  • Publication number: 20060163934
    Abstract: An outdoor chair has a chair frame, two seat frames, a chair body and two flexible rods. The seat frames are mounted on the chair frame, and each seat frame has a C-shaped upper bent end segment, a C-shaped lower bent end segment and a mounting slot. The chair body is made of fabric, is mounted between the seat frames and has a C-shaped upper edge segment, a C-shaped lower edge and two tubes. The flexible rods are mounted respectively in the tubes of the chair body to tightly mount the chair body between the seat frames. The upper and the lower bent edges of the chair body prevent the chair body from slipping along the seat frames. The upper edge segment of the chair body keeps the upper edge of the chair body from pressing against the neck of a person sitting in the outdoor chair.

  • Patent number: 6584081
    Abstract: The invention describes method and apparatus for reducing intermodulation interference caused by reception of undesired signals in wireless receivers. The apparatus comprises an antenna for receiving the desired signal, a low noise amplifier for amplifying this signal, an adjustable attenuator, and a transmitting antenna to transmit the amplified signal to the wireless receiver. By increasing the strength of the desired signal, the present invention eliminates intermodulation distortion caused by the undesirable signals. The invention also describes an apparatus further comprising an adjustable filter for limiting the spectral content of the transmitted amplified signal, and an apparatus for selecting the characteristics of the adjustable filter in accordance with the measured characteristics of the desired and undesired signals.
