  • Patent number: 12337435
    Abstract: A buffer and self-feeding apparatus includes a polishing device, a pump assembly, a pressurized reservoir, a collapsible cartridge, and a backing plate. The polishing device provides rotational energy to the backing plate as the backing plate is rotatably mounted to a spindle shaft of the polishing device. The backing plate functions as a rotational base to receive a polishing pad. The pressurized reservoir is mounted onto the casing and compressionally holds the collapsible reservoir that is filled with a quantity of polishing compound. The pump assembly is mounted onto the polishing device and is in fluid communication with the collapsible reservoir so that the user can selectively operate the pump assembly to dispense polishing compound onto the polishing pad without having to shut-off the polishing device.

  • Publication number: 20250146213
    Abstract: This invention relates to a process for making phenolic fatty acid compounds having a reduced phenolic ester content. The invention also relates to method for chemically bonding a phenolic resin with a non-phenolic polymer (e.g., a synthetic fabric). The method comprises contacting a phenolic fatty acid compound with a non-phenolic polymer to introduce a hydroxy phenyl functional group into the non-phenolic polymer; and reacting the hydroxy phenyl functional group contained in the non-phenolic polymer with a phenolic resin or a phenolic crosslinker composition capable of forming a phenolic resin, to chemically bond the phenolic resin with the non-phenolic polymer. The invention is particularly useful for making a synthetic fabric-reinforced article, such as synthetic fabric-reinforced rubber article, circuit board substrate, or fiberglass.

  • Publication number: 20250091731
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system for testing a fuel tank for an aircraft. Electrical power is sent to an optical data concentrator for the fuel tank for the aircraft from a power supply such that the optical data concentrator sends optical signals to optical sensors inside the fuel tank through optical fibers connecting the optical data concentrator to the optical sensors. The electrical power is sent during a phase of manufacturing of the aircraft. Test data is received from the optical data concentrator by a computer system. The test data is based on optical response signals received from the optical sensors. A determination of states for the optical sensors is made by the computer system using the test data. A graphical indication of the states determined for the optical sensors inside the fuel tank is displayed by the computer system in a graphical user interface on a display system.
