Title: Aircraft de-icing system
Inventor: RUTHERFORD ROBERT B
IPC: B64D15/14
Filed: 1999-07-30
Abstract: An electrothermal zoned de-icing system for an aircraft employs a heat-conducting tape bonded to the leading edge of an aircraft structure. The heat-conducting tape has a spanwise parting strip area (122), and first and second ice accumulation and shedding zones. The tape comprises a non-metallic electrical and heat conducting layer consisting of flexible expanded graphite foil laminated to an outer heat-conducting layer, in which the thickness of the flexible expanded graphite foil layer in the parting strip area (122) is always greater than the thickness of the foil layer in either of the ice accumulation and shedding zones (123, 124). Therefore, the parting strip area has a decreased electrical resistance, a greater flow of current, and becomes hotter than the zones in which the foil layer is thinner. Because the flexible expanded graphite foil is a monolithic structure that may be shaped, sculptured or layered to form different thicknesses in different areas, only a single control mechanism for a single set of electric terminals is necessary to produce desired watt densities and temperatures in the parting strip and ice accumulation and shedding zones.

Title: Method for assigning an id to an object in a database
Inventor: OLSSON BERTIL
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2000-07-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for assigning an identity to an object (10) in a database, which object has an extension that includes a plurality of coordinate points in a coordinate system representing a multidimensional reality. The method is characterised by the steps of selecting one of the object's coordinate points (P0) and assigning the object an identity (11) based on the coordinates (x0, y0, z0, t0) of said coordinate point. Selecting the dimensions of the coordinate system in a suitable manner, e.g. by allowing them to comprise time, space and alternative embodiments, ensures that all objects in the database have wholly unique identities that are also based on one of the coordinate points of the object. This can be used to advantage in the database structure.

Title: Arrangement for clamping inner bearing race to non-circular section shaft and for preventing axial load in the bearing, axial creep and rotational knock
Inventor: BASS MERLYN DUANE
IPC: F16C35/063
Filed: 2002-05-02
Abstract: Each end of a roller is defined by a stub shaft that is non-circular in cross section and supported from a side wall for rotation by a ball bearing having an inner race containing a mounting hole that is shaped complementary to, and located on, the stub shaft. The inner race is clamped from moving axially or radially relative to the shaft, thereby preventing the bearing from knocking against the stub shaft during operation. According to one embodiment of the invention, the outer race of the bearing is mounted within a complementary shaped bore of a sleeve that has a cylindrical exterior surface and is, in turn, mounted for axial movement in a cylindrical bore of a bearing housing that is mounted to the side wall by the agency of a bearing support. According to a second embodiment of the invention, the outer race of the bearing in mounted within a complementary shaped bore of a bearing housing which is, in turn, mounted to the side wall by the agency of a bearing support that is designed to flex axially while maintaining radial strength. Both embodiments thus limit the axial load which is transmitted between the shaft and the side wall by means of the bearing.

IPC: F16H61/46
Filed: 2002-07-09
Abstract: A control system for a utility vehicle, particularly a compact utility tractor, that is speed-controlled by a hydrostatic transmission, prevents engine stalling by automatically reducing the stroke of a pump of the hydrostatic transmission, and thus reducing the vehicle speed, when the unloaded engine speed drops below a predetermined threshold. The apparatus includes a servo controlled hydrostatic transmission, an engine speed sensor, a throttle position sensor and a controller. The unloaded engine speed is determined by either an engine throttle lever position or by an engine speed capture algorithm that continuously monitors engine speed and records engine speed occurring when the transmission control pedals are positioned in neutral.
