Abstract: A wireless communication system has a queue information search unit
for searching a queue-status information provided in a packet unit, a
communication priority decision unit for deciding communication priority of
external devices based on the queue-status information, giving a higher
priority to the external device having a greater number of packets in queues, a
communication initiation unit for initiating a communication with the external
devices according to the communication priority, a counter for counting the
number of times that the communication is initiated for each of the external
devices, and a comparator for comparing a counter value of a first external
device that corresponds to a transmitted data with a counter value of a second
external device that has a maximum counter value. Accordingly, when the
wireless communication device transmits and receives data with respect to the
plural wireless communication devices, both high throughput and high fairness
can be guaranteed.

Abstract: The pulling rod (24) has circular curvature. It pivots about an axis (23) at the center of its own curvature. This axis is at right angles to the filling tube axis (2a) and is located on the sealing unit (11).  The pulling rod (24) is semi-circular and pivots through 180degrees. Its axis (23) is offset to one side, relative to the filling tube axis.
