Patent CA-2642163-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DAYTON RODERICK M
IPC: B62D35/00
Filed: 2008-11-12
Abstract: An apparatus is provided for reducing aerodynamic drag experienced by an over-the-road vehicle while underway. A frame assembly including a fastening fixture couples the apparatus to the vehicle, and a first airfoil including a first outward air deflecting surface deflects a portion of the airflow directed toward a first tire laterally outward toward an externally exposed side of the first tire. A second airfoil including a second outward air deflecting surface deflects a portion of the airflow directed toward a second tire laterally outward toward an externally exposed side of the second tire. The first and second airfoils are spaced laterally apart from each other when coupled to the vehicle by the frame assembly to define an aperture between the first and second airfoils through which at least a portion of the airflow directed toward the axle assembly is to pass while the vehicle is underway.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des procédés et un appareil pour communiquer entre un terminal d'accès (AT) et un dispositif distant via un point d'accès (AP). Pour communiquer via la liaison aérienne, entre un point d'accès et un terminal d'accès, une adresse courte correspondant au dispositif distant est utilisée pour diriger les paquets à destination et en provenance du dispositif distant. Cela permet d'économiser les ressources de la liaison aérienne. Toutefois, une adresse plus longue, par exemple une adresse IP entière correspondant au dispositif distant, est utilisée pour communiquer entre le point d'accès et le dispositif distant. Le terminal d'accès effectue la conversion entre les adresses longue et courte sous la forme d'informations, par exemple des paquets sont communiqués entre le dispositif distant et le terminal d'accès. L'adresse longue peut être, par exemple, une adresse IP correspondant au dispositif distant utilisée pour diriger les paquets via un tunnel de couche 2 entre le dispositif distant et le point d'accès. Dans certains modes de réalisation, le dispositif distant est un point d'accès distant.
