Patents by Inventor Cheng Young Hong

Cheng Young Hong has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Sensor assembly with lead attachment
    Patent number: 7181977
    Abstract: A beam-type sensor capable of measuring displacement or acceleration includes a thin, flexible sheet of piezoresponsive material defining broad sides and a proximal end. In order to optimize boundary conditions, the proximal end of the sheet is supported by a clamp that provides a “clean” transition between support and no-support. Electrical connections to conductors associated with the broad sides are integrated into the clamp. In one embodiment, two sheets of piezoelectric material are connected electrically in parallel. In another embodiment, two sheets of piezoelectric material are connected electrically in series.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 22, 2003
    Date of Patent: February 27, 2007
    Assignee: Measurement Specialties, Inc.
