20100296855HYBRID PRINTER-FEEDER MECHANISM - Hybrid printer feeder mechanism, using a commercial printer of any type, such as LED, ink jet, thermal or dot matrix, allowing both single sheet fed input and alternately, continuous and variable width printable medium feedstock, including automated feed and cutting control, with minimal integration of the print engine and feeder.11-25-2010

20100230988DUAL STAGE VARIABLE LOAD ENERGY ABSORBER FOR VEHICLE SEATING - A vehicle safety seat system includes a seat, and a frame and support surface that are movable with respect to each other between rest and attenuated positions, wherein the frame and support surface are respectively a first and second distance apart. A biasing mechanism biases the frame and support surface to the rest position between blast and slam down phases. A damper coupled between the frame and support surface has blast and rebound recovery resistance settings. The blast resistance setting is set to a predetermined value based on a weight of a seat occupant. The damper, during the blast phase, resists motion between the frame and support surface toward the attenuated position based upon the blast resistance setting, and after the blast phase and prior to the slam down phase, resists motion between the frame and support surface toward the rest position based upon the rebound recovery resistance setting.09-16-2010

20100127130RECONFIGURABLE WING AND METHOD OF USE - A reconfigurable air vehicle wing may be selectively reconfigured to increase its chord. The wing has a leading edge portion and a trailing edge portion that are moved relative to one another to change the chord of the wing. The wing may be reconfigured from a compact configuration with a smaller chord, to and expanded configuration with a larger chord. The wing may include a foam material that forms part of the outer surface of the wing when the wing is in the expanded configuration. The foam may be a shape memory foam. Alternatively the leading edge section and the trailing edge section may be composed substantially fully of rigid materials. In either case the trailing edge section may be hingedly coupled to the leading edge section.05-27-2010
20100237192REINFORCED INFLATABLE WINGS FOR FITMENT-CONSTRAINED AIR VEHICLES - A reinforced inflatable wing improves the tolerance of the OML and reinforces the wing in at least the high load areas. This approach provides fitment constrained air vehicles with wings having increased surface area to improve flight endurance or aerodynamic control. A wing box forms a first portion of the wing. A skin having a plurality of rigid plates affixed thereto is inflated to form a second portion of the wing to either increase the chord length or lengthen the wing span. The skin is suitably inflated with foam to form a solid wing.09-23-2010
20110073709METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR A FRANGIBLE SEAL FOR DEPLOYABLE FLIGHT STRUCTURES - A frangible seal includes a first region penetratable by a deployable structure configured to selectably extend through an opening in a housing and extend beyond an outer surface of the housing, and a second region configured to adhere to a portion of the outer surface of the housing surrounding the opening. The first region and the second region includes a polymer layer having a metalized surface (e.g., aluminized polyimide) and a non-metalized surface, and an ablative coating provided on the metalized surface of the polymer layer.03-31-2011
