A simulation inductance is formed by the inductance portion. | 07-05-2012 |
20120176274 | WIDE-BAND ANTENNA - A wide-band antenna mounted on a circuit board includes a ground plate, a radiating plate perpendicularly connected to two side edges of the circuit board, and a planar antenna element which includes a base plate, an extending plate, and a ground portion. One side of the base plate defines a gap with a first coupling portion being formed, and a slot adjacent to the gap with a first strip being formed therebetween. A second strip is extended perpendicularly from the first strip. The extending plate is extended outward from one end of the base plate. The ground portion is extended outward from the second strip and connected to the ground plate. The first coupling portion and the ground portion have an interspace to form a capacitive coupling therebetween. A groove is formed among the first and second strips and the ground portion to form a simulation inductance thereamong. | 07-12-2012 |
Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090007937 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR WASHING BIOLOGICAL MATERIAL - In a general aspect, an apparatus for washing biological material is provided which includes an outer sleeve, and an inner sleeve disposed within the outer sleeve. The outer sleeve has an open end for receiving the biological material, and an opposed closed end. The inner sleeve is detachably and slidably positioned within the outer sleeve, and includes a first port for receiving and dispensing washing liquid, a second port defining a liquid flow path between an interior of the inner sleeve and an interior of the outer sleeve, and a filter disposed in the second port. The filter allows passage of washing liquid but not passage of the biological material therethrough. A chamber, formed between the filter and the closed end of the outer sleeve, is configured to permit flow of washing liquid via the filter while retaining the biological material therein. | 01-08-2009 |
20090011506 | APPARATUS AND PROCESS FOR WASHING TISSUE AND/OR CELL - An apparatus for washing cells and/or tissue includes an outer sleeve, an inner assembly, and a filter. The outer sleeve includes a closed end and an open end. The inner assembly is axially movable in the outer sleeve. The filter is affixed to the inner assembly, wherein a chamber is formed by the filter, the outer sleeve, and the inner assembly. Furthermore, a process for washing cells and/or tissue comprising: (a) providing an apparatus as described above, wherein the cells and/or tissue and washing liquid are disposed in the chamber, and (b) axially moving the inner assembly to wash the cells and/or tissue. | 01-08-2009 |
