Retention system and method for a wing
A retention system includes a base supporting a wing spar and a post extending through the base from a first side of the base to a second side of the base. The post inserts through an aperture in the spar. A stop is selectively securable to the post over the second side of the base. A locking member engages the post on the first side of the base. The locking member is configured to selectively move the post from an unlocked position to a locked position in which the post is withdrawn toward the first side relative to the unlocked position. A biasing member encircles the post and is positioned between the stop and the second side. When the locking member is in a closed position the biasing member expands to engage the aperture and resist movement of the wing spar. A plurality of cradles may support the wing.

Display module mounting
Display module mounting configurations and methods are disclosed. A frame for a video display module can comprise a first face configured for coupling with a light-emitting element circuit board and a second face configured for mounting to a support chassis and one or more first securing structures coupled to the second face, the one or more first securing structures being configured to mount or secure the frame to the support chassis. The frame can also include one or more security latches each comprising a latch body movable between a latched position and an unlatched position, each latch body configured to engage a first feature of the support chassis to prevent removal of the video display module when in the latched position.
Multi-stage thermal isolator for focal plane arrays and other devices
An apparatus includes a first interface platform and a second interface platform. One interface platform is configured to be coupled to a support structure, and the other interface platform is configured to be coupled to a device that operates at a temperature different than a temperature of the support structure. The apparatus also includes at least one intermediate stage platform and struts connecting the first and second interface platforms to the at least one intermediate stage platform. Top surfaces of the interface platforms may be substantially coplanar. At least a portion of the second interface platform can reside within an opening of the first interface platform. The struts can be arranged in a nested configuration having first and second sets of struts, where the second set is located within the first set. Each strut in the first set could be substantially parallel to an adjacent strut in the second set.
Vibration damping device
A vibration damping device includes: a cylindrical first attachment member and a second attachment member; and an annular first elastic body and an annular second elastic body, wherein, a liquid chamber is formed between the elastic bodies, elastic division walls that divide the liquid chamber into a plurality of pressure receiving liquid chambers are arranged, wherein the elastic division wall is joined to the first elastic body, and is also in abutment with the second elastic body, wherein the second attachment member is divided in the axial direction into: a first divided body to which an inner peripheral edge portion of the first elastic body is joined; and a second divided body to which an inner peripheral edge portion of the second elastic body is joined, and wherein the inner peripheral edge portions of the elastic bodies are located side by side in the axial O direction.
Molded equipment pad with arc-shaped ribs
A molded equipment pad having a top deck, side walls, underlying reinforcing radial ribs, and underlying reinforcing arc-shaped ribs. The arc-shaped ribs may include a series of concentric arc-shaped ribs that are centered on the center of the equipment pad and that extend toward the side walls of the pad and a number of distributed circular hubs. Alternatively, the arc-shaped ribs may include a series of concentric arc-shaped ribs that are centered on the center of the equipment pad that end short of the side walls, a series of opposing arc-shaped ribs that are centered on the corners of the equipment pad, and a number of distributed circular hubs.
