Abstract: A thrust bearing assembly comprising a bearing runner and a bearing carrier, the carrier defining a plurality of thrust pad sites annularly around the carrier, with a thrust pad disposed at a site and with the carrier limiting movement of the thrust pad in a direction generally radial to the longitudinal axis of the runner while allowing the thrust pad to move in a direction generally parallel to the longitudinal axis. Though the range of movement is limited, the pads can tilt under load to form a hydrodynamic wedge as is known in the art. An embodiment comprises a bearing runner having a wear resistant face and a bearing carrier defining thrust pad sites disposed annularly around the carrier. In one implementation, at each site, a deflection element (e.g., Belleville washer) is disposed in a cavity and a pad is disposed over the deflection element. The pad can be at least partially disposed within the cavity. The wear resistant face contacts the pad. Another embodiment rigidly connects pads disposed on opposite sides of a stationary bearing carrier. Another embodiment attaches pads to a bearing carrier using pad holder assemblies.

Abstract: A belted gear assembly for driving a supercharger includes a belt drive assembly for operatively connecting a gear drive assembly to an existing pinion shaft of an engine.  The belt drive assembly includes a lower pulley assembly that is operatively connected to the pinion shaft and belted to an upper pulley assembly. The upper pulley assembly is operatively connected to a side gear of the gear drive assembly. The side gear engages an upper gear of the gear drive assembly, which is operatively connected to a lobe of the supercharger. Rotation of the upper gear thereby initiates rotation of the supercharger.  The amount of boost provided to the supercharger is readily adjustable by simply changing the lower pulley assembly to adjust the RPM ratio for the supercharger. Each component of the belted gear assembly is isolated and fully self-contained, including a separate lubrication system and collection well.

Abstract: A switching arrangement for a patient hoist - for example, a ceiling-mounted hoist for lifting and transporting patients with mobility impairments -includes a switching member which descends from the hoist such that it is reachable by an operator standing on the floor adjacent to the patient. The switch can be actuated by the operator to disable the hoist by moving the switch member with a first type of motion, e.g., by pulling the switch member along an axis. The hoist member can thereafter be re-enabled by the switch member only when the switch member is moved with a second type of motion different from the first type, e.g., by rotating the switch member along the axis. The use of different disabling and enabling motions helps to deter accidental re-enablement once the hoist is disabled, which is particularly useful where disablement is done for emergency purposes.

Abstract: A white-box cryptographic system is presented wherein at least one of its internal values is represented using an input dependent encoding. The system comprises a network of a plurality of basic blocks arranged for collectively performing a cryptographic operation. An encoder is arranged for encoding output data of a first one of the plurality of basic blocks into an encoder-output according to a selected one of a plurality of encoding schemes, said selection depending on an input-message to the system. A compensator is arranged for recoding intermediate data to compensate for the effect of the encoding according to a selected one of a plurality of recoding schemes.  Using variable encodings instead of fixed encodings complicates reverse engineering the white-box cryptographic system.

Abstract: A demodulator is provided that functions as a reduced-state equalizer and pro-duces reliable soft bit values. According to an embodiment, soft bit values are generated for a sequence of transmitted symbols using a demod-ulator by updating an M-state trellis managed by the demodulator response e to a transition from symbol time n-1 to symbol time n, where M is a function of the number of bits per symbol in the sequence of transmitted symbols. Survivor met-rics associated with the M states of the trellis are saved each symbol time so that the demodulator can calculate soft bit values with regard to transi-tions from symbol time n + D-1 to symbol time n+ D. The survivor metrics indicate the probabil-ity that each respective state represents the trans-mitted symbol associated with symbol time n+D-1. The trellis is traced back through to cal-culate soft bit values for a symbol detected at symbol time n-D based on survivor metrics saved for the M states at symbol time n-D.

Abstract: An automated tape head assembly for a multiple axis tape laying machine includes a tape supply reel and a tape compaction roller, and a chute. Tape passes from the supply reel, through the chute, to the tape compaction roller. The tape path and at least a portion of the chute are maintained substantially at a zero Gaussian curvature. The tape path and chute are curved to define a compliance loop that results from a substantially or partially unrestrained curved path between the supply reel and the compaction roller. This structure allows the compaction roller to shift laterally and vertically with respect to the supply reel while the supply reel is in a fixed position with respect to the tape head assembly generally.  This structure also allows the compaction roller to roll, steer, and follow the fiber tape's natural path, all with significant independence from the supply reel.
