Abstract:

A vertical situation display system for use in a vehicle such as, for example, an aircraft, is provided. A side view of an intended route of flight may be shown with altitude restrictions, airspace and instrument approach information, a projected flight path and range to airspeed symbol. The system may show terrain, weather, and traffic information along the intended route of flight. The system may be used in conjunction with a navigational display to enhance situational awareness. The system includes a computer, an electronic display device, an electronic entry device, a memory and a database. The database may contain terrain, airspace and flight planning data and may be updatable.

US Classification:

340974, 340945, 340971, 340976, 701 14

Abstract:

Techniques for representing a holding pattern on a vertical situation display are described. The vertical situation display has a first screen area to depict the holding pattern and second screen area to show a flight path after the holding pattern. The representation of the holding pattern visually informs a flight crew of current and prospective flight conditions.

International Classification:

B65D 41/18

US Classification:

220786, 220326, 220784, 215321

Abstract:

A lid is provided for engagement with a projecting rim of an opening on a container. The lid includes a covering panel for closing the container opening and a skirt formed on a periphery of the cover and depending therefrom. The skirt overlaps with the container rim when the cover is positioned over the opening. The skirt includes a defined gap therein that is positioned between adjacent gap edges. A clasp is provided on the periphery of the cover adjacent the defined gap. The clasp pivots between an open position and an engaged position. In the engaged position, the clasp engages the gap edges and draws the edges toward one another. The drawing of the gap edges moves the skirt inwardly towards the container rim. The lid may further include a flexing portion defining a connection between the cover panel and the skirt. The engagement of the clasp on the skirt causes compliance of the flexing portion and a corresponding axial movement of the skirt relative to the cover panel.

International Classification:

G06F 9/44

US Classification:

719328

Abstract:

User interface verification may be provided. First, a known good file may be received. Next, an automation may be run on an application program to place the application program in a predetermined state. Data from the known good file may then be compared to data corresponding to a user interface corresponding to the predetermined state of the application program. In response to the comparison, results corresponding to comparing the data from the known good file to the data corresponding to the user interface may be reported.

Abstract:

Methods and systems for fabricating a component by consolidating a particulate include a build platform configured to receive a particulate, a particulate dispenser configured to deposit the particulate on the build platform, and at least one print head including at least one jet. The at least one print head is configured to dispense a binder through the at least one jet onto the particulate to consolidate at least a portion of the particulate and form a component. The methods and systems also include at least one actuator assembly configured to rotate at least one of the at least one print head and the build platform about a rotation axis extending through the build platform and move at least one of the at least one print head and the build platform in a build direction perpendicular to the build platform as part of a helical build process for the component.

International Classification:

B22F 3/105
B05C 11/04
B28B 1/00

Abstract:

An additive manufacturing system for printing an article including a build plate having a build surface between an inner radius and an outer radius that may receive powder particles and a recoating assembly that may distribute the powder particles onto the build surface to form a build layer of the article. The recoating assembly includes a support jig having a first end, a second end, and a support wall extending between the first and second ends and a recoater blade coupled to the second end and extending along at least a portion of a length of the support wall. A shape of the recoater blade is such that, when the recoater blade is positioned against the build surface, an angle between the recoater blade and a tangent at each radii of the build plate is substantially constant.
