| 20110014080 | GEAR TYPE PERFORMANCE OIL PUMP - A high performance gear type oil pump for an internal combustion engine which has drive and driven gears which are, on one common side of the gears, respectively supported from the housing by a drive shaft and an idler shaft. In order to avoid cantilevering of the gears when generating pressurized oil, the other common side of the gears are each rotatable mounted on stub axles or pins which themselves are fixedly attached to the housing. In order to minimize wear, oil under pressure is supplied to the bearing surfaces of stub axles or pins which extend interiorly of the gears and also to the bearing surfaces of the housing which faces the common side of the gears where the stub axles are located, through oil supply passageways in the stub axles or pins. | 01-20-2011 |

| 20110313715 | MULTI CHANNEL ELECTRONIC ACCELERATION SWITCH - An electronic acceleration switch, such as for arming and firing a squib, for instance used in arming a warhead, safe missile air, ground and sea launch separation arming, includes multiple redundancies to provide a fail-safe system that does not have a single-point failure. The switch includes different channels, each of which includes a power subsystem, multiple accelerometers, a pair of controllers, and a switching circuit. The power subsystems of the two channels provide power to multiple accelerometers of each channel. The accelerometers of each channel may include a mix of digital and analog accelerometers. The acceleration sensors can be either one-axis or three-axis sensors. The accelerometers are connected to the controllers of both channels. The controllers provide redundancy for each channel. In addition, the controllers include voting logic that receives inputs from the accelerometers, and determines whether to send arm and enable signals to the multiple squib drivers. | 12-22-2011 |

| 20100118168 | HIGH DENSITY COMPOSITE FOCAL PLANE ARRAY - A composite focal plane assembly with an expandable architecture has a multi-layer, double-sided aluminum nitride (AlN) substrate and vertical architecture to achieve the dual function of focal plane and electronics backplane. Imaging dice and other electrical components are mounted and wire bonded to one surface and then direct backplane connectivity is provided on the opposing surface through a matrix of electrical contacts. In one embodiment, a flexible connector is sandwiched between the AlN focal plane and a FR-4 backplane is used to compensate for differences in coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) between the AlN and commercially available high density circuit card connectors that are commonly manufactured from materials with CTE properties more closely approximating FR-4. In an alternate embodiment, the FR-4 and flexible connectors are eliminated by using high density circuit card connectors that are fabricated out of materials more closely matching the CTE of AlN. | 05-13-2010 |

| 20120160587 | Forestry Machines with Transverse Engine and Hydraulic System Installation - A wheeled forestry tractors design, such as that for a wheel feller-buncher or a site prep tractor, is disclosed. The disclosed design includes a front axle connected to a rear axle by an articulated chassis. A cab is supported between and above the front and rear axles by the chassis. An engine and a hydraulic system are mounted opposite the rear axle from the cab and in a side-by-side relationship with the engine being aligned transversely with respect to the chassis and parallel to the rear axle. The engine is mounted transversely or parallel with respect to the rear axle and slightly behind the rear axle to improve the weight distribution between the front and rear axles or between the front and rear frames. By mounting the engine transversely and on one side of the rear of the tractor and the hydraulic system on the other side of the tractor in combination with placing the fuel tank in alignment with the engine and the oil tank in alignment with the hydraulic system, improved left to right weight distribution is also achieved. | 06-28-2012 |

| 20080267878 | Targeted Imaging And/Or Therapy Using The [3+2] Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition - The use of a selective chemical and bioorthogonal reaction providing a covalent ligation such as the [3+2] cycloaddition, in targeted molecular imaging and therapy is presented, more specifically with interesting applications for pre-targeted imaging or therapy. Current pre-targeted imaging is hampered by the fact that it relies solely on natural/biological targeting constructs (biotin/streptavidin). Size considerations and limitations associated with their endogenous nature severely limit the number of applications. The present invention describes how the use of an abiotic, bio-orthogonal reaction which forms a stable adduct under physiological conditions, by way of a small or undetectable bond, can overcome these limitations. | 10-30-2008 |
