  • Patent number: 9288657
    Abstract: A separate domain selection function is utilized as the first function in a communication path for a communication that is to be connected to a user device registered in a first network or a second network. If a result of the domain selection function indicates call control should be maintained by first network (e.g., user device is registered with first network or a network with which first network has a control relationship), call control of the communication remains with first network. If the result of the domain selection function indicates the user device is registered with second network, call control is suspended by the first network, which allows the communication to bypass the first network.

  • Publication number: 20160061833
    Abstract: This invention relates to novel rationale and methods for identifying human and primate taste-specific genes, including genes involved in salty taste perception, especially human salty taste perception, but also genes involved in sweet, bitter, umami, and sour taste perception, and genes involved in other taste cell or taste receptor related activities such as digestive function and digestive related diseases, taste cell turnover, immunoregulation of the oral and digestive tract, and metabolic regulation such as in diabetes and obesity, the genes identified using these methods, and assays for identifying taste modulators (enhancers or blockers) and potential therapeutics using these genes. These compounds have potential application in modulating (enhancing or blocking) taste perception, especially salty taste perception and as potential therapeutics.

  • Publication number: 20160053509
    Abstract: A handle mechanism used for driving a lock module in operation includes a handle, a linking member and a transmission rod, wherein the linking member is selectively engaged with the handle and the transmission rod. The handle is unable to drive the lock module in operation by the transmission rod driving and prevents the lock module from damage once an excessive force is applied to the handle when the linking member is not engaged with the handle and the transmission rod. Oppositely, the handle is able to drive the lock module in operation by the transmission rod driving when the linking member is engaged with the handle and the transmission rod.

  • Patent number: 9260884
    Abstract: A lock cylinder includes a cylinder housing with a upper pin hole set and a replacing opening, a cylinder body with a lower pin hole set, a upper locking pin set, a second locking pin set and a clip member. The cylinder body is movably disposed inside the cylinder housing. The upper locking pin set is disposed inside the upper pin hole set for engaging the cylinder housing and the cylinder body. The second locking pin set is disposed inside the lower pin hole set for disengaging the cylinder housing from the cylinder body. The clip member constrains the cylinder body from sliding on the cylinder housing in a first position, and does not constrains the cylinder body from sliding on the cylinder housing in a second position. The cylinder body slides to a replacing position for replacing the second locking pin set via the replacing opening.

  • Patent number: 9166569
    Abstract: A relaxation oscillator is provided in the present invention. The relaxation oscillator includes a R-S latch, a first delay circuit and a second delay circuit. The input terminal of the first delay circuit is coupled to the Q output terminal of the R-S latch, and the output terminal of the first delay circuit is coupled to the reset terminal of the R-S latch. The input terminal of the second delay circuit is coupled to the inversion Q output terminal of the R-S latch, and the output terminal of the second delay circuit is coupled to the set terminal of the R-S latch. When the input terminal of the first delay circuit inputs a first logic voltage, after a delay time, the output terminal of the first delay circuit outputs a second logic pulse. When the input terminal of the second delay circuit inputs the first logic voltage, after the delay time, the output terminal of the second delay circuit outputs the second logic pulse.
