Abstract:
A portable electronic apparatus arranged to be able to perform a plurality of functions, one or more of a plurality of functions being selectively performable when the apparatus is placed in a corresponding functional mode, the apparatus having a user interface to allow user operation of the plurality of functions, each of the functions being user operable using a particular region of the electronic apparatus user interface, the apparatus comprising a user moveable cover arranged to be moveable into a plurality of positions, wherein each of the cover positions is associated with a particular functional mode of the apparatus and is arranged to cover one or more regions of the user interface not associated with the particular functional mode and to reveal one or more regions of the user interface associated with the particular functional mode.
Abstract:
Serialization is disclosed. It is detected if a component included in a graph of components associated with a user session on a first system has not changed since a prior serialization to a second system. A token is sent to the second system during a current serialization, instead of the component, indicating the component has not changed since the prior serialization. De-serialization is disclosed. a token is received at a first system from a second system, in a stream of serialized data from the second system, that indicates that a component on the second system has not changed since a prior serialization. A cached version of the component is retrieved. The cached copy is used to reconstruct on the second system a state of a user session with which the component is associated on the second system.
Abstract:
A method and system of performing high-throughput identifications of broadcast content is provided. A device can send a content identification query, which includes a sample of content being broadcast, to a server to request an identity of the content. The server will perform a computational identification of the content, return the result to the device, and store the result. For all subsequently received content identification queries requesting an identity of content being broadcast from the same source and in a time during which the content is still being broadcast from the source, the server will send the stored content identification in response to the subsequent queries. If a subsequent content identification query does not request the identity of content being broadcast from the same source or is not received during the time that the content is still being broadcast, the server will perform a computational identification of a content sample.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a connector 1 comprising contact pins 3 and 3A having a contact part on a tip end thereof and a wire connection part on a rear end thereof, and a connector housing 4 having a receiving hole 5 for receiving therein the contact pins 3 and 3A and wires W. The connector 1 also includes a bridge type connection member 22 including a connection blade 23 which includes first and second contact parts 23a and 23b connected to each other via a junction piece 23c. The bridge type connection member 22 is pushed into the receiving hole 5 with the contact pins 3 and 3A and the wires W being received in the receiving hole 5, thereby connecting the connection parts of the contact pins 3 and 3A to core wires of the wires via the first and second contact parts 23a and 23b. This can provide a connector for easily connecting wires having various sizes and various types of contact pins without using a special tool.
Abstract:
A lancet activating device comprising a housing (3) which houses a reciprocating spring-loaded plunger (17), serving as a trigger to activate a lancet (26); cavity (5,6) for placements of a lancet (26) and a finger (23); apertures (9, 7) for the insertion of said lancet and said finger; leaf-spring (10) to position a finger (23). An unactivated fresh lancet (26) is inserted into the cavity (6) of the lancet activating device and the patient's finger (23) is placed into the cavity (5), whereby the finger positioning will be determined by the leaf-spring (10). At a press of the top mounted reciprocating plunger (17), the lancet (26) is activated to puncture the finger (23) and the patient proceeds to withdraw his finger and collection of the micro blood sample can proceed. Thereafter a fresh lancet (26) can be inserted into the cavity (6) of the lancet activating device from the lancet insertion aperture (9). The fresh lancet (26) forces the used lancet (27) out of the lancet activating device via the lancet disposition aperture (8) where it will be transited to an attached container (2) via an access opening (16) located at the top of the container (2). Throughout the procedure, the users of said lancet activating device do not need to come into contact with the patient.
Abstract:
A mould for encapsulating an integrated circuit package on a leadframe including a top mould-half and a complementary bottom mould-half enclosing a cavity for encapsulating said package wherein structures are provided on at least one of said mould-halves which, upon the closure of said mould-halves, closes off the spaces between adjacent leads of the leadframe to allow only said leads to extend out of said cavity. The structures may be protrusions from the mould half closing off the spaces. Notches or slots cut to allow the leads' extension are the preferred structures due to ease of machining. The mould design thus enables a leadframe package to be moulded with a peripheral flange as narrow as desired without the need to cut a broad conventional flange formed up to the dam bar because only the leads and tie bars are left to be singulated. A method for making the above mould as well as singulation methods for cutting and punching the leads and tie bars is also disclosed.
