  • Publication number: 20070154359
    Abstract: A fuel cell system includes a de-sulfurization tank, a reformer, a pressure monitoring device and a fuel cell stack. The de-sulfurization tank includes an agent that is adapted to remove sulfur compounds and is capable of undergoing a conditioning cycle. The tank includes an inlet to receive a first hydrocarbon flow and an outlet to provide a second hydrocarbon flow. The reformer is adapted to convert the second hydrocarbon flow into a reformate flow, which is received by the fuel cell stack. The pressure monitoring device monitors a pressure of the second hydrocarbon flow, a circuit of the fuel cell system is coupled to the pressure monitoring device to determine whether the conditioning of the tank is complete based on the pressure.

  • Publication number: 20070067897
    Abstract: A device for controlling odor from a toilet bowl has a housing primarily formed by a top member, a bottom member and a canister holding section for attaching to the bottom member. The canister holding section holds a canister having a nozzle for providing an odor treating spray from the canister. The housing also has two plates depending downwardly from the bottom member and which form an inverted U-shape for mounting the device on a rim of the toilet bowl. Between the top member and bottom member is a biasing device such as springs for biasing a seat of the toilet bowl in an upward direction when the seat is empty, and for allowing the seat to move in a downward direction in response to someone sitting on the seat. The downward motion of the seat moves the top member down, thereby actuating a nozzle on the canister, spraying a metered amount of spray into the toilet bowl.

  • Publication number: 20060075093
    Abstract: A system and method to monitor, detect, analyze and respond to, triggering conditions associated with packet and signal flows in a network system including attached functions and a network infrastructure. The system includes a detection function, an analysis function, and a response function. The detection function includes a monitoring sub-function, a flow definition sub-function, and a monitor counter sub-function. The flow definition sub-function defines the types of activities associated with the traffic flow that may indicate a triggering condition requiring analysis and potentially a response. The monitor sub-function observes traffic flows. The monitor counter sub-function counts the defined types of activities occurring in the device. The analysis function analyzes the event from the monitored flows, flow counters, status and other network information and determines whether a response is required.
