Title: Gamma type free-piston stirling machine configuration
Inventor: BERCHOWITZ DAVID M
IPC: F02G1/043
Filed: 2010-07-02
Abstract: An improved free piston Stirling machine having a gamma configuration. The displacer and each piston is reciprocatable within a cylinder having an unobstructed opening at its inner end into a common volume of the workspace. The common volume is defined by the intersection of inward projections of the displacer cylinder and the piston cylinders. The displacer and the pistons each have a range of reciprocation that extends into the common volume. A displacer drive rod is reciprocatable in a drive rod cylinder and both are positioned outside the common volume and on the opposite side of the common volume from the displacer. The displacer is connected to the displacer drive rod by a displacer connecting rod. Importantly, the displacer and pistons have complementary interfacing surface contours formed on their inner ends which substantially reduces the dead volume of this gamma configured machine.

Title: Low phase noise LC oscillator with high amplitude oscillation in tank circuit
Inventor: SADHU BODHISATWA
IPC: H03B5/12
Filed: 2012-06-20
Abstract: An oscillator includes an LC tank circuit 140, active devices 131 & 132 and capacitors (passive devices) Ct and Cd. The tank circuit 140 is indirectly coupled to the active devices 131, 132 via the capacitors. The amplitude of the oscillation in the tank circuit 140 is reduced by a divider formed by capacitors Cd and Ct (see fig.2) before application to the gates of the active devices 131 & 132. The division ratio (   coupling ratio   ) between the tank circuit 140 and the active devices 131, 132 allows an amplitude of oscillation in the tank circuit that would otherwise cause breakdown of the active devices. The maximum amplitude is now limited by the breakdown of the passive devices. In an embodiment, the oscillation amplitude may be 40V and the capacitive divider reduces and    decouples    this from the active devices which may have breakdown voltages of around 1V. The use of a high amplitude oscillation in the tank circuit gives low phase noise. It is also disclosed that the oscillation amplitude is highest and phase noise lowest if the biasing inductors 111 & 112 are tuned just below the oscillation frequency of the tank circuit 140.

Filed: 2013-11-18
Abstract: The laminate edging tool comprises a means to trimming laminate bevel edges on worktops or other laminate boards that have a thin laminate applied to them such a kitchen worktops or work surfaces. The edging tool comprises of a blade ( 1 or 3) situated at an angle so the tip of the blade is in perfect alignment to the top of the laminate product or worktop so when drawn backwards or forwards the blade will score the laminate to be trimmed in line with the adjacent edge. The process is repeated until the laminate edge to be trimmed, is cut through completely. The other side of the blade is situated so the exposed end of the blade is at 45 degree angle. When applied to the edge of the laminate that has already been trimmed it will marry the two pieces of laminate at a perfect 45 degree angle when drawn backwards. This process can be repeated until the edges are perfectly married together.
