Patent number: 11276914Abstract: The present disclosure describes antenna mounts. An antenna mount may include a base, a main pole coupled to or integral with the base and extending upwardly from the base, a cross-support pole coupled to a top end of the main pole and oriented perpendicular relative to the main pole, and at least one mounting pole coupled to or integral with the cross-support pole and extending upwardly from the cross-support pole. Each mounting pole may be configured to secure an antenna to the antenna mount. The antenna mount may be configured to be installed and stand adjacent to or flush against an exterior wall of a building and carry the load weight of the antennas to and through the base of the antenna mount to a ground surface and away from the exterior wall of the building. Antenna mount assemblies are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2020Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: CommScope Technologies LLCInventors: Dale Heath, Matthew Severin

Patent number: 6883317Abstract: An adjustable turbocharger wastegate controller suitable for after-market installation is disclosed. The invention makes use of the existing factory wastegate mechanism to form a fully adjustable turbine-inlet pressure relief. The factory wastegate valve assembly and the wastegate lever-arm connected to the wastegate shaft are utilized. The invention extends the lever-arm, and applies seating pressure to the valve with a spring assembly using a substantially lower spring-rate than the factory assembly. The spring loading is adjustable over a very wide range, and improved pressure regulation is achieved.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2003Date of Patent: April 26, 2005Inventor: William Dale Heath

In the after-market installation, the invention makes use of the existing factory wastegate mechanism to form a fully adjustable turbine-inlet pressure relief. The factory wastegate valve assembly and the wastegate lever-arm connected to the wastegate shaft are utilized. The invention extends the lever-arm, and applies seating pressure to the valve with a spring assembly using a substantially lower spring-rate than the factory assembly. The spring loading is adjustable over a very wide range, and improved pressure regulation is achieved. The adjustment allows for operation of the vehicle's turbocharger to be adapted for conditions.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2003Publication date: October 23, 2003Inventor: William Dale Heath
