A system and method are provided for separately distributing edge-device labels and routing information across routing areas of a computer network. Because the edge-device labels are distributed separately from network routing information, the process of distributing the edge-device labels does not preclude conventional edge-device address summarizations. Illustratively, a novel “label mapping” LSA is employed for distributing the edge-device labels across routing areas. The label-mapping LSA may be embodied as an area-scope OSPF opaque LSA (type 10) or an IS-IS LSP containing TLVs of area scope. Advantageously, the present invention is generally applicable whenever label values are allocated to edge devices in a multi-area computer network and data is “tunneled” through the network from one edge device to another.

The fence is easily dismantled in all or part for repair, painting, or moving to another location. Wind rotated pickets are also described.

The present invention provides an improved design for turbomachinery, such as blowers and compressors, for providing pressurized process gas. The improved design comprises two housing portions that fit together to form an interior cavity in which a preassembled rotating assembly may be installed and balanced. Each housing portion includes an interior compartment designed and shaped to correspond to desired positions of components of the rotating assembly. After the preassembled rotating assembly is seated within the interior compartment of the lower housing portion and balanced, the upper housing portion can be fitted to the lower housing portion to complete the machine housing and encompass and hold the rotating assembly in place without the need to remove or disassemble the rotating assembly. A collector cover can thereafter be attached to the assembled machine housing to enclose an impeller operatively mounted on a rotating shaft of the rotating assembly.

A tool for driving and setting nail-pin anchors and anchor bolts into concrete, the tool using the percussive action of a rotary hammer drill. The tool comprises a body member with a spring, a driver, and a ram inserted into the body member's bore. After a hole is drilled for insertion of the anchor, the masonry drill bit of the rotary hammer drill is slid inside the bore of the ram and temporarily locked to the tool. The rotary hammer drill is activated, and the drill bit turns inside the ram without affecting the body member or the anchor. Instead, the percussive force of the rotary hammer drill transfers its impact to the ram and the driver, which impacts the nail of the nail-pin anchor, or the stem of the anchor bolt, setting it into the concrete. A keyed bearing can be installed inside a sleeve of the ram in order to protect the tip of the masonry drill bit from shearing.

An electronic compressed air system for vehicles includes a compressed air supply part having a compressor, a compressed air consumer part having load circuits forming an air-suspension circuit, and service-brake circuits having reservoirs.

The solenoid valve of the air-suspension circuit does not include reservoirs and is closed in the de-energized normal state. The solenoid valves of other load circuits, especially of the service-brake circuits are open in the de-energized normal state. With a pressure demand of the air-suspension circuit, the associated solenoid valve is switched by the ECU to open position to establish communication with the compressed air supply part and / or with the service-brake circuits or with the reservoirs thereof, to refill the air-suspension circuit.
