Abstract: An auditory attitude indicator for aircraft that includes an audio source providing an audible signal, a′ stereo headset with a left side and a right side, an aircraft avionics system that provides at least aircraft pitch data and roll data to an audio processor unit. The audio processor unit includes at least one lookup table of coefficients corresponding to a plurality of possible aircraft pitch and roll orientations and at least two selectable multipoint finite impulse response filters. The first selectable multipoint finite impulse response filter having a first coefficient selected by the audio processing unit from the lookup table based upon the aircraft pitch data and roll data for varying the audible signal to the stereo headset left side. The second selectable multipoint impulse response filter for varying the audible signal to the stereo headset right side having a second coefficient selected by the audio processing unit from the lookup table based upon the aircraft pitch data and roll data.

Abstract: A coupling device is provided with two flanges and a resilient annular member disposed between facing surfaces of the flanges. The resilient annular member is provided with a central opening through which a metallic spring is disposed to exert a resistive force against compression of the resilient annular member between the two flanges. The device is particularly well suited for use in a marine propulsion system because of the propulsive force exerted on the shaft system by the propeller. In one particularly preferred arrangement, each of the two flanges is provided with three holes, and the resilient annular member is provided with six holes. The two flanges are offset rotationally to place each of the holes of one flange in alignment with an interstitial space between the holes of the other flange.

Abstract: A fuel supply system for a marine propulsion system having an electronically controlled fuel injection system eliminates the need for a vapor separator. The system pumps an excessive amount of fuel through a plumbed fuel supply loop and cools recirculated fuel to cool all the components in the plumbed fuel supply loop, i.e. a continuous duty, constant displacement fuel pump; a pressure regulator; and a water separating fuel filter. Recirculated fuel flows from the pressure regulator to the water separating fuel filter as does make-up fuel from a fuel tank. The fuel stream from the water separating fuel filter flows to the low-pressure side of the fuel pump, which pumps the fuel through the plumb fuel supply loop. A fuel injection portion of the fuel flows to the engine for combustion, while the remaining portion of the fuel is recirculated. The recirculated portion of the fuel is cooled, preferably using a water-cooled heat exchanger. The cooled, recirculated fuel passes through the pressure regulator and repeats recirculation to the water separating fuel filter.

Abstract: A lubrication system for an in-line engine which has a piston symmetry plane that is tilted relative to a vertical plane is provided with an oil pan and windage tray that facilitates the transfer of oil from a rotating crankshaft to the oil pan without excessive aeration. In addition, it facilitates the removal of entrained air from liquid oil as it passes from the crankshaft to a pool of oil collected in an oil pan. A windage tray is provided with a louver structure and a louver opening structure that assists this passage of oil droplets without undue aeration being caused.

Abstract: The present invention provides a relationship between the exhaust passages and coolant passages of the exhaust manifold and exhaust elbow which serves to maintain the joint of the exhaust passage at a higher temperature than would be possible with known exhaust manifolds and exhaust elbows. By providing a space between surfaces of a raised exhaust portion of the components and surfaces of the raised coolant portions of the exhaust system, leakage from the coolant conduits to the exhaust cavities is avoided. The space provided between exhaust portions of the manifold and elbow and coolant portions of the manifold and elbow, near the joint between these components, provides the two advantages of maintaining a higher exhaust connection between the manifold and elbow and also preventing coolant leakage from flowing from the coolant passages to the exhaust passages of the exhaust system.

Abstract: A muffler is provided for a marine propulsion system in which an initial portion causes a downward flow of exhaust gas and entrained water from an exhaust manifold. The transition section directs the exhaust gas toward an egress section which extends upwardly from the transition section. The various sections of the exhaust path can be configured to form one or more loops which define one or more water collection regions.
