Title: John Mcelhone and His Patent for Monitoring a Control Device.
Introduction
John Mcelhone is an inventor associated with Marseilles, France, and Airbus Helicopters. His recorded patent work concerns monitoring the integrity of a magnetic control device.
Latest Patents
Mcelhone is associated with 1 patent, titled “Control Device and Method for Monitoring Such a Control Device.” The invention describes a movable lever containing a magnetic dipole and mounted on a support. A measuring device detects the magnetic field generated by the dipole, while a monitoring system compares the current field with a reference field corresponding to an estimated lever orientation. If the difference exceeds a specified threshold for longer than a set duration, the system signals an anomaly with an alarm.
Career Highlights
The available information connects Mcelhone’s patent activity with Airbus Helicopters. His patent focuses on detecting potential integrity issues in a control device through magnetic-field measurements and threshold-based monitoring.
Collaborations
Mcelhone’s listed coworkers include Pascal Izzo and Gaël Dagorn. The available information does not specify their roles in the patent or their particular contributions.
Conclusion
John Mcelhone’s recorded invention applies magnetic sensing and anomaly alerts to control-device monitoring, reflecting a practical approach to equipment integrity.
