  • Patent number: 10315059
    Abstract: A back pressure flap valve arrangement is disclosed. The arrangement comprises a housing (101) having an inlet opening (102) and an outlet opening (103) adapted for connection of the housing (101) to a ducting (200), and at least one side wall (104) extending along a flow direction through the housing (101) from the inlet opening (102) to the outlet opening (103). A flap (1) is pivotably hinged about a shaft (5) thereby being movable between an open position and a closed position, said shaft (5) extending transverse the flow direction. At least one locking device (10) is fixedly mounted to the side wall (104) and comprises a locking pin (14) and a stopping member (12).

  • Patent number: 7584293
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the information transmission rate between telecommunications nodes. More particularly the invention relates to the control of the rate at which information is transmitted between access nodes separated by a core network. The present invention provides an information rate control function adapted to authorize and/or establish a communication rate for transmission of information including: determining a plurality of maximum information transmission rates along a path of communication established between the plurality of access nodes; selecting a lowest one of the plurality of maximum information transmission rates, and; authorizing and/or establishing communication at a rate no greater than the selected lowest rate. The invention is suitable for use in the transmission of voice information to and from mobile terminals in third-generation mobile access networks across an ATM core network.

  • Patent number: 7233595
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the transport of information between telecommunications nodes. In one aspect, in a telecommunication system having a first network based on a first technology and a second network based on a second technology, the second network in communication with the first network, the present invention relates to providing a message encoding format profile functionality adapted to enable transport of encoded information along at least a portion of a path of communication established between the networks, including: mapping the encoded information from a first message having a first message encoding format to a second message having a second message encoding format wherein the mapping is performed in accordance with the following steps: a) determining message User-to-User Indication information; b) determining message Length Indicator information and; c) selecting a message encoding format based on the determination of steps a) and b), above.

  • Patent number: 7031703
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method of communicating operating capabilities in a telecommunication network or networks. The present invention stems from the realisation that mobile telecommunication network resources can be utilised with greater efficiency by maintaining mobile station attributes or operating capabilities at a network node associated with the mobile station. Preferably, the network node is a Visitor Location Register VLR. Additionally, the network node may be a Home Location Register HLR, a Mobile Switching Centre MSC or a Gateway Mobile Switching Centre GMSC. In particular, the invention may provide the creation of a list of operating capabilities at a network node upstream from the mobile station. Having done this, a comparison of this list with another list received from a remote telecommunication element to negotiate operating capabilities at a call set up is achieved without involving communication resources between the mobile station and the network node.
