US Patent:

42765439, Jun 30, 1981

Filed:

Mar 19, 1979

Appl. No.:

6/021577

Inventors:

Ralph W. Miller - Manhattan Beach CA
James G. Peterson - Manhattan Beach CA

Assignee:

TRW Inc. - Redondo Beach CA

International Classification:

H03K 13175

US Classification:

340347AD

Abstract:

A parallel analog-to-digital converter having high speed and high resolution, fabricated on a single integrated-circuit chip in such a manner as to avoid problems typically associated with high speed parallel converters. The converter disclosed by way of example has an eight-bit output, 256 matched comparators for quantizing an analog input signal, and encoding and latching logic for deriving digital outputs from the comparators. Problems related to comparator mismatching, high comparator input capacitance and high comparator input bias current, are effectively minimized by the use of a triple diffusion fabrication process, which substantially reduces the number of defects in the circuit and provides a relatively high component packing density.

US Patent:

46554157, Apr 7, 1987

Filed:

Jan 24, 1985

Appl. No.:

6/694883

Inventors:

Ralph A. Miller - Monmouth Beach NJ
Frank J. Brown - Brick NJ

Assignee:

The Garrett Corporation - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

B64C 2526

US Classification:

244105

Abstract:

A helicopter flotation pack includes an inflatable flotation bladder secured to an intermediate structural member which includes means for attachment to a helicopter landing skid. The structural member cooperatively defines a sheltered chamber for inflation apparatus and also carries an environmentally protective cosmetic cover which advantageously directs the deployment of the flotation bladder during inflation. The nature of the interconnection between the inflation bladder and structural member is such that both in-flight stability and flotation load-bearing capacity of the flotation bladder are increased.

Appl. No.:

7/656731

Inventors:

Ralph A. Miller - Monmouth Beach NJ

Assignee:

Air Cruisers, Inc. - Belmar NJ

International Classification:

A62B 500

US Classification:

182137

Abstract:

An impact system features an integral stored gas inflation source augmented by an ejector which entrains ambient air to rapidly deploy an inflate a safety cushion. The cushion has a plurality of chambers and each chamber is interconnected to an adjacent chamber by valves connected in opposing directions. When a particular cushion chamber is impacted, gas in the impacted chamber is forced via the valve arrangement into an adjacent lower pressure chamber. Upon the impacting object being removed from the cushion, the valve arrangement permits a reverse flow of gas to equilibrate the pressure in the adjacent chambers whereby the system is ready for accepting a subsequent impact without the need for reinflating the cushion. The system is of a size and weight so as to be within the limits of portability by a minimum of using personnel without being otherwise assisted.

Appl. No.:

6/239305

Randall F. White - Paradise CA

Assignee:

The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC

International Classification:

B64D 108
B64D 1772

US Classification:

244137R

Abstract:

A system for transferring cargo at sea by helicopter includes an automatily activated self inflatable apparatus for reducing the velocity of the cargo if jettisoned or inadvertently dropped into the sea and for keeping the cargo afloat until retrieval may be accomplished. The cargo is lifted by a support sling attachable to a helicopter suspension cargo hook and simultaneously connected to a second sling in parallel to the helicopter through the rapidly deployable retardation and floatation device. Release of the support sling causes the cargo to drop and initiate deployment and inflation of the ribs of the parachute thereby retarding the cargo's descend and providing buoyancy for its floatation.

Appl. No.:

2/542974

Inventors:

Ralph L. Miller - Chatham NJ

Assignee:

Bell Telephone Laboratories, Incorporated - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

H04L 902

US Classification:

179 15M

Abstract:

1. In combination, means for receiving a signal wave accompanied by a pilot impulse, means to combine with the received signal wave a locally produced wave in predetermined phase relation comprising means to produce a local pilot impulse in definite relation to said locally produced wave, signal storage means, means responsive to said first pilot impulse to enable said storage means to receive and store said signal wave, a signal responsive device, and means controlled by said local impulse to impress said stored signal wave upon said signal responsive device together with said locally produced wave. 8. In a speech transmission system, means to sample input speech waves twice per cycle of the highest component frequency of the speech to be sent, means to produce pulses representative of the sampled speech equal in length to the time between sampling instants, means to combine said pulses with individual key pulses to disguise the speech pulses and means to transmit the combined pulses.
