Patent CA-2250404-C (CA)
Inventor: WICEN JAN
IPC: F15B15/10
Filed: 1997-03-26
Granted: 2007-06-12
Abstract: The invention relates to a vacuum hoisting device of the kind having a vertically suspended lifting tube (4), which is extensible and contractible in dependence on the air pressure in the lifting tube, and which at its lower part is provided with a suction device (6) in the shape of one or more suction cups. Up to now a valve at the suction device is used for manoeuvering the suction device, which valve when closed brings a vacuum source (7, 20) to work with a constant suction capacity to decrease the pressure in the lifting tube such that an object (32) to be lifted is attached by the suction after which the lifting tube is contracted such that the object is lifted. To limit the lifting height and to lower and release the object it has been necessary to partially open the valve and permit a restricted inlet of air and at last completely open the valve resulting in a large comsumption of air. According to the invention there is instead a valve (14, 23) arranged to control the suction capacity of the vacuum source in direct dependence of the desired air pressure in the lifting tube (4).

Title: A method of manufacturing a peripherally encapsulating unit
Inventor: KAPER LLOYD
IPC: B29C63/00
Filed: 1998-11-30
Granted: 2004-07-13
Abstract: A peripherally encapsulated unit is manufactured by molding a peripheral encapsulation of a predetermined internal peripheral contour and internal peripheral size from hot polymeric material in a mold. The mold is opened and a member is positioned in internal relationship to the hot molded peripheral encapsulation.  Thereafter, the hot molded peripheral encapsulation shrinks as it cools to reduce its internal peripheral size thereby unitizing the peripheral encapsulation with a peripheral edge portion of the member to form a peripherally encapsulated unit, such as a cook top, range door, "touch" control panel, or the like.

Title: Method, switching means and telecommunication system for performing data communications between subscriber stations
Inventor: SIEPPI JUKKA
IPC: H04Q7/30
Filed: 1998-12-16
Granted: 2007-02-13
Abstract: A switching means (BSC/MSG/VLR) of a mobile radio communication network (PLMN) contains a subscriber type determining means (SSTDM) which determines on the basis of call set-up messages whether in particular the second subscriber station (WS) of an IP-network (INTRANET) is capable of performing an audio data encoding/decoding, in particular a GSM speech encoding/decoding. The subscriber station type determining means (SSTDM) switches off an audio data encoding/decoding means (CODEC) in a base station controller (BSC) if the second subscriber station (WS) is capable of performing the speech encoding/decoding. Thus, a deterioration of the speech quality due to performing unnecessary audio data encoding/decoding is avoided and the bandwidth in the PLMN/data network can be utilized more efficiently.
