Gary J. Pivovarov has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Continuous framework for shock, vibration and thermal isolation and motion accommodation
    Patent number: 10830302
    Abstract: Vibration isolator systems have continuous frameworks wherein the frameworks are formed for specific applications. The continuous frameworks have linkages and voids formed and located such that frequency, direction and magnitude of vibrations are accounted for. The linkages and voids configuration provides elasticity and compliance such that a wide selection of materials is available for effective use. The continuous framework can be configured to include active elements such as a control circuit. The active elements may further include electric and magnetic field generators. Further, elastic and insulating materials can be easily added to the framework.
