Filed:

Jul 15, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/195176

Inventors:

Jeffrey P. Kosmoski - Beaverton OR

Assignee:

Xerox Corporation - Stamford CT

International Classification:

B65H 306

US Classification:

271116, 271114, 271110

Abstract:

A sheet feeder ( ) for a print engine ( ) includes a paper tray ( ) which holds a stack of sheets ( ) including a top sheet ( ), and a pick-roller ( ) which makes contact with the top sheet ( ). The pick-roller ( ) is rotatable about an axis. Also included is a driver ( ), which upon forward energizing, rotationally drives the pick-roller ( ) about the axis in a forward direction to advance the top sheet ( ) to sheet advancing means ( ) that pass the top sheet ( ) along through the print engine ( ). A drive controller ( ) controls the driver ( ). The drive controller ( ) causes the pick-roller ( ) to be released for free-wheeling after advancing the top sheet ( ) to the sheet advancing means ( ).

Appl. No.:

6/318474

Inventors:

Jeffrey P. Kosmoski - Long Beach CA

Assignee:

McDonnell Douglas Corporation - Long Beach CA

International Classification:

B60P 164
B60P 713
B61D 4500

US Classification:

410 81

Abstract:

A foot actuated latch for use in an aircraft cargo bay to provide vertical and longitudinal restraint of a cargo container. The latch having a lineal engaging and disengaging action which resists lineal forces parallel to latch movement tending to disengage that latch pawl from the container. The actuation of the latch for engagement and disengagement accomplished by a downward movement of the latch levers.

Michael M. Mueller - Portland OR
Jeffrey P. Kosmoski - Tigard OR

Assignee:

Photon Kinetics, Inc. - Beaverton OR

International Classification:

A44B 2100
B25B 120

US Classification:

24517

Abstract:

A clamp for gripping an elongate member comprises a mounting block having locating structures defining a desired position for the elongate member. Primary and secondary clamping yokes are each movable relative to the mounting block between a closed position, in which the clamping yoke engages an elongate member in the desired position, and an open position. A latch retains the primary clamping yoke in the closed position, and a force-transfer arm is effective between the primary clamping yoke and the secondary clamping yoke for retaining the secondary clamping yoke in its closed position when the primary clamping yoke is in its closed position.

Photon Kinetics, Inc. - Beaverton OR

International Classification:

G01N 2184
G01N 2159

US Classification:

356 731

Abstract:

Apparatus for testing multiple optical fibers comprises a light source, a light detector, a first set of adapter fibers, and a second set of adapter fibers corresponding on a one-to-one basis with the first set of adapter fibers. A first end of each fiber of the first set is held in a first fiber holding structure, and a first translation mechanism is provided for translating the first fiber holding structure relative to the light source so as to bring the first end of any selected one of the first set of adapter fibers into optically coupled relationship with the light source. A first end of each fiber of the second set is held in a second fiber holding structure, and a second translation mechanism is provided for translating the second fiber holding structure relative to the detector to bring the first end of any selected one of the second set of adapter fibers into optically coupled relationship with the light detector. A controller coordinates operation of the first and second translation mechanisms so that when the first end of an adapter fiber of the first set is in optically coupled relationship with the light source, the first end of the corresponding fiber of the second set is in optically coupled relationship with the light detector.
