Patent EP-1333888-A1 (EP)
Title: Fire protection unit with glass vessel sensors
Inventor: KRETZSCHMAR AXEL
IPC: A62C37/14
Filed: 2001-11-05
Abstract: The invention relates to a fire protection unit with glass vessel sensors, for example for sprinkler units, which open the extinguishing agent releasing openings in the case of fire and which comprise a glass vessel, filled with fluid and retained by a housing, which may be broken by a control unit by means of a remote electrical activator. The aim of the invention is to achieve an economical fire protection unit with the high safety standards of extinguisher units controlled by fire alarm units, but without the complexity thereof. In particular, a rapid detection and localisation of the fire should be possible and also the immediate opening of the extinguishing agent release openings necessary for limiting or eliminating the fire. The maintenance requirement should be as limited as for sprinkler units. Said aim is achieved, whereby the electrical remote actuator is embodied as sensor for recording the state of the glass vessel (1). Conventional glass vessel sensors thus become sensors which can be interrogated and sprinklers become intelligent fire alarms.

Abstract: By linking together mobile telephony systems having small message service capacity and payment clearance systems such as those operated by banks and credit card companies, substantial facilitation of electronic payments may be achieved. Existing security systems designed to protect the mobile telephony system, for example SIM cards and optional encryption provide a base level of transaction security which may be enhanced by suitable programming to require the use of a PIN to validate a transaction. By linking such systems with e.g. ATMs, the usefulness of a mobile telephone, where each assigned telephone number essentially functions as a player identity number (or, in certain enhancements, as an account number), substantial transaction economies can be achieved without compromising security, with excellent audit trail features and with automatically generated confirmations and acknowledgements.

Abstract: Provided are a wireless data communication apparatus and a method using
a multicarrier, and a transmission frame format therefor. Through wireless data
communication method, stations can transmit and receive burst data to and from a
net access group switching center in wireless using a multicarrier. The method
includes the steps of: (a) allocating a sub-carrier channel set to one of the stations
that requests allocation of the sub-carrier channel set consisting of sub-carriers of
first predetermined number out of a plurality of sub-carriers at a predetermined point
of time; (b) activating the sub-carrier channel set allocated to the station which
desires to transmit the data; and (c) checking the activation of the sub-carrier
channel set, detecting a station that requests the allocation of resources based on
the checked results, and allocating resources of second predetermined numbers to
the detected station. Therefore, it is possible to prevent contention of a plurality of
stations for request of data transmission to the net access group switching center,
thereby enabling a stable request for resources. Further, the efficiency of the use of
resources can be maximized.
