20130118765 | SELF POWERED AUTOMATIC FIRE EXTINGUISHER BASED UPON A MECHANICAL HEAT DETECTION MECHANISM AND A PYROTECHNICAL ACTUATOR FIRED BY A PIEZOELECTRIC DEVICE - A fire extinguishing apparatus includes a structure defining a first chamber containing an electrically operable explosive device. The apparatus also has a piezoelectric cell capable of producing an electrical output in response to the impact upon the piezoelectric cell. The apparatus also has a container of nonflammable pressurized fluid in contact with the structure, and a mechanical detection mechanism with a thermal sensor for producing a mechanical force at an established temperature. The mechanical force produced by the mechanical detection mechanism is applied to the piezoelectric cell to produce the electrical output that actuates the electrically operable explosive device. | 05-16-2013 |

20120279732 | MANUAL RELEASE FOR A PYROTECHNICAL ACTUATOR FIRED BY A PIEZOELECTRIC GENERATOR OR IGNITER - A fire extinguishing apparatus has a structure defining a first chamber containing an electrically operable explosive device, a piezoelectric cell capable of producing an electrical output in response to a mechanical force upon the piezoelectric cell electrically connected to the electrically operable explosive device, a container of fire suppressant in contact with the structure, and a mechanical mechanism adjacent the piezoelectric cell for producing the mechanical force on the piezoelectric cell. The mechanical force produced by the mechanical mechanism is applied to the piezoelectric cell to produce the electrical output that actuates the electrically operable explosive device. | 11-08-2012 |
20140177675 | HEAT DETECTOR WITH SHAPE METAL ALLOY ELEMENT - A temperature sensing system comprises a conductive tube, a shape memory alloy (SMA) element, and a detector. The SMA element is disposed to create an electrical contact with the electrical tube when subjected to at least a critical temperature, and the detector is configured to identify an alarm condition when the conductive tube and the SMA element form a closed electrical circuit. | 06-26-2014 |

20150080171 | VARIATOR - A toroidal variator having an input surface and an output surface coaxially mounted for rotation on a shaft defining a variator axis and two rollers in driving engagement with the input and output surfaces, a take-off drive operatively engaged with the output surface and disposed radially of the variator axis whereby a radial contact force perpendicular to and intersecting the variator axis is generated and wherein the rollers are located such that the points of contact of the rollers with the input and output surfaces at one particular ratio within the operating range of the variator lie generally in a plane which is substantially perpendicular to the direction of the radial contact force. This plane lies on or close to the neutral axis of bending of the variator structure whereby both normal contact loads between the discs and the two rollers will be generally the same. | 03-19-2015 |

20100292706 | NOVEL ENHANCED HAPTIC FEEDBACK PROCESSES AND PRODUCTS FOR ROBOTIC SURGICAL PROSTHETICS - A modular, scalable, layerable balloon actuator or actuator array. The miniaturized actuator array can be mounted on the hand controls of a surgical robotic system, and pressure or force input is applied to the surgeon's fingers. The input to the fingers is proportional to the applied force or pressure that is sensed on a separate sensor array, which is mounted on the surfaces of the object to be physically manipulated. The force is translated to pressure using a control system, which includes electronic and pneumatic components. The Novel enhanced haptic feedback system enables the detection of force and tactile information on tissues and sutures with high spatial and temporal resolution. This technology shortens the learning curve for MIS training, expands the application of MIS techniques in surgery, and enhances telementoring and teiesurgery applications. The actuator is modular scalable, Iayerable, compact, configurable, flexible, and conformable. It is therefore designed such that it can be adapted to future surgical robotic systems, and can be applied to prosthetics, orthotics, and persons with sensory neuropathy, as well as other robotic applications, simulating machines and apparatus and user-interfacing systems for video-gaming. | 11-18-2010 |
