Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090050748AIRCRAFT FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS AND METHODS - An aircraft flight control system advantageously is provided with a control rod which is spline-connected to a bearing assembly so as to permit simultaneous independent longitudinal and rotational movements of the control rod while isolating such movements from one another (e.g., so as to allow operative interconnection to an aircraft's aileron and elevator control surfaces). Thus, the control rod is moveable in longitudinal and rotational directions relative to a longitudinal axis of the control rod in response to pitch and roll command inputs, respectively. The rotatable bearing assembly is adapted for connection to aileron control surfaces of the aircraft. The control rod is splined operatively to the bearing assembly so as to allow for independent simultaneous longitudinal and rotational movements of the control rod relative to the longitudinal axis thereof. As such, longitudinal movements of the control rod are isolated from the bearing member but rotational movements of the control rod are transferred to the bearing member to cause rotation thereof and thereby allow operation of the aileron control surfaces. Longitudinal movements of the control rod may however be transferred to a torque tube assembly via an articulated linkage to allow for operation of an aircraft's elevator control surface.02-26-2009

20080317555Subsea System Provided With a Controllable Curvature Flexible Pipe - A curvature limiter for a hydrocarbon transferring subsea system comprising a flexible tubular member through which an intermediate portion of the flexible hydrocarbon pipe passes. The flexible tubular member comprises a plurality of successive substantially cylindrical sections which are hingedly mounted with respect to each other. At a predetermined maximum displacement thereof the tubular member defining a mean plane in such a way that the flexible tubular member forms a mean curvature having the predetermined curvature radius on said mean plane.12-25-2008

20110215268MICRO-POWER GENERATOR FOR VALVE CONTROL APPLICATIONS - A micro-power generator is integrated in a pneumatic valve controller, such that the micro-power generator is powered by the same compressed air supply used to operate the valve. The micro-power generator includes a micro-turbine connected to a DC power generator, and a source of compressed air is used to drive the micro-turbine to generate power via the generator. The system may include a valve controller pneumatically connected to the compressed air supply. The valve controller may include electronics for displaying a condition of the controller. The system can include an electronic field device in communication with the valve controller for displaying a condition of the valve controller. The micro-turbine generator can be electrically connected to the field device to provide power to the electronic field device. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.09-08-2011
