Abstract: An aircraft moveable element monitoring system is provided. An exemplary aircraft moveable element monitoring system includes a signal generator (108), a signal transmitter coil (110) electrically connected to the signal generator (108); a signal detector (112); a signal receiver coil (114) electrically connected to the signal detector (112); and one or more moveable element signal transmission units (115a-c). An exemplary moveable element signal transmission unit (115) includes a first signal transmission unit coil and a second signal transmission unit coil, the first signal transmission unit coil being electrically connected to the second signal transmission unit coil. Each moveable element signal transmission unit is configured to be installed on a respective moveable element of an aircraft. The signal transmitter coil, the one or more moveable element signal transmission units and the signal receiver coil form an inductively coupled transmission line.

Abstract: A notebook includes a support structure in the form of a plastic pad case having a support surface in the form of a pad case back wall; a number of pages each having a page binder edge and a page free edge and a page length from the page binder edge to the page free edge, and having at least two page binder holes adjacent to the page binder edge, the pages being stacked sequentially face to face to form a pad so that corresponding page binder holes register with each other; a binder passing through registering the page binder holes and binder axial passageway; a mounting shaft extending through the binder axial passageway; and at least one shaft mounting and spacing structure connected to the mounting shaft and connected to the support surface and spacing the mounting shaft outwardly from the support surface a distance less than the page length and positioning the mounting shaft to be substantially parallel with the support surface, and thereby defining between the mounting shaft and the support surface a pag

Abstract: A notebook includes several pages each having a page binder edge and a page free edge, and having at least two page binder holes adjacent to the page binder edge, the pages being stacked sequentially face to face to form a pad so that corresponding page binder holes register with each other; a wire binder passing through registering the page binder holes; and a cover including a cover sheet portion with a cover free edge and with a cover binder edge having a binder engaging slat portion spaced apart and substantially parallel with the cover binder edge defining a page passing slot through which the wire binder passes; so that the page free edge of each forward most page can be arched over the remainder of the forward most page, fitted into and rotated about the wire binder entirely through the page passing slot and placed against the back of the pad.

Abstract: A computerized storage and selection system is provided that conveniently stores, selects, and identifies the storage location for retrieval by the user of a large number of audio, visual, and information storage media devices such as discs, compact discs, tapes, cassettes, CD-ROMs, and the like. The system selects the storage location based upon user input, including partial or fragmentary input. A system computer optically senses and stores the content and selected storage location of each media device. The system responds to user requests for specific media by recalling the storage location of the disc and identifying the location for quick retrieval by the user.
