  • Patent number: 11952124
    Abstract: An aircraft tray table may include a body with a defined interior cavity, a personal electronic device support, and a magnification lens. The personal electronic device support may be configured to hold a personal electronic device when the personal electronic device support is in a support deployed position. The magnification lens may be configured to fit within the interior cavity when the magnification lens is in a lens stowed position. The magnification lens may include a lens configured to magnify content displayed on the personal electronic device held by the personal electronic device support when the magnification lens is in a lens deployed position. The personal electronic device support may be parallel to the magnification lens when the personal electronic device is in the support deployed position and the magnification lens is in the lens deployed position.

  • Patent number: 11947711
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for real-time feature level software security are described herein. A request may be received from a computing device for data from the feature of the software application. The request for data may include authorization information of a user of the computing device. It may be identified that the feature of the software application contains code containing a reference to a security configuration service. A security configuration may be determined for the feature of the software application by comparing a resource identifier and a feature identifier of the feature of the software application to a set of security configurations of the security configuration service. The security configuration may provide access rules for the feature of the software application. A response may be sent to the computing device based on a comparison of the received authorization information of the user of the computing device to the determined security configuration.

  • Patent number: 8371422
    Abstract: A torque plate for a vehicle brake is comprised of a sheet metal body. The sheet metal body includes a center opening that defines a lateral axis and a plurality of mounting holes. The center opening receives an axle housing and the mounting holes are used to secure the vehicle brake to the torque plate. Each mounting hole is defined by a center axis that is non-parallel to the lateral axis.

  • Patent number: 6298955
    Abstract: An improved seal for use between an eccentric shaft and a brake caliper in an air disc brake system incorporates a flexible portion between the fixed portion which is fixed to the caliper and the floating portion which is received on the shaft. The flexible portion is preferably formed of a thinner rubber area, and also extends axially outward of both the fixed and floating areas. The flexible portion facilitates skewing and axial movement of the eccentric shaft within the caliper.

  • Patent number: 5738189
    Abstract: An adjustment mechanism for advancing the backing plate and friction material of a disc brake includes an over-torque clutch that provides a positive connection between inner and outer over-torque clutch members. In a preferred embodiment, spherical balls are forced into holes in both the inner and outer over-torque clutch members to allow rotation to be transmitted between inner and outer over-torque members. If the torque load exceeds a predetermined limit, then the balls move out of holes in at least one of the inner and outer over-torque clutch members. The spring force is preferably an axial force applied by a wave spring, which forces a washer to bias a plurality of balls into the holes.
