20130033789 | ADAPTIVE POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR AIRCRAFT GALLEYS - The adaptive power management system for aircraft galleys includes one or more programmable circuit breakers for corresponding interchangeable aircraft galley inserts. Current rating settings of the programmable circuit breakers can be changed by direct interrogation by a galley network controller, which can also automatically switch selected circuit breakers to open to shut down the power supply to an entire galley complex or individual galley inserts, as needed, or by a passive signal. | 02-07-2013 |
20110061655 | BREATHING MASK AND REGULATOR FOR AIRCRAFT - The auxiliary breathing flow channel apparatus for an oxygen mask for pilots and crew of an airplane includes a flow control device with closed and open positions to regulate flow through an auxiliary channel. A pressure sensor such as an aneroid capsule automatically closes the auxiliary channel upon a decrease in cabin pressure. A handle also allows a user to manually move the flow regulating means to a closed position. | 03-17-2011 |
20100132805 | AIR VENT VALVE FOR BEVERAGE MAKERS - The air vent valve includes a vent valve body and a valve adapter that sealingly mate together. A vent outlet of the vent valve body and a fluid inlet of the valve adapter are connected through interior flow chambers of the vent valve body and valve adapter. A spherical ball float is constrained for longitudinal movement within a tubular collar in the interior chamber of the vent valve body, and a planar valve seat member with a central flow aperture is disposed within the vent valve body between the tubular collar and the outflow passage of the vent valve body. | 06-03-2010 |
20090320843 | ELECTROMECHANICAL REGULATOR WITH PRIMARY AND BACKUP MODES OF OPERATION FOR REGULATING PASSENGER OXYGEN - The electromechanical regulator for passenger oxygen is a hybrid oxygen regulator that provides for electronic or mechanical regulation of oxygen flow. The electronic portion of the regulator consists of an inlet solenoid valve, an outlet solenoid valve, a cabin pressure transducer, a regulated output transducer and a PID based controller, and the solenoid valves are normally biased so that in the event of an electronic system failure or a power supply failure the system will automatically revert to mechanical operation. | 12-31-2009 |
20090288562 | BEVERAGE MAKER FLOW DETECTION LOGIC - The water heating flow detection system for a beverage maker includes a heater control logic circuit that controls heating in response to temperature and flow conditions in the beverage maker. A heater control logic circuit receives a temperature detection signal and a flow detection signal, and generates a water heater control signal for controlling operation of one or more water heaters. A flow detection device may be connected to the hot water outlet conduit or the cold water inlet conduit, and may include a magnetic flow detection device. A faucet lever position detection device may also be used to indicate flow through a faucet outlet valve. | 11-26-2009 |
20090103221 | ADAPTIVE POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR AIRCRAFT GALLEYS - The adaptive power management system for aircraft galleys includes one or more programmable circuit breakers for corresponding interchangeable aircraft galley inserts. Current rating settings of the programmable circuit breakers can be changed by direct interrogation by a galley network controller, which can also automatically switch selected circuit breakers to open to shut down the power supply to an entire galley complex or individual galley inserts, as needed, or by a passive signal. | 04-23-2009 |
