Abstract: Disclosed is the apparatus for stabilizing a propane tank while being transported. This apparatus would be manufactured from plastic that would male this device fairly durable and long lasting. Once the base of the propane tank is placed into the tank stabilizer, the propane tank and the base of the tank will travel in a relatively vertical position, due to gravity. The apparatus also has a base which is larger the largest diameter of the propane tank and accordingly the tank becomes more stable when positioned in the apparatus. The rubber feet at the bottom of this device ensure that whether the vehicle used for transporting has carpeting or has a metal base, it will secure the tank and make it much more stable while transporting. While a 20 lb. propane gas tank is common with barbeques for home use, it will be appreciated the invention is not limited solely to these tanks.

Title: Method to control the packet switching traffic in digital cellular communication systems
Inventor: MOTOLESE VALERIA
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2002-06-19
Abstract: It is disclosed a method to control the traffic generated by packet switched services in digital cellular communication networks. The method, enabled by the operator or by radio resource manager request, exploits network controlled cell reselection procedure and is based on the evaluation of the level of occupation of radio resources and, for every GPRS mobile, on the evaluation of the signal strength received both from the serving cell and from the cells adjacent to the serving one. Suitable cells towards which to move the GPRS  mobiles are searched by the procedure. GPRS mobiles are then moved towards a candidate target cell through network controlled cell reselection if the cell supports packet switched service and has an occupation level of radio resources lower than a threshold parameter set by the operator on a cell basis.
