Abstract: A flexible digital radiographic detector assembly includes a flexible sleeve enclosing a photosensor array supported by a flexible substrate. Integrated circuit readout electronics are coupled to the photosensor array. The digital radiographic detector assembly communicates with a local computer system or with a cloud server to transmit image data captured in the photosensor array, to display the image data on a screen, and to analyze defects that may be present in the image.

Abstract: A flexible digital radiographic detector assembly includes a flexible sleeve enclosing a photosensor array supported by a flexible substrate. Integrated circuit readout electronics are coupled to the photosensor array and to a circuit board having conductive contacts. The contacts engage a hand carried read out electronics box to initiate a read out of image data captured in the photosensor array and to display the image data on a screen in the read out electronics box.

Abstract: A digital radiographic detector system includes a number of DR detectors enclosed by a housing. A base section with wheels has attached thereto a vertical column with a height adjustable horizontal arm extending therefrom. The housing with DR detectors therein is attached to a distal end of the horizontal arm. The housing comprises a major surface made from a radiolucent material to allow the detectors to capture radiographic images via x-rays transmitted through the major surface of the housing. The housing is configured to support the plurality of DR detectors therewithin.

Abstract: A flexible digital radiographic detector assembly uses a conformable bag having granular media therein to enclose the detector and to help fit the detector onto a curved object. The conformable bag is evacuated to hold the detector against the object to be imaged. An image of the object is acquired by aiming x-rays through the object toward the detector.

Abstract: A digital radiographic detector includes a planar multilayer core having a two-dimensional array of photo-sensitive cells. An enclosure having only one open side and upper and lower halves is joined together using a three—sided bumper configured to provide impact absorption for sides of the enclosure. An end cap covers the only one open side of the enclosure.

Abstract: A digital radiographic detector having a core assembly and a housing enclosing the core assembly. Sidewalls of the housing have a thickness greater than the top and bottom sides of the housing. A first planar spring couples the core assembly to an interior surface of the housing. A second planar spring may be attached to the core assembly and abutting another interior surface of the housing.

Abstract: A digital radiographic detector includes a planar multi-layered core with a two-dimensional array of photo-sensitive cells. A five-sided, integrally formed, rigid enclosure having one open side is configured to receive the multi-layered core through the open side. The planar multi-layered core comprises a foam layer having a recessed pocket on one major side thereof shaped in the form of a metal ground plane positioned in the recessed pocket.

Abstract: A fuel cell system comprises a main body including a first partial header and a fastening point. The main body is adapted to be coupled to a plurality of plates forming a fuel cell stack, allowing a single plate design to be used for multiple fuel cell stack lengths having a large differential of energy requirements, affording a durable alignment mechanism for the fuel cell stack, and providing integration flexibility for components and configurations of the fuel cell system.

Abstract: An integrated environmental barrier for protecting the receiver portion of a fuel cell stack health monitoring system. The stack health monitoring system includes a transmitting measurement module and an optical communication module having a receiver. Measurements indicating the health of the fuel cell stack are optically communicated between the transmitter and receiver through the environmentally protective barrier. The environmentally protective barrier is disposed between the measurement module and the optical communication module such that the environmental barrier isolates the optical communication module from the environment contained within the fuel cell stack. The environmental barrier comprises light blocking and light transmitting portions enabling system variation while ensuring signal integrity.
