Publication number: 20210372879Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting leaks in flexible packets with a test bed, a pressure chamber to apply a first pressure and a second pressure to the packet, producing a first volume and second volume for the packet. An illumination source and an illumination detector to produce a first image dataset of the packet at the first pressure and a second image dataset of the packet at the second pressure, a processor connected to the illumination detector to receive the first and second image datasets and determine the first volume and the second volume and use the first volume and the second volume to determine a change in volume, compare the change of volume with a threshold and when the change of volume is greater than the threshold determine the packet is leak-free and when the change of volume is less than the threshold determines the packet has a leak.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2021Publication date: December 2, 2021Inventors: Philip COOPER, Adam OSBORNE, Marcin KUSNIERZ

Patent number: 10100873Abstract: A bushing is provided for adjusting to differences in diameter between concentric elements of an assembly. The bushing may be provided with a plurality of leaf springs coupled to one another to form parts of a wall. The bushing wall may have a first contact face and a second contact face opposite the first contact face. The bushing wall may also be configured to be positioned in a generally annular shape. Each of the leaf springs forming part of the bushing wall may be radially deflectable relative to each of the other leaf springs in order to self-align the bushing by the resilient response of each leaf spring.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2014Date of Patent: October 16, 2018Assignee: FORD GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: James Philip Cooper, Jack E. Barry, Joseph Washnock, Dale Killins, Mark Eubank, Jennifer Laz, John Crossman

Patent number: 10005488Abstract: A steering assistance actuator for a vehicle includes a actuator shaft, a torque sensor, a motor, a drive mechanism and a drive housing. The actuator shaft is rotatable about a first axis. The actuator shaft includes an integral torque sensor. The motor has an output shaft rotatable about a second axis. The second axis is substantially parallel to the first axis. The drive mechanism is disposed between and drivingly connects the motor and the steering column. The drive mechanism provides a speed reduction from the motor to the actuator shaft. The drive housing encloses the torque sensor and the drive mechanism and is separate from a steering gear. The drive housing also has a mounting feature to which a housing of the motor is fixed. The drive housing also has a first bearing and a second bearing rotatably supporting the actuator shaft in the drive housing.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2016Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: FORD GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Bradley G. Hochrein, Jack E. Barry, James Philip Cooper, Alex Parker, Joseph Washnock, Salvador Toledo, Timothy Patrick Diez, Thomas Philip Flanagan
