arranged to fracture both panes. Preferably the fracturing means comprises two explosively
driven impacting devices (31, 48, 68), which are positioned in opposed relationship
between the panes. The devices may be remotely actuated, e.g. electrically, and may be
connected to a trigger system (35) which actuates fracture e.g. on deceleration or impact (in
the case of a vehicle) or on detection of a fire. Preferably the fracturing means is compact,
positioned adjacent a comer of the window, and concealed from external view.

Abstract: A fairing for protecting a payload from excessive acoustic energy is
disclosed. The fairing can be used with a launch vehicle for launching payloads such as
satellites or the like. The invention provides structure to surround a payload and absorbs
acoustic energy so that the noise is suppressed to acceptable levels and the payload is not
damaged. The fairing comprises a two dimensional honeycomb core (30) having composite face
sheets (38,50) and load skins (42,52) bonded to each side of the core. A water barrier (44) is connected to the
inner side of the fairing to prevent moisture from entering the payload area. The fairing
wall further includes a liquid which is added to the two dimensional honeycomb layer. The
liquid is jettisoned during the launch of the vehicle at a predetermined time when the
additional acoustic suppression provided by the mass of liquid is no longer needed. The
fairing may also include an energy absorbing blanket connected to the inner side of the
fairing to further suppress the energy generated by a launch vehicle.

Abstract: An apparatus (2) and method of producing a meat product including a piece of meat which is
heat treated to have no outer skin about its surface is disclosed. The meat is placed inside of
an air-tight chamber (10) and steam generated from a source of water (12) is introduced into
the cooking chamber (10). The steam and pressure within the chamber (10) are regulated so
as to create an atmospheric humidity of 100% within the chamber, so any water present
within the meat is prevented from evaporating into the atmosphere of the chamber (10). The
pressure may be reduced so as to produce a low temperature steam from 65,6 °C (150 °F) to
82,2 °C (180 °F) to cook the meat product. Additionally, a flavored ingredient, such as liquid
smoke, may be added to the water (12) to flavor the meat product and the pressure can be
further reduced so that a thin skin layer can be formed on the meat product surface.

Abstract: A retractable connector mechanism for a signal connector has a recessed tub
housing with a signal connector carrier rotatably fixed within the housing. The
retractable connector mechanism rotates from the stored position in the housing to an

The biased carrier latch has a cam surface that travels on first and second guide
surfaces within the housing such that rotating the signal connector carrier from the
stored position to the angled position causes the cam surface to travel on the first
guide surface and the biased carrier latch to rotate to a locked position on the second
guide surface to latch the signal connector carrier in the angled position.
