Publication number: 20170179633Abstract: A cable end termination is for a coaxial cable that includes inner and outer conductors and a dielectric layer therebetween that is subject to outgassing in a vacuum environment. The cable end termination may include a tubular bi-metallic body that includes a first longitudinal portion including a first metal and a second longitudinal portion joined with the first longitudinal portion and that includes a second metal having a different coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) than the first metal. The tubular bi-metallic body may have a first end receiving the coaxial cable and a second end opposite the first end that carries a dielectric body to define a hermetic seal for the dielectric layer in the vacuum environment. A center pin contact may extend through the dielectric body, and a center conductor contact may couple the center pin contact to the inner conductor.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2016Publication date: June 22, 2017Inventor: Edward A. TAYLOR

Publication number: 20170164090Abstract: Headphones that have one or two earphones. A headband carries the earphones such that they are held against the head of a wearer. A coupling member is located between the earphone and the headband, the coupling member pivotably mounted to the headband at a joint having a first axis around which the coupling member pivots, such that the earphone can be moved from a deployed position in which the earphone is positioned to be worn by the wearer to a stowed position in which the earphone is located closer to the headband than it is in the deployed position. A conductive cable runs from the earphone to the headband through the coupling member. The cable is held in place at a first anchor location in the headband, proximate the coupling member. There is slack in the cable between the first anchor location and the coupling member at least when the earphone is in the deployed position.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2017Publication date: June 8, 2017Inventor: Tristan Edward Taylor

Publication number: 20170150709Abstract: A portable attractant including a container, an absorbent pad and a heat bag is provided. The container is porous to allow scent from the absorbent pad to escape the container. The absorbent pad is disposed within the container and is operable to retain a scent substance within. The heat bag may be disposed in the container adjacent the absorbent pad. The heat bag includes a pouch and a mixture disposed within the pouch. The mixture is configured to produce an exothermic reaction, thereby heating the scent and making the scent exiting the container more prominent.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2015Publication date: June 1, 2017Inventor: Darren Edward Taylor
