20100059615 | Fishing reel - A fishing reel including a spool shaft extending through a reel frame with a handle crank attached thereto with a non-rotating spool collar and spool positioned about the spool shaft, and a rod mount connected to the reel frame pivotable 90 degrees from a first position with respect to the reel frame to a second position. When the rod mount is in the first position, and the handle crank is rotated, the spool oscillates in and out with respect to the reel frame and the spool rotates about the spool collar in a manner such that fishing line positioned on the line guide is spooled onto the spool when being reeled in, and when the rod mount is in the second position, the spool is generally parallel to the rod mount to allow line to be cast out from the spool. | 03-11-2010 |
20110102280 | ANTENNA ASSEMBLIES WITH ANTENNA ELEMENTS AND REFLECTORS - According to various aspects, exemplary embodiments are provided of antenna assemblies. In an exemplary embodiment, an antenna assembly generally includes at least one tapered loop antenna element having a generally annular shape with an opening. An antenna assembly may also include a rotatably convertible support including a base and an upper portion coupled to a tapered loop antenna element in some embodiments. The upper portion is rotatable relative to the base between a first configuration for supporting the tapered loop antenna element on a horizontal surface and a second configuration for supporting the tapered loop antenna element from a vertical surface. | 05-05-2011 |
20130113672 | ANTENNA ASSEMBLIES INCLUDING ANTENNA ELEMENTS WITH DIELECTRIC FOR FORMING CLOSED BOW TIE SHAPES - According to various aspects, exemplary embodiments are provided of bow tie antennas and antenna assemblies that include the same. In an exemplary embodiment, a bow tie antenna includes a pair of antenna elements. Each antenna element includes spaced apart end portions defining an open portion such that the antenna element has an open shape. The open shape is closed by dielectric material disposed between the spaced apart end portions and extending across a gap separating the spaced apart end portions, whereby the dielectric material and pair of antenna elements cooperatively define a closed bow tie shape for the bow tie antenna. | 05-09-2013 |
