Patent NZ-619140-A (NZ)
Title: Hand riveter
Inventor: BRIAN MARSHALL
IPC: B21J15/38
Filed: 2013-12-17
Abstract: 619140 A hand riveter (100) for setting a blind rivet having a rivet head, a rivet body and a mandrel extending through the rivet body is disclosed. The hand riveter includes a housing having a mouthpiece (130) for receiving the mandrel and a mandrel-tensioning means (200) mounted within the housing. A drive means (240) applies a force to the mandrel-tensioning means to move the mandrel-tensioning means relative to the mouthpiece in a tensioning direction while the rivet head bears against the mouthpiece, thereby to increase tension in the mandrel. The drive means engages with a drive engagement component of the mandrel tensioning means using a ratchet mechanism. A catch (220) prevents movement of the mandrel-tensioning means back in a direction opposed to the tensioning direction. The drive means includes a toggle linkage (210b, 230) for increasing the force applied to it by squeezing a handle (120) and thus the force that is applied to the mandrel-tensioning means. The mechanism will release the mandrel after it has parted from the rivet when a lever (250) is depressed which allows the ratchet and catch to disengage, the mandrel-tensioning means being biased toward a reset position by spring (150).
Patent NZ-619216-A (NZ)
Title: Cellular communication system support for limited bandwidth communication devices
Inventor: LINDOFF BENGT
IPC: H04W48/16
Filed: 2012-06-21
Abstract: Disclosed is a network node that serves a host cell in a cellular communication system. The network node transmits, at (a) first time interval(s), first control channel information on a control channel that extends over a first bandwidth of a radiofrequency spectrum. The first control channel communicates information necessary to enable a first type of communication device to receive data from the host cell. The first type of communication device can receive first bandwidth-wide signals. At (a) second time interval(s), second control channel information is transmitted on a second control channel of a first M-cell. The second control channel occupies a second bandwidth that is smaller than the first bandwidth. The second time interval(s) do(es) not coincide with any of the first time interval(s). A second type of communication device having reduced receive bandwidth capabilities compared to those of the first type of communication device is thereby made capable of being served by the node.
Patent NZ-620209-A (NZ)
Title: Producing or dispensing liquid products
Inventor: PAGE JOHN KENNETH RURIK
IPC: B67D1/12
Filed: 2012-10-22
Abstract: A system to protect the membrane in a membrane contactor used on a liquid dispensing system. A beverage, for example, is dispensed via a membrane contactor (1). The contactor employs a plurality of gas-permeable hollow fibres. The contactor has a gas port (2) communicating with the interior of the fibres and input (3) and output (4) ports for liquid communicating with space within the contactor surrounding the fibres. A gas comprising carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide is dissolved in the liquid in the contactor. The gas at a controlled pressure is supplied to the gas port (2). The liquid is supplied at a higher pressure than the gas to the input port (3) for liquid from a supply (9) of such liquid via a first valve (6) having a first valve inlet port communicating with the supply of liquid and a first valve outlet port communicating with the inlet port for liquid. Liquid with the gas dissolved therein is dispensed from the outlet port for liquid via a dispense tap to ambient. The dispensing liquid step includes a start dispense step in which dispensing commences and a stop dispense step in which dispensing is stopped. The first valve (6) is opened with the dispensing tap in the start dispense step, and is closed in the stop dispense step. Pressure build-up is relieved in liquid in communication with the space within the contactor surrounding the fibres after closure of the first valve (6) and while maintaining the first valve (6) closed. The balance between gas pressure and liquid pressure during the systems’ standby periods protects the membranes from flooding. The pressure relief may be performed by either removing a small volume of the static liquid after the dispensing step has stopped or allowing the volume of static liquid to expand by a small volume. A formula is given to calculate the appropriate volume.
