Inventor: REYNOLDS CHRISTOPHER
IPC: G09B19/00
Filed: 1992-02-21
Abstract: Abstract An object (10) capable of having its shape altered has a first cloth-like material  (12)  formed in a first predetermined shape,  an aperture  (14)  formed in  the  first  material  (12)  so  that  an  internal hollow of  the first  shape can be accessed and a second pliable material  (24) positioned within the internal  hollow  and  formed  to  assume  a  second predetermined shape.   The second material  (24)  is connected to the first material (12) at the internal hollow  so  that  the  second  material (24)  can  be withdrawn  from  the  internal  hollow  through  the aperture (14).  In this formation, the aperture (14) is common  to both the first  (12)  and second  (24) materials.   By extracting the second material (24) from the aperture (14), the first material (12) can be inserted or pushed through the aperture (14) into the  internal  hollow,  where  eventually,  the  first material  (12)  and  shape  are  completely  contained within the  internal hollow and  surrounded by the second material (24).  Therefore, the first material (12) and its shape become undetectable as the second material (24) and shape are exposed.   The user can manipulate the first (12) and second (24) materials indefinitely to continually change the shape of the object (10).

Abstract: A telecommunications system having 1:n group facility protection is disclosed.  Two-cross-connects are provided, each organized in a distributed fashion, and which have a group  of  member ports  bidirectionally  coupled  to  one another in corresponding fashion via a plurality of paths, such as of the DS-3 data frame type.  Each of the cross-connects also include a bidirectional protection port, coupled to the protection port of the other cross-connect by way of a protection path, also preferably of the DS-3 type;  the  protection  port  for  each  cross-connect  is assigned to the member port group, and is implemented to be managed by the same distributed interface processing unit as the protected member port group.   The cross-connects monitor their member input ports for received facility errors, such as signal failures or excessive failure rates, and request a third-stage bridge from its mate cross-connect in the event of such error. Upon receipt of a good signal at the protection input port, the requesting cross-connect  effects  a  first  stage  switch,  so  that  the previously failing facility is received over the protection path.   Communication of request and acknowledge signals over the protection path is preferably by way of the C-bit and X-bit channels, for DS-3 paths.  The switch preferably reverts to the normal condition responsive to the facility becoming valid for a timeout period at the original member port.
