Abstract: An improved animal medical collar includes openings allowing pets, domestic, and captive wild animals wearing the medical collar to freely see and smell their surroundings while preventing access to a wound or surgical area. The openings are sized and spaced to allow the animal to view and smell it's surroundings and provides increased air circulation around the animal's head. Providing such viewing and perception of odors and scents relieves the stress and anxiety the animal would otherwise experience.

Abstract: A mounting apparatus for remotely adjusting the tilt and heading of cell antennas. Antenna tilt is provided by the cooperation of a hinged lower tilt bracket and an upper tilt bracket connected to the antenna by links. The upper tilt bracket is mounted to a vertically translating dust cover. Vertical motion of the dust cover is translated to tilting motion of the antenna by the links. Heading adjustment may be provided uniformly to entire sectors of antennas using a Pitman arm arrangement, or may be provided to each cell antenna individually using a helix heading adjustment apparatus.

Abstract: A cell phone antenna system having simple mechanical tilt and heading adjustments. The antennas are mounted to towers or other structures, and include sensors for measuring antenna tilt and/or heading. A single sensor signal is selected and provided to an interface unit. The interface unit processes the sensor signal and provides sensor information to one or more local or remote processors used to control or monitor the antennas. Antenna control signals generated by the local or remote processors may be provided to the interface unit, and resulting power signals directed to individual actuators on the antennas.

Abstract: Trip device of the suction or pull-in armature type, having a yoke (18; 35) supporting a fixed permanent magnet (22) and a movable elongated armature (23) having a head member (25). The armature (23) and the yoke (18; 35) forming a first magnetic circuit for holding the armature (23) in a first position with the permanent magnet (22), in which first position the head member (25) protrudes outside the yoke (18; 35). For moving the armature (23) electromagnetically and/or electrothermally to a second position in which the head member (25) protrudes further outside the yoke (18; 35), the yoke (18; 35) is provided with electrothermal bimetal device (33; 37).
