Title: Prescaler for a fractional-n synthesizer
Inventor: LIPAN TUDOR
IPC: H03L7/00
Filed: 2006-06-08
Abstract: An (N-1)/N prescaler is provided, where N is an S power of 2. The prescaler uses only S flip-flops. The (N-1)/N prescaler receives a clock input from a high frequency oscillator, and provides an output line to a counter. The (N-1)/N prescaler receives a divide-by-(N-1) signal from the counter, and responsive to the divide signal, causes the prescaler to divide by a factor of (N-1); otherwise, the prescaler divides by a factor of N.

Title: Powered dispenser for caulking cartridge contents.
Inventor: BERGMAN CARL P
IPC: B05C17/01
Filed: 1981-04-06
Abstract: A rotary power hand tool (R) with a rotary chuck (T) is mated to a push-in piston-type dispensing container of caulking (A) via an adapter (10) which mounts on the tool and is secured to the chuck. The adapter has a plunger (102) provided on the end of a non-rotating screw (100). When the tool trigger (S) is actuated, a transmission (18) on the actuator is operated to advance the screw and plunger thus advancing the piston on the dispensing container. In the preferred embodiment a peg (112) secured to the drive screw and protruding out of the adapter doubles as a way of preventing the drive screw from rotating and as a way to indicate the relative amount of contents remaining to be dispensed until the container is effectively empty.

Title: Shock absorber with a hydro-mechanical stop.
Inventor: MOURRAY JACK WAYNE
IPC: F16F9/58
Filed: 1982-09-20
Abstract: A shock absorber (10) has a rebound stop assembly (22). The rebound stop assembly (22) rests upon a shoulder (30) fixed to a piston rod (16). The rebound stop assembly (22) includes an elastomeric ring (24) interposed between two collars (26 and 28) forming an annular chamber (74) therebetween. At the end of the rebound stroke of piston rod (16), the rebound stop assembly (22) is axially compressed between the shoulder (30) of piston rod (16) and the rod guide (18) until the elastomeric ring (24) deforms to abut the inner wall (64) of the working cylinder. As the elastomeric ring deforms, the annular chamber decreases in volume. A restrictive passage (71) allows a restrictive flow of fluid therefrom. An additional chamber (70) is formed which is in restrictive fluid communication through the passage (71) with section (68) of rebound chamber (20). Further compression of the stop assembly (22) decreases the volume of both chambers (70 and 74), and causes restrictive fluid flow out therefrom through the passage (71) into the section (68) of rebound chamber (20). The compression of the elastomeric ring and the restrictive fluid flow provides additional damping at the end of the rebound stroke.

Title: Ink jet recorder.
Inventor: JOCHIMSEN DIETER
IPC: B41J2/20
Filed: 1986-07-07
Abstract: An ink jet recorder of the continuous jet type has a mounting block defining a reference surface. Nozzle units from which the ink streams are ejected are releasably keyed to the reference surface. An ink reservoir supplies electrically conductive ink to the nozzle units which selectively charge segments of the ink streams issuing from the nozzle units. Each unit also includes provision for accurately aiming the ink stream in both the x and y directions using simple knob controls. A deflection unit also releasably keyed to the reference surface downstream from the nozzle units. The ink stream is directed through a deflection unit mounted on the reference surface. Mating members are provided in said mounting block which corresponds with mating members on the deflection unit. This unit generates an electrical field which deflects the selectively charged segments of the ink stream issuing from the nozzle unit, from their predetermined paths so that they do not reach the recording medium; the undeflected portions of the ink streams form the printing on the medium. The deflection unit also includes provision for removing extraneous ink from the regions of the deflection field so as to minimize background coloration in the printing on the medium. A charged mist shield is provided in said deflection unit to further attract extraneous ink in and about said deflection unit. Vacuum means are provided to withdraw extraneous ink from said deflection unit, nozzle unit, and mist shield.
