  • Patent number: 11075998
    Abstract: Provided are an architecture, method and apparatus for realizing communication between network functions. The network function establishes interworking with other communication domains via the interface function. An interworking interface between a network function and a selected interface function is identical to an interworking interface between the network function and a destination network function. With the architecture, the network function and the interface function are decoupled. The interworking between network functions within the communication domain and the interworking between the network function within the communication domain and the network function outside the communication domain are achieved by using only one type of interworking interface.

  • Patent number: 10597228
    Abstract: A magnetic drive intelligent trash bin lid assembly automatically opens and closes a lid portion relative to a trash container. The lid portion comprises a shell that pivotally joins the container at a lid shaft. A sensor detects motion near the lid, and activates a drive motor in response. The drive motor powers an output shaft to rotate and engages a magnetic clutch. The magnetic clutch includes two magnets that are released from their respective seats to attract each other; and thereby axially displace the output shaft into engagement with a variable linkage. The magnetic clutch engages and disengages the drive motor and the variable linkage, allowing the variable linkage to articulate independently of the drive motor. This separation reduces excessive loads as the lid portion articulates between open and closed positions. A spring absorbs forces in the magnetic clutch, so as to reduce axial loads in the magnetic clutch.
