Title: Safety limiter for powered vehicles
Inventor: LAFONT DON
IPC: F02P5/15
Filed: 2000-01-24
Abstract: A vehicle control unit is disclosed which can be coupled between a tachometer sensor and an electronic ignition system on a vehicle. The unit is also coupled to a speedometer sensor to measure the vehicle's speed. The vehicle control unit limits the vehicle speed by modifying the tachometer signal from the tachometer sensor and providing the modified tachometer signal to the ignition system. The tachometer signal is a pulse train which is used by the electronic ignition system to determine ignition timing. The vehicle control unit limits both ground speed and engine speed by suppressing pulses from the original tachometer signal to prevent the combustion of fuel and thereby reduce engine power when the ground or engine speeds exceed predetermined limits. The vehicle control unit is microcontroller-based and preferably includes a logging function and an acceleration sensor. The microcontroller is coupled to the acceleration sensor to detect the peak accelerations experienced by the vehicle. The microcontroller stores peak accelerations above a predetermined limit, along with excessive ground and engine speeds, as part of a fault record a nonvolatile memory. The records can be examined by management personnel to identify reckless vehicle operators. Corrective action can then be taken to protect personnel and equipment. A handheld programming unit is also disclosed herein for programming the predetermined limits and for retrieving fault records. The programming unit can display and summarize fault records, and can be used to transport the fault information to a central computer system for archiving and more extensive analysis.

Title: A system to provide lifeline ip telephony service on cable access networks
Inventor: BHAGAVATH VIJAY K
IPC: H04B17/40
Filed: 2000-09-25
Abstract: A cable access network includes a cable trunk amplifier connected over a coaxial cable to A plurality of cable data modems to provide backup power to the cable modem during power outages experienced by either the trunk amplifier or the modems, thereby insuring uninterruptible IP telephone service. The trunk amplifier applies a DC voltage across the conductors of the coaxial cable. An AC/DC power converter and regulator and also a backup battery are sources of power for the DC voltage applied to the coaxial cable. A power outage sensor selectively connects either the AC/DC power converter and regulator or, alternately, the backup battery to the cable, depending on whether there is an outage sensed at the trunk amplifier. Each cable data modem connected to the trunk amplifier is partitioned into IP voice circuits and other circuits not contributing to the IP voice function. The other circuits include, for example, video/audio receiver circuits and IP data transceiver circuits. The IP voice circuits are connected to the subscriber's telephone hand set. The cable data modem applies a DC voltage to the IP voice circuits and the subscriber's telephone hand set. An AC/DC power converter and regulator in the modem and also the DC voltage from the coaxial cable are sources of power for the DC voltage applied to the IP voice circuits. A power outage sensor selectively connects the IP voice circuits to either the AC/DC power converter and regulator in the modem or, alternately, the DC voltage from the coaxial cable, depending on whether there is an outage sensed at the cable data modem. The other circuits such as the video/audio receiver circuits and IP data transceiver circuits are powered only by the AC/DC power converter and regulator in the cable data modem. In this manner, if there is a general power outage affecting both the trunk amplifier and many of the cable data modems connected to it, the power to be supplied by the backup battery at the trunk amplifier is only required to power the IP voice circuits and the subscriber's telephone hand set.

Abstract: A connector (10), for removably securing a mattress (18) to a mattress supporting bed frame (22), that is provided a length that is sufficient to allow one to pull the mattress (18) from a first position in which it is fully supported on the supporting frame (22), to a second position in which it is supported on an edge of the frame (22) and hangs out beyond the edge of the supporting frame (22). The connector (10) is sufficiently short to retain the mattress (18) in the second position and not allow the mattress (18) to fall off the supporting frame (22). The connector (10) allows a person placing sheets on the mattress (18) to pull the mattress (18) toward oneself into the second position and thereby more easily reach the far edge of the mattress (18) when placing sheets on it, and can then put the mattress (18) back into the first position when the sheets are in place.

Title: Method and system for limiting non-educational software usage based on the usage of educational software
Inventor: MOONEY PHILIP D
IPC: G06F21/22
Filed: 2000-10-17
Abstract: An application usage time limiter monitors certain pre-configured application programs when opened or otherwise executed on a computer (e.g. a PC). The application usage time limiter is itself a program running either as a front end to various selected programs for monitoring, or as a separate program running in a time-sharing operating system environment. Pre--configurable options in a usage limiter configuration file or other memory area are set to limit real time ranges that particular application programs on a particular computer can be started and run, and a limit to a length of time that a specific program (or category of programs) can be operated given a number of available credits for a current user. The user is given credits at a pre--configured rate per hour of usage of an application program designated in the usage limiter configuration file as being beneficial, and the user gives back (or looses) credits at a pre-configured rate per hour of usage for use of programs designated as non-beneficial. Preferably, continued usage of beneficial programs is detected, e.g., by keystrokes. Application programs selected for monitoring in the usage limiter configuration file can be identified on an application by application basis, as a specific category of applications identifiable when the particular application is started, or as being stored in a specific directory (e.g., folder in a WINDOWS.TM. operating system). A credit--giving (i.e., beneficial program) must be run by a particular user to earn credits before a credit-taking (i.e., non-beneficial program) can be run by that user. Up front credits may be provided to a particular user in a user log.
