Patent number: 10042962Abstract: An apparatus is provided for implementation of a mid-surface modeler including a receiver, selector, clusterer and mid-surface constructor. The receiver is to receive a solid model of a structural product composed of structural components, with the solid model representing the components by a collection of geometry. The selector is to select a group of geometry from the geometry in the solid model, with the group of geometry having approximately the same shape, and being perpendicular to an axis of a local coordinate system. The clusterer is to cluster geometry of the group of geometry into one or more clusters of geometry based on a relationship between the geometry, with each cluster of the cluster(s) representing a component of the component(s). And the mid-surface constructor is to construct a mid-surface model of the product, including computation of respective one or more mid-surfaces for the cluster(s).Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2014Date of Patent: August 7, 2018Assignee: THE BOEING COMPANYInventors: Omid B.

Patent number: 9754053Abstract: There is provided a system for reading geometric data from parametric model or a nonparametric model from a CAD model file. The system has a processor and an interface application, which when executed by the processor, is configured to operably receive automatically, using a first interface application, an input file that includes data representing one or more components of a three-dimensional model, and is further configured to operably determine, using the first interface application, a type of a part represented by the three-dimensional model. The first interface application has instructions, one or more algorithms, or a combination thereof, and is further configured to automatically operably identify, select, and group geometric data associated with specific geometric data of the three-dimensional model, based on a set of parametric rules. The processor writes extracted specific geometric data to a first geometry intermediate output file.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2014Date of Patent: September 5, 2017Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Mohammad Ali Heidari, Anthony K.

Patent number: 9115758Abstract: In one example, an FDB motor having a shield member is provided. In one example, the method includes disposing a first member and a second member for relative rotation about an axis of rotation. An annular shield member is attached to the first member, the shield member disposed adjacent a fluid reservoir for containing a bearing fluid. The reservoir is filled through an aperture (e.g., a fill hole) in the shield member. Thereafter, the aperture is at least partially sealed. The aperture may be hermetically sealed via one or more laser pulses. In other examples, a two piece shield is provided for shielding a reservoir without a fill hole.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2012Date of Patent: August 25, 2015Assignee: Seagate Technology LLCInventors: Troy M. Herndon, James S. Lee, Jeffry A. Leblanc, Robert A. Nottingham, Norbert S. Parsoneault, Thaveesinn Vasavakul, James S. Bowdoin, Christopher M. Woldemar, Jerry J. Weingord
