Abstract: A brake actuator for an aircraft braking system, comprising a housing, a sleeve, an annular member mounted to the housing extending radially inwardly for engagement with the ratchet teeth of the sleeve, a piston slidable along an axis (X), a piston head disposed at a first end of the pin portion, a cap disposed at a second end of the pin portion for operative engagement with a brake element of the housing, and a second position in which the piston head is drivingly disengaged from the sleeve.

Abstract: A filter having a hollow body extending longitudinally between a first end and a second end and comprising a plurality of holes formed through said body, and a first compliant section formed in said body, said compliant section comprising a plurality of slits which extend through said body and in a circumferential direction around said filter. A nozzle/filter assembly is also described as well as a method for making the same.

Abstract: An electromagnetic device is disclosed, the electromagnetic device comprising a core support having an exterior surface comprising at least one radial protrusion, a tubular magnetic core positioned around a portion of the length of the core support, the tubular magnetic core having an interior surface, at least one indent located in the interior surface of the tubular magnetic core, wherein the at least one protrusion is located within the at least one indent to prevent relative longitudinal movement between the core support and tubular magnetic core, and a primary coil and at least one secondary coil, each coil positioned around a portion of a length of the tubular magnetic core.
