Granted: 2013-04-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and system for establishing an emergency session in a communication system which includes at least one user equipment and one or more network entities involved in establishing an emergency session. When the user equipment initiates a session by sending a message to a network entity indicating an identifier, e.g. the call number or logical name of a called entity, one of said network entities analyses the received identifier. When detecting that the session to be initiated is an emergency session, an information is returned to the user equipment for informing the latter that the initiated session is an emergency session. The user equipment thereupon initiates the execution of an emergency session. Thus, even when the user equipment is unable to detect, by itself, that the intended session is an emergency session, the network will inform the user equipment on the emergency session for ensuring appropriate handling thereof.

Abstract: A selectively protected electrical system includes or operated with a power source(1514) , a load (1512), a power driver circuit (1506) for controllably transferring power from the power source (1514) to the load (1512), the power driver circuit(1506) being encapsulated in a potting material, and a controller(1518) for enabling and disabling the power driver circuit (1506), the controller (1518) being un-encapsulated by the potting material. If a contaminant induced electrical fault occurs in the selectively protected electrical system, the electrical fault is more likely to occur in the un-encapsulated controller, such that the selectively protected electrical system is disabled. The contaminant is inhibited from contacting and inducing an electrical fault in the power driver circuit, thus providing for a controlled failure of the selectively protected electrical system.

Title: Method for producing metallic iron
Inventor: KIKUCHI SHOICHI
IPC: C21B13/00
Filed: 2004-01-16
Granted: 2011-11-29
Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing metallic iron, in which after a mixture including a carbonaceous reducing agent and iron oxide is fed onto a hearth of a moving hearth reducing-melting furnace and is then heated so that the iron oxide is reduced and melted, metallic iron to be obtained is cooled and is then discharged outside the furnace for recovery. In the method described above, even when powdered metallic iron is squeezed into the surface of the hearth, or the hearth is damaged by slag infiltration and corrosion, the removal and repair can be easily performed, the operation rate and maintenability of the hearth can be improved, and hence a long continuous operation can be suitably performed.     According to the present invention, metallic iron is produced by the steps of, prior to the feed of raw agglomerates, bedding a granular hearth material on the moving hearth for forming a layered renewable hearth, which can be renewed; removing part or the entirety of the renewable hearth, which was degraded during operation, and then newly feeding the hearth material for forming a new renewable hearth; leveling the surface of the newly formed hearth; and subsequently feeding the mixture.
