Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090256328ISOLATED SPRING CLAMP GROUP - A clamp assembly of a vehicle leaf spring suspension is disclosed. The clamp assembly has an axle bracket secured to a vehicle axle and a top cap secured to the axle bracket by mechanical fasteners to define an axle seat. The axle bracket and top cap may include interlocking keys and keyways to cooperate with the mechanical fasteners in transmitting the load from the vehicle axle. A spring seat of the leaf spring is received within the axle seat and is tapered. The tapered spring seat, when combined with a deformable liner in the axle seat, effectively eliminates the inactive portion of the leaf spring to increase the effective length of the spring and minimize the spring rate.10-15-2009
20100038877Vehicle Suspensions Having Leaf Springs And Alternative Clamp Groups - A vehicle leaf spring suspension having a low spring rate is disclosed. The suspension has an axle seat secured to a vehicle axle. The leaf spring is clamped at its spring seat area to the axle seat at the clamp group mounting surface of the axle seat and with certain of the disclosed axle seats, can be clamped such that the spring seat area is asymmetrically positioned with respect to the vehicle axle centerline. Also, an active clamp group arrangement can be used to utilize the entire physical length of the leaf spring.02-18-2010

20120032412AXLE SEAT FOR VEHICLE SUSPENSIONS - Axle seats are disclosed for incorporation into vehicle suspensions of the type having a laterally extending axle and a longitudinally extending leaf spring. The axle seat includes a seat portion, a clamp group mounting surface, and an air spring mounting flange. A sidewall of the axle seat connects the seat portion to the clamp group mounting surface and the air spring mounting flange. The clamp group mounting surface and air spring mounting flange are configured to be positioned at different heights when the seat portion is connected to an axle. A second sidewall and air spring mounting flange may be provided, in which case the air spring mounting flanges may be spaced apart to provide an area through which a leaf spring may extend.02-09-2012

20100081459Wireless communication system for distributing paging messages and method thereof - The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for distributing paging messages in a wireless communication system. The wireless communication system may include a paging controller configured to distribute the paging messages in a paging area, a paging group including a plurality of base stations within the paging area configured to receive the paging message, and a paging interface between the paging controller and the paging group configured to support transmission of only the paging messages to all the plurality of base stations through a single transmission of the paging message from the paging controller. The method may include distributing a paging message to all of a plurality of base stations through a single transmission of a paging message from a paging controller over a secured IP-multicast group.04-01-2010

20090001221SPACECRAFT GRAPPLE ASSEMBLY AND DOCKING SYSTEM EMPLOYING THE SAME - A spacecraft docking system configured to permit the docking of a spacecraft to a target object is provided. The docking system includes a grapple and docking interface, which is mounted on the target object. The grapple includes a body coupled to the spacecraft and at least one latching wing coupled to the body. The at least one latching wing is movable between a retracted position and an extended position, and configured to move into the extended position and latch onto the docking interface when the grapple is inserted therein.01-01-2009
