channels is mixed and routed among multiple audio output devices.

Abstract: A germinating unit for germination of seeds comprises two material layers (2, 3) of paper and a seed (4) placed between said two material layers. A mixture (5) of a carrier and additives is placed between the material layers, said additives being permanently or loosely bound to said carrier by means of a binder. The seed (4) and the mixture (5) are bound to at least one of the material layers (2, 3). The two material layers are interconnected preferably at their rim portions (1') by being glued or pressed together by way of stamping. A germinating tape can be formed by means of a row of coherent germinating units. As a result the germinating unit and the germinating tape are produced in a very simple an cost-saving manner, and furthermore it is very environmentally acceptable. In addition, the germination can be efficiently controlled, and it is easy to mechanically bed out the germinating unit in the soil at a desired interval and a desired depth.

Abstract: A valve (26) for the braking system of a tractor/trailer combination ensures that the trailer brakes (22) are not inadvertently released as the service and supply lines are connected. A valve member (54) is normally closed by a bias applied through an actuating member (34) to prevent release of the trailer brakes. A single actuation of the vehicle brake pedal (24) biases the actuating member (34) oppositely, allowing the valve member (54) to open; thereafter the valve member (54) is maintained in the open condition until the trailer is disconnected from the tractor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a signaling method and network element for a virtual private network, wherein a destination capability is determined in response to the receipt of a connection request from a subscriber belonging to the virtual private network. Based on the determination result, an initiation of a virtual private network signaling in the call set-up is decided. Thereby, the signaling load can be reduced already in the originating point if the destination is not able to support the signaling required for the virtual private network. The capability determination may be based on a private numbering plan required for a number translation in the telecommunication network.

Abstract: The basic principle is to control the time of usage of the system by exploiting the movement of the vanes of a normal meter, appropriately modified without this impairing its basic operation. Obtaining by such modification a digital signal able to synchronise an intelligent timer, with times of intervention previously set by the user himself. In other words, when the time of use exceeds the desired time, the unit detects [it] by signalling the extended outflow of water optically via a pilot light [and] acoustically by making a siren sound and blocking the flow through a normally open electric valve. Said device should be placed upstream from the water supply system, directly at the outlet of the water system itself. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The need to protect the environment yet also to produce and recover increasingly larger quantities of energy for civilian and industrial use is leading to the creation of inventions aimed at capturing and transforming into energy even the most complex and variable manifestations of free energy occurring in nature. In particular, that which can be assigned to the most widespread fluid- dynamic phenomena of alternating character, such as the motion of waves, the tides, yet also unstable winds, alternating currents of large dimension, etc. In this regard, the present invention has taken shape and dimension, whose following functional scheme is applicable to the most diverse circumstances involved in these purposes, that is: to transform the motion of any given fluid under alternating movement into a motion that is rotary yet always in the same direction. Said invention consists in the synthesis of a rotor with floating blades, whose blades in fact float on their own axes and are oriented alternately as the fluid moving through the apparatus alternates in its passage. This allows said rotating apparatus to always maintain the same direction of rotation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a receiver for high-speed numerical transmissions through Rayleigh channels noisy and dispersive in time and frequency in which an accurate estimate of the channel response is combined in an optimal manner with the received data sequence detection procedure. Specifically the a posteriori probability of the Markov chain of the states of the channel with intersymbolic interference are calculated recursively from the data received and from the updated channel estimate. The a posteriori probabilities calculated are used in turn by a Kalman estimator to record the channel variations. On the basis of the sequence of the calculated a posteriori probabilities the detection is then calculated symbol by symbol with the highest a posteriori probability having a small decision delay. <IMAGE>
