Abstract: Crane assembly including a crane base, a column, and a first actuator for rotating the column in relation to the crane base. A crane boom system includes a liftable and lowerable crane boom which is articulately connected to and movable in relation to the column by a second actuator. A support arrangement includes a stabilizer beam and two stabilizer legs, wherein the two stabilizer legs are arranged to be extended from the stabilizer beam and set to ground during operation of the crane boom system to support the stability of the vehicle and crane assembly. A battery arrangement includes a battery cell, and a battery circuitry unit provided with an electrical power take off, and a battery mounting assembly structured to fixedly mount the battery arrangement to the stabilizer beam. The battery arrangement is configured to electrically operate the first actuator and the second actuator via the electrical power take-off.

Abstract: A system, device and method for recording a pressure profile from the pharynx and upper esophageal sphincter (UES) upon swallowing, includes a manometric catheter insertable into the esophagus and having a first lumen connected to a first pressure sensor and to a water supply by which the first lumen is continuously flushed with water in an open perfusion manometry system for registering the activity of the pharyngeal muscles, a second lumen connecting a water-filled, inelastic elongate balloon to a second pressure sensor in a closed system by which pressure variations in the upper esophageal sphincter is simultaneously and continuously registered, and a processor unit recording and displaying timely correlated pressure profiles derived from pressure data registered by the two pressure sensors. The balloon is filled with water to atmospheric pressure outside the esophagus, and insertable therein for registering absolute pressures from the UES during a normal swallowing act.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for caching mobile station location information comprising a gateway packet switch node for receiving and transmitting data packets between a plurality of visiting packet switch nodes and at least one communication network and a cache memory located within the gateway packet switch node for caching location information received with a data packet from a transmitting mobile station. A communication packet, containing information pertaining to the location of a transmitting mobile station is received by the gateway packet switch node. The location information is extracted from the received communication packet and cached. When an incoming data packet is received by the gateway packet switch node, a determination is made as to whether the location information for the destination mobile station is stored within the cache. If the location information is stored within the cache the location information is retrieved from the cache and the data packet is routed to the mobile station.
