Abstract: A hard pipe connecting device and manifold system are disclosed that solve technical problems of existing fracturing pipelines, such as poor safety performance, too many connecting parts, inconvenient and ineffective connection between the parts, complicated installation structure, and difficulty to adjust the distance and the angle. In order to solve the technical problems, the hard pipe connecting device includes at least one non-concentric connecting pipe joint, which includes a pipe body and first flanges at opposite ends of the pipe body. The two first flanges are parallel to each other with a distance difference h, where h>0.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for user transfer in a Cloud-radio access network (C-RAN) are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method includes in response to a request for migrating a user from a first user equipment (UE) virtualized network function component (VNFC) to a second UE VNFC, receiving at the second UE VNFC, dynamic context information of packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer and radio link control (RLC) layer for data transmission of the user from the first UE VNFC. The method further includes continuing process of the data transmission of the user at the second UE VNFC based on the dynamic context information.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for load balancing in a Cloud-radio access network (C-RAN) are disclosed. A method includes receiving control plane (CP) data associated with a user from a core network or a remote access point; and dispatching the CP data to a first user equipment (UE) virtualized network function component (VNFC) based on a first route.

Abstract: A quick release sternum closing fixator has a locking roller, and a male fixing piece and a female fixing piece that can be plugged together. The male fixing piece has an elastic plug and the first claw hook plate. The elastic plug has the first serration on both sides and a tightening groove in the middle, thus forming two elastic claws. A tensioning device forces the two elastic claws to move against each other is provided between the said locking roller and the two elastic claws. After the locking roller rotates, when the elastic claws on the male fixing piece lose resilience due to the growth of human tissues, the two elastic claws can be forcibly pulled back to the initial state by rotating the locking roller, thus smoothly and quickly opening the sternum closing fixator.
