  • Patent number: 6997500
    Abstract: A multifunctional third row seating assembly that is capable of moving between two seating positions, as well as moving between split passenger seating configurations and between seating and storage positions. In the storage position, the third row seating assembly forms a true flat floor in combination with a second row seating assembly. The third row seating assembly includes a seat cushion and a seat squab coupled to it and mounted to the vehicle such that the third row seating assembly can be pivoted in an elliptical movement between a forward and a rearward seating position. The third row seat cushion is also latched such that it can be released and flipped over from a front longitudinal axis to fit into a foot rest area of the vehicle. The third row squab can then be folded down to form a flat floor. The third row squab is also constructed in two sections, so that it is capable of forming a bench seat or a split seat.

  • Publication number: 20030182411
    Abstract: A method for replacing a current operating software working with current files by a new operating software working with new files in a working network environment. Prior to replacement, the current operating software and current files reside in an active region of a network element, while the network element is active and maintains a prior operating software in a non-active region. The prior operating software is preserved in the non-active region and new operating software is downloaded to the non-active region and installed there while the current files are saved and updated to create updated files conforming to the new operating software. The network element is then rebooted such that the active region and the non-active region are swapped, thus replacing the current operating software working with the current files with the new operating software working with the updated files.
