摘要:
Disclosed is a method (200) for charging energy storage devices. The method (200) can include a battery charging method in a power supply client connected by a data bus to a power supply host. The method (200) includes the steps of: detecting (210) a state of the power supply host; determining (220) a limit of current from the host to the client; allocating (230) a portion of the limit to a battery charging current; and charging (240) a battery of the client at the battery charging current such that the current from the host is greater than a recommended limit and less than or equal to the determined amount. Thus a client device can confidently charge at a rate which causes the port current to exceed a recommended limit, such as a USB port limit of 500 mA, when allowed by conditions of the host device. Advantageously, the method can help to expedite the charging time of a client battery, notwithstanding the number of other clients connected to the same host device for charging, thus minimizing the wait time of a user.

摘要:
A communication system and method are disclosed for transmitting packets of information in at least one first format over a communications link that utilizes packets of information in a second format. In certain embodiments, the packets of information in a first format are converted to packets of information in the second format prior to transmission via the communications link by packing and fragmenting the information in the first format in a coordinated manner. Embodiments may also utilize packing subheaders and fragmentation control bits in the packing and fragmentation processes.

Lightweight gypsum wallboard produced by continuously combining a small amount of surface active agent with a liquid stream, which stream is made up of substantially all of the water to be used in the manufacture of a continuous web of gypsum wallboard, passing this mixture through a long cylindrical static mixing tube filled with one inch ceramic saddles, while adding a controlled quantity of air thereto, then passing the mixture through a shorter cylindrical static mixing tube of equal diameter filled with 3/8 inch ceramic Raschig rings, forming a uniformly dispersed foam of very small bubbles from the liquid by completely generating all of the surface active agent therein to form this foam, and mixing this foamed liquid with finely ground dry calcined gypsum in a suitable mixing device to form a foamed settable gypsum slurry, disposing the slurry between paper cover sheets, and forming a continuous web of gypsum wallboard.

A litter material, and the method of manufacture thereof, for deodorizing and absorbing the excreta from animals, and particularly, pet animals. The litter contains a mixture of dried citrus pulp bits and fines of specified sizes which coat the animal feces and absorb urine, respectively. The residual acids and sugars left in the dried pulp serve to neutralize the odor of the excreta.

This invention pertains to means for trimming tree branches. Spaced cutting collars with sharp teeth at one end are crimped upon a flexible cable. Lead weights, sand bags, etc., are attached to and carry the flexible cutting cable into position over the branch to be cut. The cable and cutting collars are oscillated to saw the branch.

This invention pertains to means for and a method of trimming branches of trees and particularly branches high above the ground, by means of spaced cutting collars with sharp teeth at one end crimped upon a flexible cable, without using a pole saw, climbing the tree, or using a ladder. Means are also provided in the form of lead weights, sand bags, etc., to carry the flexible cutting table into position over the branch desired to be cut.
摘要:
Methods are described for producing novel shaped objects drawn from sheet metal blanks having a surface design in one or more decorative metals of contrasting color. The design is applied to the flat metal blank with distortions which substantially compensate for the metal deformation in forming the object from the blank.

摘要:
Automated software loading into a battery-less mobile phone is accomplished through attachment of a special non-standard USB On-The-Go cable to a serial connector of the mobile phone, thereby delivering power supply and unique signals for placing the phone in a special mode of operation used for production or distribution. In operation, when a unique non-standard voltage is asserted on the identification (ID) pin of the USB connector interface, it is detected by special circuitry in the serial connector. The circuitry then enables power supply to the battery-less phone and generates a turn-on signal directing the mobile phone to automatically power-on and enter into a particular state of operation, for example a test or software loading mode. Because this process is automatic, the efficiency of software loading or testing during production or distribution of the mobile device is improved.
