US Patent:

48871893, Dec 12, 1989

Filed:

Mar 17, 1988

Appl. No.:

7/169414

Inventors:

James R. Garrett - Highland Village TX

Assignee:

Executive Technical Services, Inc. - Addison TX

International Classification:

G01D 1128

US Classification:

362 23

Abstract:

A panel mounted aircraft cockpit instrument is provided with a specially designed illuminating section which is used to light the instrument without causing interference with the operation of night vision equipment in the cockpit. An infrared light-filtering illuminating section is removably secured within a front-accessible recessed portion of the instrument and includes a sealed, filtered housing in which one or more incandescent bulbs are disposed. Each bulb is resiliently supported within its housing using a resilient, electrically resistive yet relatively highly heat conductive supporting material. Heat generated by the bulb is conducted outwardly through its supporting material into a metal heat sink portion of the housing and then externally dissipated therefrom. The illuminating structure may be easily and quickly removed and replaced without the necessity of removing the instrument or gaining access to the rear of the panel. Additionally, the resilient support of each bulb helps to insulate it from mechanical shock and vibration, and the conductive heat sinking of the bulb significantly increases its operating life.

Filed:

Appl. No.:

6/691391

Inventors:

Robert L. Williams - Hurst TX
James R. Garrett - Carrollton TX

International Classification:

G01C 906

US Classification:

33366

Abstract:

A gyroscopic referenced electronically operated grade and slope attitude indicator enabling a heavy equipment operator to build a slope and/or grade by visual readout. It is a system using a gyro output to compute the grade and slope for display thereof on a dual steering bar indicator. An angle calibration along with cancelling switches allows an equipment operator a selection of slope and grade ratios to work to in a work approach making staking and restaking of a slope and/or grade unnecessary other than for a surveyed starting point with a toe-stake or its equivalent.
