Title: Dishwasher float mounting bracket with retainer cover
Inventor: SIMMONS MICHAEL C
IPC: H01H35/18
Filed: 2004-05-18
Abstract: A float mounting plate is provided for a dishwasher to limit the level of water in the dishwasher tub. The float has a stem extending downwardly through a stand pipe in the bottom of the tub and into a switch bracket which houses the water level control switch. A tab is provided on the switch bracket which is adapted to extend around the float stem, thereby slidably retaining the retainer ring of the stem for engagement and disengagement with the switch, and limiting lateral or horizontal movement of the stem. In one embodiment, the tab is integrally formed with the bracket, with a living hinge allowing the tab to pivot between open and closed positions. In a second embodiment, the tab snap fits onto the bracket to capture the float stem.

Patent CA-2479627-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MAYER YARON
IPC: G06Q30/02
Filed: 2004-09-14
Abstract: Google has recently made available at http://news.google.com an automat ed "newspaper", which searches continuously about 4,500 news sources, and lets users view automatically generated headlines in a few general areas or lets users search for news by keywords. The automatic determination of which news items or news stories are most important is done by 3 main criteria: In how many sources the news item appeared, how important are the news sources in which it appeared, and how close it is to the top in each of these news sources. However, many problems still remain, such as for example: a. The choice of a single main news source and a single image for each item seems arbitrary to the user and limits the user, b. If the use r clicks on the "related items" link for that item the user always gets a linear list of typically hundreds or even more than a thousand links to related news items, sorted either by relevance or by time, however, the new list is now without any images and without any clustering, so that many times news stories that are about the same even t or even identical, may appear at different positions in the list of related links, a nd various other news items may appear between them and are typically also dispersed in various places. This makes it vary hard for the user to takeadvantage efficiently of the list of related items. The present invention solves the above problem by creating recursive clustering, so that preferably at any level in the tree the user can preferably either choose a specific news item from the cluster or from the shown sub-clusters or continue in the tree. Another improvement is that searching the Meta News by keywords can generate an automatic newspaper in a way similar to the origina l automatically generated newspaper. Many additional improvements to the conce pt of automated newspapers and/or news MetaSearch are also shown. Other improvemen ts are suggested for improved shareware MetaSearch, improved Web pages search, and other types of searches.

Title: Overhead reduction in a communications system
Inventor: NELSON GEORGE R JR
IPC: H04J3/00
Filed: 2003-01-22
Abstract: Parallel demodulators are provided in field units (15-1~15-h). Forward (40) and reverse (50) channel allocation information may be broadcast to the field units (15-1~15-h) in the same epoch as traffic data but on first and second channels, such as paging and traffic channels. This assures that all field units (15-1~15-h) are able to receive forward (40) and reverse (50) channel allocation information every epoch. By having parallel demodulators in the field unit (15-1~15-h), switching between the first and second channels is avoided and channel allocation information is not lost.

Abstract: De manière à réduire le temps d'établissement d'appel sans pour autant dégrader le service de l'appelant, un réseau d'accès radio (RAN) (103) envoie un message d'attribution de canal dans une intervalle de temps de téléappel contrôlée par une unité cible (113). Cette unité cible répond à cette page d'attribution de canal en indiquant sa disponibilité et sa situation à l'intérieur d'une zone de couverture d'un réseau d'accès radio. Ce réseau d'accès radio indique alors la disponibilité d'une unité cible par rapport à l'unité d'appel (120) qui a demandé le service. Dans ce sens, l'appelant peut donner suite au service de communication, pendant que la cible finit l'établissement de communication.

Abstract: Système d'allumage à une bobine inductive haute énergie par bougie, qui fonctionne à une tension Vc plus élevée que la tension de la batterie Vb grâce à un convertisseur de puissance élévateur de tension (1) utilisant des bobines haute énergie à faible inductance Ti. Ces bobines comportent également une amélioration supplémentaire grâce à une encapsulation partielle des bobines et à l'utilisation d'aimants de polarisation (120) dans les entrefers larges à l'intérieur du noyau, ce qui permet d'augmenter la densité d'énergie des bobines. Les bobines sont connectées aux bougies de type capacitif, avec des extrémités d'allumage à disque de type halo, au moyen d'un fil de suppression amélioré (78), le fonctionnement et le contrôle du système étant assurés par un micro-controller (8) qui génère et contrôle le temps de chargement des bobines Tch, ainsi qu'au séquençage de l'allumage des bougies et d'autres fonctionnalités de contrôle, y compris la recherche du cylindre d'allumage par le déclenchement simultané de l'allumage et la détection effectuée pendant le démarrage du moteur, ce qui permet de construire un système d'allumage polyvalent et étroitement contrôlé, capable de produire des étincelles d'allumage à couplage de flux d'énergie élevée au moyen d'un nombre plus limité de pièces, qui sont de dimensions plus réduites.

Abstract: A method of automatically monitoring text-based communications of one or more chat room or instant messaging participants to determine if a monitoring event has occurred. On-line communications (210) are continually monitored and input to a number of pattern recognizing modules (230), preferably working in parallel. Using known pattern-recognition techniques, each pattern recognizing module can analyze an aspect of the communications by implementing certain algorithms and, as appropriate, set, increase or decrease the values of state variables descriptive of defined attributes of the online communications. Such state variables can reflect, for example, emotional levels, participant turnover frequencies, use of suspicious word patterns, and other metrics regarding the on-line communications. State variables out put form the various pattern recognizing modules can be simultaneously input to a decision module (240) which can launch one or more decision algorithms. The decision module can then output one or more predetermined actions (280) as determined by the decision algorithms.
