Siegfried Mailaender has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9743907
    Abstract: The present invention relates to transducer housing and a tool for opening and closing the transducer housing (20). The transducer housing comprises a base body (22) and a lid (24) which are releasable coupled with a rotational coupling (26). The lid (24) comprises a contact area (42) formed to be engaged by a driving pin (64) of the tool (10) in order to open or close the transducer housing (20) upon a rotation of the lid (24) relative to the base body (22). The tool (10) comprises a base portion (12) and an upper portion (14) that are coupleable wherein the upper portion can be rotated relative to the base portion.

  • Patent number: 6989902
    Abstract: A measuring setup for measuring an optical device under test—DUT—includes an optical signal source for applying an optical signal to the DUT, and an optical receiver unit for measuring a response of the DUT on the applied signal. A measurement unit is coupled between the optical signal source and the optical receiver unit. The measurement unit comprises an optical circuit to provide optical signals from and/or to the DUT for measuring the DUT, whereby the optical circuit comprises optical components showing high susceptibility to mechanical noise. A shielding unit receives the optical circuit and provides at least partial shielding of the optical circuit and/or the DUT against mechanical noise.

  • Publication number: 20030011778
    Abstract: A measuring setup (100, 10, 140) for measuring an optical device under test—DUT-(120) comprises an optical signal source (100) for applying an optical signal to the DUT (120), and an optical receiver unit (140) for measuring a response of the DUT (120) on the applied signal. A measurement unit (10) is coupled between the optical signal source (100) and the optical receiver unit (140). The measurement unit (10) comprises an optical circuit (20) to provide optical signals from and/or to the DUT (120) for measuring the DUT (120), whereby the optical circuit (20) comprises optical components (130) showing high susceptibility to mechanical noise. A shielding unit (30, 40) receives the optical circuit (20) and provides at least partial shielding of the optical circuit (20) and/or the DUT (120) against mechanical noise.
