Abstract: A fastening device (2; 102) for securing a tray (16) to a hollow channel support (18), such as the type commonly used to support cable trays. The support means (18) has a cross-sectional shape defining a channel along its length. The support means (18) also has lip portions (26, 28) depending inwardly of the channel to partially close the channel in an upper region thereof, thereby firstly defining a slot along the length of the support and secondly providing edges internally of the channel behind which the device can be engaged. The tray (16) comprises at least a base (30) connected to side walls (32, 34) having upper edges (36, 38) to which the device (2; 102) can be secured. The fastening device (2; 102) of the invention is a unitary component and has a curled portion defining a rim which is disposed over an upper edge of the tray and base portion with tabs. The base portion is spaced apart from the rim by a body portion of a pre-determined distance. The upper edges of the tabs of the base portion engage with the internal edges of the channel and the device is snap fittingly attached between the tray and channel support in use. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system (18) for handling animal cages (10) includes a low noise tipping funnel (16) into which waste bedding from the cage is emptied for transporting to a dumpster (20). The tipping funnel includes a receiving funnel (110) which receives the waste bedding. An air duct is positioned adjacent three sides of an upper opening (114) to the receiving funnel. A suction fan (76) draws airborne particles of the waste bedding into the air duct through a housing (134) over the top of the air duct. The housing creates an air path which minimizes transfer of noise generated in the suction process. The waste bedding is transferred from the receiving funnel into a vacuum line by a rotating valve (202) having a plurality of vanes (211). As the valve rotates, two or more of the vanes separate the receiving funnel from the vacuum line, minimizing transfer of noise from the vacuum line out through the upper opening of the receiving funnel.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to construct a data communication network system having as a component an entertainment system that includes an entertainment apparatus to which a portable information communication terminal is freely detachably attached. In the data communication network system in accordance with the present invention, the entertainment system transmits an identification number assigned to the portable information communication terminal and input data or a message to a computer system acting as a server over a bi-directional communication network. The computer system transmits a command, which is responsive to the identification number and the input data or message, to a computer system having a database over a link realized with a LAN. The computer system retrieves information, which is associated with the input data or message, from the database, and transmits (broadcasts) the information together with the identification number to the portable information communication terminal through the link realized with radiocommunication over a unidirectional communication network. A networked data processing system serving as an asynchronous message exchange system or an asynchronous data summation and results distribution system can be constructed.

Abstract: A pattern is determined of the neck movement of a subject. The head/body movement of the subject is recorded with markers placed on the shoulders and on the head and thus moving with the subject. The locus curve of each marker in three-dimensional space is then determined in dependence on the time and it is stored as a data set. The neck movement is isolated from the head and torso movements by determining the difference between the average of the two locus curves that represent the shoulder movements and the locus curve representing the head movement. The pattern of movement established on the cranio-corpo-graphy is evaluated and analyzed using a data-processing device. The method is particularly suitable for determining the presence and the severity of an injury to the cervical spine as a result of whiplash caused by a traffic accident.

Abstract: A tandem cell or photoelectrochemical system for the cleavage of water to hydrogen and oxygen by visible light has two superimposed photocells, both cells being connected electrically. The photoactive material in the top cell is a semiconducting oxide placed in contact with an aqueous solution. This semiconducting oxide absorbs the blue and green part of the solar emission spectrum of a light source or light sources and generates with the energy collected oxygen and protons from water. The not absorbed yellow and red light transmits the top cell and enters a second photocell, the bottom cell, which is mounted, in the direction of the light behind, preferably directly behind the top cell. The bottom cell includes a dye-sensitized mesoporous photovoltaic film. The bottom cell converts the yellow, red and near infrared portion of the sunlight to drive the reduction of the protons, which are produced in the top cell during the photo catalytic water oxidation process, to hydrogen.

Abstract: Context aware computing systems and methods are described. In one described embodiment, devices and methods are provided that are context-aware (in one example-location-aware) in that they provide for the application and enforcement of various policies as a function of context. Specifically, various computing devices, through the described methodologies and structures, are able to automatically determine their context. Once context is determined, a collection of policies can be evaluated to provide a resultant set of policies that apply to the given context. The resultant set of policies are then enforced, typically via the device's operating system. Policy enforcement can involve promulgating new settings or state to applications that are executing on or off the device. Advantageously, the devices and methodologies can adapt the resultant set of policies as the device's context changes so that the policies can be dynamically determined and enforced automatically as the device's context changes. <IMAGE>
