Publication number: 20180372250Abstract: A hose clamp to be used with high-pressure hoses consists of a first clamping plate, a second clamping plate, and a fastening mechanism. The first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are positioned around the high-pressure hose and removably attached together with the fastening mechanism. When positioned appropriately, the high-pressure hose is placed within a receiving channel of the first clamping plate and a receiving channel of the second clamping plate. An inner rubber coating is used to further secure the high-pressure hose within the receiving channel of the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate. To do so, the inner rubber coating is layered along the receiving channel of the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2017Publication date: December 27, 2018Inventor: Thomas Guy Putorti

Patent number: 10034232Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for managing the automatic provision of a subscriber network identifier from a central network server to a subscribed communication device, the method comprising receiving notification at the central server relating to a change in the current location for the subscribed device, and determining from the notification whether a new subscriber network identifier is to be provisioned from the central server. The method further comprises selecting a subscriber network identifier on the basis of the current location, if the determining step has determined that a new subscriber network identifier is to be provisioned, and outputting the selected subscriber network identifier for transmission to the subscribed device. The present invention also relates to managing the automatic connection of a subscribed communication device to a network, where a preferred network and preferred subscriber network identifier may be used.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2017Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: Truphone LimitedInventors: James Peter Tagg, Edward Thomas Guy, III, Timothy Paul Evans, Robert Snijder, Igor Borisoglebski, Alistair James Campbell, Claudio Sequeira

Patent number: 9774742Abstract: A method of recording media transmitted to or from a first party communicating through one of a plurality of mobile telecommunications networks with a second party is described. Either the first party or the second party initiates a call with the other party. One of a set of call splitters distributed through the plurality of telecommunications networks is then determined to be a local call splitter to one of the parties. A connection is then established between the first party and the local call splitter to split the call into a recording part and a call part. The call part is routed between the first party and the second party via the call splitter to provide transmission of media between the first party and the second party, and the recording part is provided by the local call splitter to a recording service associated with the first party.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2015Date of Patent: September 26, 2017Assignee: Truphone LimitedInventors: James Tagg, Timothy Paul Evans, Igor Borisoglebski, James Edward Body, Edward Thomas Guy, III
