  • Publication number: 20240372252
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a phase-shifting assembly, including an antenna phase shifter and a drive apparatus. The antenna phase shifter includes at least one first phase-shifting fixed unit, at least one first phase-shifting movable unit, and at least one first phase-shifting rotation mechanism. The drive apparatus includes a power mechanism configured to provide a drive force to the antenna phase shifter, a first rotation member connected to the power mechanism and coupled to the at least one first phase-shifting rotation mechanism, and a position-limiting member configured to limit the movement of the first phase-shifting rotation mechanism in an axial direction of the first phase-shifting rotation mechanism. The first rotation member transfers the drive force of the power mechanism to the first phase-shifting rotation mechanism through the first rotation member to control a relative movement between a fixed phase-shifting trace and a first movable phase-shifting trace.

  • Patent number: 11926880
    Abstract: Methods for forming a dual-phase magnetic component from an initial component comprising a non-magnetic austenite composition are provided. The method may include: forming a coating on a portion of the surface of the initial component to form a masked area while leaving an unmasked area thereon. Thereafter the initial component may be heated to a treatment temperature such that nitrogen diffuses out of the unmasked area of the initial component to transform the non-magnetic austenite composition to a magnetic phase in the unmasked area. Thereafter, the initial component may be cooled from the treatment temperature to form a dual-phase magnetic component having a magnetic region corresponding to the unmasked area and a non-magnetic region corresponding to the masked area.
