Publication number: 20130233423Abstract: This disclosure describes embodiments of a system and device to prevent damage that can occur during an over-speed condition in a turbo-machine. The embodiment includes a fluid circuit with a header, which couples to the turbo-machine, and a hydraulic circuit through which fluid can evacuate the header to a drain. The hydraulic circuit includes a trip header manifold with a pilot element in flow connection with a drain valve element that has an actuator to regulate the flow of fluid from the header. In one example, the pilot element uses solenoid valves to change the pressure of a fluid in the drain valve element and, in particular, maintains the actuator in a first position to prevent fluid to evacuate during normal operating conditions at the turbo-machine. When the over-speed condition occurs the actuator moves to a second position to place the header in flow connection with the drain.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2012Publication date: September 12, 2013Applicant: General Electronic CompanyInventors: Brent Allan Dietrich, Ricardo Stack, John Kirk Foundoulis, Steven Jackson Foss

Patent number: 7463971Abstract: An electronic fueling data acquisition and wireless communications delivery system. The unit is mounted on Aircraft Fueling Vehicles and Aircraft Fuel Servicing Hydrant Vehicles (Hydrant Vehicles) and is hardwired to an external pulse transmitter. The pulse transmitter transmits pulse signals proportional to the volume of fuel that is being pumped. A software configurable hardware filter attenuates the input signal which is then counted by a pulse accumulator. When fueling ceases, the application software can convert the pulse signal values to an equivalent volumetric total. The information can then be wirelessly communicated to other devices without the need for maintaining paper hard copies.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2005Date of Patent: December 9, 2008Assignee: Varec, Inc.Inventors: Dirk Holcomb, Keith Coggins, Steven Jackson

Patent number: 7376495Abstract: A fueling agent operates a fueling agent client device for collecting and generating transaction data relating to a fueling transaction. The fueling agent client device transmits the transaction data to a fuel management server, for example, via a wireless communications link. The fuel management server stores the transaction data in a transaction record. The transaction data includes final fuel load data indicating an amount of fuel dispensed during the fueling transaction. Selected transaction data is retrieved from the transaction record and is delivered to a data communications system for transmission to a receiver. The receiver may be in the cockpit of an aircraft. An aircraft data communication system may be a digital data link system for transmitting data to and from the aircraft via VHF radio, such as ACARS. The fuel management server may communicate with an aircraft data communication system directly, or indirectly via an airline computer system.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2005Date of Patent: May 20, 2008Assignee: Varec, Inc.Inventors: Keith Coggins, Steven Jackson, Timothy Lee Archer, John Eric Simmons, Derek Blagg

Patent number: 7035767Abstract: A method and system integrates the monitoring of system components and detecting errors or potential problems (or both) in components of bulk fuel distribution facilities. Generally, the method and system includes a diagnostic support module for identifying what stand alone software modules, what fuel hardware, and what software interfaces/drivers associated with the fuel hardware are present in a bulk fuel distribution facility. After the diagnostic support module identifies the unique system components of a particular bulk fuel facility that can include software and fuel hardware, the diagnostic support module can perform system checks of the system components to determine if any system components are missing or if errors or potential problems (or any combination thereof) may exist in a particular bulk fuel distribution facility. The system checks performed by the diagnostic support module can include comparing information collected from the system components against a predetermined set of validation rules.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2004Date of Patent: April 25, 2006Assignee: Varec, Inc.Inventors: Tim Archer, Warren Gray, Warren Sutcliffe, Xiaojing (Amanda) Sang, Steven Jackson

Patent number: 6992757Abstract: A level transmitter can generate a level measurement signal according to the position of a float that follows fluid level in a tank. The transmitter can comprise an optical encoder with a patterned disk that is linked to the float so that fluid level change produces disk rotation. An array of optical sensors positioned on one side of the disk can read reflective and absorptive patches attached to the disk's surface to identify disk position and disk rotation. One or more of the sensors can collect a signal from a reference area of the disk. Circuitry can compare the signals output by each data sensor to the reference signal to enhance binary classification of each acquired data signal. The transmitter can operate in multiple encoding modes, each of which can provide a level of redundancy.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2004Date of Patent: January 31, 2006Assignee: Varec, Inc.Inventors: Dirk Holcomb, Steven Jackson
