20140158818 | Looking over-the-horizon system - A catamaran airship is tethered to a portable and mobile housing. The roof of the housing will be the landing and take-off place for the airship. Many types of vehicles—truck, ship—can be a mobile base for the housing and its airship. This is primarily a visual surveillance and long-range communication system for day and night, and in all-weather. This system can survey large areas over long periods of time, economically and noiselessly. | 06-12-2014 |
20140231106 | Assist unit for large outdoor fires background of the invention - The invention is designed to be used for the large outdoor fires such as fires on the U.S. Navy's aircraft carriers, in forests and grasslands and at airports and chemical plants. The operators of an “assist unit” should always be behind the firefighters. At long range it can blow fire suppressors into a fire and smother it. The suppressors can be water or chemicals by the firefighters. Soot, ashes, dirt or sand around a fire itself are good suppressors. The “assist unit” will blow them into the fire and it blows away the smoke and fumes as well. There are two versions of the “assist unit”: the ALL MANUAL one and the VEHICLE MOUNTED one. | 08-21-2014 |
20150022379 | Portable system for emergency landing helicopters - This is an electrical system not an electronic one. The light units should be placed as close to an actual circle as possible. For a helicopter visual landing in rough seas, low visibility and darkness, the approach for landing becomes a hazardous task. Good visibility of the landing area will be possible due to this system effectiveness. The helicopter can now become a truly all-weather vehicle. No new technology is needed. The parts for the system can be purchased off a store shelf, a minor modification of an existing item, or made by relatively minor fabrication. | 01-22-2015 |
20150159984 | Portable smoke screen delivery system - This invention is about the art, science and technology of smoke screening. The three “areas of importance” are sea, land and air uses. During World War II military strategy was forever changed by the numerous offensive and defensive advantages created by the first ever effective large area smoke screen. Smoke screens were also used extensively during the Vietnam War. In wars since the Vietnam War there have been several military disasters—totally or partially—for not using smoke screens, it has been reported. This invention will eliminate leaking tanks, plugged up exhaust nozzles, loose control values, inaccurate gauges and regulators found in earlier and present smoke screen delivery systems. No new technology is required. | 06-11-2015 |
20160075448 | Apparatus for the management of an airship's two types of cables - This apparatus automatically brings a physical control cable and an utility control cable together during the launching. It will separate the physical control cable from the utility control cable during mooring. The physical control cable is connected to an electric winch which is powered and controlled through an electric cable, the utility control cable is free to move around. The above apparatus can be operated by one person at a control panel with video screens inside a housing. | 03-17-2016 |
