Patent CA-2397518-C (CA)
Inventor: ZANGL SCOTT J
IPC: F16D1/108
Filed: 2002-08-12
Granted: 2008-12-16
Abstract: A coupler assembly for axially coupling a hub onto a shaft includes a latch assembly that prevents a locking collar from latching to the hub in a released or disengaged position when the shaft is in the hub. The collar latch assembly includes a latch ring biased eccentrically about the hub and release members when in a released position so as to engage a surface of the hub. When the shaft is inserted into the hub, the release members move to a radially outward position and center the latch ring on the hub. This allows the collar to slide by spring force to a locked position in which the locking members are moved radially inward to engage recesses in the shaft. The release members remain in the radially outward position as long as the shaft is in the hub, thereby preventing the locking ring from engaging the hub and locking the collar in the released position while the shaft is engaged with the hub.

Title: Process and device for assembly of landing gear on an aircraft structure and aircraft comprising such landing gear
Inventor: RENIAU GREGORY
IPC: B64C25/04
Filed: 2002-12-05
Granted: 2010-05-25
Abstract: A landing gear hinge shaft is installed on an aircraft structure using at least two ball joints (22), at least one of which is adjustable. The differences between the theoretical and real positions of the centers of the balls are measured, and the adjustments that have to be made to bring the centers of the balls back to their theoretical positions is deduced. This is done by making a first adjustment in the axial direction using a shim (30) and a second adjustment in the radial direction by adjusting the rotation of an inner cage (34) and an outer cage (36) of the ball joint. The inner and outer cages have eccentric axes that facilitate the adjustment.

Abstract: A computerized information system and method using object-centric virtual database(s) and analyses suited to aviation transportation safety applications (in which case aircraft may be the object class, and the individual object is an individual aircraft). A database comprises at least one set of data records, each data record pertaining to an event for an individual object and comprising a plurality of data fields, at least one of the data fields comprising an identifier identifying one individual object. A user interface component receives user-selected criteria for field values of the data fields.  A selection component selects data records which correspond to the user-selected criteria. An analysis component identifies the selected data records according to a chronological sequence of events for individual objects covered by the selected data records. Each individual object covered by the selected data records is associated with a longitudinal set of data records and derives output data for the events from the longitudinal sets of data records.
