Patent number: 9643236Abstract: A thread rolling die includes a thread rolling region comprising a working surface including a thread form. The thread rolling region of the thread rolling die comprises a sintered cemented carbide material having a hardness in the range of 78 HRA to 89 HRA. In certain embodiments, the thread rolling die may further include at least one non-cemented carbide piece metallurgically bonded to the thread rolling region in an area of the thread rolling region that does not prevent a workpiece from contacting the working surface, and wherein the non-cemented carbide piece comprises at least one of a metallic region and a metal matrix composite region. Methods of forming a thread rolling die as embodied herein are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2009Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: LANDIS SOLUTIONS LLCInventors: Prakash K. Mirchandani, V. Brian Shook, Grayson L. Bowman, Matthew D. Brown

Patent number: 8360685Abstract: An autonomous underwater plow can include a frame, a plow assembly and a propulsion assembly. The plow assembly is fixed to the one end of the frame, while the propulsion assembly is pivotably attached to the other end. The propulsion assembly includes thrusters that are rigidly coupled to a float, and that provide a propulsion force perpendicular to the float buoyancy force. The plow sinks when placed in the water, but the float provides sufficient buoyancy so that the float end floats while the plow end is in contact with the ocean floor. This establishes a rake angle of between the frame and ocean floor. The plow requires less propulsion force for motion because part of the plow is floating, and requires less force to overcome obstacles on the ocean floor because the thrusters provides a constant horizontal propulsion force while the frame tilts to overcome the obstacle.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2010Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: The United States of America as Represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventors: Steve Whiteside, Robert Lee, Ronald Skala, Brian Shook, Paul Wade, Bret Thomson

Patent number: 8333535Abstract: An underwater plow includes a plow assembly that is attached to a frame. The plow assembly includes a blade portion, which defines a blade trough, and a sensor chute portion. The blade portion extends downwardly below a plane that is coincident with a longitudinal axis defined by the frame, while the chute portion extends upwardly above the same plane. A depressor arm is pivotably attached to the blade portion and biased to be in contact with the trough. The depressor arm has a groove that is sized to allow the cable, but not the sensors, to pass through the groove while the depressor arm is in contact with the trough. With this configuration, an array cable passes downward through the blade portion of the plow assembly and becomes buried in the ocean floor. Array sensors, however, are routed upward and pass through the chute portion of the plow assembly.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2010Date of Patent: December 18, 2012Assignee: The United States of America as Represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventors: Steve Whiteside, Robert Lee, Ronald Skala, Brian Shook, Paul Wade, Bret Thomson

Patent number: 8328466Abstract: An underwater plow can include a depressor cam and a chute cam that are pivotably attached to a blade portion. The blade portion can be formed with a trough and the depressor cam can be biased in the trough. The chute cam can be formed with a groove having a minimum thickness at its attached end and an increasing taper to a maximum thickness at its distal end. A sensor passing through the plow contacts the edge of the depressor cam, causing depressor cam rotation away from the trough. The sensor passes the depressor cam and pushes against the chute cam, which causes the chute cam to contra-rotate relative to the depressor cam until the sensor passes through the chute arm at is maximum thickness. Once the sensor passes through, the cams contra-rotate back to their respective biased positions.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2010Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: The United States of America as Represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventors: Brian Shook, Steve Whiteside, Robert Lee, Ronald Skala, Paul Wade, Bret Thomson
