Abstract: A drinking vessel comprises a body part (10) to receive a drinks liquid, a lid (30) to seal the top of the body part, a liquid outlet passage (50, 52) extending down to a lower region of the interior space of the body part, and an air intake passage (54) also extending down to the lower region of the interior space of the body part. As the user draws liquid out of the vessel through the liquid outlet passage (50, 52), replacement air enters through the air intake passage (54) and then bubbles upwardly through the liquid within the vessel.

Abstract: A joint comprising a main seal, a secondary seal and an external pressure test port providing access to a cavity between the main seal and the secondary seal wherein the integrity of the main seal can be tested in its in-service direction by applying pressure to the cavity via the pressure test port such that the cavity is pressurised and the main seal is tested. Following testing of the main seal, the secondary seal may become redundant during normal use of the joint. In some embodiments, however, the integrity of the main seal can be retested at any time due to the reusability of the secondary seal.

Abstract: A polyphase AC-to-AC inverter (300) for driving a polyphase load (50), which may be an unbalanced load, includes a wye-connected AC voltage source (12) having a neutral terminal (312). The source (12) is coupled to a rectifying arrangement (16) for producing direct voltage across a direct-voltage bus (22). A capacitive bridge (24) on the DC bus (22) has a tap (26) connected to the neutral (312) of the source. The capacitive bridge is isolated from the AC source harmonics by a zero sequence inductor (20). The DC bus voltage at the capacitive bridge feeds a polyphase switching bridge (40). The average voltage at the output of the switching bridge is recovered by a low-pass filter (30) connected to the load. The unbalanced load current is conducted through an inductor to the capacitive bridge tap and the source neutral, with the inductor impedance isolating the load neutral from the DC bus. The switching bridge control can introduce triplen harmonics in the output to increase line-to-line output voltage.

Abstract: There is provided hitching apparatus including a mounting means (10) including a base plate portion (11) supporting integrally formed struts (12) to which is fabricated an upper mounting socket (13). The base plate portion (11) is secured to the goose-neck of a vehicle by means of the threaded stud and nut of a conventional tow ball. The mounting socket (13) is adapted to receive the tongue portion (17) of a guide assembly including a pair of guide plates (21) which in use diverge from their mounting portion (20) to extend rearward and outward of the tow-ball. Reversing the vehicle to the hitch of the trailer with the hitching assembly installed results in either the hitch directly contacting the mounting portion (20) or engagement of the hitching portion with either of the guide plates (21) whereupon the hitching portion is guided to the mounting portion (20).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for serving operator assistance calls from a remote operator assistance system but using the data base of the normal serving operator assistance system to verify the capability of the caller to place the desired call. The call is routed to the remote system where, for example, a specialized operator team, such as a Spanish speaking team, serves calls from an entire region or nation. The remote system accesses the data base of the normal serving system to obtain the data, describing the attributes of the caller, necessary to minimize the number of calls that are fraudulently completed.
