Patent number: 11932142Abstract: A seat assembly includes a cushioned component having a lattice matrix. An air bladder assembly is covered by the lattice matrix. The air bladder assembly includes a plurality of air bladders supported on a platform assembly. Each air bladder includes a body portion operable between deflated and inflated conditions. Each air bladder includes a connection stem. A support plate includes a plurality of access apertures disposed therethrough. The air bladder assembly is operably coupled to the support plate. Each air bladder is aligned with at least one access aperture of the plurality of access apertures. A carrier assembly includes a plurality of mounting apertures disposed through an outer surface thereof. The carrier assembly receives the connection stem of each air bladder through at least one mounting aperture of the plurality of mounting apertures of the carrier assembly.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Megan Romelfanger, Victoria Leigh Schein, Brian Boland, Patrick Maloney, Alex Perkins, Marcos Silva Kondrad

Patent number: 11184993Abstract: A system includes a cabinet having a first wall, a second wall opposite the first wall, and a back wall extending from the first wall to the second wall. The system also includes a flow plate disposed at least partially within the cabinet and partitioning the inner space into a first portion and a second portion. The system also includes a shelf disposed at least partially within the first portion of the inner space, and a flow device fluidly connected to the cabinet. The flow device is configured to remove air from the first portion of the inner space, and the flow plate is configured to substantially prohibit removal of air by the flow device from the second portion, via the first portion, when the cabinet is in a closed condition.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2016Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventor: Brian Maloney

Publication number: 20060166738Abstract: Techniques for measuring and modeling club-like sports instrument inertial motion sensing signals are disclosed. The disclosed method and system generate corrected output of a motion sensing circuit, which circuit includes an inertial measurement unit and associates with a putting club-like sports instrument. One aspect of the disclosed subject matter includes a method and system for isolating analysis positions of a golf swing, which analysis positions facilitate measuring and modeling the swinging motion. Another aspect of the disclosed subject matter includes a method and system for correcting golf swing measurement errors for more accurately measuring and modeling the swinging motion. Yet another aspect of the disclosed subject matter provides a method and system for determining an impact position of a swinging sports instrument.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2005Publication date: July 27, 2006Inventors: Richard Eyestone, Nathan Hood, Alessandro Gabbi, John Farrington, Eric Cassady, Brian Maloney, Raymond Deragon, John Lupher, James Satterwhite

Publication number: 20060084516Abstract: A method and system define a reference swing for a sports training system, steps of and structures for forming a humanoid for using a plurality of formulae for defining the movements of a sports implement throughout a swinging motion, while using said plurality of formulae for defining the movements of the golf club throughout a plurality of known positions during the swinging motion. The method and system link said humanoid to said plurality of formulae using a plurality of planes perpendicular to the target line, said target line defined as a line passing through the golf ball to the target. A lower plane relates to the shaft of the sports implement; with a first point and a second point of said lower plane associated at the hosel of the sports implement, and an entry point of the shaft into the head on the sports implement and the swinger's hands. A middle plane relates to the plane that passes through two points, the center of the sports implement sweet spot and the right elbow of the swinger.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2005Publication date: April 20, 2006Inventors: Richard Eyestone, Nathan Hood, Alessandro Gabbi, John Farrington, Eric Cassady, Brian Maloney, Raymond Deragon, John Lupher, James Satterwhite

Publication number: 20050054457Abstract: Provided is a sport learning system directed to improving an individual's swing by monitoring a club, bat or racket during a swing. During the course of a swing, the system alerts the individual when the club position varies outside of a predetermined range. The system includes a device inserted into the distal end of a shaft of the club. A second device is attached to a personal computer to provide wireless data transmission with the device mounted in the club. A personal computer application enables swing data analysis and display. The inserted device employs a microprocessor, accelerometers, gyroscopes, memory and a system of buffering and filtering to provide real-time feedback during the swing. It is an additional feature of the inserted device to capture and store data required to reconstruct, display, and analyze swings and to share the data with other applications to facilitate remote instruction.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2004Publication date: March 10, 2005Inventors: Richard Eyestone, Nathan Hood, Alessandro Gabbi, John Farrington, Eric Cassady, Brian Maloney, Raymond Deragon, John Lupher, James Satterwhite

Publication number: 20030205283Abstract: A hydraulic control unit (HCU) for a vehicle brake system having an HCU body and an accumulator mounted in the HCU body. A grommet is provided for mounting the HCU body to a vehicle body and resiliently separating the HCU body from the vehicle body. The grommet defines a vent path for the accumulator and includes a hollow generally cylindrical shaft. The shaft has a closed end and an open end, and the closed end has an opening therethrough. An enlarged annular head is formed on the open end of the shaft and has an inner surface defining an axial bore therethrough. The axial bore is in fluid communication with the hollow shaft, the annular head further has a crown cut geometry providing radially extending grooves within an axial face of the annular head, the radially extending grooves being in fluid communication with the axial bore of the annular head.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2001Publication date: November 6, 2003Inventors: Brian Maloney, John Cassidy, Joseph A. Starr
