Title: Air filter element with integral radial seal gasket
Inventor: EHRENBERG BRIAN T
IPC: F02M35/024
Filed: 2001-09-13
Abstract: An air filter element having end caps molded of foam material, and in which one of the foam end caps also employs the foam material as a radial seal gasket. Tubular inner and outer liners support a tubular filter element. The first ends are molded in a closed urethane end cap sealing one end of the filter element. The other end is molded to provide an open end cap in the form of an annular ring which encases the filter element and the liners, and provides a radial seal gasket. A  substantially rigid plastic ring has a base embedded in the open end cap annular ring, and an upstanding flange which carries the radial seal gasket. The ring closely fits within the inner liner, and the fit between the inner liner and ring provides a fluid restriction such that when the foamed urethane material forms on the annular flange, it carries up one side of the upstanding flange to form the ring, but is restrained from passing to the other side to leave an isolating gap between the other surface of the flange and the inner liner.

Title: System and method for providing mobile location-relevant commerce
Inventor: SANDHU KULBIR S
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2001-10-25
Abstract: A method for facilitating a commercial transaction based on a current location of a mobile customer and a mobile merchant provides opportunity for commercial transaction not previously possible. In one application, the method establishes a wireless link between a server on a wide-area network and mobile customer, and obtains from the mobile customer a current location by reading automatically from a positioning device associated and located with said customer. Based on the current location so obtained, the server matches the mobile customer, as one party of the commercial transaction, with one or more business concern within a predetermined distance from the current location, so that the business concern can act as a counter-party to complete the commercial transaction. This and other location-relevant services can be delivered to the mobile person in a system including a positioning device mounted on a vehicle and an associated handheld unit that the mobile person can carry around as he or she is outside the vehicle in its vicinity. The handheld unit communicates with the positioning device using a second wireless link (e.g., a local RF or infra-red link).

Abstract: A new key telephone system including a new key telephone and new telephone interface which use a new data transmission scheme has been developed, unlike an old key telephone system including an old telephone and old telephone interface unit which use an old data transmission scheme. The new telephone interface unit and new key telephone are compatible with both the new and old data transmission schemes. Even if, therefore, the new telephone interface unit is connected to the old key telephone, or the old telephone interface unit is connected to the new key telephone, data transmission can be performed by using the old data transmission scheme, thus maintaining compatibility.
