  • Publication number: 20050044712
    Abstract: A mobile platform interior panel is provided that includes a body formed by a low pressure injection process and at least one of a duct and a layer of insulation integrated with the body. The low pressure injection process allows the duct and insulation to be integrated with the body simultaneously with the forming of the panel. More specifically, the duct is integrated with the panel by forming at least one internal cavity within the panel as the panel is formed. Additionally, the insulation is integrated with the panel by forming the panel using a low pressure injection material having desired insulative properties.

  • Patent number: 6373004
    Abstract: A retention device for removably carrying a leverage arm on a switchgear cabinet includes a mounting member structured to be mounted on a housing of the switchgear cabinet and a tab structured to extend outwardly from the housing. The tab is formed with an opening that slidably receives a shank of the leverage arm therein, the opening being configured to resist movement of a head of the leverage arm through the opening. A moveable cover is positioned in relation to the retention device to retain the leverage arm on the retention device when the cover is in a closed position, yet permit the leverage arm to be removed from the retention device when the cover is in an open position.

  • Publication number: 20020005390
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a free-standing rack for hanging and supporting scuba diving or other wet equipment when not in use and particularly during cleaning, drying and storage thereof. The rack includes at least three support legs extending from a top point and a plurality of dive equipment holders attached to at least one of the supporting legs at points along its length. The rack of the present invention provides a free-standing and inherently stabile structure which can be easily collapsed for storage when not in use and quickly and easily expanded for use in a variety of locations. The rack is highly storable and portable in its collapsed state but is also movable in its expanded state, even with equipment supported thereon.

  • Patent number: 5809828
    Abstract: An airflow test device designed to be used in a clothes dryer. The device includes a retainer which is mounted to an outlet grate of the dryer drum. A vent card is removably supported a predetermined distance from the outlet grate by a support finger extending from the retainer. The vent card is supported in such a manner that a predetermined rate of airflow through the outlet grate during dryer operation moves the vent card toward the outlet grate. Movement of the vent card toward the outlet grate and off the support finger during clothes dryer operation signals that an adequate rate of airflow is passing through the outlet grate.

  • Patent number: 5611504
    Abstract: A semi-rigid, light weight insulation blanket is composed of a skeleton having porous cavities sandwiched between layers of fiber glass. The polyimide foam skeleton prevents sagging particularly in crown and upper sidewall areas of an aircraft thereby maintaining a predetermined offset from the skin fuselage reducing corrosion of the primary structure from moisture condensate. This configuration provides similar acoustic performance with reduced weight.
