Abstract: An idler roller assembly comprises a base frame which includes first and second spaced-apart mounting brackets, a support frame which includes a support tube that comprises a first end which is positioned adjacent the first mounting bracket and a second end which is positioned adjacent the second mounting bracket, and a locking shaft assembly which includes a stationary sleeve which is secured to the first mounting bracket and a rotating sleeve which is rotatably supported by the stationary sleeve and is secured to the first end of the support tube. The stationary sleeve comprises a first contact surface and the rotating sleeve comprises a second contact surface, and the locking shaft assembly further includes a lock spool which comprises a first lock surface which conforms to the first contact surface and a second lock surface which conforms to the second contact surface.

Abstract: A direction finding method and apparatus utilizes two receiving antennas which are disposed on a baseline that is rotated around its midpoint at a constant angular velocity. Signals received from a transmitter by the antennas are processed by circuitry that includes a balanced mixer. The balanced mixer multiplies the signals from the two antennas, which are time varying and of different phase due to their rotation and spacing. The output from the balanced mixer is a signal which includes a high frequency component, and a low frequency component. The high frequency component can be used to determine incoming signal amplitude and frequency. The low frequency component can be used to determine the azimuth and elevation angles of the transmitter relative to the plane of rotation of the receiver through analysis of the signal at a number of different times.
