Apparatus And System For Controlling A Squib Firing Device

US Patent:
7154732, Dec 26, 2006
Filed:
Apr 1, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/405124
Inventors:
David D. Bennett - Clinton WA, US
Michael E. Ernst - Snohomish WA, US
Randall P. Keller - Snohomish WA, US
Douglas S. York - Langley WA, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
B60L 1/00, F23Q 7/24, H05B 43/02
US Classification:
361248, 307 91
Abstract:
A squib firing device is constructed to test and fire a squib load being applied to the squib firing device. A power supply of the squib firing device conditionally stores and discharges a squib firing power, which is a function of an analog OR of a first voltage from an external power source and a second voltage from a battery source of the squib firing device. When the squib firing power is being stored by the power supply, the squib firing device establishes a flow of a squib testing current through the applied squib load to thereby detect a resistance of squib load. When the squib firing power is being discharged by the power supply, the squib firing device establishes and regulates a flow of a squib firing current through the applied squib load to thereby fire squib load.

Systems And Methods For Electrical Power Regulation And Distribution In Aircraft

US Patent:
7339809, Mar 4, 2008
Filed:
Nov 30, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/999626
Inventors:
David D. Bennett - Clinton WA, US
Douglas S. York - Langley WA, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
H02M 5/293, H02M 5/00, H03D 3/24, H03D 3/02
US Classification:
363163, 363164, 329325, 329321
Abstract:
The present invention comprises systems and methods for electrical power regulation and distribution. In an embodiment, a system includes a modulator coupled to the source that receives an unregulated output waveform and is operable to produce a first composite waveform, and a mixing unit that is operable to generate a second composite waveform by introducing a frequency modulated component into the first composite waveform. A demodulator is coupled to the mixing unit that demodulates the second composite waveform to generate a third composite waveform. A filter network is coupled to the demodulator that is configured to select a desired spectral portion of the third composite waveform.
