Recent Patent Applications

Representative Space Technology patent applications from 21st August 2025:

20250262490. GOLF BALL RETRIEVAL SYSTEM WITH AUTOMATIC CABLE GUIDE

Abstract: Golf ball retrieval system includes a mechanism for winding cable on a spool on the vehicle to evenly distributes the cable across the width of the spool as it is wound to prevent the cable from bunching up on one side of the spool or from binding on the spool. The spool is driven by a motor which is connected to two sprockets which are turned as the motor turns to wind or unwind the cable. An arm has one end connected to a chain connecting the sprockets and the opposite end connected to a cable...

20250262796. CERAMIC COMPONENT, CERAMIC/METAL COMPONENT, MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF

Applicant: City University Of Hong Kong Shenzhen Futian Research Institute

Abstract: This invention applied a paradigm for the one-step-shape/material-transformation, high-2D/3D/4D-precision, high-efficiency, and scalable in situ 4D additive-subtractive manufacturing of ceramics in aerospace fields. The printed ceramics exhibited a high flame ablation performance with the integration of 2D printing (ALD) and 3D/4D printing of ceramic materials. The proposed paradigm can be extended to other high-temperature materials to build ceramic/metal composite structures.

20250263009. VEHICLE FRONT RADAR INTEGRATION

Applicant: Indian Motorcycle International Llc

Abstract: A main lighting assembly for a vehicle may comprise a headlight including a lens and a sensor assembly. The sensor assembly may be positioned adjacent the headlight lens and may include a forward-facing sensor unit positioned behind a sensor cover to sense objects in front of the vehicle. The headlight lens may include a recess and the sensor cover may include a portion that is substantially contiguous with the recess. The headlight lens and the sensor cover may be positioned within an opening o...

20250263139. SPROCKET DAMPING ASSEMBLY FOR A TRACK-TYPE MACHINE

Applicant: Caterpillar Inc

Abstract: A sprocket damping assembly may include at least one arc-shaped damping pad with a plurality of through holes, at least one arc-shaped backing plate with a plurality of through holes, and a plurality of tubular spacers, each including a central through hole. The sprocket damping assembly includes an assembled configuration, where a portion of the tubular spacers is located on one side of the at least one arc-shaped damping pad and the at least one arc-shaped backing plate is located on an opposi...

20250263179. TWO PHASE LANDING SYSTEM FOR THE MOON AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION ELEMENTS

Abstract: A passive landing system for decelerating a payload delivered from orbit or at orbital velocity onto a non-atmospheric celestial body, including a catcher assembly positioned to intercept incoming payloads at orbital speeds, and a deceleration system mechanically coupled to the catcher assembly and extending along a sloped terrain, wherein the system decelerates the payload by exchanging momentum between the descending payload and the extended deceleration system, without the use of propulsion. ...
