Appl. No.:

10/685142

Inventors:

John Neumann - Painesville OH, US
Daniel Zenisek - Warrensville Heights OH, US

International Classification:

B60P001/00

US Classification:

414529000

Abstract:

An industrial type cart that has a rotatable and indexable top surface that supports a roller conveyor arrangement and which can be towed using a standard tug, automatic guided vehicle or human power is disclosed. The cart is comprised of a base member, a frame member, and rotation apparatus permitting the indexable rotation of the frame member with respect to the base member. An inner ring is attached to the top surface of the base member and an outer concentric ring is attached to the bottom surface of the frame member. A shoulder bolt is received through a cross member attached to the outer concentric member and is received within a threaded bore provided in a cross member attached to the inner ring on the base member permitting the frame member to rotate relative to the base member. A spring loaded indexing device is attached to the base member and engages a pair of a plurality of flanged surfaces that are attached to and angularly spaced around the outer concentric ring on the frame member permitting the indexable engagement of the frame member with respect to the base member as the frame member is rotated with respect to the base member. The roller conveyor arrangement, which can have a number of configurations, is attached to the top surface of the frame member.

Abstract:

An aircraft-launched, ram-air inflatable, passive radar decoy (10) has a substantially cylindrically shaped body (12) having an open forward end (14) and a closed porous rearward end (16), the body comprised of a fabric reinforced composite having a high radar reflectivity coating on at least it interior surfaces (12i, 16i). A rod-shaped weight (22) is attached at the forward end (14) by way of shroud lines (20), the weight (22) providing the highest weight-to-drag-area ratio for the particular size body. The decoy (10) provides a high radar cross section and broad angle coverage to ground-based source of radar when it is ram-air inflated upon ejection by the aircraft into its adjacent windstream.
