Appl. No.:

10/835758

Inventors:

Daniel Lam - Cupertino CA, US

International Classification:

A41D 27/22

US Classification:

223 94

Abstract:

A foldable and self-opening hanger has two arms that fold down to a closed position away from the hanger's hook member with adjacent bottom arm edges proximal to each other. The arms are closed manually in opposition to a restoring force provided by an internal resilient member that tends to move the arms away from each other toward an open position suitable for hanging light garments such as shirts and blouses that exert opposing forces on the arms less than restoring force provided by the internal resilient member. For heavier garments, a lock-release mechanism is provided that holds the arms in a fully open-locked position that supports coats, heavy sweaters and the like. A pair of release buttons on opposite sides of the hanger release the lock-release mechanism allowing arms to be folded manually to the fully closed position so the hanger may be inserted into the neck of a garment without opening buttons or zippers. The arms then can be released from the closed position by merely letting go of them and allowing the resilient member to spread the arms open to support the garment to be hung.

International Classification:

G01R 31/02
G01R 31/28

US Classification:

324755, 324765

Abstract:

High port-to-port RF isolation for a test socket in a production RF test environment is achieved by establishing a coaxial-type connection between the test socket and the device under test (DUT). This coaxial-type connection results by at least partially surrounding each port of the DUT with a ground seal connected to RF ground connection. In one embodiment, the ground seal is a metallic base plate of the test socket which surrounds the RF connection to the DUT.

US Classification:

726 8

Abstract:

Systems and methods are disclosed for providing automated user authentication utilizing available authentication data associated with a computing device. By utilizing a mobile identification number verified during an authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) process performed when a mobile computing device is powered on, access to a privileged content or service may be granted, allowing a user to bypass manual entry of user authentication information (user ID and password). Utilizing a verified mobile identification number, service features and functionalities may be communicated between billing systems of a service provider, which may provide for further converged, customized services.

International Classification:

G06F 19/00

US Classification:

705003000, 715507000

Abstract:

A method and apparatus are provided for creating a referral network for member physicians utilizing the Internet. The referral network provides its members an organized and efficient system for generating and storing patient referrals. To become a member of the referral network, a physician registers with the referral network web site. A member physician generates a patient referral document using referral network software on the referral network web site. The patient referral document is sent to another physician to refer a patient to the physician. If the recipient physician is not a member of the referral network, the patient referral document includes a promotion for the referral network to induce the physician receiving the referral document to become a member of the referral network.

US Classification:

505 1

Abstract:

A superconductor consisting of a sufficiently pure phase of the oxides of Bi, Sr, Ca, and Cu to exhibit a resistive zero near 110K resulting from the process of forming a mixture of Bi. sub. 2 O. sub. 3, SrCO. sub. 3, CaCO. sub. 3 and CuO into aparticulate compact wherein the atom ratios are Bi. sub. 2, Sr. sub. 1. 2-2. 2, Ca. sub. 1. 8-2. 4, Cu. sub. 3. Thereafter, heating the particulate compact rapidly in the presence of oxygen to an elevated temperature near the melting point of the oxides to form a sintered compact, and then maintaining the sintered compact at the elevated temperature for a prolonged period of time. The sintered compact is cooled and reground. Thereafter, the reground particulate material is compacted and heated in the presence of oxygen to an elevated temperature near the melting point of the oxide and maintained at the elevated temperature for a time sufficient to provide a sufficiently pure phase to exhibit a resistive zero near 110K.

Abstract:

Systems and methods are described include a robot and/or an associated computing system that can use various cues about an environment of the robot to apply a bias to increase the accuracy of speech transcription. In some implementations, audio data corresponding to a spoken instruction to a robot is received. Candidate transcriptions of the audio data are obtained. A respective action of the robot corresponding to each of the candidate transcriptions of the audio data is determined. One or more scores indicating characteristics of a potential outcome of performing the respective action corresponding to the candidate transcription of the audio data are determined for each of the candidate transcriptions of the audio data. A particular candidate transcription is selected from among the candidate transcriptions based at least on the one or more scores. The action determined for the particular candidate transcription is performed.
