Publication number: 20240069586Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a pedal assembly that includes a pedal arm configured to move based on a load applied thereon and a housing that includes a first housing member having a first cavity and a pushrod operably connected to the pedal arm and to the first housing member. A first cradle positioned within the first cavity. The first cradle includes a second cavity. A first pair of springs positioned to extend within the second cavity. A second housing member having a third cavity. A second pair of springs positioned to extend within the second cavity and the third cavity. When a first predetermined load is applied to the pedal arm, the pushrod moves which drives the first cradle against the first pair of springs such that at least a compression energy by the first pair of springs generates a first force feedback onto the pedal arm.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: KSR IP HOLDINGS, LLCInventors: Daniel LEEM, Amir Jaboukji, Matthew Vyskocil, Benjamin Scott Hill, Dan O'Neill

Patent number: 9534848Abstract: A fluid input manifold distributes injected fluid around the body of a bulb to cool the bulb below a threshold. The injected fluid also distributes heat more evenly along the surface of the bulb to reduce thermal stress. The fluid input manifold may comprise one or more airfoils to direct a substantially laminar fluid flow along the surface of the bulb or it may comprise a plurality of fluid injection nozzles oriented to produce a substantially laminar fluid flow. An output portion may be configured to facilitate fluid flow along the surface of the bulb by allowing injected fluid to easily escape after absorbing heat from the bulb or by applying negative pressure to actively draw injected fluid along the surface of the bulb and away.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2013Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: KLA-Tencor CorporationInventors: Jincheng Wang, Anant Chimmalgi, Rajeev Patil, Erik Kim, Rudolf Brunner, Quang Giang, Lauren Wilson, Ken Gross, Ilya Bezel, Dan Scott, Younus Vora, Matthew Derstine, Cedric Lasfargues
