A pager antenna system having two conductive containers which act as radiators and form a dipole antenna is disclosed. A metallic coil constructed of tubular material is positioned between the conductive containers and has a first end electrically connected to one of the containers. The tubular coil forms part of an antenna impedance matching network and also serves as a conduit for wires which interconnect circuit components located in each of the conductive containers. High frequency isolating...

A relatively low cost, easy to install and aesthetically pleasing digital video broadcast from satellite (DVBS) elliptical horn antenna designed to receive satellite television broadcast signals with circular polarity. This type antenna may be implemented as a multi-beam, multi-band antenna with closely spaced antenna feed horns operable for simultaneously receiving signals from multiple satellites that are closely spaced from the perspective of the antenna.

A spacecraft, along with a spacecraft radiator system and spacecraft heat dissipation method are disclosed. The spacecraft comprises a body, a plurality of solar arrays, and the spacecraft radiator system. The spacecraft radiator system comprises first and second opposite facing payload radiators, first and second opposite facing deployable radiators, and one or more coupling or loop heat pipes cross coupling opposite facing payload and deployable radiators so that they function in tandem. By cr...

A dual circuit cooling system for a vehicle having an engine and a turbocharger aftercooler includes a modular radiator system having partitions in the tanks of the radiator. The partitions create separate radiator sections, and the partitions contain orifices that provide a crossover function between the sections. During cooler engine operating temperatures the engine thermostat closes which causes engine coolant to be circulated mainly within the engine, and which also causes pressure downstre...

A packaging component and packaging system are disclosed. In an embodiment specifically adapted as a system for packaging vehicular radiators, the invention provides a generally planar tray member component as a blank having two opposed sides, with a portion of each opposed side being foldable out of the plane of the tray member to yield arms to the tray. Strapping is supplied which is engageable with the arms when the arms are folded upon the radiator placed upon the tray member. Opposed ends f...

An engine cooling system includes a primary two-pass radiator, a jacket water pump pumping coolant from the primary radiator to the engine, and a secondary radiator receiving coolant from the primary radiator in parallel with the engine. An after cooler for cooling engine charge air from a turbo charger receives coolant from the secondary radiator, and water is circulated to the after cooler by a SCAC pump. A shunt tank is connected to the suction of the jacket water pump to establish a static p...

An electronic apparatus comprises a heat-generating component, a main unit having a heat-receiving portion thermally connected to the heat-generating component, and a display unit supported by the main unit. The display unit incorporates a heat-radiating portion which radiates the heat of the heat-generating component. A circulating path connects the heat-receiving portion and the heat-radiating portion and circulates liquid coolant. The heat-radiating portion includes a first radiator and a sec...

An integrated circuit to be cooled may be abutted in face-to-face abutment with a cooling integrated circuit. The cooling integrated circuit may include electroosmotic pumps to pump cooling fluid through the cooling integrated circuits via microchannels to thereby cool the heat generating integrated circuit. The electroosmotic pumps may be fluidically coupled to external radiators which extend upwardly away from a package including the integrated circuits. In particular, the external radiators m...

An active noise control subassembly array for reducing noise caused by a source (such as an aircraft engine). A pair of subassemblies each has a piezoceramic-driven noise radiating panel to generate a panel noise canceling at least some of the source noise. A front plate is spaced apart from the panel and has a sound exit port. A first pair of spaced-apart side walls each generally abuts the panel and the front plate so as to generally enclose a front cavity to define a resonator. A back plate i...
