Title: System and method for making managing wireless network activity
Inventor: SALE EDWIN L
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 2003-05-20
Abstract: A network security system includes a system data store (110) capable of storing a variety of data associated with a wireless computer network (180A, 180B) and communication transmitted thereon, a communication interface supporting communication over a communication channel and a system processor.  Data corresponding communications transmitted over the wireless communication network (180A, 180B) are received. One or more tests are applied to the received data to determine whether a particular communication represents a potential security violation. An alarm may be generated based upon the results of the applied test or tests. In some systems, configuration data associated with an access point on a wireless computer network potentially compromised by an intruder is received. Information contained within and/or derived from the received configuration data is stored. Communication with the intruder is continued by emulating the identification characteristics of the potentially compromised access point. A channel change request is transmitted to the potentially compromised access point and reroute communication between the potentially compromised access point and authorized stations such that communications may continue on a different channel.

Filed: 2005-06-21
Abstract: An improved method of manufacture for an isolated cross-axis ball joint, utilized in an articulated torque-rod end, wherein an isolated outer cylindrical element is chemically mold bonded to a pre-curled intermediate sleeve to provide isolation there from. The inner bearing element is comprised of a heat-treated spherical inner sleeve that rotates upon two lubricated plastic bearing races and two seals with encapsulated steel washers in each seal. The intermediate sleeve is pre-curled or manufactured at one end so as to retain a first seal. The first bearing race is then dropped in, followed by the heat-treated spherical inner sleeve, followed by the second ball race and the second seal. The second end of the intermediate sleeve is then fixed by compression and implementation of a retaining means, such as curling to close the bearing element. The seals provide the wear compensation of the ball joint by adding compression after the fixing of the intermediate sleeve.

Title: Trigger sprayer spray, off, stream, off indexing nozzle assembly
Inventor: FOSTER DONALD D
IPC: B05B1/12
Filed: 2004-01-29
Abstract: An indexing nozzle assembly for a trigger sprayer has a manually rotatable cap mounted for rotation on a liquid spinner of the nozzle assembly. Rotation of a cap changes the nozzle assembly between an off condition, a spray condition, a second off condition, and a stream condition of the liquid discharged from the nozzle assembly. The cap can be rotated from the off position directly to either of the spray or stream positions by rotating the cap one-quarter turn in opposite directions. A spatial relationship between an end surface of the liquid spinner and an interior surface of the cap end wall that surrounds the assembly discharge orifice improves the stream configuration of liquid discharged by the nozzle assembly.
