Patent number: 11885407Abstract: A fluid pump system for an aircraft has a rotatable component having first and second fluid ports, each port in fluid communication with a selected interior portion of the component, the portions being spaced from each other. A valve controls allows a first flow rate through the first fluid port and allows a second flow rate through the second fluid port when the component is in a first angular orientation. The valve allows a third flow rate through the first fluid port and allows a fourth flow rate through the second fluid port when the component is in a second angular orientation.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2022Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Textron Innovations Inc.Inventors: Douglas Robert Mueller, Ivan Russell Laric

Patent number: 9607657Abstract: A media playback component includes a demultiplexer for receiving a data stream and for demultiplexing media content items provided at a first demultiplexer output and at least one type of non-media content items provided at a second demultiplexer output. The media playback component includes playback queue, a queue input of which is connected to the first demultiplexer output. A bypass input of a queue bypass is connected to the second demultiplexer output. The media playback component includes a decoder including a first decoder input connected to a queue output of the playback queue and a second decoder input connected to a bypass output of the queue bypass. The decoder is configured for decoding the media content items in accordance with commands contained within the at least one type of non-media content items. Further embodiments relate to a method for (distributed) media playback, and to a server component for distributed playback architecture for media data.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2012Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: CINEMO GMBHInventor: Ivan Russell

Patent number: 9011099Abstract: An HVLS fan system uses STOL technology for airfoils and angle of attack thus optimizing air movement efficiency and reducing drag. The HVLS fan system includes wingtip fence end caps to the airfoils for improving efficiency by reducing drag. The HVLS fan system also includes an interconnection of the airfoils to a securing plate thus providing a failsafe and reduced potential for damage or injury resulting from failure of the connection between the airfoil array and a drive unit such as an electric motor and associated gearing.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: April 21, 2015Assignee: SkyBlade Fan CompanyInventors: John D. Wortman, Jonathon M. Jones, Ivan Russell
