  • Patent number: 9843852
    Abstract: A shock mount for a microphone comprises a first frame member having an upper ring-shaped frame member and a lower ring-shaped frame member. The lower frame member has a microphone mount for receiving a microphone. The shock mount also has a second frame member comprising a ring. The first frame member is suspended from the second member by wire rope or other substantially non-elastic flexible material, and the wire rope is configured to help reduce the amount of vibration encountered by the first frame member. A method comprises providing a first frame member and a second frame member and suspending the first frame member from the second frame member by wire rope or other substantially non-elastic flexible material and mounting a microphone on the first frame member to help reduce the amount of vibration encountered by the first frame member and the microphone.

  • Publication number: 20100128433
    Abstract: A pedestal style electronics enclosure provides an upright housing for enclosing electronic components. Installed at the top of the housing can be a hollow enclosure cap that defines an internal air gap. The air gap can be located between an upper, dome-like shield plate exposed to the exterior and a lower, contoured guide plate exposed to the interior of the enclosure. The air gap can help buffer the enclosure from solar radiation impinging upon the exterior shield plate. The interior contoured guide plate can help direct heated air rising in the interior of the enclosure to one or more vent panels located about the periphery of the cap. The hollow enclosure cap can be comprised of thermoplastic material and can be made as a single piece, monolithic structure produced by, for example, a blow molding process.
