  • Publication number: 20240149373
    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a cold plate assembly include providing a base and a cover. The cover can be fixedly coupled to the base. Each of the base and the cover can include spaced internal ribs, which can form flow paths when the base and cover are fixedly coupled together. The internal ribs of the base and the cover can have spaced tabs that can be fixedly coupled to the other of the base or the cover. The base and the cover may also include spaced external or outer sacrificial ribs.

  • Patent number: 9418559
    Abstract: Techniques and systems are described that allow an air traffic display and/or avionics system of an aircraft to display and/or warn a pilot of aircraft targets for air traffic proximate to the aircraft or to suppress the display of on-ground air traffic targets. In some implementations, an integrated avionics system can use indirect information to determine whether an individual aircraft traffic target is to be presented to a pilot. For example, the integrated avionics system can determine whether an aircraft target is in proximity to the ground based on traffic tracking data corresponding to other aircraft.

  • Publication number: 20100077646
    Abstract: A quick-acquisition optical sight for short-distance aiming or viewing enhanced with an illuminated reticle, e.g., a red dot, and intended for installation on a conventional long-distance viewing apparatus, the combination thereof comprising an integral assembly consisting of a mounting part attachable directly to the tubular scope without any intermediate adapters and a housing with an optical system that is pivotally supported by the mounting part. In spite of the fact that the quick-acquisition sight is approximately 30% smaller and less heavy than the smallest existing sight of this type, it incorporates click-type mechanisms for adjusting the position of the sight optical axis relative to the optical axis of the scope.

  • Patent number: 7647721
    Abstract: A universal multifunctional cover for a quick-acquisition optical sight in the form of a box-like casing with an open front end, which in the sight-closing position of the cover is located in front of the optical lens, and with a rear end closed with a transparent medium. The cover is provided with a frame that supports an optical filter and has a radial outward projection that can be used as a foresight. The frame is pivotally supported by stretchable resilient members such as rubber strings so that the frame with the foresight and the filter can be switched between the following three positions: a first position in which the frame rests on the box-like casing, a second position in which the frame is installed in front of the optical lens with the foresight projecting upward, and a third position in which the frame is installed in front of the optical lens with the foresight projecting downward and closing the sensor.

  • Publication number: 20070161328
    Abstract: This patent application discloses an enclosure designed to comfortably hold a breast form prosthesis between the torso of a mastectomy patient and the cup of their bra or undergarment. The forward surface of the enclosure exhibits anti-skid material, preventing the enclosure from moving relative to the bra cup.
