Title: Improved pipe joint construction and coupling therefor
Inventor: HAMILTON LARRY J
IPC: F16L25/00
Filed: 1994-09-16
Granted: 1999-01-26
Abstract: A  pipe   joint   and   coupling   construction particularly suited for joining large diameter plastic pipe as used in sewer relining.   The construction comprises first  and second sections  of cylindrical pipe having axially aligned opposed end walls with a continuous groove formed in each end wall.  The groove in each end wall is axially aligned with the groove in the opposed end wall and cooperates therewith to form a gasket receiving chamber. The coupling member is adapted to be mounted in the gasket receiving chamber for sealingly joining the pipe sections. It comprises a rigid annular core ring for mounting in the chamber to extend axially into each of the axially aligned grooves.  A resilient compressible elastomeric covering is positioned over the core ring and carried circumferentially continuous radially extending protrusions which are sized to be sealingly compressed between the core ring and the side walls of the grooves.

Title: Method and apparatus for providing user controlled call management services
Inventor: BANNISTER CECIL H
IPC: H04M3/42
Filed: 1994-05-11
Granted: 2000-08-22
Abstract: A personal communication feature is presented which facilitates the screening of incoming calls by associating the number dialed by a calling party with a function or role of the dialed number. This function or role is then sent to the subscriber when an incoming call is received. This way, the subscriber can decide to answer the incoming call knowing the role or context associated with the dialed number. The subscriber also provided with user controlled features which can be invoked by the use of DTMF codes. The subscriber can place a calling party on hold prior to answering the incoming call. In addition, the subscriber can proceed with a call transfer from a wireless telephone to a wired telephone and vice-versa, while the call is still in progress. Another feature allows the subscriber to implement a real-time call screening, while the calling party is leaving a message on voice mail. Yet another feature provides a wide area virtual extension to several subscriber such that an incoming call will be simultaneously routed to each subscriberdin the group, as if their telephones were extensions of each other.

Title: Method for reducing the surface area of carbonaceous powders
Inventor: ZHONG QIMING
IPC: C01B32/00
Filed: 1996-05-13
Granted: 2008-12-02
Abstract: The surface area of carbonaceous powders can be reduced by mixing a small amount of petroleum or coal tar pitch with the carbonaceous powder and pyrolyzing the mixture. The carbonaceous powder becomes coated with decomposition products of the pitch and the coating can have substantially lower surface area than the original carbonaceous powder. Small amounts of pyrolyzed pitch are involved and the bulk properties of the carbonaceous powder remain virtually unaffected. The method is particularly suitable for reducing the surface area of carbonaceous anode powders for use in non-aqueous rechargeable lithium ion batteries and thereby improves the safety of the batteries.

Abstract: A dry preunit (10), includes a plurality of cells (110, 112, 114) in a true bipolar configuration, which are stacked and bonded together, to impart to the device an integral and unitary construction. Each cell (114) includes two electrically conductive electrodes (111A, 111B) that are spaced apart by a predetermined distance. The cell (114) also includes two identical dielectric gaskets (121, 123) that are interposed, in registration with each other, between the electrodes (111A, 111B), for separating and electrically insulating these electrodes. When the electrodes (111A, 111B), and the gaskets (121, 123) are bonded together, at least one fill gap (130) is formed for each cell. Each cell (114) also includes a porous and conductive coating layer (119, 120) that is formed on one surface of each electrode. The coating layer (119) includes a set of closely spaced-apart peripheral microprotrusions (125), and a set of distally spaced-apart central microprotrusions (127). These microprotrusions (125,127) impart structural support to the cells, and provide additional insulation between the electrodes. An energy storage device (10A) such as a capacitor, is created with the addition of an electrolyte to the gap (130) of the dry preunit (10) and subsequent sealing of the fill ports. Organic polymers in organic solvents are used to seal the edges of electrodes of porous metal oxides, metal nitrides, or metal carbides to reduce or eleminate leakage current. The preparation of metal nitrides and metal carbides are claimed for electrode use.

Abstract: The present invention relates to polymer's electromagnetic dynamic injection moulding method and the apparatus therefor. The charging barrel and the screw as will as their associated components for carrying out the processes of plasticization, injection and pressure maintaining of the polymer are all disposed in the inner cavity of a metal moving body driven to rotate pulsatorily by an electromagnetic winding. At the time when the screw and the metal moving body are simultaneously rotating pulsatorily, the screw is at the same time making axial pulsative displaments, so that the processes of plasticization, injection and pressure maintaining are all carried out in a periodic oscillating state. This type of injection moulding method and apparatus have the advantages of small volume, light weight, low manufacturing cost, low energy consumption, low noises, wide adaptability to materials and excellent quality of the moulded products.
