Patent number: 10511762Abstract: An alignment system for images produced by cameras externally mounted on an aircraft includes a visual display positioned at a first location in the aircraft (such as a flight deck) and an alignment device positioned at a second location in the aircraft (such as an electronics bay). The visual display displays images provided by the cameras. The alignment device includes a user interface, which includes user inputs for selecting one of the cameras and for aligning an image from the camera selected on the visual display, a depiction of an aircraft, and indicators positioned adjacent the depiction. Each of the indicators represents selection of one of the cameras for aligning the image from that camera on the visual display.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2016Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignee: Rosemount Aerospace Inc.Inventors: Eric Lovaasen, Travis W.

Patent number: 9854707Abstract: A heat exchanger system may have a base, a mounting apparatus for attaching the base to a device, a gasket shelf for placing a gasket, a dissipation member for dissipating heat, and heat generator attachment sites for absorbing heat. A mounting apparatus may have finger-like extensions which flex and draw the base into contact with an underlying electronic device from which the system conducts heat. A base may also have an integrated heat pipe clamp attachment forming an aperture in the base into which a heat pipe may extend and may be clamped in thermal communication. The dissipation device may be a series of fins and troughs and a fan may direct air over the dissipation device to cool the apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2014Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: ROSEMOUNT AEROSPACE INC.Inventors: Curtis Wicks, Eric Lovaasen, Kaleb Anderson, Jonathan Boer
