US Patent:

6792795, Sep 21, 2004

Filed:

Aug 27, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/649533

Inventors:

Allen M. Jones - Kensington MD
Clifford A. Megerle - Thousand Oaks CA
John T. Swider - Port Crane NY
Barry Wake - Remington VA

Assignee:

Lockheed Martin Corporation - Bethesda MD

International Classification:

G01N 3300

US Classification:

73 37, 7386433, 73 232, 422123

Abstract:

A system and method for detecting contaminants in or on objects, having a movably mounted container for holding objects and having a plurality of perforations and an entrance opening through which objects may be placed into the container. A housing encloses the container and forms a barrier to ambient air. There is a sealable opening for inserting and removing objects from the container. A drive assembly moves the container within the housing to move objects therein for emitting particles which are in or on such object. There is an air stream for moving air through the housing and container to entrain any emitted particles into the air stream and a sensor for sensing contaminants in the air stream and providing a signal when a contaminant is sensed. The container can be a rotatable cage or a vibrating box. In the method, there is a chamber provided which may be sealed with respect to ambient air to create an enclosed atmosphere.

Appl. No.:

10/837270

Inventors:

Allen M. Jones - Kensington MD, US
Nicholas J. Nagurny - Manassas VA, US
Ryan C. Brewer - Bristow VA, US

Assignee:

Lockheed Martin Corporation - Bethesda MD

International Classification:

F24F 7/00
H05K 7/20

US Classification:

236 493, 622592, 361695

Abstract:

A platform for electronic components has a temperature sensing array, a vibration sensing array, a programmable logic device, and one or more cooling fans. The programmable logic device receives temperature data from the temperature sensing array and structure-borne noise data from the vibration sensing array. The programmable logic device analyzes the data, and based on this analysis, maintains the temperature and low level noise requirements of the system by activating, deactivating, speeding up, or slowing down one or more cooling fans.
