Abstract: A connecting device is provided having a connector housing having a male connecting portion and a female connecting portion formed therewith a plurality of integrally formed male/female terminals mounted in the connector housing, each of the male/female terminals having a male connecting end and a female connecting end, and at least an outlet opening provided on said connector housing for branch-out wires to pass therethrough and to connect to the male/female terminals. This connecting device allows the shunt connection of at least a pair of branch-out wires from a +12V DC cable that is used to supply power to main devices to an electric fan.

Abstract: A packet communications network includes a centrally controlled route testing system in which each node includes test results tables containing the results of all path tests originated at that node. A centralized route management facility initiates a path test originating at any node by remotely altering a trigger value in a trigger data object at that node. A general results table contains general test results for an entire path between the local node and a remote node while a detailed test results table contains detailed, hop-by-hop test results for each transmission leg of a multi-leg path. The general results table contains a name trigger field for identifying a point-to-point path to be tested, and a connection trigger field for identifying a link-by-link path to be tested.

Abstract: A wall mountable holder to dispense the contents of an aerosol can, the holder comprising an outer casing of two parts dimensioned to contain within it a pressurized can, the two parts of said container being pivotally attached at their upper end and having projections to engage the dispensing nozzle of said can so that upon relative movement of said two parts toward each other beyond a predetermined position said means cause movement of said nozzle to thereby release contents from within said can.
