| 20090207697 | Water Inflatable Volumetric Hydrophone Array - A hydrophone array includes an inflatable shaped housing enclosing an interior space and formable between a collapsed configuration and an expanded configuration, a framework of compliant material disposed within the interior of the inflatable housing, and a plurality of hydrophones attached to the compliant material at respective positions, wherein said hydrophones are arranged in a predetermined geometric array when the shaped housing is in the expanded configuration. Also provided herein is a system and method for deploying the hydrophone array. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20090207698 | Vertical Line Hydrophone Array - A hydrophone assembly includes at least four hydrophone units for converting an acoustic signal to an electrical signal, the hydrophone units being in a parallel, cylindrically symmetric spaced spatial relationship with each other, and at least one spacer element to maintain the hydrophone units fixed in the spatial relationship to each other, wherein the hydrophone units and spacer element are embedded in an encapsulant to form an elongated, flexible body. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20090213695 | Volumetric Passive Sonobuoy Array of Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Wires - A sonar system for detecting underwater acoustic signals includes a plurality of hydrophone units capable of converting acoustic impulses to electrical signals, the hydrophone units being substantially vertically oriented when deployed in a body of water, and the hydrophone units occupying at least some of the positions of an M×N horizontal array. Two-dimensional Chebyshev mathematical weighting is applied to the electrical signals from the individual hydrophone units such that each individual signal from each hydrophone unit is assigned a respective weighting number and a numerical value is assigned to each individual signal corresponding to the strength of the electrical signal as adjusted by the respective weighting number. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20100246330 | Vertical Line Hydrophone Array - A hydrophone assembly includes at least four hydrophone units for converting an acoustic signal to an electrical signal, the hydrophone units being in a parallel, cylindrically symmetric spaced spatial relationship with each other, and at least one spacer element to maintain the hydrophone units fixed in the spatial relationship to each other, wherein the hydrophone units and spacer element are embedded in an encapsulant to form an elongated, flexible body. | 09-30-2010 |

| 20080278276 | System and method for interconnecting a plurality of printed circuits - A primary electrical fuse is attached to a printed circuit board. The primary electrical fuse comprises a first and second terminal, a fusible element disposed between the first and second terminals electrically linking the first terminal and the second terminal, and receiving tip sections located on the first and second terminals that receive a replacement electrical fuse to electrically connect the first and second terminals with a replacement fusible element. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090251850 | Lock for a housing - A lock for a housing may have a protrusion, an opening, a receptacle, and a ramp. The protrusion is formed in a first side wall of a first member of the housing, and the opening is defined in the first side wall. The receptacle extends from a second side wall of a second member of the housing, and is in some ways complementary in shape and in dimensions to the protrusion. The ramp is formed in the second side wall. When the first member and the second member are assembled, the protrusion and the receptacle are mated to form a water-tight seal therebetween, while the ramp is received within the opening. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20100018757 | Printed circuit board (PCB) with slot for pass through terminal (PTT), method of drilling a slot in a printed circuit board and printed circuit board assembly with slot and pass through terminal - A printed circuit board assembly comprises a printed circuit board and a pass through terminal. The printed circuit board has a wavy slot extending through the printed circuit board that is clad with a conductive material. The wavy slot has part circular ends and a plurality of cusps along each side of the wavy slot that are formed by a plurality of successive drill cuts through a substrate of the printed circuit board. The pass through connector has a rectangular mounting portion that is disposed in the wavy slot with an interference fit so as to deform the part circular ends of the wavy slot at four locations and the cusps along each side of the wavy slot. | 01-28-2010 |
