US Patent:

20140005980, Jan 2, 2014

Filed:

Jul 2, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/540152

Inventors:

Robert L. Green - Haverhill MA, US
Michael D. Hargreaves - Lawrence MA, US
Craig M. Gardner - Belmont MA, US

International Classification:

G06F 17/18
G06F 15/00

US Classification:

702181, 702127

Abstract:

A method, apparatus and computer program product for tagging reference materials of interest in spectroscopic searching applications is presented. A reference list of materials to be considered as part of a final analysis of a spectroscopic analysis of a sample material is generated. A watchlist of at least one material to be retained for a final analysis of the spectroscopic analysis of a sample material is provided. A final analysis of the sample material is preformed using the watchlist of at least one material and the reference list of materials. A determination is then made regarding whether a spectrum of the sample material matches at least one spectrum of materials on the watchlist and on the reference list.

US Patent:

Filed:

Dec 22, 1992

Appl. No.:

7/995210

Inventors:

James J. Luz - Tewksbury MA
Craig M. Gardner - Danvers MA

Assignee:

General Electric Company - Schenectady NY

International Classification:

F16F 308

US Classification:

2671402

Abstract:

The mounting system 10 includes a base support structure 12, a load support 14 and a compressive force-applying member 16. Compression elements 18 and 20 are disposed between the base support structure 12 and load support 14 and the load support 14 and member 16, respectively. Rods 22 interconnect base support structure 12 and member 16. Elements 18 and 20 are pre-compressively loaded by displacing member 16 toward base support structure 14 and compression elements 18 and 20 carry compression and tensile loadings while under compression. Support rods 22 extend through apertures in load support 14 to ensure vibration isolation of load support 14 from base support structure 12.

Appl. No.:

8/027584

Inventors:

John R. Seymour - Lowell MA
Craig M. Gardner - Danvers MA
Kenneth V. Wellner - Westminster MA
James J. Luz - Tewksbury MA

Assignee:

General Electric Company - Schenectady NY

International Classification:

F16F 926

US Classification:

267220

Abstract:

A vibration damper assembly is provided which includes a first attachment element or bracket for securing the damping mechanism to a first component, the vibrations of which are to be damped. A visco-elastic spacer is secured to the element or bracket at one end, and to a cylinder of a piston/cylinder assembly at its other end. A piston is slidably received in the cylinder with a predetermined clearance between the peripheral surface of the piston and the cylinder wall. A piston rod extending from the piston and the opposite end of the cylinder is received within a housing of a viscous damping device, the piston rod having a plurality of discs mounted thereon in predetermined, spaced relationship. An interior wall of the housing is also formed with a plurality of disc-like surfaces projecting toward the radial center of the housing, with aligned apertures therein to accommodate the piston rod. The other or remote end of the viscous damper housing is secured to a second attachment element or bracket by which the damper is secured to a second component.
