Title: Method of suppressing supersaturation in underground electrical cables
Inventor: BERTINI GLEN J
IPC: H01B13/32
Filed: 1999-09-22
Granted: 2002-07-18
Abstract: A method for enhancing the dielectric properties of an electrical cable havi ng a central stranded conductor encased in a polymeric insulation. The cable defines an interstitial void space (v1) between the strands of the conductor. The volume (v2) of a dielectric enhancement fluid required to be absorbed by the cable to reach a predetermined level of dielectric enhancement is determined. The ratio of (v1/v2) is computed. If the ratio of (v1/v2) is greater than a maximum ratio of 1.4, th en a quantity of the dielectric enhancement fluid is diluted with a sufficient quantity of a diluent to produce a mixture of diluent and dielectric enhancement fluid, such that when the volume (v1) of the mixture is supplied to the cable interior, the cable will have been supplied with a volume (v3) of the dielectric enhancement fluid within the mixture such that (v3/v2) is less than 1.4. The diluent is substantially insoluble in the polymeric insulation, has a sufficiently low initial viscosity to enable introduction into the cable interior, and is miscible wi th the dielectric enhancement fluid.

Title: Fasteners that bleed fluid upon failure
Inventor: MUN KAM CHONG
IPC: G01L5/00
Filed: 1991-11-19
Granted: 1994-06-09
Abstract: A failure indicating device wherein a fluid is encased within a bore in a fastener. In another embodiment of the invention, the fluid is encased within a thin walled capsule which in turn is encapsulated within a bore in the fastener. Upon failure of the fastener, the encased fluid will leak out into the external surface and its detection will indicate that the fastener has failed. The stress which causes the fastener to fail will also assist the fluid to leak out onto its external surface. To facilitate the leakage of the fluid, one or more shallow and narrow groove(s) may be machined onto the external surface of the fastener so that the leaked fluid will travel along this groove(s) to the preferred external end of the fastener. This is desirable in cases where only one side of the joint is accessible.

Title: Stabilized common gimbal
Inventor: ELLINGTON THOMAS W
IPC: F41G3/22
Filed: 2001-12-18
Granted: 2004-06-24
Abstract: A two axis (azimuth and elevation) stabilized common gimbal (SGC) for use on a wide variety of commercial vehicles and military vehicles which are employed in combat situations capable of stabilizing a payload of primary sensors and of mounting a secondary sensor payload that is independent of the moving axes. The SCG employs three gyroscopes, inertial angular rate feedback for providing gimbal control of two axes during slewing and stabilization. In addition the third (roll) gyroscope is used for performing automatic calibration and decoupling procedures. In this regard, the SCG provides an interface for the primary suite of sensors comprising one or more sensors having a common line-of-sight (LOS) and which are stabilized by electronics, actuators, and inertial sensors against vehicle motion in both azimuth and elevation. Remote positioning of the LOS of sensors in the primary suite is also accomplished, with the SCG providing an inertial navigation system (INS) which provides navigation and which detects the LOS for the primary suite of sensors relative to the vehicle.The aforementioned stabilized gimbal employs unique features such as automotive gyro calibration and decoupling algorithm that increases the producibility of the system and the stabilized gimbal has the capability of being remotely controlled via its system serial link where commands may originate from devices such as radio links or target trackers.

Abstract: Appts. detecting mineral deposits underground uses an array of electrodes and driving circuits recording voltage against current characteristics of a tract of ground. The press. of certain mineral deposits can be deduced from this kind of recorded information. Noise and electro-chemical polarisation effects are compensated for. Two sets of electrodes are sunk in the ground. A current source, amplifier, and rectifier supply a current to the electrodes and this current is changed according to a programme. Two voltage measurement electrodes are situated between the current drive electrodes and these supply signals to a difference amplifier. The current and detected voltage are both fed to an XY recorder on which the full characteristic of a tract of ground is recorded.
