| 20100203888 | Data-Capable Network Prioritization With Reject Code Handling - Reject code handling is utilized for a more time-efficient selection of data-capable networks. One illustrative method for use in selecting a wireless communication network for communications involves the steps of selecting a first wireless network available for communications with the mobile station; causing a request for data connectivity to be transmitted to the first wireless network selected; if a rejection is received from the first wireless network in response to the request for data connectivity: reattempting the request for data connectivity to the first wireless network at least one time; selecting a second wireless network available for communications with the mobile station after the request for data connectivity to the first wireless network is reattempted the at least one time without success; and selecting the second wireless network available for communications with the mobile station without reattempting the request for data connectivity to the first wireless network the at least one time if a reject code associated with the rejection indicates that data services are not allowed in the first network is received from the first wireless network in response to the request for data connectivity. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20110021190 | Network Selection Methods And Apparatus With Home Network Prioritization After Network Signal Recovery Or Power-On - A network selection method for a mobile station which is associated with a Home Public Land Mobile Network (HPLMN) identified by a home Mobile Network Code (MNC) and Mobile Country Code (MCC) pair. The mobile station identifies a plurality of PLMNs in a geographic area, and selects a non-home PLMN identified by a non-home MNC/MCC pair and designated as a Registered PLMN (RPLMN). In response to regaining signal coverage from an out-of-coverage condition with the RPLMN, or being powered-on from a power-off state entered while operating with the RPLMN, the mobile station selects the HPLMN if the HPLMN identified by the home MNC/MCC pair is available. Otherwise, if the HPLMN is unavailable and the RPLMN identified by the non-home MNC/MCC pair is available, the mobile station selects the RPLMN. However, if the RPLMN is unavailable, the mobile station selects an alternate PLMN in accordance with an automatic or manual network selection method. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110134815 | DATA-CAPABLE NETWORK PRIORITIZATION WITH REDUCED DELAYS IN DATA SERVICE - In one illustrative method, a method in a mobile station for use in reducing delays for data communications is described. The mobile station causes a request for packet data service to be sent to a wireless communication network. If the request for the packet data service is denied in response to the request, then the mobile station is set in a deregistered state. In addition, the mobile station initializes a timer with an initial value that is less than a periodic location update timer value which is broadcasted by the wireless communication network, and runs the timer. In response to an expiration of the timer, the mobile station causes another request for the packet data service to be sent to the wireless communication network. | 06-09-2011 |

| 20090188505 | RESPIRATORY MASK ASSEMBLY - A flow regulation vent for venting washout gas to atmosphere and for regulating flow from a pressurized gas supply includes a fixed portion adapted to engage a gas supply conduit; a spring force biased movable portion structured for flowing communication with the pressurized gas supply; and a hinge pivotally connecting the movable portion to the fixed portion. The fixed portion has a gas flow orifice and the movable portion is pivotally movable between 1) a relaxed position, wherein below a specified operating pressure, the movable portion is pivoted by the spring force to a position away from the fixed portion to establish a first gas washout flow area between the movable portion and the gas flow orifice, and 2) a fully pressurized position. At or above the specified operating pressure, the pressurized gas offsets the spring force to pivot the movable portion to a position adjacent the fixed portion to cover at least a portion of the gas flow orifice and establish a second gas washout flow area between the movable portion and the gas flow orifice. The second gas washout flow area is less than the first gas washout flow area. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20100000543 | Mask and components thereof - A comfortable low-leak mask assembly for use with Non-Invasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) is provided to improve patient compliance and/or treatment. The mask system may include headgear having straps that are substantially inextensible and/or micro-adjustable; and/or a mask and/or cushion that includes various structures to allow enhanced/tailored sealing and/or fit at selected locations on the patient's face. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20100132717 | COMPACT ORONASAL PATIENT INTERFACE - A breathing arrangement includes a patient interface, at least one inlet conduit, and a headgear assembly. The patient interface includes a mouth covering assembly including a cushion structured to sealingly engage around exterior of a patient's mouth in use, a nozzle assembly including a pair of nozzles structured to sealingly engage within nasal passages of a patient's nose in use, and an element connecting the mouth covering assembly and the nozzle assembly. The at least one inlet conduit is structured to deliver breathable gas into at least one of the mouth covering assembly and the nozzle assembly for breathing by the patient. The headgear assembly is removably connected to at least one of the mouth covering assembly and the nozzle assembly so as to maintain the mouth covering assembly and the nozzle assembly in a desired position on the patient's face. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20110000491 | Mask with integral cushion and forehead piece - A respiratory mask has an adjustable forehead support member that is simple and inexpensive to manufacture. The forehead support member may be adjusted by rotating a forehead pad about an off-center bore or by bending an angular adjustment beam. The mask has a mask cushion with an accordionate membrane having at least two hinged portions. The mask may be constructed with a mask frame, the mask cushion, and the forehead support member molded as one piece. | 01-06-2011 |
