Patent number: 10420002Abstract: The performance and ease of management of wireless communications environments is improved by a mechanism that enables access points (APs) to perform automatic channel selection. A wireless network can therefore include multiple APs, each of which will automatically choose a channel such that channel usage is optimized. Furthermore, APs can perform automatic power adjustment so that multiple APs can operate on the same channel while minimizing interference with each other. Wireless stations are load balanced across APs so that user bandwidth is optimized. A movement detection scheme provides seamless roaming of stations between APs.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2018Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: Xenogenic Development Limited Liability CompanyInventors: Floyd Backes, Gary Vacon, Paul Callahan, William Hawe, Roger Durand

Publication number: 20190248051Abstract: A process is disclosed to encapsulate the exterior surface of a metal drinking cup or other similar heat resistant container with plastic material such as polybutylene terephthalate in an injection molding process. A fixture holds a metal container in place and is inserted within a mold. Plastic material is then injected into the mold and surrounds the exterior surface of the container and allowed to cool. The container includes various physical features on its exterior to prevent the slipping of the plastic material off of the cup after cooling. Using an injection molding process to surround and encapsulate the exterior surface of a metal container with plastic results in a thicker surface over the container, and creates an ideal platform for receiving high resolution images and designs for impregnation using a further dye sublimation process.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2018Publication date: August 15, 2019Applicant: Sun-Fly International Business Development LimitedInventor: Xuhui Sun
