Title: Apparatus with cantilevered radial arms for releasably engaging a compact disc
Inventor: PIJANOWSKI STEFAN ALEXANDER
IPC: G11B33/04
Filed: 1995-11-03
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB95/02581 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 30, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 30, 1997 PCT Filed Nov. 3, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/14636 PCT Pub. Date May 17, 1996An apparatus for holding a compact disk has a base portion and resilient inwardly extending radial arms, cantilevered from the base portion; the inner ends of the arms form a button-like member receivable in the central hole of the disk so that pressure applied to any one or more of the inner ends of the arms flexes each of the arms toward the base portion to move the inner ends of the arms toward each other sufficiently to release the button-like member from the disk. Lips on the button-like member retain the disk by engaging on the outer surface of the disk. Resilient ejection means may be provided to urge the compact disk out of engagement with the button-like member, and disk support means may be on the base portion to support the disk at positions away from the central hole of the disk. The apparatus may be formed as a one-piece plastics molding as a tray for insertion in a box or as part of a wall of a video style library box.

Title: Broadband telecommunications system
Inventor: CHRISTIE JOSEPH M
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1997-11-10
Abstract: A telecommunication method is disclosed for integrating the capabilities of broadband components with the capabilities of conventional circuit switches. A signalling processor (140) receives and processes a first telecommunications signalling message (160) for the call to provide control and signalling messages (162, 163, 164, 165, 166) that identify the selection and transfer the control messages to the ATM internetworking multiplexers (110, 112, 114) that accepted the access connection for the call. The multiplexers (110, 112, 114) convert user information from the access connection into ATM cells for transmission over the virtual connection in accord with the control messages (162-166). An ATM cross connect system (120) operationally connected to the multiplexers (110, 112, 114) routes the ATM cells based on the virtual connection identified in the ATM cells. The narrowband switches (130, 132) provides the service to call based on the telecommunication-signalling message.
