Publication number: 20240148095Abstract: Protective devices, such as, for example, helmets, have one or more efficient, fluid-containing shock absorbers in place of protective devices' original shock absorbing material to minimize the overall weight of the protective devices. The more efficient, fluid-containing shock absorbers yield improved impact force attenuation but occupy substantially less volume and, consequently, less weight, than the original shock absorbing material.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Nicholas James Cecchi, Hossein Vahid Alizadeh, David Benjamin Camarillo, Christoph Eduard Mack, Jeffrey Daniel Allison, Gordon Lee Avery

Publication number: 20240093746Abstract: Impact protection for people and goods involved in athletics, transportation, industrial, and military activities comprises a hybrid crush zone shock absorber apparatus, systems, and methods of using the same. More specifically, the present invention reduces forces transmitted to a person or item exposed to impact. Primary applications are in protective articles such as helmets and body padding, surfaces which people or goods may impact, and shock isolation packaging. In addition to reduction in transmitted impact forces, our invention provides clear, irreversible visual indication of the state of readiness of the protective gear to which it is fitted.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Jeffrey Daniel Allison, Christoph Eduard Mack

Patent number: 7796092Abstract: A broadband composite dipole array (CDA) includes an array of macro dipoles on a non-conducting substrate adapted to receive radiation at two frequencies. Each macro dipole is an array of micro dipoles adapted to receive radiation at substantially the mean of the two frequencies. The micro-dipoles are coupled to each other by a parallel resonant circuit including a nonlinear element, wherein the minimum impedance of the circuit is a substantially short circuit at the difference frequency f1?f2, and the circuit has a substantially open circuit impedance in the range of frequencies from f1 to f2. The micro dipoles resonate efficiently at both frequencies f1 and f2 with low-loss. The nonlinear element in the resonant circuit generates a signal at the difference frequency which is the resonant frequency of the macro dipole antenna.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2007Date of Patent: September 14, 2010Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Sandor Holly, William Daniel Mack
