Frank R. Monforte 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).

  • Precision dielectric filled ferrite toroid for use in microwave devices
    Patent number: 4316923
    Abstract: The process provides practical manufacture of a two-piece, dielectric filled, ferrite toroid assembly while providing optimum electromagnetic characteristics presently not consistently available by manufacturing the toroid in a pressed one-piece configuration. A pair of complementary ferrite blanks of selected shapes are machined to dimension, and the mating surfaces thereof are selectively lapped. The complementary ferrite parts are then permanently assembled about a pre-machined dielectric insert, and the composite toroid is secured together by a selected adhesive selectively disposed therein.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 26, 1980
    Date of Patent: February 23, 1982
    Assignee: Ampex Corporation
    Inventors: Frank R. Monforte, Giltan M. Argentina
