Power Distribution System

View page
US Patent:
6396167, May 28, 2002
Filed:
Mar 30, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/281653
Inventors:
Edward J. Simburger - Agoura CA
Alonzo Prater - Carson CA
Peter J. Carian - Inglewood CA
Assignee:
The Aerospace Corporation - El Segundo CA
International Classification:
H02J 110
US Classification:
307 43, 307 52, 307150
Abstract:
A power distribution system delivers power onto a regulated bus to a load from a plurality of individual indivisible DC power source devices and or DC energy storage devices each having a respective regulator for coupling the devices onto the bus. Respective storage device chargers for the DC energy storage devices enable charging of the DC energy storage devices when the DC power source devices provide power in excess of the demands of the load. The respective regulators and chargers continue to provide sufficient coupled power onto the bus even in the event of a failure of one or more of the devices thereby enabling graceful degradation of power delivery to the load for improved reliably of the power delivery.

Nanosatellite Solar Cell Regulator

View page
US Patent:
7786716, Aug 31, 2010
Filed:
Aug 29, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/214377
Inventors:
Edward J. Simburger - Agoura Hills CA, US
Daniel L. Rumsey - Inglewood CA, US
Peter J. Carian - Inglewood CA, US
Assignee:
The Aerospace Corporation - CA
International Classification:
G05F 1/618
US Classification:
323290, 323906, 320101, 320107
Abstract:
A solar cell regulator in a nanosatellite includes a pulse width modulated DC-DC boost converter and a peak power tracking controller for converting solar cell power to bus power for charging of system batteries and powering loads while the controller controls the pulse width modulation operation of the converter for sensing solar cell currents and voltages along a power characteristic curve of the solar cell for peak power tracking, for determining any power data point, including a peak power point, an open circuit voltage point, and a short circuit current point along the power characteristic curve of the solar cell, and for communicating the power data to a satellite processor for monitoring the performance of the solar cell during operational use of the satellite.

Multimode Power Module

View page
US Patent:
20080258675, Oct 23, 2008
Filed:
Apr 23, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/789014
Inventors:
David J. Caldwell - Carlsbad CA, US
Peter J. Carian - Inglewood CA, US
Michael A. Willhoff - Playa del Rey CA, US
International Classification:
H01M 10/44
H01L 31/058
H02J 7/00
H02M 1/00
US Classification:
320101, 320162
Abstract:
A multimode power module system automatically selects one of multiple operating modes to maximize power transfer in varying conditions by using direct energy transfer, boost peak power tracking, buck peak power tracking, charge limit, and eclipse standby modes with reduced switching losses, reduced component count, and scalability through connections of multiple power modules system.

Appl. No.:
12/714490
Inventors:

Daniel L. Rumsey - Inglewood CA, US
Peter J. Carian - Inglewood CA, US
International Classification:

Continuous Passive Motion Devices And Methods

View page
US Patent:
48754692, Oct 24, 1989
Filed:
Jun 13, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/206269
Inventors:
Arthur H. Brook - Rolling Hills Estates CA
Peter J. Carian - Inglewood CA
Leonard Katzin - Beverly Hills CA
Edmund E. Landsinger - Torrance CA
James D. Moore - Rancho Palos Verdes CA
Leah D. Rotter - Los Angeles CA
Stanley Schreiber - Marina Del Rey CA
Assignee:
Innovative Medical Engineering, Inc. - Hawthorne CA
International Classification:
A61H 102
US Classification:
128 26
Abstract:
A system for continuous passive motion of a limb or one or more fingers comprises a reciprocable carriage coupled to a drive belt which is driven by a motor through a disengageable clutch. A second drive belt also driven by the motor, and the first drive belt, carry elements whose positions can be sensed to control limits of motion. Individual finger actuators, adjustable in length and with internal springs, couple engagement means on the fingers to the carriage, which can be driven so as to provide predetermined dwell times at limits of flexion and extension.
