Patent EP-0664105-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NYHOLM KUESTAA
IPC: A61C1/05
Filed: 1995-01-11
Abstract: The invention concerns methods and systems of control in a dental-treatment instrument, which comprises a turbine which is operated by means of the pressure (p) of a drive medium, such as compressed air, and which rotates the tool (16) of the dental-treatment instrument (10). In a first embodiment of the invention, the pressure (p) of the drive medium is controlled down under control with a retarded profile (p(t)) so as to prevent the sucking-back that arises because of continuation of the rotation of the turbine rotor (15) in the instrument (10) in connection with the switching-off of the pressure (p) of the drive medium. In a second embodiment of the invention, for the purpose stated above, the return line (18) of the drive medium is closed substantially at the point of time of switching-off of the pressure (p) of the drive medium.

Abstract: A coaxial cable end connector (10) including a tubular post (26) having a first flange (28) at a front end thereof and a port fastener (34) rotatably supported on the front end of the post (26), the fastener (34) having a second flange (38) adapted to coact in mechanical interengagement with the first flange (28). The first and second flanges (28, 38) establish a non planar interface of interengagement which acts as a signal seal in response to being interengaged. The first flange (28) includes a surface indentation (52) which coacts with a surface protuberance (56) of the second flange (38) in response to the fastener (34) being connected to a signal port (12). In addition, an interference protuberance (72) associated with the fastener (34) coacts with an inclined surface (74) associated with the tubular body (40) to establish another non-planar interface of interengagement which acts as an additional signal seal. In a further embodiment, the port fastener (34) includes a coupling nut with an internally threaded surface (36) having an undersized thread portion proximate to the first and second flanges (28, 38), such that the enlarged thread creates a locking effect and enhances the signal seal as the port fastener (34) is threaded onto the signal port (12).

Abstract: To enable data transmission without transmitting packet's serial numbers, a transmit serial number is incremented by one at a transmit site each time a data packet is sent to a receive site, and a copy of the transmitted packet is stored in a transmit memory corresponding to the transmit serial number. The process is repeated so that a predetermined number of outstanding packets are transmitted. At the receive site, a receive serial number is incremented by one upon receipt of each packet and the packet is stored in a receive memory corresponding to the receive serial number. The receive site determines whether there is an error in the outstanding packets in the receive memory. If an error is found, the receive site sends a request packet containing the serial number of the packet in error to the transmit site. In response, the transmit site sends a copy of the corrupted packet to the receive site which, in response, replaces the packet in error with the received copy. If no packet in error is found in the receive memory, the receive site transmits an acknowledgment to the transmit site. On receiving it, the transmit site repeats the transmission of the next sequence of outstanding packets.

Abstract: A location code indicates the physical location of a computer station of interest on a computer network such as NetBIOS Network. When a user connects to the computer network, the user specifies a location code indicative of the physical location of the particular computer station on which the user is operating. The location codes are stored in name tables of the computer stations if those location codes are unique, i.e., not stored in the name tables of any other computer station on the computer network. To determine the physical location of a computer station of interest, an interrogation of the name table of the computer station of interest is performed using the hexadecimal address of the computer station of interest.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and arrangement for transfer between a cordless telecommunication system, preferably DECT, and a cellular mobile telecommunication system, preferably GSM. The cordless telecommunication system consists of a number of cells within a relatively small area, while the mobile telecommunication system consists of a number of cells within a relatively larger area which completely or partly overlaps the area of the cordless system. The system comprises at least one portable terminal with the capacity of communicating with both communication systems. According to the invention, a transfer zone is fixed by the cordless system and the terminal is monitored with regard to identity and position so that transfer parameters can be transmitted to the terminal when it is located in the transfer zone. The transfer is prepared by setting up a three-party connection between the terminal and the cordless system and between the terminal and the mobile system. The terminal disconnects the connection to the cordless system and transfer to the mobile system takes place. The invention reduces the transfer time between the different systems by transmitting transfer parameters to the portable terminal and setting up the preparatory three-party connection.
