20110245976 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR RETRACTABLE FAN COOLING OF ELECTRONIC ENCLOSURES - Systems and methods for a retractable fan cooling system for an electronics enclosure are provided. In one embodiment, a system comprises at least one cooling fan coupled to an electronics enclosure having a heat sink; and a fan positioning mechanism coupled to the at least one cooling fan. When a temperature inside the electronics enclosure is less than a first temperature, the positioning mechanism places the at least one cooling fan into a retracted position that does not inhibit a natural convective air flow across the heat sink. When the temperature inside the enclosure is greater than a second temperature, the positioning mechanism places the at least one cooling fan into an engaged position that produces a forced air flow across the heat sink. | 10-06-2011 |

20090174557 | COMPACT FLEXIBLE HIGH GAIN ANTENNA FOR HANDHELD RFID READER - A compact flexible high gain antenna is disclosed which includes a co-planar array of at least three substantially parallel main conducting antenna elements, a reflector, a driven element, and a director. Each of these elements may be terminated on the ends by a stub element, and the reflector and the director may include an intermediate meander element. Stub elements capacitively load the antenna, while meander elements inductively load the antenna, and the loading affects the resonant frequency of the antenna. The conducting antenna elements may be affixed to a flexible dielectric substrate and may be bent or curved into different compact shapes, suitable for fitting manufacturing form factors for a handheld RFID reader. The antenna has a high directional gain which results in a longer operating range. | 07-09-2009 |

20080203372 | LIFT ARM ASSEMBLY WITH INTEGRATED CYLINDER STOP - A hydraulic lift arm assembly includes a lift arm, a lift cylinder raising and lowering the lift arm, a lift arm stop, and a stowing mechanism. The stowing mechanism automatically retains the lift arm stop in a stowed position in response to the lift arm stop moving into the stowed position. The lift arm stop is movable into a locked position in which the stop resists substantial actuation of the lift cylinder from an extended condition, and thereby resists substantial lowering of the lift arm from a raised position. The lift arm stop may include a slot and pin arrangement to permit linear and pivotal movement of the stop with respect to the lift arm. The linear movement may provide clearance for a tongue on the stop to pivot past a portion of the lift cylinder as the stop is moved into the locked position. | 08-28-2008 |
