Abstract: A device for extracting oil, the oil extracting device comprising: a hammer-shear olive milling grinder, a malaxation bowl for malaxation of milled olives having at least one opening; at least one filter for separating malaxation solids from liquids, said filter is located within said opening. The device is especially adapted to home users and can be placed on a counter, such as a kitchen counter. The subject matter further includes a process for obtaining olive oil, comprising the steps of malaxation of milled olives in a malaxation bowl, the malaxation bowl comprising at least one filter configured for separating solids from liquids and collecting oil.

Abstract: Methods are provided for treating freshly harvested olives to substantially retain the quality of oil contained therewithin for enabling production of high quality olive oil from said treated olives at a prolonged time after harvest and treated freshly harvested olives with retained oil qualities characterized in that the oil extracted therefrom after a prolonged storage time meets the standards of the IOC for Virgin Olive Oils.

Abstract: A system and method for enhancing the fuel stores volume of an aerial vehicle is disclosed. An extended external fuel stores configuration utilizes an alternative fuel transfer path. An external fuel tank is suspended on a external fuel tank carrier pylon uploaded on a outboard wing “pseudo-wet” stores station. The pylon is linked to a dual functionality external fuel tank carrier pylon uploaded on an inboard wing “wet” station. The pylon is capable of transferring fuel from an external fuel container to the aircraft fuel system and capable of transmitting, and controlling the fuel store in the auxiliary fuel container attached to the pylon uploaded on a outboard wing “pseudo-wet” station. An externally mounted stores transfer kit links the inboard pylon and the outboard pylon.

Abstract: A transfer of ordnance units from a first aerial vehicle to a second aerial vehicle performed while both vehicles are airborne. The first aircraft is used as an ordnance storage, ordnance delivery and ordnance supplier platform. The second aircraft has the functionality and capability of delivering the received ordnance to designated targets. The first aircraft includes an ordnance storage apparatus, an ordnance transfer assembly, a computer-based highly accurate ordnance transfer control apparatus, and an ordnance transfer apparatus operating crew. The ordnance transfer assembly establishes temporarily a transfer link between the aircraft and utilizes an ordnance conveyor mechanism for the delivery of the ordnance units. The second aircraft includes a multi-use multi-purpose pylon that receives the transferred ordnance in the proper manner. The aircrafts can be uninhabited.

Abstract: The subject matter discloses a method of handling weight data related to transportation, comprising receiving weight data from a passenger, a representative, or the passenger; accumulating the weight data associated with a specific trip and determining the amount of fuel required for the specific trip as a function of the accumulated weight data.

Abstract: A system and method for the conversion of fuel tanks, detachably mountable on the exterior of an aerial vehicle, into high volume, high capacity, diverse functionality and aerodynamically efficient airborne stores is disclosed. A conventional external fuel drop tank is modified such that the exterior shape of the tank is substantially retained while the interior of the tank is suitable restructured to allow for the introduction of diverse airborne stores, associated airborne store mounting means, control and monitoring means and support means therein, which replace the fuel store. The airborne store is suitably interfaced to the stores control and management system of the aerial vehicle. The airborne store is integrated into a new external stores configuration The enhanced airborne store will have aerodynamic characteristics substantially similar to the original external fuel tank while its payload capacity is substantially improved.

Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for optimizing the conduct of a close-in air combat are disclosed. A computing device is operative in the analysis of a close-in air combat situation. The computing device stores and utilizes one or more aerial aircraft-specific, weapon systems-specific and close-in air combat-situation-specific information. The computing device is operative in the analysis of the current air combat situation (12) and in the generation of a flight control recommendation (40). Consequently, the recommendation is converted into an indication having visual or audio format to be communicated to the operating crew of the aerial vehicle. The recommendation could further to be converted into specific flight control/energy commands and to be introduced directly to the control systems of the aircraft.

Abstract: A gun pod, mounted on a fixed-wing aerial vehicle, stores, delivers, controls and supports a controllable movement gun unit. The gun pod includes a flexible gun mount, gun movement actuators, gun movement controllers, a standalone range finder, a standalone processor, and standalone sensors for capturing dynamically environmental data and for controlling the movement of the gun unit. The gun is provided with allowable ranges of movement in the elevation and the azimuth where the ranges are determined in accordance with the flight envelope of the aerial vehicle, the characteristics of the gun unit and the mounting location of the gun pod. The movement of the gun is either controlled manually or automatically.

Abstract: A transfer of ordnance units (20) from a first aerial vehicle (10) to a second aerial vehicle (14) performed while both vehicles are airborne. The first aircraft (10) is used as an ordnance storage, ordnance delivery and ordnance supplier platform. The second aircraft (14) has the functionality and capability of delivering the received ordnance (20) to designated targets. The first aircraft (10) includes an ordnance storage apparatus, an ordnance transfer assembly (22), a computer-based highly accurate ordnance transfer control apparatus, and an ordnance transfer apparatus operating crew. The ordnance transfer assembly (22) establishes temporarily a transfer link between the aircraft and utilizes an ordnance conveyor mechanism for the delivery of the ordnance units (20). The second aircraft (14) includes a multi-use multi-purpose pylon (16) that receives the transferred ordnance (20) in the proper manner. The aircrafts can be uninhabited.
