Abstract: Un combiné écouteur (1) comprend des branches allongées gauche et droite (22, 23) présentant respectivement des premières extrémités, destinées à recevoir des embouts auriculaires (20, 21), et des deuxièmes extrémités interconnectées (60, 61). Chaque branche (22, 23) comporte un corps allongé monobloc (34, 35) réalisé en un matériau souple et faisant ressort, courbé vers l'extérieur pour épouser la forme de tête de l'utilisateur quand les embouts auriculaires (20, 21) sont appliqués dans les oreilles de celui-ci. Le corps allongé (34, 35) est constitué d'un premier segment, à section transversale réduite et donc plus souple à proximité de la deuxième extrémité (60, 61) de la branche correspondante (22, 23), et d'un deuxième segment moins souple situé entre ce premier segment et l'embout auriculaire correspondant (20, 21). La courbure des corps allongés (34, 35), quand les branches (22, 23) sont écartées, est donc plus marquée sur les premiers segments et la pression appliquée aux oreilles de l'utilisateur par les embouts (20, 21) provient essentiellement de ces premiers segments courbes et elle est transmise à ces embouts par l'intermédiaire des deuxièmes segements moins souples. Les branches allongées (22, 23) présentent respectivement des deuxièmes segments terminaux (60, 61) assemblés côte à côte, et un manchon fileté (50) est fixé sur ces segments (60, 61) et peut tourner et se déplacer longitudinalement pour donner un réglage de la pression appliquée par les embouts (20, 21) aux oreilles de l'utilisateur.

Title: Method and apparatus for testing a digital communication channel at variable or fixed data rates
Inventor: BAYLEY GWAIN
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 1995-11-29
Granted: 2005-06-07
Abstract: The invention provides a system and method for testing signal transmission quality wihin a digital communication system and may be incorporated within a digital cellular communication system in which information is exchanged over spread spectrum communication channels. A test sequence of digital data transmitted over the communication channel is received at a receiving station, within which is also generated a replica of the test sequence of digital data. The accuracy of transmission over the communication channel is then determined by comparing the replica of the test sequence of digital data to the test sequence of data received over the communication channel. The invention allows the test sequence of digital data to be transmitted at one of a set of known data rates, with the received station being disposed to identify the data rate associated with each test sequence of digital data. In order to simulate the transmission of, for example, voice data, the system may be configured such that each test sequence of digital data is generated in accordance with a pseudorandom process.

Granted: 2003-09-16
Abstract: A vertical blind that includes a plurality of louvers of which certain louvers are alternately positioned and can placed in various positions so that the vertical blind can be fully changed in form. The vertical blind further includes a rotation-transferring mechanism on alternating carriers. The rotation-transferring mechanism serves to transfer the rotation of the shaft, which is mounted in the head rail, to the louvers, which are hung from the alternating carriers, so that the louvers rotate around their vertical axes. If the louvers that are hung from the carriers with the rotation-transferring mechanism are positioned so that they are almost perpendicular to the head rail, each louver hung from those carriers that are not equipped with a rotation-transferring mechanism almost covers each space left between the louvers on either side of the louver hung from the carrier with the rotation-transferring mechanism.

Abstract: In a hierarchical network, an aggregation parameter is exchanged between a node and its neighbor to agree on a negotiated parameter. A set of physical links between them are aggregated into a logical link according to the negotiated parameter and resource data of the logical link is stored in a database of each node. The resource data is then exchanged between them and the contents of the database of each node are updated with resource data of its neighbor. To optimize the link aggregation, an operating performance of the logical link is evaluated by the node using traffic data from the network, and the negotiated parameter is updated according to the detected operating performance. The updated aggregation parameter of the node is exchanged with its neighbor to agree on a negotiated updated parameter which is used to aggregate the physical links into the logical link.

Abstract: Un porte-cartouche (400) inclut un corps d'enveloppe (420) dont une cavité (421, 422) se trouve dans l'axe longitudinal du corps d'enveloppe (420). Une vis flottante (440) est caractérisée par un axe longitudinal et un trou traversant la vis flottante dans sa longueur. Cette vis flottante (440) est conçue pour être reçue sur la cavité (422) de façon que la vis flottante (440) soit mobile par rapport au corps d'enveloppe (420) le long de l'axe longitudinal du corps d'enveloppe (420). Toutefois, le mouvement de rotation de la vis flottante (440) autour de l'axe longitudinal du corps d'enveloppe (420) est limité par une réduction de passage (424) de la cavité (422). Une unité de sortie (430), pourvue d'une tige (433) caractérisée par un perçage central (431) et une longueur supérieure à celle de la vis flottante (440), est conçue pour être mobile une fois insérée dans le perçage (441) de la vis flottante (440), de façon qu'une première extrémité de l'unité de sortie (430) dépasse du perçage (441) et qu'une seconde extrémité de l'unité de sortie (430) pénètre dans la cavité (421). Le dispositif comporte un couvercle d'extrémité (410) qui reçu sur la cavité (421). A l'utilisation, une cartouche (450) est placée à l'intérieur de la cavité (421) du corps d'enveloppe (420), entre le couvercle d'extrémité (410) et l'unité de sortie (430). La vis flottante (440) peut se visser sur un embout (470) d'une colonne de chromatographie (480), par rotation du corps d'enveloppe (420), l'unité de sortie 430 étant poussée pendant ce temps vers l'embout (470) de façon à réaliser un raccord à volume mort nul. Il en résulte que ce porte-cartouche (400) s'adapte à tous les types d'embouts de colonne grâce à l'auto-ajustage de la position de la vis flottante (440) par rapport à l'unité de sortie (430). Le porte-cartouche (400) peut également être modifié pour raccorder une tubulure (490) directement à l'embout (470) d'une colonne de chromatographie (480).
