  • Patent number: 10457379
    Abstract: A system and method for a number of backup systems in an aircraft. The apparatus comprises a movement system; a latch system; a lock system; and at least one of a backup valve, a backup actuator, or a backup power source connected to at least one of the movement system, the latch system, or the lock system. The movement system has a first number of actuators and is connected to a hydraulic power source. The latch system has a second number of actuators and is connected to the hydraulic power source. The lock system has a third number of actuators and is connected to the hydraulic power source.

  • Patent number: 9823670
    Abstract: An automatic engine driven pump (EDP) depressurization system for an aircraft is disclosed. The aircraft includes at least two EDPs driven by a main engine for converting mechanical power provided by the main engine into hydraulic power for distribution by a hydraulic system. The EDP depressurization system includes a depressurization device corresponding to each of the at least two EDPs and a control module. The depressurization devices are each energized to depressurize a respective EDP. The control module is in signal communication with each of the depressurization devices. The control module includes control logic for automatically generating a depressurization signal that energizes one of the depressurization devices based on a plurality of operational conditions of the aircraft.

  • Patent number: 6675603
    Abstract: A sealed storage pan assembly for a refrigerator quick chill and thaw system includes a frame, a pan suspended from the frame for slide-out movement upon frame rail assemblies and pan slide members, and a sliding cover assembly. A top surface of the frame and a rear wall of the pan each include a cutout portion for receiving and sealingly engaging an air handler unit for producing convective airflow within the pan. The sliding cover assembly includes a plate seal that compresses seals mounted on rail assemblies of the frame and also compresses a slide cover seal that extends between the frame rail assemblies when the pan is in a closed position. The sliding cover assembly also includes a front seal that is engaged by a front cover of the pan when the pan is in the closed position. Thus, the pan is sealed around the front, sides, rear, and sliding cover interface of the pan.
