Pneumatic Actuation Control System And Method Of Operation

US Patent:
6708708, Mar 23, 2004
Filed:
Jul 25, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/205076
Inventors:
David A. Wingert - Fountain Hills AZ
Daniel S. Winkler - Mesa AZ
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Seattle WA
International Classification:
G05D 1620
US Classification:
137 12, 137 811, 13759617
Abstract:
A pneumatic actuation control system includes a pressure controller, an eductor and a valve. The pressure controller is capable of directing an amount of fluid to the contained volume such that a pressure within the contained volume exceeds a pressure external to the contained volume by a predefined positive pressure. The pressure controller can also adjust the pressure within the contained volume when the pressure external to the contained volume changes. The eductor can draw fluid from the contained volume to thereby decrease the pressure within the contained volume. The valve is controllably operable in either a pressure mode or a vacuum mode, where the valve either permits the pressure controller to provide fluid to the contained volume, or permits the eductor to draw fluid from the contained volume. As such, the system provides precision pressure control over a broad range of external pressures while compensating for rapid pressure changes.

One-Shot Electro-Pneumatic Actuator

US Patent:
6883326, Apr 26, 2005
Filed:
Aug 30, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/231855
Inventors:
Daniel S. Winkler - Mesa AZ, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
F16K013/10, F16K009/00, F15C001/04, F01B029/08, F02N013/00
US Classification:
60632, 137 74, 251 11
Abstract:
A one-shot, electro-pneumatic actuator apparatus for quickly supplying a pressurized fluid to an external device upon the actuation of an external control signal. The actuator includes a housing having a first portion for containing a quantity of pressurized fluid, a second portion having a reduced, cross-sectional area, and a third portion. The second portion includes a sealing element disposed therein for containing the pressurized fluid held in the first housing portion. A coil is wound around the second housing portion and receives a signal from an external control subsystem which causes the coil to heat the second housing portion, and thus the sealing element, to damage the sealing element. This enables the pressurized gas to escape through the second portion into the third portion of the housing and subsequently to the external device being controlled. The actuator is extremely compact, relatively inexpensive to construct, and be actuated to release its pressurized fluid in less than about one second on the application of the control signal to the coil.

Reusable Mold Forming Tool

US Patent:
2008030, Dec 11, 2008
Filed:
Jun 7, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/759779
Inventors:
Daniel S. Winkler - Mesa AZ, US
Assignee:
THE BOEING COMPANY - Irvine CA
International Classification:
B22C 7/04
US Classification:
164 45, 425175
Abstract:
Embodiments of the disclosure provide methods, apparatus, and articles for making a plurality of molds described by CAD data in machine readable form using a reusable mold-forming device. Various embodiments include configuring a plurality of adjustable actuators fixed to a base of a mold-forming device, where the top surface of the adjustable actuators takes the form of the mold required to make the part described by the CAD data. The adjustable actuators may then be readjusted to form another mold surface.
