  • Patent number: 10069738
    Abstract: A single cellular radio is enabled to support multiple phone lines and data service. The system can be split into two parts: a telephone adapter that receives input from one or more phone lines, and a wireless hot spot communicably coupled to one or more telephone adapters that transmits communications associated with the phone lines and data service to the mobile network. The telephone adapter can include phone jacks, WiFi, and LAN connections and also some traffic management functionality that routes voice traffic to higher class of services than non-voice data. The wireless hotspot can then map communications with higher classes of service to dedicated bearers with guaranteed bitrates, and the lower classes of service to dedicated bearers with non-guaranteed bitrates or even default bearers.

  • Patent number: 9505985
    Abstract: A method of converting particulate lignocellulosic material to produce volatile organic compounds and char, comprising, forming a mixture of the particulate lignocellulosic material with a catalyst composition containing polar organic liquid and an acid in the presence or absence of added water, heating the mixture to a temperature sufficiently high and for a period sufficiently long as to convert a major portion of any remaining solid phase of the mixture to char while agitating the mixture, and separating volatile organic compounds and the catalyst composition as a gaseous phase from the solid phase.

  • Patent number: 5128832
    Abstract: In a "Futurebus+" backplane, at each end of the backplane the signal lines are each electrically connected to a power bus on a face of the board or to a power plane encapsulated in the board via a discrete resistor mounted on the face of the board and separately formed with respect to the other resistors and the ground lines are each electrically connected to the power bus or power plane via a discrete capacitor mounted on the face of the board and separately formed with respect to the other capacitors. Preferably, at each end of the backplane the discrete resistors and capacitors are mounted on both faces of the board, the number on one face being approximately the same as the number on the other face. In the event that a resistor or capacitor should be faulty, only the signal or ground line to which the faulty resistor or capacitor is connected will be out of service until the faulty resistor or capacitor is replaced.

  • Patent number: 5105340
    Abstract: In a "Futurebus+" backplane, at each end of the backplane the signal lines are each electrically connected to a power bus spaced from the rear face of the backplane via a discrete resistor which is housed in a throughbore in a body of electrically insulating material detachably secured to the rear face of the bakplane and which is electrically connected between the power bus and a pin soldered in a plated through hole and interconnected in the signal line. The ground lines are each connected to the power bus via a discrete capacitor which is housed in a throughbore in the body and which is electrically connected between the power bus and a pin soldered in a plated through hole and interconnected in the ground line. In the event that a resistor or capacitor should be faulty, only the signal or ground line to which the faulty resistor or capacitor is connected will be out of service until the faulty resistor or capacitor is replaced.

  • Patent number: 4948375
    Abstract: A kit of parts for assembling an adaptor for electrically connecting a surface mounted component to a perforated circuit board comprises a multiplicity of wire wrap contact pins each having, integral with the trailing end of the pin and extending laterally with respect to its axis, an arm which, when the pin is engaged in a hole in a circuit board, bears against a major surface of the board and constitutes a footprint of the adaptor. The multiplicity of wire wrap pins comprise at least two groups of wire wrap pins, the lateral arms of the pins of each group being identical to one another and the lateral arms of the pins of one group differing from the lateral arms of the pins of each other group.

  • Patent number: 4381711
    Abstract: A hand-held shot tube detonator including a primer and shot tube holder removably mounted on a firing pin body having a flash guard movable between extended and retracted positions. The flash guard is retracted to permit mounting of the holder on the body and is then extended to surround the holder to channel the flash and explosive gases away from the operator when the detonator is fired.
