  • Patent number: 5423549
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device with a signal receiving unit for locating golf balls. Each golf ball is associated with a transmitting unit and the signals emitted by each transmitting unit are detected by the signal receiving unit. The transmitting unit is associated with an energy store as an operating voltage source. The device includes a charging circuit with an energy transmitter for wireless transmission of the electrical energy to an energy receiver connected in front of the energy store. Immediately after the charging phase of the energy store, the transmitting unit starts sending transmission signals and in so doing discharges the energy store. The transmitted signals received by the signal receiving unit are fed to an evaluation circuit which produces an output signal for locating the golf ball. This output signal is then fed to a display unit. After a certain discharge time, the transmitting unit stops transmitting the transmission signals.

  • Patent number: 4998094
    Abstract: A safeguard device is provided with a high frequency sensor which triggers an alarm device after receiving high frequency energy. To prevent the alarm device being rendered ineffective by high frequency shielding of the safeguard device, a metal sensor is provided in addition which activates the alarm device regardless of the presence of high frequency energy when it is attempted to shield the safeguard device.

  • Patent number: 4760535
    Abstract: A control circuit for tuning a high-frequency input circuit comprises, in addition to a first adjustable component 5 which is directly controlled by a control voltage, further adjustable components 6, 10 which are likewise under the influence of a control voltage UD and UR, respectively. In order to enable individual alignment of the further components in a simple manner, there is fed to the further controllable components 6, 10 via an electronic circuit arrangement 7 one correction voltage each, which supports or weakens the control voltage in its effect and effects the respectively required alignment. The correction voltages are dependent upon the control voltage UD which is fed solely to the first adjustable component 5.
