Inventor: SEATON ARTHUR F
IPC: H01Q3/20
Filed: 1992-05-21
Abstract: A fixed feed dual reflector scanning antenna system (10) having a low moment of inertia is disclosed. The inventive dual reflector antenna system (10) includes an antenna feed structure (16) for emitting electromagnetic radiation (R). The antenna system (10) further includes a subreflector (12) for redirecting the emitted radiation (R). The subreflector (12) is intersected by a subreflector longitudinal axis (L s ) at a rotation point proximate a vertex (20) of the subreflector (12). A main antenna reflector (14) circumscribing a main longitudinal axis (L m ) projects radiation redirected by the subreflector (12) as an antenna beam. A mechanical arrangement (22) rotates the subreflector (12) about the rotation point so as to vary the angular orientation between the subreflector longitudinal axis (L s ) and the main longitudinal axis (L m ). In this manner the antenna beam is scanned relative to the main longitudinal axis (L m ).

IPC: B29C51/32
Filed: 1992-08-06
Abstract: A precise flange is formed about a plastic container in a single operation by providing cooperating coining and cooling surfaces (14A,18A) into two mold elements that are surrounded by a cutting die (26). The flange is formed by deforming a thermoplastic container-forming material (25), which has been heated above its glass transition temperature, between the coining and cooling surfaces to coin and form the flange to a predetermined precise shape and thickness. Thereafter the coining and cooling surfaces are moved together while clamping and maintaining the thermoplastic material at the predetermined coining thickness within the cutting die to cut the flange with a precise diameter. Such methods and apparatus are particularly useful for the formation of plastic containers which can be sealed by double seaming.

Abstract: An improved method of assembling conventional scales, including bathroom scales, is provided by employing an improved spring for connecting the upper housing to the bottom pan. The upper housing may now be connected to the bottom pan with a simple downward force imposed on the improved spring thereby hooking the bottom of the spring to the bottom pan and mateably engaging the tapered top of the spring in an extruded hole in the upper housing. The improved spring is tapered at the top end to mateably engage the extruded hole in the upper housing and includes only one hook on the bottom end for engagement with the bottom pan. The improved spring enables easier and faster assembly of conventional scales thereby reducing labor and production costs.

Abstract: The sleeve (21) consists of an essentially cylindrical outer layer (22) of glass-fibre-reinforced plastic and an inner layer (23) consisting of polyurethane. Approximately in the centre between the two sleeve ends (21a, 21b), this inner layer has a rib (26) which is used as a stop for the ends of the two pipes (24, 25) which are to be joined to one another. Between this rib (26) and the one sleeve end (21a), the sleeve has an approximately conical internal shape, which has a diameter which increases towards the outside, this conical surface (27) also being provided with two sealing beads (28, 29). A cylindrical section (33), a sawtooth-shaped rib (35) and an annular groove (36) are located between the other sleeve end (21b) and the rib (26). Such a sleeve can be fitted relatively easily onto the end of a pipe (24) and can also be joined thereto, by means of an adhesive, such that it cannot be detached. A pipe (25) having an essentially identical diameter can be inserted into the other sleeve end, which pipe is seated in a sealed manner in the sleeve even if the axes (30, 37) of the sleeve (21) and pipe (25) do not coincide but form a small angle with one another. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A hydrophilic polymer, e.g., provided as a contact lens, is tinted by a method which incorporates a reactive dye into the polymer during formation of the latter. Following physical entrainment of the reactive dye in the polymer, the polymer is contacted with an aqueous solution of a base which catalyzes the reaction of the dye with the polymer. In this way, the dye becomes permanently covalently bound to the polymer.

Abstract: An air filter (1) capable of improving a combustion efficiency of the engine of a vehicle. A functional film (5) comprising a dispersion of particles of a silicon mineral and yttrium, barium and cerium in a film forming resin laminated on a metallic substrate (4) and the resultant laminated transit member (3, 7, 8, 9) is punched to form a multiple through-holes. The so formed laminated member constitutes a transit member (3, 7, 8, 9). The transit member (3, 7, 8, 9) is incorporated into a known filter body (2) to thereby manufacture the air filter (1). Since the conventional filter body (2) is combined with the transit member (3, 7, 8, 9), dirt or contaminants in the air are removed by the filter body (2). Since on passage through the transmit member (3, 7, 8, 9), air is activated by the action of a wave-generating sintered product contained in the functional film (5) in the form of particles. The air which has been cleaned and activated is fed into the engine. This eventually leads to an improvements of the combustion efficiency of the engine.
