  • Publication number: 20030020254
    Abstract: A bicycle drive mechanism which allows desynchronized pedaling. Pedals connected to shuttles are mounted in rail guides for generally linear movement. The pedals are elastically connected to each other which allows each pedal to move independently of each other for at least two inches of desynchronized motion. A drive element is mounted around two approximately equally size sprockets. Pushing each pedal either pushes or pulls the drive element around the sprocket. The rotation of the sprockets drives a standard bicycle gear sprocket and chain mechanism to power the rear wheel of a bicycle.

  • Patent number: 4458296
    Abstract: A mounting frame for avionic trays which accommodates various tray sizes and provides a structrual member which also serves as a wire bundle and terminal block support and provides for an integral plenum that receives hot air and distributes cooling air. A seal and orifice assembly feature in the shelf assembly includes seal cross section geometry suitable for accommodating an adjustable lip feature which adapts to the variable tolerance encountered in the avionic box tray assembly interface. The metal ground terminal block utilizes poke-home electrical pins and sockets which are mounted to structure with rivets, thereby establishing ground contact with the aircraft structure.
