  • Patent number: 5023791
    Abstract: An automated test apparatus (10) for testing the flight controls system of an aircraft (12) as part of an integrated system for testing a plurality of aircraft systems. The automated test apparatus includes a system controller (16) having memory (18) for storing programmed instructions that control operation of the automated test apparatus, and for storing resulting flight controls system test data. The automated test apparatus includes a keyboard (20), a touch screen (24), and a tape drive (22) for entering programmed instructions and other information into the automated test apparatus, and for outputting test data from the system controller. Instruments (26) included in the automated test apparatus and controlled by the system controller generate test signals that are input to the aircraft's flight controls system, and monitor resulting test data signals that are produced by the flight controls system.

  • Patent number: 4876985
    Abstract: A method of and apparatus for raising shell fish such as giant clams wherein fertilized eggs are obtained under laboratory conditions and then placed in a larvae tank. The tank float in sea water and has a platform base adapted to support juvenile clams during growth and flexible non-permeable side walls suspended from a ring of floats. The weight of the base tensions the side walls to a desired degree, allowing natural ocean movement to be transmitted to the water within the floating tank. At predetermined growth stages filtered ports are opened in the side walls allowing ocean water to flow through the larvae tank.
