Patent GB-0010706-D0 (GB)
Title: Method of performing online switching of software in a communication system
IPC: G06F9/445
Filed: 2000-05-04
Abstract: The invention provides a method of performing online switching of software from executing a first version of operating software to executing a second version of operating software in a communication system (100). The system (100) incorporates connection gateways (130, 200) controllable using the software for routing and processing communication traffic flowing between subscribers connected to the system (100) in response to subscriber demand. The method includes the steps of: providing the system (100) with its gateways executing the first version of the software; receiving the second version of software at the gateways; receiving an instruction at the gateways to perform an online switch of software; storing persistent data describing at least routing connections established through the gateways; transferring control of the gateways from the first version of software to Mini Media Handler (MMH) software executing in the gateways and operable to maintain established routing connections through the gateways; executing the second version of software concurrently with the MMH software to enabling the second version to recover the persistent data and configure itself in response thereto; and passing control of the gateways from the MMH software to the second version of software. The invention provides the advantage that the gateways can be switched from executing the first version of software to executing the second version of software without causing an interruption of communication traffic conveyed through the gateways.

Title: Machine for making paper booklets
IPC: B65H35/06
Filed: 1987-12-09
Abstract: In a machine for making paper booklets from a multiplicity of paper strips on bobbins that are converged into a continuously advancing strand a reciprocating cutting station (25) defined by leading and trailing plates (27, 28) performs the operations of firstly clamping the strand while the station (25) moves with the strand and secondly of cutting off booklet lengths of paper by means of a knife (156). Cut booklets are ejected into a discharge chute (32) by ejection means (200) including an ejector bar (211) terminating a thrust plate (214). According to the invention the ejection means (200) is separated from the cutting station (25) and is fixedly located opposite to the chute (32). Connection between the cutting station (25) and the ejection means (200) is established by a common rotating hexagonal shaft (76) which is operably connected to clamping and cutting mechanisms of the station (25) and which carries a pair of cams (207, 208) that actuate the ejector (211) through a parallelogram linkage. By this means the motion of the ejector (211) can be gradual rather than abrupt, the machine is easier to set up, and the ejector thrust plate (214) can span substantially the full width of chute (32) so that the likelihood of cut booklets becoming misplaced is reduced.
Patent GB-8816774-D0 (GB)
Title: Power supplies
IPC: H02M3/155
Filed: 1988-07-14
Abstract: A rectifier circuit having a rectifier (D4) allowing current to flow in a forward direction to an output (VOUT). A saturable inductor (L3) in series with the rectifier (D4) blocks reverse recovery rectifier current and directs it to an inductor (L4), the energy stored in that inductor re-setting the saturable inductor (L3) to allow subsequent flow of current in the forward direction to the rectifier (D4). A capacitor (C2) absorbs surplus energy from the inductor (L4) and a rectifier (D5) guides that surplus energy to the output (VOUT). This rectifier circuit is particularly useful as part of a convertor where an electronic switch repeatedly switches current through an inductor (L1) and the energy from the inductor (L1) is delivered to the output (VOUT) via the rectifier circuit.
