Patent number: 11949294Abstract: An assembly comprises a resistor plate for a rotating rectifier assembly (RRA). A shaft bore is defined through the resistor plate for passage of a shaft of an electrical machine, and the resistor plate defines a main annular body around the shaft bore. A first protrusion extends radially outward from the main annular body, so that a first pin bore extends through the first protrusion. At least one contact band is seated in a the pin bore of the resistor plate for mounting a direct current (DC) pin to the resistor plate.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Hamilton Sundstrand CorporationInventors: Kyle S. Sirbasku, Dhaval Patel, Andrew R. Wilkinson, Mary Christelle Ann Calacal, Yaser J. Isa, Edward C. Allen, Duane C. Johnson

Patent number: 9416525Abstract: A water closet bolt comprises an upper end and a lower end with a threaded body extending therebetween. The lower end includes an oblong foot and the upper end includes a male or female notch for visually indicating the orientation of the long axis of the oblong foot. The notch also serves as a gripping surface to aid the installer in the installation of the toilet. Furthermore, the bottom of the notch acts as a break-off point to aid the installer in removing an excess portion of the bolt after the completing the installation.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2011Date of Patent: August 16, 2016Assignee: Shurset Corp.Inventors: Charles W. Johnson, Andrew R. Johnson
