摘要： The present technology is directed generally to pneumatic gearbox systems with variable speed transmission and associated systems and methods. In selected embodiments, pneumatic gearbox systems can include a variable input power source and a compressor operatively coupled thereto. The compressor can be configured to compress a fluid at a first cyclic frequency from the variable power input power source. The system can further include a storage vessel in fluid communication with the compressor and an expander in fluid communication with the storage vessel. The storage vessel can be configured to retain a volume of the fluid after compression until the expander draws upon it to expand the fluid at a second cyclic frequency different from the first cyclic frequency. The second cyclic frequency can be configured to synchronize with that of an electrical generator.

摘要： The present technology is directed generally to rotary displacement systems and associated methods of use and manufacture. The systems can be used to compress and/or expand compressible fluids. In some embodiments, the rotary displacement systems include a chamber housing having a pressure-modifying chamber with a first port and a second port, a first passageway in fluid communication with the chamber via the first port, and a second passageway in fluid communication with the chamber via the second port. The systems can further include a shaft positioned within the chamber housing and rotatable relative to the chamber housing about a rotational axis, and a rotor comprising no more than two lobes. The rotor can be carried by and rotatable relative to the shaft, and can be alternately operable in a first mode in which flow is provided from the first passageway to the second passageway via the chamber and in a second mode in which flow is provided from the second passageway to the first passageway via the chamber.

摘要： The present invention comprises a method for injecting a heavier payload into orbit than is possible using a traditional method and the same rocket booster launch vehicle. The method of the present invention does not utilize a parking orbit and does not perform orbital injection at perigee or apogee of the desired orbit. Rather, in the present method the flight path angle is positive at the final lower stage booster burn so as to boost the perigee kick motor and payload into a suborbital trajectory having a low perigee, which may be below the surface of the Earth. In the preferred embodiment, the launch vehicle maintains a negative flight path angle during the PKM burn. The PKM burn does not occur at perigee, but perigee is at the desired location when the PKM burn is complete. Use of this method increases the payload capacity of some launch vehicles by up to fifty percent (50%).
