Title: Reciprocating compressor or pump and a portable tool powering system including a reciprocating compressor
Inventor: PENNER LLOYD DEAN
IPC: F04B53/12
Filed: 2007-06-08
Abstract: A reciprocating compressor or pump features a manifold arranged not only to define a hollow interior for receiving fluid discharged from a plurality of cylinders but also to define a base or frame on which the cylinders are carried. Unique valves formed in part by flexible material reduces the likelihood of fatigue and increases efficiency by retaining less heat relative to conventional reed valves. A compressor or pump mounted at an end of a handle extending parallel to a motor housing likewise extending from the compressor or pump provides an easy to carry portable assembly.

Title: Single-bridge manipulator maneuvering system
Inventor: GIVENS RAYMOND
IPC: B66C19/00
Filed: 2009-10-01
Abstract: In one aspect, the invention is directed to a load maneuvering system that includes a pair of runway rails, a bridge that is movable on the runway rails and that includes a single bridge rail, a carriage that is movable on the single bridge rail, and a manipulator supported by the carriage. The bridge rail is configured to support the assembly of the carriage and manipulator when a load is carried by the manipulator and a resultant moment is imposed on the bridge rail. The moment may be imposed in a direction about the bridge axis, in a direction about the runway axis, or a combination of the two. By providing a single bridge rail with an enclosed member as part of (or the entirety of) the bridge rail, the overall system is lighter and requires less power for movement of the bridge on the runway rails, and requires less power to move the carriage on the bridge. Additionally, the assembly is simplified relative to some load maneuvering systems of the prior art thereby making it less expensive to manufacture.

Abstract: A floatation collar for a sensor forming part of a detection array comprises two halves that when joined together act as a protective casing that secures and orients a sensor in the optimal configuration, thus forming a positioning system for said sensor. The casing provides protection, buoyancy, and trawl-resistance and comprises a shell filled with syntactic foam with voids for improved sonar reflectance. The collar top portion includes a series of projections strategically placed to protecting the sensor's transducers against mechanical damage. These are positioned in such a manner as to minimize the degree to which the sensors are occluded, and the case's collar is shaped so as to not occlude any of the downward "field of view" that is not already occluded by the air-filled pressure casing for the instrument. Air-filled voids positioned against the interior of the flat faces providing a bright reflected sonar signal when a unit is being searched for either using a sonar located on a surface vessel or on a ROV positioned either lateral to or below the positioning system. The base of the system is conical with an integral thimble to allow the positioning sytem to ride down and then emerge under a passing trawl net or other fishing lines or cables by presenting a smooth aspect and a secure means of tethering said unit to a bottom anchor.
