Title: Method for increasing the probability of success of air defence by means of a remotely fragmentable projectile
Inventor: TOTH PETER
IPC: F42C13/04
Filed: 1992-12-02
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE      A weapons system with at least one fire control device and a launcher uses a remotely fragmentable projectile for defense against a missile or other movable target.  Although the probability of a hit is increased with the use of a remotely fragmentable projectile, the system of the invention increases the success of the defense, which is nevertheless questionable because of the low density of the projectile fragments.  The method utilizes a projectile, the fragments of which are concentrated in 2 ring, which spreads out in the shape of a conical envelope.  The projectile is individualized at launch.  Tracking of the target continues during the flight of the projectile, because of which the expected location at the pre-calculated time of impact becomes continuously better known.   The  fragmentation command is transmitted to the projectile as late as possible.  It is always possible with a high degree of probability to score a hit.   An increased chance of  success of the defense  is  the  result  of the relatively great density of the fragments concentrated in the ring.     P11300.S02

Title: Magnetic disk drive unit
Inventor: RICHARD DAVID W
IPC: G11B25/04
Filed: 1993-10-26
Abstract: MAGNETIC DISK DRIVE UNIT            Abstract of the Invention:     A high capacity, high speed memory system is presented.  The system comprises a disk drive cartridge and an electronics unit.  The disk drive cartridge comprises five magnetic hard disks having 300 megabytes of usable capacity housed in a hermetically sealed, self-contained unit suitable for use in extreme environments of vibration, shock and temperature.  The electronics unit comprises a metal structure wherein the electronics for the system are housed.  The disk drive cartridge has a stationary spindle to which a motor stator assembly is attached.  A motor rotor assembly is constituted by a rotary hub mounted around the stator, the hub having a motor magnet mounted therein.  Upper and lower bearing assemblies are positioned between the stator and the rotor.  This assembly is preloaded by a pair of canted springs which are disposed about the spindle and bear against the floating race of the upper bearing assembly. Preloading the assembly in this manner avoids abrupt contact between the bearing and the spindle shaft during vibrations.  These abrupt contacts have been found to generate head position errors during vibration.  These head position errors are outside the bandwidth of typical prior art closed loop servos. However, due to the increased capacity of the present invention a higher bandwidth is utilized.  Accordingly, the canted springs of the present invention prohibit the abrupt contacts, thereby eliminating the head errors that would otherwise result.
