The invention relates to a method for seamless handover of mobile devices in heterogeneous networks. A mobile device (10) is moved between different topological network locations (30/31/32/33) and transmits and/or receives data by means of different network access technologies without the data transfer between a Client IP application (11), running on the mobile device (10), and a Server IP application (21) being interrupted, wherein the Client IP application (11) of the mobile device (10) makes a request with first data units to a client-service module (12), wherein the client service module (12) creates second data units based on the received first data units and makes a request to a server-service module (22) with the second data units, wherein the server-service module (22) creates third data units based on the received second data units and makes a request to the Server IP application (21) with the third data units to handle the data exchange between the Client IP application (11) and the Server IP application (21).

A discharge unit for an animal feeder attaches to the feed outlet of the feeder. The discharge unit has an upwardly extending coupling tube which engages the feeder outlet. Several feeder tubes extend outwardly from the lower end of the coupling tube and together with the lower end of the coupling tube define a central chamber of the discharge unit. A spreader cone is located within a floor region of the central chamber. Feed passing from the feed outlet of the feeder passes through the internal diameter of the coupling tube of the discharge unit and over the spreader cone before passing through the central chamber and through the feeder tubes to be discharged from the feeder.

The invention relates to an adjustable impression tray (1) comprising a trough (2) in the form of an arch with a straight central portion (7) extended by two lateral branches (8,9), essentially matching the form of a dental arch and comprising several integral zones which may be deformed at the temperature of use in the form of a multi-directional extension means (12), for example an accordion-like bellows arrangement (13 to 16). The impression tray, preferably for single usage, advantageously comprises splitting zones (17, 18) which allow the production of impression trays of differing sectors, which by comprising one or several deformation zones are equally adjustable. The invention is of interest to dentists and prosthetic dentists and more generally to producers and users of dental equipment.

A device and method of operation for filling medicine capsules, in which a fixed quantity of open capsules to be filled are supported in a circular array by a holder plate beneath the periphery of a rotatable distribution drum. In use, a measured supply of filling medication, in dry granular form, is dispensed into the center of the rotating drum where it is distributed evenly by centrifugal force along the periphery of the drum. As the drum stops rotating, the medication flows by gravity into the capsules, which are then inspected, closed and packaged. The distribution of filler material is more even than if the capsules were filled by hand, and the average quantity (both by volume and by weight) of the filling material per capsule in the batch is variable to suit an individual patient's needs, and very accurately known. In addition, two or more compatible filler medications may be mixed in the same capsules to suit the specialized needs of a particular user. Because the provided quantity of medication is completely distributed into each batch of capsules, inadvertent double-filling is prevented.

A universal projector interface including a mount interface portion with a plurality of elongate arm assemblies coupled thereto. Each arm assembly is selectively rotatable and translatable relative to the mount interface, and includes a coupling portion.

A training weapon which is quickly and easilyassembled from a standard weapon without requiring any physical modification (alteration) of any component of the standard weapon. A few components of the standard weapon are removed and replaced by components of the invention. This replacement does not exceed skill level beyond a standard field-strip procedure of the particular weapon. Action of the training weapon is of the same character as the action of the standard weapon, while developing trainee's responses to the substitute firing action, and at the same time improving trainee's skill, all without the use of live ammunition. Installed components include means of cycling the the weapon's mechanism thus simulating recoil using compressed gas, optional laser pointer activating a target, and a replacement magazine including source of electricity and an electronic control circuit and operable with a gas passage unit. Weapon's original trigger mechanism remains unchanged and is utilized to initiate the substitute firing cycle.

The present invention relates to systems and methods that facilitate wireless device communications and configuration. A detection component identifies N devices that are coupled together via a biological medium, N being an integer, wherein the medium includes direct or indirect touching to a device or devices. After biological contact, a configuration component initiates a configuration between a subset of the devices. Although configurations and/or other communications can be conducted through a medium such as the human body, the present invention can employ an initial touch to identify respective devices whereby other electronic configuration sequences commence without further device contact. Other aspects include chain touching between users and/or devices to facilitate contact between the devices. Location detection components can also be provided to identify when users are present near a device, the detected presence to commence further automated procedures, and/or the location detection components can enable devices to identify other devices in a crowded wireless environment.

Each one of a set of substitutable paintball magazines of different capacities can be quickly mounted on a universal coupling base plugged into the projectile feeding port of a paintball marker.

The set of magazines offers a convenient selection of loading capacities to accommodate a variety of game circumstances and environments.

The invention relates to a container yoke (1) for lifting of at least one container (5), comprising a base frame (2), two travelling beams (3a,b), which are telescopically displaceable in the base frame (2) and on whose outer end portions are arranged transverse beams (6a,b) provided with locking members (8), so called twist locks, for engagement in, and locking to, the corner boxes of a container (5). The invention is realized by virtue of the fact that cables (11a,b) are arranged to displace a respective travelling beam (3a,b) into the desired position in the frame (2) of the container yoke, that the cables (11a,b), for displacement of a travelling beam (3a,b), are simultaneously reeled up and unreeled with the aid of one and the same cable drum (10b), that both cable drums (10a,b) of the container yoke (1) are driven by a common actuator (4), and that the cables (11a,b) are fastened in the end portion of a respective travelling beam (3a,b) via spring-loaded cable tensioners (15a,b).

A vacuum cleaner conversion system utilizes a container or receptacle with an open top. A cover unit is configured to be positioned over the top of the receptacle and to be clamped to the receptacle to form a watertight connection. A first conduit extends through the cover unit. The conduit has an upper section extending above the cover and a lower section extending below the cover and into the receptacle. The lower section is totally enclosed at its lowermost end, but has an opening extending through its side surface. A second conduit extends through the cover. The second conduit has an upper section extending above the cover and a lower section extending below the cover and into the receptacle. The second conduit is open at its lowermost end. The first conduit has a connector providing an airtight connection between the conduit and a hose connected to a stand-up vacuum.
