Patent number: 7092679Abstract: A low loss transmit/receive switch includes a 1st antenna capacitive coupling circuit, a 2nd antenna capacitive coupling circuit, an antenna selection circuit, a 1st inductive coupling circuit, and a 2nd inductive coupling circuit. The 1st antenna capacitive coupling circuit is operably coupled to a 1st antenna. The 2nd antenna capacitive coupling circuit is operably coupled to a 2nd antenna. The antenna selection circuit is operably coupled to enable the 1st or the 2nd antenna in accordance with an antenna selection signal. The 1st inductive coupling circuit is operably coupled to the 1st and the 2nd antenna capacitive coupling circuits and to an output of a power amplifier. The 2nd inductive coupling circuit is operably coupled to the 1st and the 2nd antenna capacitive coupling circuits and to an input of the low noise amplifier.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2003Date of Patent: August 15, 2006Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventor: Shahla Khorram

Patent number: 6883433Abstract: A method of operating a sheet-fed printing press having a sheet guide module, removable from the sheet-fed printing press and then inserted back into the sheet-fed printing press again, and a machine control system, includes the steps of monitoring a position of the sheet guide module with respect to its correct operating position with the machine control system, and, based upon results of the position monitoring, the machine control system keeping the sheet-fed printing process in a first operating mode when the sheet guide module is located in the correct operating position, and keeping it in a second operating mode with at least one operating function that is restricted as compared with the first operating mode when the sheet guide module is out of the correct operating position. Also provided is a sheet-fed printing press suitable for carrying out the method.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2004Date of Patent: April 26, 2005Assignee: Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AGInventors: Günter Stephan, Wolfgang Wolf

Patent number: 4338090Abstract: Process of producing and a resulting simulated "Berber" yarn produced from long staple spun or continuous filament yarn, preferably having continuous filaments or fibers at least six inches in length, and more preferably continuous filament nylon, to provide strength and other desired characteristics of such yarn while simulating the natural aesthetic appearance of "Berber" wool yarn. The yarn, preferably after having been initially completely dyed with a base color, is surface dyed at selected areas of varying sizes and random locations along the length of the yarn with heather colors or shades which do not penetrate all the way through the yarn for simulating varying staple lengths of natural wool fibers, and is thereafter dyed on small selected areas of the yarn at random locations along the length with one or more "Berber" accent colors which penetrate all the way through the yarn for simulating small clumps of very short natural wool fibers.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 1980Date of Patent: July 6, 1982Assignee: Rossville Yarn Processing CompanyInventor: William F. Hutcheson

Patent number: 4304181Abstract: A printer for a desk computer includes a card case adapted to accommodate a large number of cards. The cards accommodated in the card case are pressed toward an open end of the card case by a biasing means. A movable frame is adapted to move up and down while keeping in slidable engagement with the open end of the card case. When the movable frame comes down with a card held therein, the card is impressed by the counterrotation of an impression cylinder against the inked printing surface on a plate cylinder.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 1979Date of Patent: December 8, 1981Inventor: Keisuke Fukumochi

Patent number: 4059051Abstract: A data recorder is provided including a removable cartridge which carries both a sales form and an underlying log sheet. The fixed and variable data are imprinted by reciprocation of a platen carriage, with return of the carriage to the home position causing ejection of the credit card and loading of a stored energy mechanism. When the sales form is removed, the stored energy mechanism is released, whereby the log sheet is incrementally advanced to the next position.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 1974Date of Patent: November 22, 1977Assignee: Addressograph Multigraph CorporationInventors: John A. Maul, Richard E. Valentine

Patent number: 4014257Abstract: Apparatus for supporting a die plate having indicia formed thereon by a raised rib and for forcing a tape into engagement with the raised rib to cut indicia from said tape corresponding to the indicia on the die. The apparatus utilizes a flat platen supporting one side of the die, a roller mounted on a movable frame and spring biased toward the die plate. A tape is guided across the surface of the die plate at an oblique angle to the direction of movement of the roller such that to cut alphabetic or numerical indicia the cutting is generally taking place at spaced points on the surface of the roller and generally no cuts are made along a line defining a portion of the indicia. The apparatus is cycled by an operating lever to move the roller across the surface of the tape under sufficient spring pressure to afford the cutting operation and then the roller is retracted as the operating handle is returned to the normal position.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 1975Date of Patent: March 29, 1977Assignee: Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing CompanyInventor: Larry A. Bettenhausen

Patent number: 3945316Abstract: An improved apparatus for the recording of credit card transactions at point of sale, and for reporting said transactions to a central accounting and processing activity. The instant invention includes a self contained, compact, portable and lightweight cassette-like transaction log recorder which is adapted to be releasably and operatively engageable with an imprinter mechanism. The recorder contains both an external duplicate sales ticket and an internal continuous form log sheet for the sequential recording of individual transactions at the time various data is applied to successive sales tickets. The recorder is also provided with external receiving means for receiving the customer's credit card at a receiving station, means for translating the card from the receiving station to an imprinting station, means for latching the card immovably at the imprinting station to an external removing station.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 1974Date of Patent: March 23, 1976Assignee: Dymo Industries, Inc.Inventors: Morton W. Thomson, Mitchel A. Trout

Patent number: 3934506Abstract: An apparatus for imprinting intermittently advanced webs has a carriage mounted for reciprocal displacement parallel to the web on a support. The web passes between a backup plate and a print roller rotatably mounted on the carriage. The carriage is displaced in one direction while the web is at rest, the print roller being coupled to the support for rotation during displacement of the carriage to effect printing by engaging the web against the backup plate. Printing is effected during displacement of the carriage in both directions.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 1974Date of Patent: January 27, 1976Assignee: Adolph Gottscho, Inc.Inventors: Murray N. Levy, Vincent J. Gasparino
