Appl. No.:

7/440773

Inventors:

Donald C. Wetzel - Berea OH

International Classification:

H04N 718

US Classification:

358108

Abstract:

A system for monitoring and recording the movement of aircraft and their external characteristics and paths during and after landing and take-off from an airport runway detects malfunctions, pilot error, equipment failure or other evidence that might assist in determining the cause of a crash or other malfunction. The system includes a plurality of video cameras located adjacent to the runway, a video recording device for saving information from the cameras, and video transmission means connecting the cameras to the recording device.

US Patent:

4516645, May 14, 1985

Filed:

Nov 7, 1983

Appl. No.:

6/549671

Inventors:

Donald C. Wetzel - Berea OH

Assignee:

Quest Corporation - Macedonia OH

International Classification:

B66C 140
G01G 2112

US Classification:

177147

Abstract:

A weighing system has a load-bearing member attached to and supported by support means. A plurality of center-loaded type load cells are fixed on the load bearing member. A plurality of load rods are provided, each load rod extending across one of the load cells. Each load rod has a centering recess therein. A load supporting member is supported on the load rods. The load supporting member is capable of lateral movement with respect to the load bearing member. The centering recess of the load rod tends to urge the load supporting member to its original position. The weighing system is disclosed for use in a sheave block weighing assembly. The weighing system provides a self-centering arrangement which permits lateral movement without the necessity of movable load cells and without the use of check rods or flexure plates which could result in weighing inaccuracies.

US Patent:

4213115, Jul 15, 1980

Filed:

Mar 10, 1978

Appl. No.:

5/885310

Inventors:

Donald C. Wetzel - Berea OH

International Classification:

B61L 500
G08B 700
B60Q 126

US Classification:

340 47

Abstract:

A visual warning system for a locomotive is disclosed which includes a signal unit mounted on the locomotive and connected by sensing means to an audible warning device on the locomotive, such as a horn. The visual warning signal unit is thus actuated whenever the horn is sounded. The signal unit comprises a stroboscopic-type lamp assembly and flashing circuitry with a coating of phosphorescent material surrounding the lamp to extend the perceived duration of each flash of the lamp. The system may also include a delay for maintaining the flashing of the visual warning signal unit after the horn has been deactuated.

US Patent:

4577511, Mar 25, 1986

Filed:

Nov 5, 1984

Appl. No.:

6/667971

Inventors:

Donald C. Wetzel - Macedonia OH

International Classification:

G01L 1914

US Classification:

73756

Abstract:

A device for gauging the air pressure in a train-line at a hose coupling thereon having a pair of mated connectors containing resilient gaskets on the ends of the hoses in sealing engagement with each other includes an air pressure gauge, a ring-like member supporting the gauge therein, and means for sampling the air pressure in the train-line mounted on the ring-like member and providing fluid communication between the train-line and the gauge. A handle is attached to the ring-like member and is operable by applying a force thereon to position a distal portion of the sampling means in the train-line without stressing the air pressure gauge.

US Patent:

4862094, Aug 29, 1989

Filed:

Jul 6, 1987

Appl. No.:

7/069649

Inventors:

Donald C. Wetzel - Berea OH
Robert A. Livsey - Richmond Heights OH

Assignee:

Meg Trans Corp. - Berea OH

International Classification:

G01R 3100

US Classification:

324500

Abstract:

The self-contained diagnostic system is provided for a stroboscopic light circuit. The diagnostic system includes a plurality of signal lights, preferably LEDs, connected at various locations in the circuit to provide a visual indication of the faulty portion of the circuit in the event that the circuit does not operate properly. The system provides a quick and easy method for determining the location of a malfunction of a stroboscopic light without the necessity of replacing the entire light system or the use of diagnostic equipment.

US Patent:

5579071, Nov 26, 1996

Filed:

Mar 21, 1994

Appl. No.:

8/215357

Inventors:

Donald E. Wetzel - Arcadia CA
Garrett W. Brown - Philadelphia PA
James M. Bartell - Long Beach CA

International Classification:

G03B 1700

US Classification:

396428

Abstract:

A camera stabilizing support apparatus includes motorized "x-y translation" of one or more components of the camera equipment, such that no mechanical forces are imparted to the overall system which would adversely affect the angular position of the gimbaled mass, synchronous control of the motion of lower masses of the camera stabilizing support apparatus so that both dynamic and static balance is preserved throughout the range of motion, and an adjustable gimbal mechanism which serves to isolate the system's equipment support from the support arm extending from the operator's body harness which provides both coarse and fine location adjustment, and provides positive self-centering for these gimbal locking elements so that no clamp distortion occurs.

US Patent:

5407154, Apr 18, 1995

Filed:

Jul 28, 1993

Appl. No.:

8/098641

Inventors:

Donald C. Wetzel - Berea OH
Walter N. Arth - Washington Court House OH

Assignee:

Meg Trans Corp - Brookyn Hts. OH

International Classification:

B61K 904

US Classification:

246169A

Abstract:

Heaters are used to simulate wheel bearings at specified temperatures. Two heaters are mounted on each side of a railroad test car. The heaters are mounted on the sprung carriage of the car to reduce vibration of the hardware and avoid interfering with wheel trucks on the car. Ambient temperature sensors are similarly mounted. Wire brushes are mounted below the heaters and sensors to activate magnetic wheel flange sensors. The heaters are controlled by a system which is integrated with a hot wheel simulator system.
