Publication number: 20190270520Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to an aircraft having an in-flight leveling system for a seat onboard the aircraft that includes a swivel mechanism providing selective rotational movement of the a rear portion of the seat to compensate for an angle of inclination of the aircraft during flight. A locking mechanism is coupled to the swivel mechanism to retain the seat in a first position for use on the ground and a second position for use during flight. An actuator moves the locking mechanism between a locked condition and an unlocked condition permitting the seat to move between the first position to the second position enabling the seat to be substantially level when the aircraft is on the ground and during flight.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2019Publication date: September 5, 2019Applicant: Gulfstream Aerospace CorporationInventors: Dale Drew, Patrick Thomas Whalen

Patent number: 9756034Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure involve a system and/or method for providing account information for a telephone number. All users are authenticated to ensure they may access the account information. Once authenticated, the user provides one or more telephone numbers that they would like to retrieve account information for. The system searches for the telephone number and if found, checks to ensure that the telecommunications provider services the phone number. When the telecommunications provider is the provider for the phone number, the record is retrieved and sent to the user.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2016Date of Patent: September 5, 2017Assignee: Level 3 Communications, LLCInventors: Brett Wentworth, Taylor Fraley, Mike Keating, Dale Drew, John Fable

Patent number: 7984893Abstract: A process can include the step of forming a removable support having a complementary contour to a machined surface of a block of material to be processed in order to support the machined surface from an opposite planar surface formed on the removable support during machining of the opposite side of the block of material. The process can include the steps of processing a block of material on a machine to form one surface; inserting a support having a complementary contour to support the one surface and an opposite planar surface; rotating the block of material onto the opposite planar surface of the support to machine the opposite side of the block of material; releasing the support along a parting line defined by the complementary contour; and reusing the support for the next block of material having the same contour configuration.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2006Date of Patent: July 26, 2011Assignee: RCO EngineeringInventors: Elmer Drew, Dale Drew, Jason Benolt, Rick Dries, Gary Bisson, Michael Carollo
