Publication number: 20230278730Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a robotically controlled satellite refueling tool and associated robotically controlled support and site preparation tools which facilitates on-orbit refueling by teleoperation of fill/drain valves of various designs and dimensions on satellites not originally prepared for on-orbit servicing, through the installation of quick connect safety valves, using vision-based feedback as well as feedback from sensors embedded in the refueling tool to operate a suite of adaptable and adjustable mechanisms. The refueling tool has an open architecture to allow a refueling tool vision system to see the fill/drain valve and the section of the refueling tool that is engaged with the fill/drain valve. The support tools include a blanket cutter tool, a blanket handler tool, a wire cutter tool, a gripper tool, and the site preparation tools include a B-nut removal tool and a crush seal removal tool.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: ANDREW PAUL TURNER, TEJ SACHDEV, ANDREW SCOTT OGILVIE, NATALIE PANEK, STEVE FISHER, MICHAEL HONEYBROWN, DREW ALEXANDER GRANDY, VICTOR NIFO

Patent number: 8939146Abstract: An apparatus and system are disclosed to extract breathable air from snow via a protective helmet. The apparatus includes a protective structure, at least one air intake cavity, and a mouthpiece. The protective structure defines an inner cavity and an outer surface. A portion of a user's head may be placed within the inner cavity. The air intake cavity or cavities are disposed on the outer surface of the protective structure. The mouthpiece is in fluid communication with the air intake cavity or cavities. Additionally, the mouthpiece is configured to allow a user to draw intake air from ambient snow through the one or more intake cavities and to the user's mouth upon inhalation. Advantageously, the apparatus and system provide a reliable mechanism for drawing air from ambient snow when a user, especially the user's face or head, is at least partially buried in the snow.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2012Date of Patent: January 27, 2015Inventor: Scott A.

Patent number: 8196582Abstract: An apparatus and system are disclosed to extract breathable air from snow via an air extraction backpack. The apparatus includes an air-permeable extraction assembly that is attached to a backpack. The air-permeable extraction assembly has an air intake cavity. An air-permeable membrane covers the air intake cavity. A mouthpiece is in fluid communication with the air intake cavity. The mouthpiece draws intake air through the air intake cavity upon inhalation by a user. A transfer guide passes intake air from the air-permeable extraction assembly to the mouthpiece upon inhalation by the user.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2010Date of Patent: June 12, 2012Inventor: Scott A. Ogilvie

Publication number: 20060046645Abstract: A method for a requesting cell phone includes (1) generating a request to communicate with a base station, (2) transmitting the request to a repeater cell phone, and (3) upon receiving a response to the request, transmitting data to the repeater phone for relay to the base station. A method for the repeater phone includes (1) upon receiving the request, appending its identifier in a repeater phone list in the request, (2) transmitting the request to the base station or another repeater phone, (4) upon receiving the response to the request, relaying the response to the requesting phone, and (5) relaying data between the requesting phone and the base station. A method for the base station includes (1) upon receiving the request, transmitting the response through the last repeater phone in the list and (2) communicating with the requesting phone through the repeater phones in the list.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2004Publication date: March 2, 2006Inventor: Scott Ogilvie

Patent number: 4829425Abstract: An I/O processor for controlling data transfer between a local bus and an I/O bus. An Execution Unit, an I/O bus sequencer, and a local bus sequencer are connected to a register file. The register file is uniformly addressed and each of the Execution Unit, the local bus sequencer, and the I/O bus sequencer have read/write access to the register file. The register file is comprised of a plurality of register sets. The Execution Unit includes a programmed processor which is programmed to allocate the register sets among tasks running on the processor by passing register-set descriptors between the tasks in the form of messages. The local bus sequencer includes a packet-oriented multiprocessor bus, there being a variable number of bytes in each of the packets. The I/O sequencer includes logic for multibyte sequencing of data at a bus-dependent data rate between the I/O bus and the register file. Each of the tasks includes a task frame, each task frame including register-set pointers.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 1988Date of Patent: May 9, 1989Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: William L. Bain, Jr., David G. Carson, George W. Cox, Robert C. Duzett, Brad W. Hosler, Scott A. Ogilvie, Craig B. Peterson, John L. Wipfli
