  • Patent number: 6424804
    Abstract: A modular camera support and extension structure which removably mounts on the seat tracks of a conventional aircraft and extends through a cargo pod door during usage, including a box structure containing a plurality of vertical rails which support a tracking plate positioned inside the box structure with linear bearings around its periphery, slidably mounted on said rails for vertical movement from a retracted position to an extended position; a camera rotatably mounted on the bottom of said tracking plate about a vertical axis; a pair of actuating sprockets connected by a drive chain mounted on the box structure, the drive chain is connected to the tracking plate for moving the FLIR camera from its retracted position to its extended position; a box frame structure mounted on the aircraft skin which includes stops on the box frame which lockingly engage the tracking plate in its extended position.

  • Patent number: 6011243
    Abstract: A cabinet and control system for maintaining a food product within a predetermined temperature range for a holding period of time not exceeding a predetermined maximum time. The cabinet comprises a housing having a front panel and a passageway opening at the front panel. The passageway is capable of receiving at least two containers of the food product. A temperature element positioned in said passageway maintains the passageway within the predetermined temperature range. A processing circuit tracks the amount of time each container of food product remains within the passageway. The processing circuit provides a signal output indicating which container has been within said passageway the longest and an alarm signal when either container remains within said passageway beyond said maximum time. A display positioned on said housing proximate to said passageway receives the said signal output and indicates which container has been within the passageway the longest.
