Patent number: 7005833Abstract: A generator controller (4) is provided which is able to detect and respond to failure of a generator output voltage sensor, whilst being able to distinguish voltage sensor failure from output voltage collapse due to the presence of an overload or short circuit condition. The presence of a voltage sensor failure is indicated by the measured output voltage being below a first voltage threshold whilst the output current is also below a current threshold.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2003Date of Patent: February 28, 2006Assignee: Goodrich Control Systems LimitedInventor: Christopher John Adams

Patent number: 6677685Abstract: A clamp pressure controller for a variable ratio belt drive system for a generator is provided. The controller monitors the voltage at the output of the generator. If this falls the controller increases the clamp pressure so as to prepare the drive system for the additional torque/force it will be required to transmit. The increase in clamp pressure is rapid so as to prevent belt slip from occurring.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2001Date of Patent: January 13, 2004Assignee: Goodrich Control Systems LimitedInventors: Dominique Lucienne Pfleger, Christopher John Adams, Stephen Mark Hearn, Raymond Richard Bomford

Patent number: 6569821Abstract: An overbased metal detergent having friction-modifying properties comprises colloidal inorganic base particles stably dispersed in an oil of lubricating viscosity. The colloidal particles constitute from 15 to 40 mass % of the detergent, and a stabilizing system constitutes from 20 to 45 mass % thereof, the balance being the oil of lubricating viscosity. The stabilizing system is the mixture obtained by combining an oil-soluble detergent component and from 25 to 75 mass % of an aliphatic amide having from 10 to 30 carbon atoms.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2000Date of Patent: May 27, 2003Assignee: Infineum USA L.P.Inventors: Tuncel Ibrahim, John A Cleverley, Phillip Skinner, Jane Rachel Galsworthy, Christopher John Adams, Rudi ter Haar
