  • Publication number: 20200236610
    Abstract: A method and a subscriber identity component for providing a wireless device with access to a network node are disclosed. The subscriber identity component is provisioned with information defining a set of pools relating to pool subscriber identities. The subscriber identity component determines a pool subscriber identity based on a pool among the set of pools. The subscriber identity component checks a connection state relating to whether or not the wireless device is granted access to the network node by use of the pool subscriber identity. Furthermore, when the connection state indicates that the wireless device is granted access to the network node, the subscriber identity component provides the wireless device with access to the network node based on the pool subscriber identity. Furthermore, a corresponding computer program and a computer program carrier are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20070247272
    Abstract: A thermally activated circuit interrupter (10) has a cantilever mounted, snap acting thermostatic disc (16) mounting a movable electric contact (18) that is adapted to move between a contacts engaged position and a tripped, contacts disengaged position. A pivot member (24) is rotatably mounted above the thermostatic disc and movably mounts a latch (26d) that is biased by spring arm (26a) against the edge of the free end of thermostatic disc (16) in the contacts engaged position and is moved under the thermostatic disc when the disc moves to the contacts disengaged position. An arm (24b) of the pivot member transfers motion to a trip indicator button (32) pushing the button to an exposed position upon rotation of the pivot member when the thermostatic disc moves to the tripped configuration and the latch moves under the disc.

  • Publication number: 20070161811
    Abstract: The invention relates to control fungal growth on tanned hides, using cyanodithiocarbimates of formula (I): X is a halogen; R is a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C14 alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2-C14 alkenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2-C14 alkynyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted group defined by Y—Ar—(CH2)m— or by Z-(CH2)n—; Ar is a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group selected from phenyl, or naphthyl; Y is H, halogen, NO2, R1, R1O, R1R2N; Z is NC, R1O, R1OC(O), R1OCH2CH2(OCH2CH2)p m ranges from 0 to 3; n ranges from 0 to 3; p ranges from 0 to 3; and R1 and R2 are independently H, substituted or unsubstituted C1-C5 alkyl.

  • Publication number: 20070115089
    Abstract: A switchable thermal circuit breaker (10) has an automatically resettable, current carrying thermostatic disc (14) cantilever mounted in a housing (12) and carries a movable contact (14b) into and out of electrical engagement with a stationary contact (14c). A disc coupling member (16) is pivotally mounted above the disc and has fingers (16e, 16f) to capture opposed sides of the disc so that the disc coupling member pivots concomitantly with movement of the disc. A radially extending blade (18c) of a pivot member is biased by a spring (18k) into engagement with a stop surface (16k) of the disc coupling member when the contacts are in the engaged position and is movable under the stop arm (16g) when the disc moves to the contacts disengaged position to prevent reengagement of the contacts.

  • Publication number: 20060289354
    Abstract: A method and composition for killing, preventing, or inhibiting the growth of microorganisms in an aqueous system or on a substrate capable of supporting a growth of microorganisms are provided by providing a lactoperoxidase, hydrogen peroxide or a peroxide source, a halide, other than a chloride, or a thiocyanate, and, optionally, an ammonium source, under conditions in which the lactoperoxidase, peroxide from the hydrogen peroxide or peroxide source, halide or thiocyanate and ammonium from the ammonium source interact to provide an antimicrobial agent to the aqueous system or substrate.

  • Publication number: 20060112494
    Abstract: Animal skins, pelts, and hides are protected from putrefaction, degradation or deterioration caused by metalloproteinases such as collagenase by applying at least one metalloproteinase inhibitor to a fluid in which the animal skin or hide is dipped or soaked, or applying at least one metalloproteinase inhibitor to a solid surface that directly or indirectly comes into contact with the animal skin or hide
