  • NOSE GEAR STEERING APPARATUS FOR SHIPBOARD OPERATIONS
    Publication number: 20190168865
    Abstract: A steering assembly includes a movable anchor. Movement of the anchor in a first direction is restricted. A first linkage is coupled to the anchor and a second linkage it rotatably coupled to the first linkage. The second linkage is configured to couple to a contactor. A drive mechanism moves the second linkage relative to the first linkage. At least one of moving the second linkage and moving the anchor maneuvers the contactor to a desired position.
    Type: Application
    Filed: January 9, 2019
    Publication date: June 6, 2019
    Inventors: William E. Hovan, Andrew Varga, Christopher A. Bresh, Jeffrey E. Hunt, John Boath, Peter Kummer, David Klusek, David A. Houser, Ramon Estevez, Jay Hurley, Todd Haeg

  • Test stand for fuel components using low viscosity/high flashpoint fuel look-alike
    Patent number: 6260426
    Abstract: A test stand and method for calibrating aircraft fuel components which utilizes a fuel look-alike with a flash point above 180° F. and a viscosity below 2.8. Furthermore, the look-alike has the specific gravity and dielectric constant similar to that of aircraft fuel. An operator sets input parameters and adjusts the components until the desired output parameters are attained.
