Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI97/00062 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 7, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 7, 1997 PCT Filed Feb. 4, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/29566 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 14, 1997A compression method and apparatus for a transmission link in a telecommunications network between switching centers each associated with a compression apparatus connected thereto by a number of PCM transmission channels for receiving a speech signal from each PCM transmission channel and transferring the speech signal via an interconnecting PCM link having a transmission capacity lower than the number of transmission channels received from the switching center to the other compression apparatus. The speech signal between the first switching center and the compression apparatus is either a pure PCM coded speech signal or a PCM coded speech signal in which one or more least significant bits of the PCM samples provide a sub-channel for lower-rate vocoded speech containing the same speech information as the PCM samples but in a vo-coded format. The interconnecting link has one or more PCM channels in each of which all bits of the PCM samples are utilized for providing two or more subchannels in each of which lower-rate vocoded speech or data can be transmitted. One compression apparatus is arranged, in response a PCM coded speech signal containing the subchannel, to multiplex the content of the subchannel into one of the subchannels in the interconnecting link, and, in response to a pure PCM coded speech signal, to encode the latter into a lower-rate vocoded speech signal and to multiplex the vocoded speech signal into one of the subchannels in the interconnecting link.

Abstract: The unit consists of a coaxial plug module with coaxial plug connectors arranged in a multiple plug casing, and/or a coaxial socket module with coaxial socket connectors arranged in a multiple socket casing. The coaxial plug module and/or socket module (1) is fastened on a base, such as a printed circuit board, and is connected with its terminals to the associated connections at the underside of the base. The inner coaxial conductors (22) are inserted in, and electrically isolated from the respective outer coaxial conductors (21) integrated in the casing (3, 43) of the coaxial plug/socket module. The casing material of the coaxial plug/socket module consists of a metallized plastic, and comprises a number of support surfaces at its lower surface, formed of contact feet (5, 6) with SMD connections (7, 8), which serve both for the mounting of the casing, as well as for the electric connection of the SMD connections with the respective connections on the base. The contact feet are arranged at the edges of the periphery of the casing and on the same level as the SMD connections which project slightly from the floor (9) of the casing. The metallic layer deposition of the casing is divided between the metallic layer deposition of the contact feet and the SMD connections (8) for the inner conductors, and the remaining metallic layer deposition of the casing, into electrically separated layer areas for a galvanic separation.

Title: Respirator assembly
IPC: A62B18/04
Filed: 2002-05-08
Abstract: A respirator assembly e.g. for NBC protection is formed from two separate sub-assemblies. The first sub-assembly comprises a flexible hood (or other suitable headgear), a rigid mounting ring and a peripheral face seal. The second sub-assembly comprise a face plate with lens, oronasal mask and inlet and outlet valves, and is demountably attachable to the ring.

Title: A method and apparatus for enabling the determination of the location of a terminal in a communications system
IPC: H04L12/715
Filed: 2003-09-30
Abstract: In a telecommunications network utilising in particular soft phones it is sometimes difficult to identify the location of the "phone" making a call. This is particularly significant when the call is one made to an emergency service for urgent assistance. A location manager is included in the network to assign port addresses to certain line identification numbers. Then in order to locate the calling terminal the port location is utilised. Assuming an emergency originates at terminal D, the spanning tree protocol is utilised and the network manager 6 identifies from bridge protocol data units the root node (switch 2) and port 8 connected to the terminal D.

Title: Recovery of chlorine
IPC: C01G49/10
Filed: 1984-06-13
Abstract: Chlorine may be recovered from residues from the fluidised bed chlorination of iron-containing metalliferous oxidic materials, such as ilmenite, bauxite, chromite, wolframite, scheelite, tantalite or columbite, the residues containing condensed iron chloride and blow-over bed solids, by heating the residue to revolatalise the iron chloride and reacting it with oxygen. The quantity of iron chloride in the oxidic material is controlled relative to the quantity of blow-over carbon so that the quantity of carbon is sufficient on combustion to provide the required heat but is insufficient to cause undue dilution of the chlorine produced by virtue of its combustion products. Chlorine of a concentration suitable for direct recycle to a chlorination process, e.g. of 30% to 50% volume concentration is produced.

Title: Semi-conductor-integrated circuits
IPC: H03K19/177
Filed: 1986-09-10
Abstract: Configurable semiconductor integrated circuits as-made each have a plurality of logic circuits formed at discrete sites (10S). For each logic circuit, direct selectably conducting/non- conducting connection paths (14A,B,C,F) extend from its output to input of a first set of other logic circuits and to its inputs from outputs of a second set of other logic circuits. All of the sets for all of the logic circuits are each different. Other direct connection paths (50R,50C) are selectably connectable to inputs (14D,E) and outputs (52G,H) of the logic circuits. Selection can be irreversible (Figure 8) or reversible (Figures 9, 10, 11, 18) and involves coincident signal addressing (22R,C) of the sites (105) and coded configuring ofthe paths at that site. Reversible selection can beviafield effect transistors or bipolar transistors and can be at or near normal logic signal levels and speeds (Figures 11 and 18). Versatile configurable input/output arrangements are described (Figures 13-16), also reconfigurable data processing systems using the reversible transistor provisions (Figures 20-23).
