| 20110173802 | CRIMPING TOOL - A crimping tool for crimping an electrical contact toward engagement with an electrical conductor, including a housing, a pair of crimping dies, a die support arrangement supporting a first one of the crimping dies in a stationary position on said housing, and a displacing mechanism for displacing the other crimping die between open and closed positions relative to the stationary crimping die. The displacing mechanism includes a rotary drive shaft, a crimping arm having a first end portion connected with the movable crimping die member, and a rotary-to-reciprocatory motion converting mechanism adjacent the other end of the crimping arm for transforming the rotary motion of the drive shaft to a reciprocatory motion of the crimping arm, thereby to displace the movable crimping die between the open and closed positions. | 07-21-2011 |

| 20100313402 | TOOL FOR PROCESSING LIGHT WAVE CONDUCTORS - A hand tool is operable to crimp a tubular metal contact member concentrically about the stripped end portion of an insulated fiber optic light-wave conductor in spaced relation to the free end extremity thereof. A tensioning arrangement tensions the excess portion of the conductor that extends beyond the contact member, whereupon a cutting device engages the tensioned portion of the conductor to sever cleanly the excess extremity from the conductor. The tensioning arrangement serves to deflect the conductor excess end portion obliquely outwardly relative to the longitudinal axis of the conductor. Tensioning is achieved by a deflecting disk positioned normal to the longitudinal axis of the light-wave conductor, or by a guide bore contained in a conductor guide device attached to the tool body. Preferably, two contact members are simultaneously crimped on a pair of conductors, and the excess ends of the conductors are simultaneously tensioned and severed. | 12-16-2010 |
| 20110219626 | DRILL ATTACHMENT - A drill cutting attachment for severing an electrical conductor includes a housing, a stationary cutting blade connected with the housing, a movable cutting blade pivotally connected with the stationary cutting blade for displacement about a given cutting pivot axis between open and closed positions relative to the stationary cutting blade, and a pawl and ratchet arrangement for displacing the movable cutting blade from the open position toward the closed position, thereby to sever an electrical conductor positioned between the blades. The pawl and ratchet arrangement includes a transport pawl member that is longitudinally reciprocated by a rotary drive shaft via either an eccentric and crank arm drive arrangement, or a cam and follower drive arrangement. The drive shaft has a free end with a hexagonal cross-sectional configuration for connection with the chuck of an electric drill, and an attachment sleeve connects the housing with the electric drill body. | 09-15-2011 |
| 20110252633 | Hand-Operated Crimping Tool - A monitoring device for monitoring the operation of a hand-held pliers-type crimping tool, including a pair of pivotally connected handles for displacing a pair of crimping dies between open and closed crimping positions, a support seat connected with one of the handles for supporting at least one plug terminal between the crimping dies, a transport tool for transporting a plug terminal to a seated position on the support seat, and a counter arrangement on the transport tool for producing a signal that is a function of the number of displacements of the handles from the open position toward the closed position. The transport tool includes a housing, an electronic circuit including a counter mounted in the housing, a transport pin extending from the housing for insertion within one end of a hollow plug terminal, and a signal transmitting pin parallel with the transport pin. | 10-20-2011 |

| 20080209087 | Method and Apparatus for Transferring Data from a Memory Subsystem to a Network Adapter by Extending Data Lengths to Improve the Memory Subsystem and PCI Bus Efficiency - A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for transferring data from a memory to a network adapter in a data processing system. The frame size for a transfer of the data from the memory to the network adapter is identified. If the frame size is divisible by a cache line size without a remainder, a valid data length is set equal to the length field. However, if the frame size divided by the cache line size results in a remainder, the length field is set to align the data with the cache line size. The data transfer is then initiated using these fields. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080225724 | Method and Apparatus for Improved Data Transmission Through a Data Connection - A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable code for receiving data from a sender across a network connection for the data transfer. An expected size for a congestion window for the sender is identified. An amount of the data received from the sender is tracked. An acknowledgment is sent in response to the amount of data received from the sender meet in the expected size of the congestion window for the sender. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080244084 | Method for improved network performance using smart maximum segment size - A method, system, and computer program product for negotiating a smart maximum segment size of a network connection for a data transfer. A client request to initiate a network connection, which includes a first maximum segment size, is received at a server. The server calculates a second maximum segment size, wherein at least one of the first maximum segment size or the second maximum segment size is a cache line size aligned Ethernet frame size, or smart maximum segment size. The server determines the smaller of the first and second maximum segment sizes and sends the second maximum segment size to the client. The client then selects the smaller of the first and second maximum segment sizes, and sends an acknowledgement to the server to complete the connection. The smaller of the first and second maximum segment sizes is used for the network connection and subsequent data transfer. | 10-02-2008 |

| 20110283235 | RESULT-ORIENTED CONFIGURATION OF PERFORMANCE PARAMETERS - A plurality of configuration parameters for setting a device are determined by setting one or more performance parameters. The performance parameters are end-results of configuration that a user desires to achieve by setting the configuration parameters on a device. By setting the performance parameters instead of multiple configuration parameters, the user can conveniently achieve desired performance on the device without having to try many combinations of configuration parameters. When the user sets a performance parameter value, a set of configuration parameters corresponding to the performance value is computed or retrieved. The performance parameters may be set using a user interface element such as a slider that is intuitive and easy to manipulate. | 11-17-2011 |

| 20110071921 | DISTRIBUTED ELECTRONIC COMMERCE SYSTEM WITH CENTRALIZED POINT OF PURCHASE - An electronic commerce system includes a broker that enables customers to purchase items from merchants. A customer interacts with the merchant to identify items to purchase, and the merchant directs the customer to the broker in order to complete the transaction. The broker receives a description of a virtual shopping cart generated by the merchant and presents the customer with an interface allowing the customer to select shipping and other options for the purchase. The broker calculates a total amount for the transaction based on the shopping cart description and the options selected by the customer. The broker informs the merchant of the purchase and coordinates the shipment of the purchased items from the merchant to the customer. | 03-24-2011 |
