  • Publication number: 20140010124
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, an antenna apparatus includes an antenna, a duplexer, a reception circuit, a phase controller, a combining unit, a thermally insulating container and a cooling unit. A reception circuit configured to separate a frequency of a signal received by the antenna into a plurality of reception pathways via BPFs (Band Pass Filters) corresponding to the number of transmittable frequencies, extract the reception signals, amplify with low noise the extracted reception signals by an LNA (Low Noise Filter) for the separated reception pathways, select a reception pathway corresponding to the transmission frequency from the separated reception pathways, and output the reception signal amplified with low noise to the selected reception pathway.

  • Patent number: 8459133
    Abstract: The swinging operation of a rotary striker turns micro switches and, which detect the position of a piston, ON/OFF. The striker includes a lower-limit switch cam and an upper-limit switch cam. The cams and engage with switch bosses and that move together with the piston. When the piston is positioned at a lower-limit stop position L, the cam becomes engaged with the boss to make the striker swing in the X-direction and pushes a switch button of the switch. When the piston is positioned at an upper-limit stop position U, the cam becomes engaged with the boss to make the striker swing in the Y-direction and pushes a switch button of the switch.

  • Patent number: 8164005
    Abstract: A multilayer high-frequency circuit board includes a signal line, ground layers, and an interlayer circuit. A signal line where a high-frequency signal flows is formed in the signal line layer. The ground layers are laminated on both sides of the signal line layer, each of which is grounded. The interlayer circuit is provided in the signal line layer and includes a ground connecting portion connected to the ground layers and a signal line connecting portion connected to the signal line. One of the signal line connecting portion and the ground connecting portion surrounds an outer periphery of the other of the signal line connecting portion and the ground connecting portion concentrically with the one being separated from the outer periphery of the other along the signal line layer. An inner periphery of the one and the outer periphery of the other have a similar shape excluding a complete circle.

  • Publication number: 20110100141
    Abstract: The swinging operation of a rotary striker 14 turns micro switches 11 and 12, which detect the position of a piston 9, ON/OFF. The striker 14 includes a lower-limit switch cam 15 and an upper-limit switch cam 16. The cams 15 and 16 engage with switch bosses 36 and 37 that move together with the piston 9. When the piston 9 is positioned at a lower-limit stop position L, the cam 15 becomes engaged with the boss 36 to make the striker 14 swing in the X-direction and pushes a switch button 11a of the switch 11. When the piston 9 is positioned at an upper-limit stop position U, the cam 16 becomes engaged with the boss 37 to make the striker 14 swing in the Y-direction and pushes a switch button 12a of the switch 12.
