Patent number: 8075677Abstract: A carbon canister with a valve activated by the weight of nearly saturated or saturated carbon communicates with piping from an underground tank. The invention includes carbon within a casing inside a canister, a weight actuated valve, and piping in communication with the atmosphere. When an ORVR vehicle refuels, the pressure lowers in the tank that draws air into the canister. After refueling, the tank remains subject to conditions that generate hydrocarbon vapors. Those vapors then return to the canister and adhere to the surface of the carbon. The carbon, heavier with hydrocarbons, lowers the canister and closes the weight actuated valve. Closing the valve returns pressure control to an external pressure vacuum relief valve. The next refueling draws in atmospheric air to purge the hydrocarbons in the canister and thus lighten it. A secondary purge valve also removes hydrocarbons from the canister. Once the carbon lightens, the inlet valve opens and the vapors return to the canister for adsorption.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2009Date of Patent: December 13, 2011Assignee: Husky CorporationInventors: Timothy Schroeder, Darrell Vilmer, Arthur C.

Publication number: 20080089345Abstract: A method for controlling circuit switched communications using switched virtual circuit (SVC) signaling includes receiving, at a service controller over a signaling channel from an originating end system, a connection setup signal requesting a switched virtual circuit connection. A proxy setup signal enabling setup of the switched virtual circuit connection in response to the connection setup signal is sent over a proxy signaling channel separate from the signaling channel.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2007Publication date: April 17, 2008Applicant: AT&T LABS, INC.Inventors: Philip CUNETTO, James DOHERTY, Chien-Chun LU, Timothy SCHROEDER

Publication number: 20080009432Abstract: Compositions, articles and methods are provided for supplying fabric care benefits to clothing or fabrics in an automated washing machine and by manual washing. The fabric care compositions preferably have less than about 5% detergent surfactants, more preferably less than 3%, even more preferably less than 1% and are most preferably free of detergent surfactants. Similarly, the fabric care compositions preferably have less than about 5% fabric softener actives, more preferably less than 3%, even more preferably less than 1% and are most preferably free of detergent surfactants. The laundry articles can take a variety of forms in a variety of physical states all of which will rapidly dispense a unitized amount of one or more selected fabric care agents to a wash and/or rinse bath solution during the laundering process under a variety of conditions. The invention also pertains to laundry kits that contain a variety of such articles and instructions concerning their use.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2007Publication date: January 10, 2008Inventors: Debra Caswell, Robert Welch, Mark Ridyard, Edward Sayers, David York, Daniel Dufton, Simon Howe, Johan Eshuis, Angelina Pena-Romero, Christophe Laudamiel-Pellet, Wundriari Hoffmann, George Deckner, Errol Wahl, Ruth Murphy, Charles Hensley, Toan Trinh, Jiten Dihora, Ellen Baker, Janet Littig, Timothy Schroeder, Steven Diersing, Malcolm Dodd, Lois Gallon

Publication number: 20070121643Abstract: A network node sets up a virtual connection in a network based on a virtual connection request initiated from an access port different from a first location previously associated with an account of a user. The network node includes a receiver for receiving a signaling message from the access port requesting the virtual connection. The signaling message has at least one field modified to include an address of the access port. The network node further includes a profile database and a registration server. The profile database stores a service policy associated with the user account. The registration server stores an address of the first location associated with the user account as a default registration, determines whether the user is authorized to establish the virtual connection based on the service policy, and replaces the first location address with the access port address when the user is authorized.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2007Publication date: May 31, 2007Applicant: AT&T LABS, INC.Inventors: Philip Cunetto, James Doherty, Chien-Chun Lu, Timothy Schroeder
