Abstract: A high-efficiency, stall-proof airfoil is an aircraft wing configuration whereby a motive force directly induces gaseous fluid flow across a lifting surface of the airfoil without requiring a movement of the wing through an air space. The airfoil is provided with means to control a pitch, a roll and a yaw motion and to control a position and stability of the aircraft. When not undergoing horizontal displacement, it provides highly efficient use of fuel resources, precluding the formation of drag and its incumbent power consumption. Air pressure at a bottom of the wing remains essentially ambient. Therefore, differential pressure between a lower surface of the wing and an upper surface of the wing maintains its maximum possible quantity. Virtually, all of the power consumed is utilized in a production of lift. Additionally, because lift is generated without regard to an angle-of-attack, forward speed, nor a configuration of a leading edge of the wing, the configuration is essentially stall proof.

Abstract: Cycling, self-checking, fail-open block valve system that continuously cycles such that the user of the block valve system can determine if the system is operational at all times. A dual port, tandem block valve body contains two block valves which alternate between full open and fully closed. The full open and full closing cycle is monitored for any changes, and the operator is alerted if one of the valves is not operating properly.

Abstract: The angular motion translator is a device with direct mechanical coupling which allows a user to reliably and durably change the angular relationship between two elements in a rotating frame (i.e. two output shafts) by changing the angular relationship between two elements in a static reference frame, whereby the change in the angular relationship of the elements in the rotating frame is proportional to the change in the angular relationship of the elements in the static reference frame. Essentially, the angular motion translator is comprised of two linked identical planetary gear sets facing one another as mirror images. Matching elements in the two planetary gear sets are held static, although one of the static elements may be rotated with respect to the other, matching elements are rigidly attached together so that they rotate as a single unit, and the remaining matching elements are attached to either the input shaft and the inner output shaft or the outer output shaft respectively.
