Abstract: A communication system is composed of a quality determining unit, a gateway, and a user fee determining unit. The quality determining unit determines a QoS (quality of service). The gateway transfers an IP datagram at said QoS. The user fee determining unit determines a user fee for said IP datagram based on said QoS.

Abstract: While the presently operable communication infrastructure is used, a wireless line is connected only during data transmission/reception. When no data is transmitted/received between an information processing terminal and a mobile station, a wireless line connection control apparatus instructs to the mobile station that the wireless line is interrupted. When a protocol quasi-terminating apparatus detects that the line is interrupted, this protocol quasi-terminating apparatus quasi-terminates the protocol in order that a logical link established between the communication network and the mobile station is not disconnected. As a result, the wireless line can be connected only when the data is transmitted/received without requiring user's operation.

Abstract: A mobile communications system includes a service-providing base station for providing down-link communication to the mobile station to transmit broadcast service data to a mobile station. In a switch device of the mobile communications system, it is determined whether the mobile station can communicate with the service-providing base station based on available base station information received from the mobile station. The available station information indicates an available base station with which the mobile station can communicate. The mobile station is instructed to change a receive channel to a down-link channel of the service-providing station when the mobile station can communicate with the second base station.

Abstract: A cable guide for a terminal crimping apparatus includes a guide member held between support plates in a clamped state such that one end of the guide member is turnably supported while the other end of the guide member is normally biased in the upward direction by the resilient force of a coil spring. A cable is inserted through a nozzle and a slit formed through the fore end part of a restricting piece. As an arm is turned, the nozzle and the restricting piece are displaced toward a cable guide together with the arm. Thus, the cable is displaced to an optimum cable feeding position relative to an applicator while slidably moving along the upper surface of the guide member. Since the plate-shaped guide member serves to properly guide the displacement of the cable, the terminal is always securely crimped and the cable is prevented from being undesirably deformed.

Abstract: In a weft insertion system of an air jet loom, a weft passage in the form of a U-shaped groove opening forwardly toward a cloth fell is formed by recesses of profiled reed dents, and sub-nozzles are arranged to direct auxiliary air jets into the weft passage. In order to obtain a desirable air stream in the weft passage, and to prevent a weft yarn from flying out of the passage, an upper edge of each recess, bordering the recess on the upper side, is inclined so that a distance from an axis of swing motion of the reed becomes gradually smaller toward the open end of the recess. Furthermore, an innermost edge of each recess is inclined so as to intersect at an angle with a straight line passing through the axis of swing motion.

Abstract: A tack-in selvage forming apparatus for tacking in the end portion of a picked weft yarn to form a selvage structure in weaving a towel. The tack-in selvage forming apapratus is comprised of a tack-in needle which is controllably driven by a driving mechanism including a cylindrical grooved cam rotatable in timed relation to a main shaft of a loom. The grooved cam is formed at its periphery with generally annular shallow and deep cam grooves. The shallow cam groove is parallel with a plane perpendicular to the axis of the grooved cam, while the deep cam groove is curved relative to the same plane. A part of the shallow cam groove and a part of the deep cam groove is common and the same in depth. The shallow cam groove has a profile corresponding to a resting state of the tack-in needle, while the deep cam groove has a profile corresponding to a tack-in operational state of the tack-in needle. A cam follower drivingly connected to the tack-in needle is selectively put into the shallow and deep cam grooves.

Abstract: An auxiliary nozzle for an air jet loom, arranged to provide assisting force to a weft yarn picked from a weft inserting nozzle. The auxiliary nozzle is formed with a nozzle opening through which auxiliary air is ejected to enhance the air stream from the weft inserting nozzle. The nozzle opening consists of two lateral opening sections which are spaced and parallel with each other, and an axial opening section connecting the two lateral opening sections with each other. Each lateral opening section extends generally perpendicular to a plane passing through the axis of the auxiliary nozzle. The axial opening section extends generally parallel with the above-mentioned plane. Thus, the nozzle opening is generally H-shaped and extends in the direction of the thickness of the nozzle body of the auxiliary nozzle, thereby stabilizing direction of the auxiliary air ejection from the auxiliary nozzle without being affected by a variation of the air pressure to be supplied to the auxiliary nozzle.
