Abstract: A folded slot structurally integrated antenna is defined within the structure of the vertical stabilizer. The folded slot structurally integrated antenna comprises a first terminal with a flared portion, a substantially constant slot width potion, and a second terminal with a flared portion. The substantially constant slot width potion may include one or more curvatures to extend the length of the folded slot structurally integrated antenna within the vertical stabilizer. The antenna system may utilize reactive loading or dynamic slot length switching. A platform may include folded slot structurally integrated antennas in both a vertical stabilizer and horizontal wings or winglets. Horizontal and vertical folded slot structurally integrated antennas may be utilized to produce various polarization profiles.

Abstract: A cage for a fluid valve. The cage includes a first cage ring, a second cage ring, and a lattice structure disposed between the first cage ring and the second cage ring. The lattice structure defines a plurality of interconnected flow paths between an internal surface of the lattice structure and an external surface of the lattice structure. The lattice structure has a non-uniform density.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods are directed toward manufacturing a diaphragm using three-dimensional printing techniques.

Abstract: A fluid valve includes a valve body having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A fluid passageway connects the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. A trim assembly is located within the fluid passageway and the trim assembly cooperates with a control member to control fluid flow through the fluid passageway. The trim assembly includes a cage having a lattice structure.

Abstract: A roller stop (50) for a sectional door (D) having a plurality of hinged panels 20, rollers (30) attached to the panels, and a pair of tracks (T, T?) receiving the rollers for guiding the sectional door between a closed vertical position and an open horizontal position, the roller stop having a body portion (27), and at least one clamping member 67, 68 associated with the body portion adapted to engage one of the tracks, wherein the body portion is adapted to contact at least one of the rollers to temporarily maintain the sectional door in a predetermined position.

Abstract: An apparatus for heating fluids includes a pipe through which the fluid to be heated flows having a ferromagnetic pipe attached in heat-transmitting relationship thereto. An insulated wire extends longitudinally through the ferromagnetic pipe and is electrically connected in series therewith. The secondary windings of a pair of transformers are connected in series with each other and the ferromagnetic pipe by the insulated wire and the primary windings of the transformers are connected to a source of alternating current. A control responsive to the temperature of the fluid in the fluid conveying pipe is provided for regulating the power output to the series connected ferromagnetic pipe and insulated wire by, in alternative embodiments, disconnecting the transformers from the circuit, reversing the polarity of one transformer secondary with respect to the secondary of the other or bypassing one of the transformers.
