Patent number: 10155590Abstract: An override bypass assembly comprises a cable and a pulley wheel operably connected to the cable. The cable in operation rotates the pulley wheel when tension is applied to the cable. The override bypass assembly also comprises a telescoping cylinder assembly operably connected to the pulley wheel. The pulley wheel in operation moves the telescoping cylinder assembly to an unlocked position. The override bypass assembly further comprises a biasing mechanism operably connected to at least one of the pulley wheel and the telescoping cylinder assembly. The biasing mechanism in operation moves the telescoping cylinder to a locked position when tension applied to the cable is relieved.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2016Date of Patent: December 18, 2018Assignee: GOODRICH CORPORATIONInventors: Kenneth J. Davis, Patrick Emmett Hyde, Scott H. Tedtman

Patent number: 10155591Abstract: A rotational brake assembly comprises: a swivel disc having an outer diameter and a plurality of locking holes proximate the outer diameter; a cam having an angled slot; a lifting pin located within the angled slot of the cam; and a rotational brake pin operably connected to the lifting pin. The cam in operation moves to at least one of a locked position and an unlocked position based on an input. The lifting pin in operation moves along the angled slot when the cam moves. The rotational brake pin in operation moves due to motion of the cam. The rotational brake pin in operation moves from an engaged position with the swivel disc to a disengaged position, when the cam moves from the locked to the unlocked position. The rotational brake pin in operation moves to the engaged position, when the cam moves to the locked position.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2016Date of Patent: December 18, 2018Assignee: GOODRICH CORPORATIONInventors: Kenneth J. Davis, Patrick Emmett Hyde, Scott H. Tedtman

Patent number: 9908446Abstract: A seat locking mechanism comprises a plurality of positional brake mechanisms including a longitudinal brake assembly, a lateral brake assembly, and a rotational brake assembly; and an electric motor assembly operably connected to each of the plurality of positional brake mechanisms. The electric motor assembly comprises: a drive motor; a clutch system located between the drive motor and the plurality of positional brake mechanisms; and a solenoid operably connected to the clutch system. The solenoid in operation engages the clutch system to operably connect the electric motor to the plurality of positional brake mechanisms when the electric motor assembly is activated and disengages the clutch system to operably disconnect the electric motor to the plurality of positional brake mechanisms when the electric motor assembly is deactivated. The electric motor assembly in operation moves the plurality of positional brake mechanisms to at least one of a locked position and unlocked position.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2016Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: GOODRICH CORPORATIONInventors: Kenneth J. Davis, Patrick Emmett Hyde, Scott H. Tedtman
