Abstract: A starter generator system comprising an engine driving a first belt and engaged with a second belt through a one-way clutch, a starter generator configured to be driven by the engine through the second belt or to drive the engine through the second belt according to an engine condition, and an accessory engaged with the second belt through an accessory clutch, the accessory drivable by the first belt or the second belt.

Abstract: An isolating decoupler comprising a shaft, a pulley having an inner surface, a pulley rotationally engaged about the shaft, a torsion spring having a first section having a major diameter and a second section having a minor diameter, the major diameter is greater than the minor diameter, the torsion spring engaged with the shaft, a wrap spring having an outer diameter greater than an inner surface diameter, the wrap spring frictionally engaging the inner surface, the wrap spring loaded in an unwinding direction, the torsion spring having an end fixedly connected to the wrap spring, the torsion spring loaded in an unwinding direction whereby the diameter of each coil of the torsion spring decreases in a progressive sequence as a load increases, the first section is disposed radially inboard of the wrap spring such that the first section moves radially outward to clamp the wrap spring during a load condition.

Abstract: An isolating decoupler comprising a shaft, a pulley journalled to the shaft, a torsion spring, the torsion spring comprising a flat surface planar in a plane normal to the rotation axis A-A on each end of the torsion spring, a one-way clutch engaged between the torsion spring and the shaft, a weld bead joining a torsion spring end to the one-way clutch, and a weld bead joining the other torsion spring end to the pulley.

Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus and method to establish media sessions for media streams crossing a network boundary. The system includes a media relay controlled by a media configurator control module. The media relay reserves media paths (that include ports in the network boundary), opens the media paths, closes the media paths, and provides information about the media paths. A media configurator is adapted to communicate with the media configurator control module and the media relay. The control module has an event handler handling multimedia session events, a local address resolver that determines if an address identifier of the media session belongs to a private address space and a control element used to establish the media path. The control element manages resources for the media relay. A state-refresh timer is used to maintain state consistency between all media relays controlled by a proxy engine and control elements.

Abstract: A proxy computer of a network can receive incoming telephony messages from one or more computers outside of the network and proxy them to computers within the network. Similarly, the proxy computer can receive outgoing telephony messages from within the network and proxy them to computers outside of the network. To set up inbound calls, a proxy program on the proxy computer looks for the presence of an alias in the call signaling messages, references a data structure to determine which computer on the network is associated with the alias, and proxies the call signaling and control messages between the callee computer and the calling computer based on the association, thereby creating a logical connection between the calling computer and the callee computer.
