An apparatus for transferring articles such as absorbent cores or disposable diaper chassis components from a rotary mechanism, such as a pad turner, to a linear mechanism, such as a conveyor, for further processing. The invention provides a device for picking an article from the outside of a toroidal surface, thence extending transversely under tension the article to be transferred so that at the point of deposition the article is held flat and at full length. Further, the invention allows for apparatus to match the velocity of both the first and second transfer points, even if these velocities are not the same. The device is of particular benefit where an article to be transferred is subject to internally biasing elastic forces.

A method of negotiating a call capability between signalling points in a telecommunications system. The method comprises sending a capability preference or prioritised list of preferences from an originating signalling point to a terminating signalling point or signalling transfer point, at the Call Control level. A capability acceptance is returned from the terminating signalling point or signalling transfer point to the originating signalling point at the Call Control level, if the terminating signalling point or signalling transfer point accepts a preference sent by the originating signalling point.

A papermaking machine for making paper includes a forming section, a press section, and a drying section. The paper web is pressed between two press members while enclosed between a press felt and a transfer belt having non-uniformly distributed microscopic depressions in its surface, the web following the transfer belt from the press to a transfer point at which the web is transferred via a suction transfer device onto a structuring fabric, the web then being dried on a drying cylinder. The transfer point is spaced a distance D from the press nip selected based on machine speed, a basis weight of the web, and the surface characteristics of the transfer belt, such that within the distance D a thin water film between the web and the transfer belt at least partially dissipates to allow the web to be separated from the transfer belt.

A method for performing a handover in a mobile communications system of a Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS), wherein when a terminal having subscribed (joined) a point-to-multipoint service moves from a first base station to a second base station, the terminal is commanded (indicated) by the first base station to transfer point-to-multipoint service information, and then transfers to the second base station a point-to-multipoint service list subscribed (joined) by the terminal or information on the point-to-multipoint service received from the first base station, whereby a service delay which may occur during the handover can be effectively avoided.

Notably, the dosing system is configured to effect nitrogen injection close to or at the so-called transfer point of the capping machine, thus desirably abating nitrogen dissipation, and enhancing consistent and efficient product dosing.

The invention relates to a realization method in which a Relay support cellular system can effectively avoid the interference of uplink and downlink, and a device thereof as well as a solution which allows the interference of the uplink and the downlink to be introduced by the system due to coverage expansion. The invention is realized by a special design of a frame structure and the special design comprises a transmission order of four system links in the frame structure which are a downlink relay link L1, a downlink access link L2, an uplink access link L3 and an uplink relay link L4, and a guard space of a transfer point of the uplink and the downlink. When the transmission order of the four links of the frame structure is L1, L2, L3 and L4, a multiplying adjustment is processed on the required guard space of the transfer of the uplink and the downlink simultaneously allowing for path propagation delays between BS and RS as well as between RS and UE, namely offsetting the propagation delay between RS and UE; when the transmission order of the four links of the frame structure is L1, L2, L4 and L3, the guard space of the transfer of the uplink and the downlink only allows for the propagation delay between BS and RS while the propagation delay between RS and UE can be guarded by idle time which is caused by a sending to BS in advance from RS.

The invention provides a method and a system for implementing the flow sharing of multiple mobile terminal cards. The method concretely comprises the following steps: an additional data card platform is established; E. 214 route data are configured for an HSTP (high signaling transfer point), and a special IMSI (international mobile subscriber identity) number segment route for an additional data card is directed to the additional data card platform; the additional data card platform participates in the PS (packet switched) domain attachment process of the additional data card, so that the additional card generates Internet call tickets taking a main card MSISDN (mobile subscriber ISDN (integrated services digital network) number) and an additional card IMSI as identifiers in an SGSN (serving GPRS support node) and a GGSN (gateway GPRS (general packet radio service) support node); and after acquiring a billing center, the call tickets are combined through taking MSISDN as an identifier, so that the Internet call ticket of the additional card is merged into an account of the main card. According to the invention, through providing the additional data card platform, the flow sharing of multiple mobile terminal cards is implemented through the signaling exchange between the additional data card platform and a core network, no improvement on the core network, a BSS (base station subsystem) and a CRM system is required, the service processes of the existing BSS, SGSN (service GPRS supporting node) and CRM and the like are not affected, and no influence is caused on an operator network, thereby realizing the inter-flow sharing of 3G main number packages.

Groceries ordered over the Internet by a particular time in the early evening may be delivered by the next morning to a location within a 5-6 hour delivery radius of a warehouse. The grocery order is filled at the warehouse, where the groceries are placed in a tote for delivery. If perishable groceries are to be delivered, a frozen insert is placed in the tote to maintain the groceries at a desired temperature. The filled tote is placed on a rack, which is removable with the tote on it. The racks have shelves that are pitched such that when a first tote is removed a second tote behind the first tote falls into the space previously occupied by the first tote. In the early evening, after the cutoff time for placing orders, the rack and totes on the rack are transferred to a first vehicle, typically a large trailer, that transports the rack and totes to a transfer point where the rack and the accompanying bill of lading are transferred to a second smaller vehicle, such as a van. The van delivers the totes to customers along a pre-established route. Upon reaching a delivery destination (usually a customer's home) by early the next morning, the van driver removes the tote for that customer from the van and secures it in a locked expandable bag, such as a mesh net or insulated bag, that may be locked in two places and that is itself secured to a grocery box. The grocery box, which is supplied to the customer by the business selling the groceries, is secured outside the delivery destination. The customer removes the tote from the bag, removes the groceries from the tote, and returns the used tote to the bas for later pickup by the van.

The invention provides a method and a system for selectively delivering information to callers in an AIN environment. In accordance with the method the service switching point to which is connected the terminal equipment of the caller monitors the condition of the telephone line to detect an AIN trigger, such as an off-hook event among other possibilities. When such event occurs, the service switch point formulates a message query. The query is routed to a service control point via one or more service transfer points, that holds knowledge of the service subscribed by the caller and the information to be displayed for this service. The service control point analyzes the request and assembles the appropriate response. That response is then returned to the service switch point that formats it properly and delivers it to the terminal equipment of the caller. In one embodiment the information delivery is effected during call establishment. In a variant, information is delivered while no call is being attempted.

An intelligent network in which the service switching points (SSPs) consult a lookup table for services which require the use of a service control point (SCP), and send respective request messages containing a service type field. If such a service is one which can be handled by an SCP whose LAN (for the intercommunication of its various data processors) has become partitioned because of, say, a LAN fault, the SSP writes a first value for service type into the field, and if the service is one which must not be handled by a partitioned SCP, the SSP writes a second value. The request messages are sent via service transfer points (STPs). The network includes a transmission controller which has first and second states. Any SCP which detects that its LAN has become partitioned commands the transmission controller to enter the second state. In the first state the transmission controller is transparent to all messages regardless of the contents of the service type field, but in the second state it does not pass requests of the second service type. In one embodiment, each STP is integrally constructed with a respective transmission controller. In another embodiment, each SCP includes one or more respective transmission controller disposed at the junction of its signalling servers and the signalling link from the STP.

The system is featured as the follows. At least one short message gateway is connected to two or above two signaling transfer points of mobile network as well as to two or above two short message centres. It can be made a spare gateway for some other short message centre gateway since the short message centre gateway is connected with above one signaling transfer points so that chaining to be switched to preset backup short message centre can be ensured by utilizing global code address varying function when certain short message centre signaling gateway if fault. The same as above, short message can be retransmitted to spare short message centre for processing when certain short message centre is fault since short message gate way is also connected with spare short message centre in addition to its mainly used short message centre.
