Abstract: A user interface control that has different logic components for processing different role logic depending on a role that is played by the user interface control. The user interface control may also have a general function component that performs general functions that may be common across multiple user interface controls. Also, a protocol for use in communicating between two user interface controls to establish a communications link. A first user interface control requests information from a second user interface control, which then obtains the requested information. The second user interface control then provides the requested information to the first user interface control, and then awaits the validation of the requested information.

Abstract: A switch pack holds rows and columns of connector plugs and permits collective coupling of the plugs into ports. The switch pack includes a housing having a front face with front openings and a rear face with rear openings. An internal frame forms channels between the front openings and the rear openings, each channel holding a respective connector plug. One or more locking members releasably snap lock to the frame. Each locking member includes at least one blocking edge which extends into a channel and blocks removal of the channel's plug via the rear opening. A release tool for the switch pack includes a first wall with first tabs and a second wall with second tabs, connected to the first wall by a third wall. Each of the first and second tabs protrudes into a channel of the first and second rows of channels to depress a plug latch.

Abstract: A suspension includes a positive write trace and a negative write trace. The positive write trace is separated into at least two positive write trace sections located at two different layers respectively, and the negative write trace is separated into at least two negative write trace sections located at two different layers respectively. Each positive write trace section and each negative write trace section are alternately arranged along a longitudinal direction on two different layers, and the positive write trace sections at different layers are connected together via conductive crossovers, and the negative write trace sections are connected together via conductive crossovers. The present invention can obtain balanced propagation time in the stacked trace structure to reduce signal distortion, and obtain widened frequency bandwidth.

Abstract: Disclosed are computers and methods of operating those computers. In the methods, a computer in a touch lock state displays a lock screen image showing a cover layer superimposed over, and obscuring, a background layer. A user enters a touch input to a touch screen of the computer, thereby specifying a portion of that touchscreen. The lock screen image is then modified so that the cover layer does not obscure the background layer in the specified portion of the touchscreen. The cover layer in the region of the touchscreen that is not specified in the touch input continues to obscure the background layer in those regions. If the portion of the touchscreen specified by the touch input exceeds a threshold amount the computer may be changed from being in a touch lock state to being in a touch unlock state.

Abstract: An LED illuminating device includes a base, an LED substrate mounted on the base, at least one LED on the substrate and an envelope fixed on the base. The envelope includes a plurality of transmission regions and a plurality of reflective regions. The lights beams emitted by the LED reaches the envelope. A first portion of the light beams reaching transmission regions can pass therethough. A second portion of the light beams are internally reflected in multiple times by the reflective regions until they finally escape to outside through the transmission regions. The direction of the light beams can reach various locations of each of the transmission regions at various angles.

Abstract: A smart 3GDT schema has been disclosed, in detail, a method for controlling the communication of a network system has bee disclosed. The network system comprises a UE, a NodeB, a RNC, a SGSN, and a GW. The UE is arranged to be in communication with the RNC via the NodeB, and the RNC is arranged to be in communication with the SGSN which in turn being arranged to be in communication with the GW for non-3GDT communication of the network system, or the RNC is arranged to be in communication with the GW for 3GDT communication of the network system. In this method, statistics of payload transferred between the UE and the GW has been monitored, and if the statistics of payload within a predetermined time period exceeds a first threshold, and the UE is in the non-3GDT communication, then switching the non-3GDT communication to the 3GDT communication. The present application has also disclosed the SGSN, GW, and the network system adaptive to perform the method.

Abstract: An exemplary light source assembly includes a light guide plate, a printed circuit board and light emitting elements. Each of the light emitting elements includes a cuneiform base and a light emitting diode. The cuneiform base includes an inclined surface sloped relative to an outer surface of the printed circuit board. The corresponding light emitting diode is placed on the inclined surface of the cuneiform base such that the light emitting diode is angled on the printed circuit board. Thereby, light is obliquely emitted from the light emitting elements onto the light guide plate.

Abstract: The present subject matter discloses a method for transmitting a text message including: receiving a text message to be transmitted, which is encoded with a first character set encoding scheme; determining whether a final receiver of the text message supports the first character set encoding scheme; and in response to the situation in which the final receiver of the text message does not support the first character set encoding scheme: converting the text message to be transmitted into an image; and transmitting the converted image. With this method, parties involved in transmission of a text message can enable convenient and efficient transmission of the text message without requiring each party involved in the transmission of the text message to satisfy specific prerequisites normally necessary for proper reproduction of the text message transmitted from an opposite party.
