Appl. No.:

13/626794

Inventors:

George Young - Walnut CA, US

International Classification:

G07F 17/32

US Classification:

463 16

Abstract:

An entertainment apparatus may include an arcade game; a video display device in communication with said arcade game; an electronic game module in communication with said video display device and, comprising a processor; a computer readable medium in communication with said processor; microcode encoded in said computer readable medium, wherein said processor utilizes said microcode to operate said game module; instructions written to said computer readable medium; and a music playing unit that is used to play music from either at least one music database in the entertainment apparatus or a communication network connected to a plurality of music content sources. In one embodiment, the gaming apparatus is able to search a player's social networking websites through the communication network to further determine the player's preference about music, and retrieve the music from the music database in the entertainment apparatus or the communication network connected to music content sources.

Hughes Electronics Corporation - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

B64G 144

US Classification:

244173

Abstract:

A constrained solar array (24) for a satellite (20) and method for making the same are disclosed. The solar array (24) includes a superstructure (30) with solar cells (80) mounted thereon to provide power to a main satellite body (22) and instruments mounted thereon. A flexible tensile member (40) extends relative to the superstructure (30) and is placed under tension to place the solar array (24) in a constrained condition which reduces thermal transients in and increases the bending frequency of the solar array (24). Preferably, a pair of support arms (34,36) are cantilevered from the superstructure (30). The flexible tensile member (40) pulls upon the support arms (34,36) to apply bending moments to the superstructure (30) to maintain the solar array (24) in a distorted shape. The method includes heating one surface of the solar array (24) to thermally deform or bow the solar array (24) and then constraining the bowed solar array using a flexible tensile member (40) to prevent the solar array (24) from returning to its original configuration when the heat is removed from the solar array (24) during an eclipse.

International Classification:

US Classification:

136245

Abstract:

A rigid panel solar array for a spacecraft. The layers of materials for the panels are selected and oriented to control the net coefficient of thermal expansion in the array's longitudinal direction. Some of the layers are discontinuous and softly coupled to the others by flexible adhesive materials. The panels are interconnected with hinge members which are positioned at appropriate locations and with appropriate degrees of freedom so that thermally induced transverse bending does not cause transverse motion of the center-of-mass of the panels.
