Abstract: A device for facilitating eye and ear protection. The device includes an eyeglass frame having left and right temple pieces, a lens support member and lenses appended to the lens support member. Left and right ear plug housings are supported by each of the left and right temple pieces and ear plugs being removably retained within the ear plug housings. Umbilicals connect the ear plugs to the eyeglass frame which are of a length to enable a user to remove the ear plugs from their housings and to insert the ear plugs within ear canals of the user whenever the eyeglass frame is worn.

Abstract: A remote waveguide flange clamp system (10, 11) detachably connects a first waveguide section (20) to a second waveguide section (30, 37). System (10, 11) is controlled remotely by a controller (60). A pair of elongated clamping levers (40) is mounted pivotally to pins (42) on bracket arms (39) of section (30, 37). Levers (40) rotate about pins (42) when a motor assembly (51) moves driving ends (47) of levers (40) outwardly or inwardly relative to section (30, 37). When ends (47) move outwardly, clamping ends (44) of levers (40) apply a compressive force to flanges (22, 32) of sections (20, 30) to provide a gasketed seal (80) inhibiting RF leakage therebetween. Assembly (51) includes a torque sensor (66) for continuously applying current to a motor (50) in assembly (51) until sensor (66) measures current substantially equaling a predefined value.
