Title: Actuating mechanism for pressurized fluid containers and nozzle assembly
Inventor: REGAN RICHARD B
IPC: B65D83/44
Filed: 1989-10-02
Abstract: This invention comprises an activating means (1) for releasing fluid from a pressurized container (10) and a nozzle means (8) for directing the fluid therethrough to a desired location. The activating means (1) comprises a lever (7) which transmits an applied force to a flange (30) which exerts a downward force to the top of a spout (22) in a valve assembly (6) used to release the contents of a pressurized container (10). When force is applied to the lever (7), the flange (30) rotates about a fulcrum A located at a higher elevation than the point at which the flange (30) contacts the spout (22). This results in a trigger mechanism (7) with a high degree of leverage. The nozzle means (8) contains a first joint for rotating a first barrel (41) of the nozzle 360 DEG  around a first axis defined by the first barrel (41) of the nozzle and a second joint for rotating a second barrel (65) of the nozzle at least 180 DEG  around an axis perpendicular to the first axis. This combination results in a nozzle (8) that can point in virtually any direction without the necessity of moving the source of the fluid directed through the nozzle (8).

Title: Database management systems
Inventor: GAWNE-CAIN ADAM
IPC: G06F12/00
Filed: 2000-11-21
Granted: 2004-10-20
Abstract: A database management system is adapted to hold permanent records of the states of a database both before and after database-modifying transactions so as to allow all previous states of the database to be directly accessed, without requiring storage of large amounts of redundant information. To this end the system relates parent data items (such as America, Spain; S*) in the record of each database state to dependent data items (such as Africa, Canada, France; France, Turkey) in the record of the same database state. Additionally the system relates a root data item (such as England; E*) in the record of each database state to the other data items in that record. Such relationships allow the state of the database after a database-modifying transaction to be determined by relating the root data item (E*) corresponding to that database state to both data items (S*, Turkey) in the record of that database state and data items (America, Africa, Canada, France) in the record of the state of the database before the data-modifying transaction.

Title: System and method of managing supplementary features in the presence of a proxy switch in a mobile communications network
Inventor: NAQVI SHAMIM A
IPC: H04W92/12
Filed: 2001-11-21
Granted: 2004-02-11
Abstract: A proxy switch, communication methods, and communication logic for use in a mobile network are described. A proxy switch is deployed between a base station subsystem and a mobile station center. It receives signaling messages and either retransmits them, blocks them, converts them, or siphons them to an alternative network. Besides providing an ability to offload offload mobile traffic it provides a platform for new communication services. The proxy switch includes signaling message handling logic that receives signaling messages from the MSC and BS in accordance with a mobile signaling protocol. State logic maintains state information of call sessions and mobile stations (MSs) used within the mobile communications network. Message interception logic detects whether a signaling message from an MSC is a new call originating message and if an MS addressed in such a new call originating message is involved in a call. The message interception logic also prevents the new call originating message from being forwarded to the BS servicing the addressed MS. Message conversion logic converts the new call originating message to a feature notification message, and message transmission logic issues the feature notification message to the BS servicing the addressed MS.

Granted: 2006-04-12
Abstract: An apparatus and method of generating downlink power information for a multi-sector base transceiver site in which power can be shared between existing amplifiers includes a first step of gathering (S 10 ) downlink power information for each sector. When the total power required by the sectors is less than the total power available from the base transceiver site, a next step includes modifying (S 20 ) the information to pre-empt traffic loading such that a more heavily loaded sector will be disproportionately allocated more power than a less heavily loaded sector. A next step includes forwarding (S 30 , S 40 ) the information to controllers of the base transceiver site. A next step includes determining a loading of each sector using thresholds to determine an overload in sectors depending on the information, wherein the power to each sector is adjusted disproportional to the degree with which the sector is loaded.

Filed: 1979-11-28
Granted: 1982-11-10
Abstract: A shifting apparatus for a transmission of a vehicle comprising a shift lever operable left and right for travel to selection positions and front and rear for shifting gears, the shift lever being shiftable in one of the selection positions between a forward gear position and a reverse gear position. A projection is movable with the shift lever vertically in the selection operation and horizontally in the shift operation. A pivotable lock member is positioned in the vertical path of travel of the projection and the lock member and projection are provided with cam surfaces such that the lock member is pivoted, when the projection is moved, from a neutral position to an inoperative position. The lock member is held in its neutral position by a spring and in the inoperative position the shift lever is movable to the forward gear position and to the reverse gear position. When the projection is moved to the selection position, the cam surfaces are cooperatively engaged to pivotably move the lock member to its inoperative position and if the shift lever should then be moved to the forward gear position, the lock member is then pivotably moved by the spring to its neutral position at which any movement of the shift lever to the reverse gear position will cause the projection to engage a claw on the lock member. A stop member is fixed in the path of travel of the lock member to prevent pivotal movement of the lock member in this position and thereby prevent travel of the shift lever to the reverse gear position.

Title: Pulse circuits
Inventor: RICHARDSON ROBERT
IPC: H03K3/53
Filed: 1981-08-08
Granted: 1984-12-19
Abstract: A pulse circuit forms part of a radar transmitter in which a pulse forming network is used to generate a high current pulse at relatively low voltage and to feed it via a transformer to a magnetron which operates at typically 30 kV. A number of pulse forming networks are connected in parallel and are discharged by respective thyristors. The outputs of the pulse forming networks are combined so as to provide a low voltage pulse (of the order of 600 volts) having sufficient power to drive a radar transmitter. The pulse forming networks must each be capable of handling very large currents and must have characteristics which are identical to each other. To enable these requirements to be met, each pulse forming network includes an inductor which is formed as a coiled thin conductive layer lying on the surface of an electrically insulating board. It is formed by printed circuit board techniques and a mirror image coil is formed on both sides of a double sided printed circuit board. All pulse forming networks are connected via a common double sided printed circuit board to the primary winding of a pulse transformer.
