  • Publication number: 20040150146
    Abstract: The liquid-sealing type vibration isolating apparatus of the present invention includes a coupler attached to a vibrating body, a holder, an insulator for absorbing and isolating vibration from the vibrating body at a position between the coupler and the holder, and a vibration isolating mechanism directly following the insulator and including liquid chambers sealing an incompressible fluid. This vibration isolating mechanism has a main chamber sealing a liquid, having a part of wall thereof formed by the insulator, an auxiliary chamber communicating with the main chamber via an orifice, and an equilibrium chamber provided in a portion of the main chamber via a diaphragm and having a varying volume in the chamber. The vibration isolating apparatus further includes switching means for introducing a negative pressure and the atmospheric pressure continuously or in synchronization with vibration of the vibrating body, and control means for controlling this switching operation.

  • Patent number: 6768383
    Abstract: A bias circuit is provided for attenuating harmonic distortions of a signal having a simple construction and which can be applied to a high-frequency amplifier used in a communication device, such as a mobile telephone. The circuit reduces a voltage drop therein and thus provides a high-frequency amplifier having reduced power consumption and an increased operating efficiency. The high-frequency amplifier includes an amplifier circuit, an output matching circuit, and the bias circuit. In the bias circuit, a parallel circuit including a first transmission line and a first capacitor has one end connected between the amplifier and the output matching circuit. The other end of the parallel circuit is connected to a power source and is grounded via a second capacitor. In the circuit, the bias circuit can be short-circuited in a desired frequency band while being an open circuit in a frequency band of a signal to be amplified, hence attenuating the harmonic distortions without using a low pass filter.
