Abstract: The doll has the peculiarity that the movement towards the right or towards the left of one of its arms carries with it the same movement of the head and also of the eyes.      Likewise, the movement upwards or downwards of the arm carries with it the movement upwards and downwards of the head. Both movements can be made in combination, whereby any object (dummy, feeding bottle or similar) held in the hand of the driven arm, is carried towards the upper-front part, in such a way that if it is a feeding bottle this one is applied to the mouth of the doll and a miction of the doll is produced. Such movements are achieved as a consequence that the driven arm and the head are assembled on the body of the doll, through both ball joints, existing a series of levers, axles and forks as means of transmission of the movements of a main lever associated to the ball joint of the arm, up to the ball joint itself of the head.

Title: Session cache and rule caching method for a dynamic filter
Inventor: LONDON THOMAS B
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 1998-01-12
Granted: 2002-07-02
Abstract: A cache for use with a network filter that receives, stores and ejects local rule bases dynamically.  The cache stores a rule that was derived from a rule base in the filter.  The cache rule is associated in the cache with a rule base indicator indicating from which rule base the cache rule was derived, and a rule base version number indicating the version of the rule base from which the cache  rule was derived.   When the filter receives  a packet, the cache is searched for a rule applicable to a received packet. If no such rule is found, the filter rule base is found, and an applicable rule is carried out and copied to the cache along with a rule base indicator and version  number.    If  a  cache  rule  is  found,  it  is implemented if its version number matches the version number of  the rule  base  from which it was  derived. Otherwise, the cache rule is deleted. The cache provides an efficient way of accurately implementing the rules of a dynamic rule base without having to search the entire rule base for each packet.

Abstract: An insect trap (400) using attractant light, comprising a source of insect attractant light and a housing (404) that can be mounted on a generally planar or flat mounting surface. The housing (404) and the source of light cooperate to form a bidirectional or a multidirectional (overlapping or non-overlapping) pattern of insect attractant light. The housing comprises one, two or more openings for the insect attractant light (401) that is reflected and radiated onto the flat mounting surface. The housing and the source of insect attractant light can cooperate to form a light pattern directed in a continuous display pattern that can surround the housing. The housing openings further facilitate the entry of flying insect pests into the trap. As the insects enter the trap, they are immobilized on an insect immobilization surface mounted within the trap. Cooperation between the direct radiant light, reflected light and the position of the housing and insect immobilization surface forms at least two (preferably non-overlapping) light displays that can substantially increase capture rates when compared to prior traps. The trap can also display a light pattern substantially surrounding the trap housing.

Abstract: A fire barrier (12) for use in dynamic voids to seal against the spread of fire. Flexible foil-backed insulation material (22) is supported by a woven metallic support screen (18) positioned in the void. As the surfaces (14, 16) defining the void undergo relative movement, the ability of the individual wire elements of the screen (18) to move in a scissor-like fashion relative to one another allows the screen to distort laterally without shearing, wrinkling, or buckling while the insulation material (22) floating thereon is effectively isolated from any shear forces. The foil backing (20, 24) allows the insulation (22) to freely shift relative to the support screen (18).

Abstract: A truck trailer body system has an elongated cargo-supporting bed with front and rear bulkheads and sliding nestable rigid enclosure sections, called canopies, which are movable between the bulkheads. The canopies are positionable for completely enclosing and protecting cargo from environmental damage during transportation or storage, and also for selectively providing largely unfettered access to the cargo for any purpose, such as inspection, loading, and unloading, as desired. The enclosure sections or canopies ride on roller mechanisms for movement along tracks extending along either side of the trailer bed over its entire length.  The individual canopy sections, when unlocked, slide relatively freely along the length of the tracks. Locking systems are provided to secure the canopies in a fixed position on the trailer so as to prevent unwanted movement, and to prevent them from decoupling from one another.

Title: Power converter control device and power converter thereof
Inventor: SONODA MICHIYOSHI
IPC: H02M1/00
Filed: 2000-04-27
Granted: 2004-09-28
Abstract: When the fact that an over-current is flowing in the semiconductor devices of power converter (6) is detected by Hall CT (11), abnormality detection unit (9) outputs an abnormality signal. If there is an abnormality signal from abnormality detection unit (9), gate breaking means (13) of gate driving unit (8) outputs a gate breaking signal to stop power converter (6). At the same time, the gate ON means maintains the gate signal of the semiconductor device that has become abnormal in the ON state and, after the current in the semiconductor device has become smaller than a specified value, the gate signal of the semiconductor device is rendered OFF by gate constriction device (12). By this means, the current flowing in the semiconductor device may be reduced prior to the gate breaking operation being performed.

Granted: 2005-08-09
Abstract: Improved error screening techniques for use in processing digital audio or other types of information received in a digital communication system. Control information associated with a given packet of the received information is identified and compared with a decoding requirement of the packet, in order to control the generation of an error indicator for the packet. More particularly, the error indicator may be generated in response to an inconsistency between the control information and the decoding requirement. For example, the control information may include an indication of packet length that can be compared to a number of bits required to decode the corresponding packet, with any inconsistency between the packet length indication and the number of required bits leading to the generation of an error flag for the packet. The invention is particularly well- suited for use in the processing of encoded digital audio information received in a hybrid in- band on-channel (HIBOC) digital audio broadcasting (DAB) system, but is also applicable to other types of information and other types of communication systems.
