Title: Jack receptacle for an optical connector
Inventor: ANDERSON JERRY MAX
IPC: G02B6/24
Filed: 1996-08-29
Abstract: A unipartite (one-piece) jack receptacle 40 for mounting in a panel 200 provides a compact structure for high density optical interconnections. The receptacle is molded from thermoplastic materiel into a generally rectangular shape and includes at least one cavity 460 surrounded by four sidewalls. The cavity includes one opening in its front end for receiving an optical connector 10 and another opening 422 in its back end for receiving a cylindrical alignment sleeve 440. Each opening extends into the cavity. One pair of panel-locking members (cantilevers) 410 is mounted on the top side 415 of the receptacle and another pair of cantilevers is mounted on its bottom side 416. Each cantilever includes a free-end portion that deflects into the cavity. The receptacle further includes a flange 412 on its back end that cooperates with a smooth tapered wall 411 on the free-end portion of the cantilever to capture a panel edge therebetween in a self-tightening fit. Molded into opposite sidewalls of each cavity are tab-retaining shoulders for interlocking with projections 121 on a latching tab 120 of the optical connector. A pair of identical jack receptacles 40 are joined together, back to back, to form an adapter 400. Cylindrical pins 423 and holes 421 are located on the back surface 420 of each receptacle to facilitate assembly. The pins haveslightly larger diameters than the holes so that the receptacles can be press-fit together without the use of adhesives or other bonding techniques.

Patent CA-2193990-A1 (CA)
Title: Rotary electromagnetic actuator
Inventor: ROBERTS DAFYDD
IPC: H01F7/14
Filed: 1995-06-19
Abstract: A rotary electromagnetic actuator comprises a rotatable shaft carrying a rotor which is rotatable relative to a stator. A magnetic circuit is set up which comprises the stator and the rotor, the reluctance of the magnetic circuit being dependent on the relative rotational orientation of the rotor and stator and decreasing in a particular direction of rotation such that the reluctance is a minimum at an equilibrium position to which the rotor is therefore biased. The rotor is selectively impelled to advance away from the equilibrium position, subsequently again becoming part of a magnetic circuit, the reluctance of which decreases in the direction of rotation to a minimum at an equilibrium position to which the rotor becomes biased. The actuator provides unidirectional rotation for successive actuations at substantially uniform torque and is suitable for use in actuating rotary devices such as rotary valves.

Title: Label inserting method and apparatus
Inventor: DOBLER WALTER
IPC: B29C45/14
Filed: 1995-06-27
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for providing at least one insertion label on a tool of a machine, the insertion label being insertable into a mold half of a tool of a plastics processing machine, in particular injection molding machine or deep-drawing machine. In this method insertion labels are punched out of label web material by means of a punching device consisting essentially of a punching plate and a cutting tool. The insertion labels are transferred by a carrier, which belongs to the punching device, to the tool of the machine and are discharged for insertion thereinto. So far a great problem has consisted in performing such a transfer in such a manner that the insertion label is positioned in a sufficiently precise manner without creases. This problem is overcome in that after the punching operation the insertion labels are held by the punching plate which is movable substantially in a direction transverse to the punching direction and formed as a carrier, and are transferred to the tool of the machine. Furthermore, the present invention relates to an apparatus for performing the method.

Title: A fraud control system for processing calls with an automatic number identification failure
Inventor: DUNN THOMAS A
IPC: H04Q3/72
Filed: 1997-03-18
Abstract: A system for preventing fraudulent calling activity in a telecommunications network when an Automatic Number Identification failure (ANIF) occurs at a switch attempting to process a call within the network. When an ANIFoccurs, an operator obtains information equivalent to an Automatic Number Identification (ANI) from the calling party and the system determines whether the call is of a type that would not have been restricted had the ANIF not occurred. If the call would not otherwise have been restricted had the ANIF not occurred, the system automatically assigns a blanket billing restriction to the call which only allows specific call types (such as what are deemed the safer alternate billing methods of collect or credit card) and blocks other restricted call types.

Abstract: A computer implemented electronic game includes a wheel of fortune game with odds of a jackpot greatly in excess of the number of indicia on a simulated wheel. In one embodiment, a virtual mapping allows a bonus indicium of the wheel to be given a 1:M chance of being landed on, even though the bonus position is one of N positions on the simulated wheel. A random number L is chosen between 1 and M and this number is mapped to a number between 1 and N. The display of the wheel if controlled to simulate stopping of the wheel at the 1th indicium where L is mapped to 1. In one embodiment, by using successive wheel spins, the odds of moving to the next round are multiplied to achieve an overall odds of winning a jackpot. In one embodiment there is a 1:50 chance of entering a bonus screen from a main slot machine/phrase completion screen, a 1:20 chance of landing on a bonus position in a first wheel spin, a 1:40 chance of landing on a bonus position for a second wheel spin and a 1:200 chance of landing on a bonus position for a last wheel spin to provide an overall odds of a jackpot of 1:8 million.
