Method and system aspects properly enable and disable a function in a peripheral device. In a system aspect, the system includes a processing system, and a control mechanism within the peripheral device and coupled to the processing system, the control mechanism controlling enabling and disabling of a function in the peripheral device. The control mechanism further includes a decoder coupled to the processing system, and a counter coupled to the decoder. In a method aspect, the method includes receiving first and second control signals at a control mechanism in the peripheral device from at least one component in the processing system, and maintaining a state of the peripheral device at a predetermined level according to a value of the control mechanism, wherein the first and second control signals alter the value of the control mechanism.

Cradle assembly comprises a breaker-engaging frame slidably coupled to an enclosure-engaging frame. The enclosure will have a rear wall provided with forwardly extending stationary terminals. The breaker will have rearwardly facing terminals aligned for engaging the stationary terminals. The rear wall of the enclosure is fixed relative to the side walls of the enclosure. The enclosure-engaging frame of the cradle assembly engages the side walls as the breaker is mounted to the breaker-engaging frame. The cradle assembly facilitates moving the breaker between a connected and disconnected position. In the connected position, the breaker terminals are engaged with the enclosure stationary terminals. In the disconnected position, the breaker terminals are disengaged and spaced from the stationary terminals.

A reception indicator circuit is provided for use in an apparatus, wherein the apparatus enables a host system to receive information packets from a medium. The reception indicator circuit has a delay calculator, a byte count comparator and a signal asserter. The delay calculator selects and reads a reference delay value in one of N number of length-delay data storage elements. A reference length value contained in the one of N number of length-delay data storage elements corresponds to a length value of an information packet being received by the apparatus. The length value of the information packet is determined based on data in the information packet. The byte count comparator detects when the reference delay value number of bytes in the information packet have been received by the apparatus. The signal asserter asserts a reception indication signal when the byte count comparator detects that the reference delay value number of bytes in the information packet have been received by the apparatus. Alternatively, the reception indicator circuit may include a delay calculator that either calculates or selects an interrupt time. In such an alternate reception indicator circuit, the byte count comparator may be replaced by a delay comparator that determines when the interrupt time has elapsed. After the interrupt time has elapsed, the signal asserter asserts the reception indication signal. The apparatus may be a network peripheral, and the medium may be a communications network.

A drive mechanism for a circuit interrupter comprising a crank and lever pivotally interconnected by a resiliently yielding connecting rod assembly. The connecting rod assembly comprises a coil compression spring and first and second links slidably coupled together to compress the coil compression spring. Rotation of the crank in either direction causes the lever to drive the movable contact of the circuit interrupter into and out of engagement with the stationary contact. The coil compression spring is loaded under compression when the movable contact is driven into engagement with the stationary contact, storing and maintaining a mechanical static load on the movable contact for as long as the movable contact is engaged with the stationary contact.

A method and apparatus as provided that simplifies the software required for modifying the contents of a register. By adding one gate to the register, a single command can be written to the register to modify the states of multiple bits. The system reduces software overhead significantly when multiple registers must be modified.

Apparatus for opening a carcass hide preparatory to removal of the hide (20) from the carcass (26). The apparatus includes a clearing blade (11) with a leading cutting edge (16) which is inserted between the hide (20) and subcutaneous tissues (21) and is advanced along the carcass (26) to separate the hide (20). An opening blade (31) trails behind the clearing blade (11) and creates an opening cut along the hide. The hide edges (22, 23) peel up and outwardly and can be clamped. A drive arrangement (50) includes a mounting (51) for the clearing blade (11) and the opening blade (30) and drive means (52) to advance the mounting (51) along a track (56) located adjacent to the carcass (26). Rump lifting means (65) elevates the carcass rump to the desired height for starting the hide opening at the cleared opening (61) at the anus.
摘要:
A cable comprising a core enclosed in an external sheath of a char-forming low-smoke-and-fume composition is characterized by a tape of flexible mineral material, preferably a woven glass-fiber tape, wrapped round the core and by an adhesive bonding the tape to the sheath. Hot-melt adhesives based on ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymers with tackifier resins are suitable. By bonding the sheath to the underlying tape, retention of the charred remains of the sheath under fire conditions is considerably improved with consequent improvements in flame retardance, smoke levels and fire survival.
