Patent number: 6888423Abstract: An electronic filter assembly comprises a housing, first and second circuit board surfaces, first and second cable TV filter circuits, a ground plane, and first and second electrical terminals. The housing includes first and second cable connectors in opposed relation to each other and contains an interior volume. The circuit board surfaces are in superposed relation to each other and engage the housing within the interior volume. The circuit board surfaces face away from each other in opposite directions. The cable TV filter circuits are mounted on the circuit board surfaces, respectively. The ground plane is disposed between the circuit board surfaces. The ground plane contacts the filter housing within the interior volume. The electrical terminals are coupled to the filter circuits. The first terminal extends into and is supported inside the first cable connector, and the second terminal extends into and is supported inside the second cable connector.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2003Date of Patent: May 3, 2005Assignee: Arrow Communication Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Andrew F. Tresness, Martin L. Zelenz, Jerry M. Gould

Patent number: 6674343Abstract: An electronic filter assembly of the type that includes a female terminal cap having a fitting portion and containing a terminal passage through the fitting portion, and a collet assembly secured in and substantially closing the terminal passage of the female terminal cap. The collet assembly comprises an insulator, a collet terminal, and a seal. The insulator is made from a single piece of insulator material, containing a bore therethrough. The collet terminal extends through the bore of the insulator. The seal is located inside the terminal passage of the female terminal cap, between the collet terminal and the female terminal cap.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2001Date of Patent: January 6, 2004Assignee: Tresness Irrevocable Patent TrustInventors: Jerry M. Gould, Andrew F. Tresness

Publication number: 20030117235Abstract: A filter assembly, comprising first and second terminal caps in opposing relation to each other. The caps are physically and electrically coupled to each other. First and second circuit boards are physically coupled to the first cap. The first circuit board includes—(i) front and rear surfaces, (ii) a first circuit located on either or both of the front and rear surfaces, (iii) a ground lead connected to the first circuit, and (iv) a first electrical terminal coupled to the first circuit. The second circuit board includes—(i) front and rear surfaces, (ii) a second circuit located on either or both of the front and rear surfaces, (iii) a ground lead connected to the second circuit, and (iv) a second electrical terminal coupled to the second circuit. The first and second circuits are electrically coupled to each other, and each are electrically coupled to the first terminal cap via the ground leads. The circuit boards are positioned substantially parallel to each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 13, 2002Publication date: June 26, 2003Applicant: Eagle Comtronics, Inc.Inventors: Michael Lamb, Martin L. Zelenz, Jerry M. Gould

Patent number: 4149437Abstract: An adjustable support liner for securely holding a workpiece centered in a machine tool that includes an elongated sleeve having a plurality of clamping units mounted therein capable of holding the work centered in the machine in an undistorted posture. Each clamping unit contains a ring-like body for encompassing the work that is formed of two hinged sections. Each section, in turn, has an axially extended jaw member depending outwardly therefrom and means to rotate the jaws between a fully opened and a fully closed position whereby a symmetrical centering pressure can be continually applied by the jaws over the entire working range of the apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 1978Date of Patent: April 17, 1979Assignee: Lipe-Rollway CorporationInventors: Paul N. Winberg, Alexander Harsuk, Jerry M. Gould
