| 20110132627 | RESILIENTLY MOUNTED AGRICULTURAL TOOL AND IMPLEMENT THEREWITH - Disclosed are mounting means for agricultural tools, for example tillage assemblies, that comprise a resilient element and a horizontal pivot axis. This allows upward and rearward deflection of a tillage blade of the assembly in response to impact with obstacles. Tillage implements comprising the foregoing assemblies are also disclosed. In certain embodiments, the assemblies advantageously allow lateral deflection of at least a support arm of the assembly in response to impact with obstacles, which may be enhanced by providing a pivot means of the assembly with a resilient bushing. The resilient element and/or the resilient bushing may comprise elastomeric materials. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20110132628 | SPRING MOUNTED BLADE ASSEMBLY AND TILLAGE IMPLEMENT THEREWITH - Disclosed are tillage blade assemblies comprising a coil spring with a horizontal spring axis to permit upward deflection of a concave tillage blade in response to impact with obstacles. The mounting assembly provides for mounting the tillage blades in a particular orientation relative to the ground and the direction of travel of the implement in order that forces acting on the assembly due to movement of the blade through the soil are balanced such that there is little or no distortion of the coil spring relative to its spring axis. This prevents an off-axis load from acting on the spring when the assembly is in use and allows the blade to track through the soil at a desired angle. Impact with obstacles, such as rocks, is absorbed by deflection of the coil spring, thereby mitigating damage to the assembly. Tillage implements comprising the blade assemblies are able to operate at higher speeds than can usually be obtained for tillage implements, due to the absorption of impact energy by the spring. | 06-09-2011 |

| 20110138124 | TRACE MODE FOR CACHE MEMORY SYSTEM - A cache, including a cache memory, is configurable to operate in a cache mode and a trace mode. When the cache is operating in the cache mode, the cache memory stores a copy of a portion of data that is stored in another memory external to the cache, and a received data access request is processed by retrieving a copy of a portion of data identified in the received data access request from the cache memory (if the cache memory stores a copy of the portion of data), or by forwarding the data access request to a data access request processing means external to the cache (if the cache memory does not store a copy of the portion of data). When the cache is operating in the trace mode, data access requests received by the cache are monitored and information relating to a received data access request is captured and stored in the cache memory. | 06-09-2011 |

| 20100098241 | Local Number Portability for Mobility Management - A mobility management analysis architecture for call management. Systems and methods are provided for routing of a landline-mobile and mobile-mobile call using a switching network (landline or mobile originating) to serve effectively as the “GMSC/tandem” switching layer for the mobile network, as well as for mobile-mobile calls using an originating switch. When a landline switch issues an local number portability (LNP) query, the response to the query can be intercepted by a preliminary mobility management platform that determines a location routing number (LRN) for a visited mobile switching center (V-MSC) to which a destination mobile handset is currently attached. The LRN for that V-MSC is returned in the LNP response to the switch, which then routes the call to the serving V-MSC based on the LRN. The V-MSC then performs the GMSC (gateway mobile switching center) functionality, for example, for that particular call. | 04-22-2010 |
