  • Patent number: 5420916
    Abstract: A common channel signaling network comprises a first and a second subnetwork each being composed of interconnected signaling nodes having a service entity. The first and second subnetworks employ different versions of protocol for message transmission. A common signaling node is provided for protocol conversion. As the common signaling node receives a message from a service entity of each subnetwork, it converts the message format to the protocol of the other subnetwork, and transmits it to a service entity of the other subnetwork.

  • Patent number: 5256734
    Abstract: A resin composition is herein provided which comprises 100 parts by weight of a polypropylene and 20 to 100 parts by weight of a hydrogenated styrene/butadiene or styrene/isoprene elastomeric block copolymer having a melt index of not less than 25 g/10 min as determined at a temperature of 230.degree. C. and a load of 2.16 kg/cm.sup.2. A method for manufacturing a coated molded article of the resin composition is herein provided and the method comprises the steps of molding said resin composition and then applying a coating directly without any preliminary surface treatment.

  • Patent number: 4724057
    Abstract: The surface of a product molded of polyolefin is washed with a fluorine-containing organic solvent such as CCl.sub.2 F--CCl.sub.2 F or CCl.sub.2 F--CClF.sub.2 and, thereafter, the product surface is treated with a plasma. Since the product surface is washed with an organic solvent containing fluorine, wastewater and process operation can be controlled with relative ease. A painted product pretreated by the process of the invention has a high peel strength and water resistance.
