Abstract: Systems, methods, and corresponding non-transitory computer readable media describe a proposed system adapted as a platform governing the loading of data in a multiparty secure computing environment. In the multiparty secure computing environment described herein, multiple parties are able to load their secure information into a data warehouse having specific secure processing adaptations that limit both access and interactions with data stored thereon.

Abstract: Techniques for providing multifaceted message communication. A system utilizing such techniques can include a multifaceted message platform alias management system, a multifaceted message instance interaction control system, and a multifaceted message transaction record management system. A method utilizing such techniques can include management of aliases used in controlling multifaceted message communication, control of multifaceted message interaction, and management of a transaction record for a multifaceted message.

Abstract: Provided is an actuator characterized by the use of a shuttle that shifts in response to an overload. The shuttle is movable axially relative to a rotary input member by continued rotation of the rotary input member so that a stop on the shuttle moves from an ambush position allowing free rotation of the rotary input member to a blocking position preventing further rotation of the rotary input member. In this way, the shuttle prevents rotation of a rotary input member during an overload of a control surface.

Abstract: A direct acting force limiting actuator wherein the actuator output force either directly or indirectly causes significant drag on a rotary input shaft rather than on the translating output member. Consequently, input energy is dissipated before the actuator gear train mechanical advantage amplifies the reaction forces.

Abstract: The present invention provides an actuator characterized by the use of a shuttle that shifts in response to an overload. The shuttle is movable axially relative to a rotary input member by continued rotation of the rotary input member so that a stop on the shuttle moves from an ambush position allowing free rotation of the rotary input member to a blocking position preventing further rotation of the rotary input member. In this way, the shuttle can be used to prevent rotation of a rotary input member during an overload of a control surface, thereby preventing damage to the actuator.

Abstract: A collet end effector comprises two jaws pivotably mounted in a housing for movement between an open and a closed position. A collet sleeve surrounds the jaws and is slidably mounted in the housing for movement along the jaws toward and away from a gripping end of the jaws. Each of the jaws has a cam surface; the collet sleeve has collet bearings for riding along the cam surface. The cam surface has a ramp region configured such that as the collet sleeve moves toward the jaws gripping end while the collet bearings ride along the ramp region, the jaws move toward the jaws closed position. The cam surface also has a dwell region extending from the ramp region toward the jaw gripping end configured such that as the collet sleeve moves toward the jaw gripping end while the collet bearings ride along the dwell region, the jaws are maintained in the jaw closed position.
