Patent number: 10074912Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure may be directed to an end cap of a base station antenna for securing cable connectors to the end cap. The end cap may include a plurality of retaining assemblies formed integrally with the cap, and are dimensioned to retain a respective plurality of cable connectors to the end cap. The end cap may be capable of supporting numerous antenna models and configurations. The end cap may include molded features allowing for DIN connectors for various antenna models to be snapped into the end cap, without the use of other hardware and formed end bracket assemblies.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2015Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: CommScope Technologies LLCInventors: Steven Lee Schmutzler, Troy Inslee Vanderhoof

Patent number: 6800114Abstract: A pressure equalization apparatus for decreasing or eliminating the pressure differential between the internal pressure within a sealed system and the external ambient air pressure while concurrently sustaining a dry atmosphere inside the enclosure. The apparatus includes a variable volume chamber coupled in fluid communication with the sealed system and adapted to change its volume as in relation to the pressurization of the sealed system. Gas flowing between the sealed system and the variable volume chamber, as the pressurization changes, is exposed to an adsorbent operative for dehumidifying the exchanged gas.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2002Date of Patent: October 5, 2004Assignee: Andrew CorporationInventors: Troy Inslee Vanderhoof, Brian Douglas Cross, John Michael Curry, Gordon L. Treichler

Patent number: 6795753Abstract: A compressor control module for use with a pressurization system having a strain gauge transducer and a compressor. The compressor control module includes variable voltage references associated with low and high pressure limits, comparator circuits configured to compare the voltage from the strain gauge pressure transducer to the variable voltage references, a control logic circuit configured to logically combine signals from the comparator circuits, and a relay circuit configured to apply power to the compressor.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2002Date of Patent: September 21, 2004Assignee: Andrew CorporationInventors: Troy Inslee Vanderhoof, Brian Douglas Cross, John Michael Curry, Carl Richard Reese

Publication number: 20040045187Abstract: Apparatus and method for drying articles either free of applied heat or with a significantly reduced heating requirement. The apparatus includes a drying gas source is operative to dehumidify a moisture-laden gas, such as ambient air, flowing in the flow path to provide a drying gas to a drying chamber of a receptacle holding the articles. The drying gas removes moisture, or other cleansing liquid, from articles held in the chamber. The drying gas and moisture entrained in the drying gas are exhausted from the receptacle. The apparatus may optionally be equipped to provide a cleansing liquid, such as water, to the receptacle for mixing with the articles before the drying gas is supplied.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2002Publication date: March 11, 2004Applicant: Andrew CorporationInventors: John Michael Curry, Troy Inslee Vanderhoof, Brian Douglas Cross

Patent number: 6593525Abstract: A system configured to deliver dry pressurized air, derived from ambient air, to underground or outdoor cables, conduit, waveguides, plenums or other air spaces for the purpose of preventing the ingress of moisture or contamination. The system includes a housing and a modular membrane pressurization unit removably received within an interior space of the housing. The housing has a base configured for being at least partially buried below ground level and an air intake above ground level. The modular membrane pressurization unit intakes humid ambient air from the environment surrounding the housing and generates a continuous supply of dry pressurized air housing that is routed to the underground air space.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2002Date of Patent: July 15, 2003Assignee: Andrew CorporationInventors: Troy Inslee Vanderhoof, Brian Douglas Cross, John Michael Curry
