| 20090080456 | Token passing data transfer mechanism for reservation based protocols - Establishing communication between a first device and a second device participating in a reservation based communication protocol over a communication network and sharing the reservation to allow for data to be transmitted from both devices during the reservation. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20090147829 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DYNAMICALLY CHANGING AUDIO STREAM BIT RATE BASED ON CONDITION OF A BLUETOOTH.RTM. CONNECTION - A method for communication is disclosed and may include dynamically changing the bit-rate of an audio and/or video stream communicated over a Bluetooth connection based on conditions of the Bluetooth connection. A rate at which corresponding audio and/or video samples, for said audio and/or video stream, are encoded for communication via the Bluetooth connection, may be based on Bluetooth piconet event information. The bit-rate of the audio and/or video stream may be dynamically adjusting based on bandwidth of the Bluetooth connection. The bit-rate of the audio and/or video stream may be dynamically increased based on bandwidth of the Bluetooth connection. The bit-rate of the audio and/or video stream may be dynamically decreased based on bandwidth of the Bluetooth connection. The audio and/or video samples may be encoded utilizing a variable bit rate. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20090176452 | MECHANISM FOR IMPROVED INTEROPERABILITY WHEN CONTENT PROTECTION IS USED WITH AN AUDIO STREAM - A method and system that configure communication between devices in a network utilizing bluetooth technology, where one device may or may not support content protection, and another device may or may not support content protection. A first device may utilize a configuration that enables data communication via a bluetooth communication link with a second device based on whether the second device supports content protection. The content protected data communicated between the devices is based on the first device configuration. If the second device does not support content protection, the first device may utilize a configuration that does not require content protection for communicating data with the second device. If the second device supports content protection, the first device may utilize a configuration that requires content protection for communicating data. If data communication utilizing content protection fails, one or both of the devices may revert to a configuration that does not require content protection. | 07-09-2009 |

| 20090219708 | LIGHTED FITTINGS FOR BATHING INSTALLATIONS - A fixture for through hole mounting to a panel includes a flange structure fabricated of a translucent material. The flange structure includes a body portion adapted to extend through a mount hole in the panel and having a outer peripheral portion, and a transverse flange portion having an outer size larger than the hole opening. A periphery flange portion overlaps the panel surrounding the hole when the flange structure is installed in the panel hole. A light source attachment portion is configured to direct light emitted from a light source into the body portion of the flange structure, so that at least some of the emitted light passes into the flange portion to illuminate the flange portion. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20100126613 | DIVERTER VALVE - An exemplary embodiment of a diverter valve system includes a valve body defining an internal chamber having at least first, second and third ports, and a first valve seat associated with the first port and a second valve seat associated with the second port. A valve shaft structure includes an internal shaft portion positioned within the internal chamber, the valve shaft structure configured for rotation about a valve axis through a range of motion. A diverter structure includes a diverter face portion configured to seat against the first valve seat when in a first rotational position and against the second valve seat when in a second position, and a mounting portion configured to mount on the internal shaft portion of the valve shaft structure | 05-27-2010 |
| 20100146696 | SUCTION FITTING FOR BATHING INSTALLATIONS - A suction fitting assembly for a bathing installation includes a cover with a pattern of orifices, a wall fitting, and an adapter structure. The wall fitting is configured for insertion through a hole in a wall of a bathing water receptacle, and may be secured in place with a locking nut. The cover is fastened to the wall fitting on the bather side of the wall. A suction adapter structure is connected to the wall fitting. A function of the suction adaptor structure is to admit air through an air tube from the atmosphere to the suction line during a blocked condition, rendering pump operation ineffective. | 06-17-2010 |
