  • Structural frame for the body of a motor vehicle
    Patent number: 11964696
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a structural frame for a body of a motor vehicle, the structural frame defining, at least in part, an occupant compartment of the vehicle, the structural frame comprising a pair of spaced pillars joined together at an upper region of each pillar to a roof crossmember and further joined together at respective points below the roof crossmember to a structural cross-brace, the structural cross-brace is further arranged to support a pair of spaced apart vehicle suspension connectors and, wherein the structural cross-brace projects from the pillars beyond the suspension connectors so that the space in the occupant compartment between the pillars is substantially unobstructed by the structural cross-brace and, at least a portion of the structural cross-brace is accommodated within the occupant compartment.

  • Ejection seat water recovery
    Patent number: 11554870
    Abstract: An ejection seat system is described. The ejection seat system includes a seat frame for supporting an aircraft occupant. The seat frame includes one or more of a ballast material or an auto-inflating unit. By the ballast material or the auto-inflating unit, the seat frame may be positively buoyant in saltwater or freshwater for improved recovery of the seat frame. The ballast material may include one or more of a gas or foam. The auto-inflating unit may include one or more of a pump or a gas cartridge. Such flotation means may be included within an internal void of one or more of a seat bucket or a seat back of the seat frame.

  • GENERATION OF AN ULTRASHORT ION BUNCH
    Publication number: 20180308655
    Abstract: The invention refers to a method for generating an ultrashort ion bunch (22) comprising the steps of emitting a laser pulse (16) whose length is four periods or less, preferably one period, and whose power is 1 PW or more, preferably 10 PW or more; and irradiating a solid target (12) with said laser pulse (16), so as to create an ion bunch (22). The invention also refers to a corresponding system (10) for generating an ultrashort ion bunch (20) comprising the solid target (12), and a laser system (14) for generating the laser pulse (16) and irradiating the solid target (12) with the laser pulse (16), for creating an ion bunch (22).

  • Interface infrastructure for creating and interacting with web services
    Publication number: 20060150200
    Abstract: A web services namespace pertains to an infrastructure for enabling creation of a wide variety of applications. The infrastructure provides a foundation for building message-based applications of various scale and complexity. The infrastructure or framework provides APIs for basic messaging, secure messaging, reliable messaging and transacted messaging. In some embodiments, the associated APIs are factored into a hierarchy of namespaces in a manner that balances utility, usability, extensibility and versionability.

  • Enhanced testing for compliance with universal plug and play protocols
    Publication number: 20060100815
    Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for enhanced Universal Plug and Play (“UPnP™”) compliance testing. A control point (e.g., a computer system) and one or more devices (e.g., printers, wireless gateways, etc.) are network connectable (or are connected) to a common network. The control point includes a test tool that can execute scripts to simulate UPnP™ functionality. Using scripts allows more flexible and programmatic UPnP™ compliance testing. Multiple devices can be selected for testing thereby reducing the burden associated with individually testing devices on an isolated network. Test logs can be secured using digital signatures to reduce the likelihood of test logs being intentionally or inadvertently altered prior to being received at a certification authority.
