摘要:
A method and system for communication between server-less computing devices or clients in computers communicating over networks, such as the World Wide Web (WWW) using stateless protocols, e.g., HTTP. In this scheme there are two classes of clients which can operate independently or can be combined in computer communicating over the network: a) Clients that issue commands and request status or data, and b) clients which function as service brokers for provide services and processing commands, updating status and providing specific data. Based on the description of the latter client device it would resemble a server device but without accessible TCP/IP ports. Each service providing device is authenticated, retains a unique identity and establishes a soft state with the globally accessible server or servers. All devices and clients can compile and process a globally common command language established between all communicating network clients. The central server includes a CGI processing program and a database to retain client specific information. The server database represents a collection of queues, each having a client unique identifiable status, pending commands and/or data components. In this scheme commands and signaling transmitted between the servers and clients utilize standard HTTP protocol semantics and HTML or standard markup language syntax. Clients encapsulate or embed information as parameters passed to HTTP CGI as a set of standard HTTP conversations. A CGI processing program converts, parses or processes each conversation and passes arguments with or without data to queues. Each conversation is includes a client identification key(s) and commands which are structured as attribute-value pair tuples. The service-handler client connects to the central server and accesses the client queue on the central server to check for any pending commands or update their status in either synchronous or asynchronous manner. The synchronous server access scheme is regulated temporally by either deterministic clocking on server response or by a server based adaptive algorithm which can monitor network and client activities and optimize client access patterns.

A variable position sensor has a stationary portion and a moveable portion. A plurality of plates are positioned on one of the members with the surfaces of the plates forming segments of a larger surface. A single plate is mounted on the other of the two members. One pole of an electric potential is applied to a first of the plurality of plates on the one member and the second pole of the electric potential is applied to the single plate on the other member. Similarly a pole of an electric potential is separately applied to each of the other of the parallel plates and to the one plate. When the one plate is positioned adjacent one of the plurality of plates a capacitance is formed between the adjacent plates, and by detecting the capacitance the position of the one plate can be determined.

A microscale out-of-plane thermal sensor. A resistive heater is suspended over a substrate by supports raised with respect to the substrate to provide a clearance underneath the resistive heater for fluid flow. A preferred fabrication process for the thermal sensor uses surface micromachining and a three-dimensional assembly to raise the supports and lift the resistive heater over the substrate.

A freezer has a freezer access door and an ice dispensing door between a freezer enclosure and the ambient through which ice is dispensed. Both doors are closeable against an associated doorframe. A heater is provided in one of the door and doorframe for each of the doors to prevent the doors from freezing to their associated frames, and a switch and controller are provided to control the application of power to each of the heating elements. Heat is applied to the heating elements when a sensor senses that the humidity of the ambient is above a given threshold and terminates power to the heating elements when the sensor senses that the humidity of the ambient is below the given threshold.

A computer dock is mounted within the armrest of an automobile between the driver and passenger seat thereof. The armrest includes an enclosure having a forward opening, a rearward opening, and a passage therethrough. A tray for retaining a computer is mounted on a slide structure slideably moveable to any of three positions. In the first position, the tray is positioned forward of the forward opening. In the second position, the tray is positioned rearward of the rearward opening. In the third position, the tray is positioned within the enclosure of the armrest. The computer dock is built into the tray and includes all the functions needed to support the computer and has attachments for attaching the computer thereto.

A safety device for a power stapler includes a pushing member movably received in a magazine of a power stapler. The pushing member has a protrusion extending from a top thereof and a block is fixedly connected to a side of the protrusion. A sliding member is slidably connected to the barrel of the power stapler and a recess defined in an end of the sliding member. When the last staple runs out, the block on the pushing member is engaged with the recess of the sliding member to stop the movement of the sliding member and the ejecting mechanism.

A power stapler includes a barrel with a cylinder received therein and a piston is movably received in the cylinder. An end cap is connected to the rear end of the barrel and a frame is movably engaged with the inside of the end cap. A seal part is engaged with an annular space in the outside of the frame and contacts the cylinder. A plurality of passages are defined through the frame and communicate with the annular space so that the seal part is securely positioned because the pressure in the passages is lower than the outside of the seal part. A fixed member is connected to the end cap and a pad is engaged with the fixed member. The pad has notches in the distal end thereof which contacts the piston so that air trapped between the pad and piston is released via the notches when the piston moves back to the original position after a shot.

An exhausted air dispensing device for a hydraulic power nailer includes a ring engaged with a flange extending from a recessed area defined in an end cap of the body of the nailer. The flange has a plurality of notches which communicate with a passage from which the exhausted air of the nailer flows. The flange has a plurality of blocks extending from the ring and located in alignment with the notches in the flange so that the speed of the exhausted air is reduced when the exhausted air blows against the blocks. A cover has an opening defined in a periphery of the cover which is rotatably engaged with the recessed area. A positioning pin biasedly extends from the end cap and the cover has a plurality of dents in the bottom thereof so that the positioning pin is engaged with one of the dents of the cover.

A resistor card for a potentiometer to measure the fuel in a fuel tank consists of a non-conductive substrate with a plurality of elongate conductive contacts deposited. The contacts have an elevation above the surface of the substrate and the contacts are oriented in parallel relationship to each other to form a wiper track across which a wiper is movable. To reduce the rate at which the upper surfaces of the contacts are worn away by movement of the wiper, a non-conductive filler is deposited between the conductive materials which form the lands.
