  • Patent number: 11780675
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a carriage lift assembly including a mast member, a top and bottom bearing assembly, one or more belt members, one or more belt tensioner assemblies, and one or more carriage assemblies. Each belt tensioner assembly defines a first clamping block and a second clamping block for securing a first and a second end, respectively, of a belt member to provide initial tension, and a pair of bolt members adjusted to move a slidable plate member upon which the second block is coupled to provide final tension. Each carriage assembly is removably attached to a corresponding belt tensioner assembly, and defines a center plate and two side plates. Each side plate defines at least a removable set of guiding wheels and a first set of guiding members.

  • Publication number: 20230198132
    Abstract: An antenna arrangement comprises an antenna which has an antenna body and a radiator arrangement. An antenna holder comprises a base portion. An upper side of the antenna holder points to-wards an underside of the antenna body and an underside of the antenna holder points towards an electrically conductive base plate. Only a supporting part of the underside of the antenna body rests on the base portion, so that a receiving space is formed be-tween another part of the underside of the antenna body and the base portion. The base portion of the antenna holder is electrically non-conductive, whereby the another part of the underside of the antenna body is capacitively coupled to the base plate via the receiving space.
