Title: Low weight carpet and carpet tile and methods of manufacture, sizing and installation
Inventor: JONES STUART
IPC: D06N7/00
Filed: 2009-09-02
Abstract: Low weight and non-square carpet tile suitable for use in mass transit vehicles, particularly passenger aircraft. The carpet tile preferably weighs less than about 82 ounces per square yard. The carpet tile of this invention may have a carpet pile and at least one backing layer.

Abstract: An inspection scanner [1000]  is described that has a low profile construction designed to fit into tight spaces and inspect structures [10] such as weld joints [13]. Wheel frame assemblies [1100, 1200] carry a probe holder assembly [1110] with an ultrasonic (US) array [1400] that emits US beams through the structure [10] and receives reflected sound waves. The probe holder assembly [1110] extends and US beam is angled away to inspect in tight locations. The wheel frame assemblies [1100, 1200] roll on wheels [1140, 1240] that drive an encoder [1250]. Encoder [1250] provides the specific locations for the received sound waves with respect to the weld.  The locations and received sound waves are used to reconstruct a signal showing imperfections inside of structure [10]. The wheels [1140, 1240] may be magnetic to hold it to the structure [10] being inspected. A brake system [1600] may be employed to hold the inspection scanner [1000] at a given location.

Abstract: A device is provided having a local oscillator (LO) configured to generate a first signal comprising at least one of: timing information; frequency information; phase information; and combinations thereof. The device also has a LO error corrector comprising an input, the input configured to receive a second signal comprising at least one of: timing information; frequency information; phase information and combinations thereof, wherein the second signal is used for disciplining the LO. The LO error corrector is configured to: if the second signal is unavailable to discipline the LO, discipline the LO using a source that is less accurate than the second signal.
