Abstract: A referenced pressure valve for a fluid system having a housing including: an inner wall enclosing a cavity providing fluid communication between the inlet and the outlet; a rim in the cavity defining a bypass passage circumscribed outwardly by the inner wall and inwardly by the rim, an upstream passage located between an upstream end of the cavity and the rim, and a downstream passage located between the rim and a downstream end of the cavity. A rib extends outwardly from the rim to the inner wall through the bypass passage, and a piston assembly, received within a chamber circumscribed outwardly by the rim, includes a piston movable relative to the rim between a position in which the piston obstructs the flow path at the upstream passage and a position in which the piston is at least partially clear of the path to permit flow along the path.

Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for configuring and managing data shipper agents. A method may commence with receiving a list of one or more data shipper agents installed on one or more edge nodes associated with a user. A data shipper agent of the one or more data shipper agents may be installed on one of the one or more edge nodes. The method may continue with providing a graphical user interface that may enable the user to configure the one or more data shipper agents. The method may further include receiving selections of configuration parameters associated with at least one of the one or more data shipper agents. The method may then continue with receiving a configuration of the at least one of the one or more data shipper agents and automatically reconfiguring the configuration of the at least one of the one or more data shipper agents.

Abstract: A rotating assembly for a gas turbine engine has a balancing ring mounted to a first rotating component having a rotating unbalance about an axis of rotation. The ring is clocked at a circumferential position about the axis to counteract the rotating unbalance. A spacer is axially abutted against the first rotating component to set an axial position of the first rotating component relative to a second rotating component. The balancing ring is locked against rotation relative to the first rotating component in its circumferential position by the dual use spacer.

Abstract: An annular parts assembly for mounting onto a shaft of an aircraft engine is provided. The assembly comprises a first annular body having a surface defining a plurality of pulling features extending from a remainder of the surface, the pulling features circumferentially spaced apart on the surface. The assembly comprises a second annular body defining a balancing ring, the balancing ring concentric with the first annular body, the balancing ring having a plurality of protrusions and circumferential spaces between adjacent ones of the plurality of protrusions, the circumferential spaces accommodating the pulling features such that the pulling features of the first annular body and the protrusions intercalate.

Abstract: Data shipper agent management and configuration systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, an example method includes enrolling data shipper agents which are installed on edge nodes, receiving selections of one or more tags for the data shipper agents, each of the one or more tags representing one or more services assigned to the data shipper agents, configurations of the services being modifiable through the one or more GUIs using a configuration application programming interface (API), providing the one or more GUIs, receiving configurations for at least one of the modules of one of the data shipper agents through one of the one or more GUIs, and automatically reconfiguring the configurations to other ones of the data shipper agents automatically.

Abstract: A single agent management and configuration system is disclosed herein. The single software agent is installed on a central management server that is configured to provide an application programming interface (API) to configure and manage at least on one monitoring software application that can include data shipper software on an edge node. The single agent utilizes a common schema for enabling and configuring the monitoring software applications.

Abstract: An electric switch having a body (1) of insulating material which contains at least one recess (2) into which enter the ends (3a, 4a) of at least two terminals (3,4) the opposite ends of which (3b,4b) project outside the body, and a switch mechanism comprising an electrically-conducting element (5) fitted so as to slide in the recess (2) between first and second stable positions. The switch is characterized in that the electrically-conducting element (5) comprises a stirrup having an elastic middle part (6), contact points (8) and upwardly extending arms (9) that extend towards the opening (10) of the recess (2), appearing in windows (15) defined in the opening (10) on either side of an insulating element (14) that retains the stirrup (5) in the recess (2), the arms (9) constituting structure for moving the stirrup (5) between first and second positions.
