1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates in general to variable capacitors, and specifically relates to a variable air trimmer capacitor, including a pair of concentric ring electrodes which are movable axially with respect to each other so as to provide a variable overlap of surface areas between the electrodes, thereby varying the capacitance of the capacitor.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Air dielectric trimmer capacitors are commonly used as components in ultra high frequency (UHF) circuits to provide frequency tuning capability. The circuitry involved often is used in mobile equipment which is subjected to thermal stress, vibration, and acceleration which collectively tend to cause the orientation of the capacitor plates to change, thereby altering the capacitance of the device and consequently the frequency to which the circuit is tuned.
A conventional solution to the problems encountered by shock, vibration and temperature is to construct a variable capacitor with a helical threaded engagement between a rotor which contains the movable electrode and an assembly housing which supports the stationary electrode, whereby the rotor is rotated with respect to the stator to vary the overlap of the electrodes. The movable electrode makes electrical contact with the circuit through the rotor, the threads between the rotor and the housing, and the assembly housing, which has an external connection with the circuit. Since helical threads are notoriously poor electrical contacts, it has been normal practice to distort the threads of the rotor in such a manner so as to produce an engagement mismatch in the threads between the rotor and the housing to improve conductivity for the high frequency signal. The thread distortion also helps increase the torque between the rotor and housing so as to minimize frequency drift due to vibrationally-induced migration of the rotor.
Components used in UHF applications, due to the extremely high frequencies involved, are extremely sensitive to current path geometry. Consequently, threads distorted in conventional devices provide a current path which is variable depending upon the position of the thread distortion with respect to the rotor housing external connection. When the capacitor is adjusted to provide minimum capacitance (maximum separation between electrodes), the thread distortion which provides the current path is often located a distance away from the external connection or the rotor housing. In consequence the current path changes dramatically with tuning and thereby changes self inductance, the Q factor, and the self resonant frequency. This provides an additional complication for circuit designers who must treat the variable capacitor as a variable impedance device rather than as a variable capacitor.
The distorted threads of a conventional helical thread connection between a rotor and its housing also provide problems in addition to variable current paths. While distorted thread produces a temporarily improved contact, the device wears at an abnormal rate due to increased friction between the threads. This wear, which is accelerated with repeated tuning, results in a progressively deteriorating electrical contact and a progressively looser rotor fit which is increasingly prone to vibrational migration.
Variable capacitors have a characteristic called "range," which is defined as the specified capacitance over which a capacitive device will tune. For example, a variable capacitor might have a range of 0.8 to 10 picofarads (pF). For such a device, the base or "pedestal" is 0.8 pF and the variable capacitance is 9.2 pF. Circuit designers often are required to employ an external base or "pedestal" capacitor in a circuit in conjunction with variable capacitors so as to obtain the desired basic capacitance for circuit operation together with adjustment capability. While conventional air trimmer capacitors all possess a certain amount of basic capacitance, this capacitance generally is fixed by the geometry of the device, which typically cannot be altered so as to change the basic capacitance. The circuit designer usually selects an external capacitor of appropriate capacitance and provides a parallel circuit connection between the external capacitor and the variable capacitor in order to achieve his design goals. This invariably requires additional components and consequently contributes to increased design and manufacturing costs.
Briefly described, the present invention comprises a variable air trimmer capacitor which includes coaxial concentric interleaving shells as electrodes, with one stationary electrode and at least one movable electrode, with the movable electrode adapted to be moved axially with respect to the stationary electrode so as to vary the capacitance. A suitable dielectric separates the movable electrode from the stationary electrode. A cylindrical housing or stator is provided which contains the stationary electrode at one end and receives the movable electrode at the opposite end.
The movable electrode comprises a rotor having coaxial concentric cylindrical shells at one end and having a thread defined upon the outer surface at the other end. A screwdriver slot is provided in the rotor opposite the electrode for turning the rotor. The threaded portion engages a helical coil spring which is confined in a housing attached to the stator, each turn of the spring being axially offset or eccentric from its neighboring turn. The screwdriver slot of the rotor is accessible through the coil spring and rotor housing. Rotation of the rotor moves it axially through the coil spring within the rotor housing, thereby moving the movable electrode with respect to the fixed electrode. As the threads of the rotor engage the coil spring, the eccentric turns of the spring engaged by the threads are forced toward relative concentricity because the minor diameter of the rotor threads is greater than the quiescent diameter of the coil spring. Therefore, the spring becomes tightly gripped about the threads where the spring contacts the rotor. Also, when the threads of the rotor rotate beyond some of the coils of the spring, these coils move onto the base of the electrode of the rotor which is larger in diameter than the coil spring in its relaxed condition. Thus, these threads also make positive contact with the base portion of the electrode.
The helical coil spring and rotor are confined within the coaxial rotor housing on the end of the capacitor opposite the stationary electrode. The outside diameter of the coil spring, when in its relaxed state, is slightly larger than the inside diameter of the rotor housing, so that the eccentric coils of the spring normally are biased into contact with the inside surface of the rotor housing. Consequently, there is electrical contact between the coil spring and the rotor housing along the entire length of the rotor housing. Therefore, the current path is independent of rotor position within the housing, since electrical contact is made along the entire length of the rotor housing, as opposed to a single point of contact at a threaded distortion in conventional capacitors.
The present invention contains the stationary electrode in a stator separated from the rotor housing by an annular insulating member or washer. The annular insulating member in the present invention comprises an annular alumina washer which has well-known dielectric properties. This configuration provides a minimal pedestal capacitance for the device. The washer can alternatively be made an assembly with a deliberately chosen capacitive arrangement having a higher pedestal capacitance so as to vary the range of the capacitor. Moreover, the composition of the washer can be chosen with a particular temperature coefficient to provide desirable drift characteristics. The selectability of pedestal washer capacitance and composition at the time of assembly of the variable air trimmer capacitor of the present invention provides an almost infinitely modifiable assembly having great flexibility and potential for customization.
An environmental seal between the rotor housing and the stator is provided by an annular rubber washer which is confined within an annular recess formed in the rotor housing. The annular recess in the rotor housing is fabricated with a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the rubber washer so that a compressive force is maintained upon the rubber washer. The interior diameter of the rubber washer circumferentially surrounds the rotor, which extends from the rotor housing through the rubber washer into the stator which contains the stationary electrode. The compression of the rubber washer by the confinement of the annular recess in the rotor housing provides simultaneously a torque against rotation of the rotor and a seal between the environmentally exposed end of the rotor having the screwdriver slot and the electrode end of the rotor.
Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a coaxial variable air trimmer capacitor which provides a UHF current path independent of the position of the movable electrode.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a coaxial variable air trimmer capacitor whose anti-rotational torque does not vary as a function of the wear of rotor housing threads.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a coaxial variable air trimmer capacitor whose electrical contact between the movable electrodes does not deteriorate as a function of the wear of rotor housing threads.
It is a further object of the invention is to provide a variable air trimmer capacitor which is inexpensive to construct, which is durable and which is not likely to change its setting when encountering vibrations, temperature changes and other conditions of use.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a coaxial variable air trimmer capacitor which provides superior electrical contact between the movable electrode and the electrode housing which contains the terminal connection to the electrical circuit in which the capacitor is used.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a coaxial variable air trimmer capacitor which has selectable pedestal washer capacitance and composition which can be chosen at the time of assembly.
Other objects, features and advantages of this invention will become apparent upon reading the following specification and upon reviewing the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of the variable air trimmer capacitor made in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view showing the movable electrode displaced with respect to the stationary electrode.
FIG. 3 is a transverse cross-sectional view taken along line 3--3 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a transverse cross-sectional view taken along the line 4--4 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 5 is a transverse cross-sectional view taken along the line 5--5 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 6 is a partial longitudinal cross-sectional view of the movable electrode rotor of the present invention.
Referring now in more detail to the drawings, in which like numerals indicate like parts throughout the several views, FIG. 1 shows a coaxial variable air trimmer capacitor 9 constructed in accordance with the present invention and which comprises a housing 10 which is formed from a stator 12 and bushing 30. Cylindrical stator 12 has a cylindrical recess 13 having a base or end wall 16 and an open end 17. The surfaces of cylindrical recess 13 may serve either as the stationary electrode of the capacitor of the present invention or as a housing for a separate stationary electrode. In the preferred embodiment, the stator 12 is fabricated from a unitary piece of electrically conductive material suitable for comprising the electrode of a capacitor, but the stator could also be fabricated from nonconductive material so as to contain a separate capacitor electrode. The stator has a turret 14 adjacent end wall 16 and a stator lead 15, either of which can be used to connect the stator electrically to a circuit.
Within the cylindrical recess 13 of stator 12 is annular shell 20 which is concentric with cylindrical recess 13 and which extends from end wall 16 toward the open end 17 of the cylindrical recess and which has a diameter smaller than the diameter of recess 13. Annular shell 20 defines a centrally located cylindrical receptacle 21 within annular shell 20 and receptacle 21 is concentric with cylindrical recess 13. The surfaces of cylindrical recess 13, annular shell 20 and cylindrical receptacle 21 form the stationary electrode of the air trimmer capacitor of the preferred embodiment.
At the other end of housing 10 a cylindrical bushing 30 is mounted to stator 12 coaxially over the recess 13, shell 20, and receptacle 21, and is electrically isolated from the stator. The mounting of the bushing to the stator is discussed in greater detail below. The bushing 30 provides the means for attachment of the capacitor of the present invention to a circuit board, and includes an annular shoulder 31 which seats upon the circuit board 34 to which the device in FIG. 1 is attached. Along the outer surface of the bushing are threads 32 adapted to receive a threaded nut 33 so as to grasp the circuit board 34 between the shoulder 31 and the threaded nut 33. A bushing lead 35 is provided at the edge of the shoulder for electrical connection to the circuit in which the device is employed.
The bushing 30 further comprises an internal cylindrical surface or barrel 40 which has an open end 50 opposite the end of attachment to the stator 12. The barrel houses a tightly wound coil spring 41 having turns with eccentric centers. The spring is confined within the barrel by means of a swaged annular lip 42. Each turn of the spring has eccentric or offset centers so that a typical turn 43 is axially offset from the immediately adjacent neighboring turns 44, 45.
An open end 50 is provided in bushing 30 so as to provide access to the components within the barrel 40. At the end of the barrel opposite the open end 50 and swaged lip 42 is an annular shoulder 51 which acts as a stop and prevents further axial movement of components contained within the barrel, which are discussed next.
Rotatably confined within the barrel 40 of bushing 30 is a rotor 60, which has an annular shell 61 having a diameter smaller than the diameter of cylindrical recess 13 of stator 12 but a diameter larger than the diameter of annular shell 20 of the stator. Rotor shell 61 is fabricated of conductive material similar to the stator shell 20, and annular air spaces 62, 63 separate the rotor shell from the walls of recess 13 and from stator shell 20, and serve as the air dielectric of the capacitor. The rotor shell 61 functions as the movable rotor electrode.
The rotor 60 also has a cylindrical rod 70 having a diameter smaller than cylindrical receptacle 21 of the shell 20. Separating the cylindrical rod 70 of the rotor and the cylindrical receptacle 21 of the stator shell 20 is a Teflon guide sleeve 71 which extends the length of cylindrical receptacle 21. The guide sleeve has a lip 72 which protrudes beyond the diameter of stator shell 20 at the stator open end 17 so as to both guide rotor shell 61 and rod 70 along the walls of stator receptacle 21 and recess 13 and to insulate them electrically. Those having skill in the art will recognize that Teflon sleeve 71 also acts as a dielectric between the surfaces it separates and the surface of rod 70 also functions as a part of the rotor electrode.
Rotor 60, at the end opposite to its electrode shell 61, is formed with helical threads 80 adapted to receive the turns of coil spring 41. A slot 81 is defined within the end surface of rotor 60 so that a screwdriver may be inserted along the length of barrel 40 coaxially with spring 41 and engaged with the slot so as to turn the rotor. The threads 80 are molded upon the rotor with a minor diameter slightly greater than the quiescent diameter of the turns of spring 41, so that when the rotor is rotated, the threads firmly engage the coils of the spring and force them radially outwardly.
The radially outward force imparted to the turns of the coil spring 41 by the minor diameter of the rotor threads 80 forces the engaged turn of the spring toward concentricity relative to its adjacent turns, which normally would be eccentric due to the wind of the spring. It will thus be appreciated that the contact between the coils of the spring 41 and the threads 80 of the rotor 60 provides frictional resistance to the rotation of the rotor within the barrel and simultaneously provides electrical contact between the rotor and the spring. The spring, being tightly wound and confined within the barrel and biased outwardly into engagement with the inside surface of the barrel, exerts a constantly outward force against the walls of the barrel, thereby providing a current path at every point where the spring contacts the walls of the barrel. There is thus provided resistance to undesirable rotation and an improved electrical current path characteristic of the present invention.
Separating the stator 12 from the bushing 30 is an annular ceramic pedestal washer assembly 90, comprising in the preferred embodiment an annular alumina washer. It will be appreciated that the presence of alumina washer 90 provides a dielectric separation of the stator and bushing and results in a configuration having minimum shunt capacitance between stator and bushing. It will also be appreciated that this shunt capacitance may be increased if desired by changing the composition of the washer to a material having a higher dielectric constant, or by metallizing the ceramic of the washer. The stator 12, washer assembly 90, and bushing 30 are adhered by epoxy beads 100, 101.
An internal annular recess 52 is also provided on bushing 30 at the end opposite the open end 50. An annular rubber washer 53 having an outside diameter slightly larger than recess 52 and having an inside diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of rotor 60 is frictionally confined within the recess 52 adjacent the washer assembly 90. Having diameters slightly mismatched to the recess and rotor results in compression of the rubber washer when the rotor is placed through the barrel 40 into engagement with recess 13 and receptacle 21 of the stator 12. The compression of the rubber washer provides rotor anti-rotational torque additional to that provided by the threads and spring, and an environmental seal of the capacitive arrangement formed by the interposition of the rotor and stator surfaces.
FIG. 2 is another representation of the preferred embodiment of the present invention showing the rotor 60 displaced with respect to the stator 12. Because of the threaded engagement with spring 41, the rotor, guided by the coil spring, axially withdraws from the stator when the rotor is turned. As thus turned, annular rotor shell 61 and its rod 70 are displaced further outwardly from within stator recess 13, receptacle 21, and stator shell 20 so that the capacitance of the device is decreased because of the decreased surface area overlap between the stator and rotor.
FIG. 3 is a transverse cross-sectional view taken along line 3--3 of FIG. 1. Cylindrical stator 12 with cylindrical recess 13, cylindrical shell 20, and cylindrical receptacle 21 form the surfaces of the stationary electrode in the preferred embodiment. These surfaces are separated by air spaces 62, 63 from the surfaces of cylindrical rotor shell 61 and rod 70, which provide the movable electrode. Teflon guide sleeve 71 separates rod 70 from stator shell 20.
FIG. 4 is a transverse cross-sectional view taken along the line 4--4 of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 and is a view of bushing 30 at the point of assembly with the annular pedestal washer. The annular recess 52 is shown containing annular rubber washer 53 within the confines of its outer diameter. The inside diameter of the rubber washer circumferentially surrounds the outer diameter of cylindrical shell 61 of the rotor. Rotor rod 70 is concentrically contained within the shell 61. Air space 63 separates the rod from the shell, and is of a diameter sufficient to receive the shell of stator (not shown) when the rotor is advanced along the spring into capacitive engagement with the stator.
FIG. 5 is a transverse cross-sectional view taken along the line 5--5 of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1. Bushing 30 is seen to have threads 32 defined along the outer surface so as to receive the threaded nut (not shown) which holds the entire assembly to a mounting surface. Rectangular slot 81 of the rotor 60 is used to turn the rotor so as to vary the capacitance of the device. The eccentricity of spring 41 may be seen with a typical turn 43 being axially offset from a neighboring turn 44.
FIG. 6 is a partial longitudinal sectional view of cylindrical rotor 60. The upper part of the rotor is cut away to show cylindrical rod 70 and cylindrical shell 61 with air space 63 defined therebetween so as to receive the sleeve of the stator (not shown). At the end of the rotor opposite the capacitive elements are the threads 80 defined upon the outer surface of the rotor which receive the coils of the coil spring, and the screwdriver slot 81 used to adjust the capacitance.
It is to be understood that while a preferred embodiment with an alternative configuration has been illustrated and described herein, other alternative configurations or modifications may occur to those skilled in the art and what is intended to be covered herein is not only the illustrated form of the invention, but also any and all modified forms thereof as may come within the scope and spirit of this invention as hereinbefore described and defined in the following claims.

The sheer volume of cyanobacteria in the oceans makes them major players in the global carbon cycle and responsible for as much as a third of the carbon fixed. These photosynthetic microbes, which include Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus, are tiny – as many as 100 million cells can be found in a single liter of water – and yet they are not the most abundant entities on Earth. That distinction goes to viruses, up to 100 million of which can be found per 1 mL of seawater. However, researchers know very little about the viruses in the water, other than that there are three kinds of viruses, and that they are capable of drastically decreasing cyanobacterial populations, affecting the global regulation of biogeochemical cycles.

I purchased from them, had a small problem once delivered, and could not make contact with them. Tried several times then gave up.
Well that's not good. Thanks for that feedback MrWhleDr I'll keep searching then.
I can't say much about that company because i've never used them, but could you find it cheaper...probably a tiny bit yet. Overall I think its a fair price for everything you get.

MassResistance Says America's 'Worldwide Homosexual Terror Group' will bring about 'Brutal Oppression'
Recently, Brian Camenker has been in the news over his involvement in robocalls through a new group called "Jews and Christians Together" that urge Republicans to "vote for social sanity and Rick Santorum, NOT for homosexuality and Mitt Romney." But Camenker's principal organization, MassResistance, is still operating and releasing new, rabidly anti-gay "reports" like their memo on the State Department's new push to stop anti-LGBT violence and discrimination abroad.
MassResistance dubs the initiative a "worldwide homosexual terror group" and maintains it "will lead to increasingly brutal oppression against people with traditional values both in America and around the world" along with "sleazy and quasi-legal destabilizing and harassing activities in foreign countries." The memo also lambastes a transgender employee at the U.S. Embassy in Romania who commended changes that made the State Department a more open environment for transgender staffers.
The Obama administration has announced that it is taking the unbelievable role of pushing the homosexual agenda around the world and punishing countries that don't comply.
Back in July, MassResistance reported how the Pakistanis angrily denounced the US Embassy's open homosexual parties as "cultural terrorism." Well, that was just the beginning.
Now, foreign countries which seek to protect their citizens against homosexuality and the homosexual movement will be actively confronted by America's State Department, foreign service, and other federal departments, according to a Presidential Memorandum released by the Obama Administration announced on Dec. 6.
Unless countries around the world subordinate their own social and religious values to U.S. demands that they embrace homosexuality and the homosexual movement, they can expect interference from the US government in their internal affairs and punishment -- using foreign aid and in international commerce, trade, banking, travel restrictions, and the like.
Mirroring the homosexual lobby's (and the Left's) traditional tactics, Obama is characterizing this as a "civil rights" quest for homosexuality and transgenderism.
In the memo, Obama declares that America will be targeting foreign countries having laws or customs which "criminalize LGBT status," don't allow LGBT pride celebrations, or allow other "discrimination" against homosexual or transgender behavior. Obama also repeats the homosexual lobby's mantra that there is widespread violence and murder against "men, women, and children for their perceived sexual orientation" causing him to act, but he does not give any specifics.
Take another look the list of federal agencies involved, and the vehemence of the Obama administration on this. Make no mistake about it. This will lead to increasingly brutal oppression against people with traditional values both in America and around the world.
Starting a worldwide homosexual terror group?
As she said, this $3 million is "to start the fund."
Look for enormous funding to come from various far-left government and private sources. This is quite frightening, because these radical groups can be used to perpetrate all kinds of sleazy and quasi-legal destabilizing and harassing activities in foreign countries that US government agencies can't do so easily.

October 2014 News Bloopers Are Better Than Any Halloween Candy
While everyone spent the last month gearing up for Halloween, TV news did its duty by continuing to roll out hilarious bloopers.
While everyone spent the last month gearing up for Halloween, TV news did its duty by continuing to roll out hilarious bloopers.
We've known for some time now that 'The Colbert Report' would say goodbye as Stephen moves on to bigger and better things at CBS' 'Late Show,' but we at last have a departure point. Comedy Central has officially scheduled the last 'Colbert Report' for mid December, but when can we run screaming at the gates to say goodbye?
Swifties, it looks Taylor Swift's next single has finally been announced!
So here's some pretty exciting news on top of the already exciting news that Wonder Woman is getting her very own solo film from DC and Warner Bros. A new report reveals plans that Wonder Woman's first solo outing will be set in a time period before the 'Justice League' film -- actually, it'll be set long, long before then. Not only that, but there are ultimately plans for three 'Wonder Woman' films. Three! Your move, Marvel.
Congraulations to Kim Heidger. We are sending Kim and a guest to Napa Valley for Live in the Vineyard 2014!
You don't need to sway trick-or-treaters to go out in search of candy. But, you may need to sway them to your home for the best candy.
Finding the perfect Halloween costume isn't easy, but imagine how difficult it must be when you're a child confined to a wheelchair.
The 'Resident Evil' video game franchise is one of the most successful of all-time, selling over 61 million units since the first game made its debut on the Sony PlayStation in 1996. The game series was so popular it spawned an equally lucrative film franchise, which includes five movies (and a sixth on the way) that have grossed almost $1 billion worldwide. But, would all that have happened if Gwyneth Paltrow had starred in the movie? Because that almost happened. Find out more about that, and other scary scoop from the 'Resident Evil' movies is this week's horrifying You Think You Know Movies? episode!
Bill Michaels, a radio personality in Davenport, Iowa, decided to conduct a little Halloween experiment. Instead of answering his front door for each and every trick-or-treater, he set an 'honor bowl' full of candy on his front porch with a sign that read: "Take One, Please."
If you're one of those people who gets super into Halloween, then you might want to consult WalletHub's new rankings of the best and worst cities for trick-or-treating and other Halloween festivities and plan your move accordingly. Analyzing such data as crime rates, weather, walk-ability and the number of can

A single blade proximity probe uses fiber optics to direct a laser output at turbine engine blades and to return the reflected light to an image intensifier probe which provides an output indicative of blade clearance. To enable the system to measure the clearance of a single blade tip on an operating turbine, a second light beam having a different wavelength from the laser output is directed over the laser light path to count the blades and to strobe the laser on the desired blade.
1. A single blade proximity system comprised of an operative engine rotor having an outer rim, a blade attached to said outer rim, said blade having a tip, an extending member attached to said rotor and rotating therewith to provide a voltage therefrom, an electrical proximity probe positioned to be activated by said rotating extension at each rotation to provide an indexing signal therefrom, a laser providing an output light of frequency λ1, a modulator passing the output light of frequency λ1, said modulator also receiving an input signal for the control thereof, a source of light of frequency λ2, a first beam splitter receiving the modulated light of frequency λ1, and said light of frequency λ2 for mixing, an optical input bundle receiving the mixed lights of frequencies λ1 and λ2, an optical probe receiving the mixed lights of frequencies λ1 and λ2 from said optical input bundle for direction to said blade tip, an output optical bundle receiving reflected mixed lights of frequencies λ1 and λ2 from said blade tip, a second beam splitter receiving the output from said output optical bundle, said second beam splitter being selective to subtract the reflected mixed light of frequency λ2 from λ1 an image intensifier tube, a lens operating as an input to said image intensifier tube, the light of frequency λ1 from said second beam splitter entering said lens for passage through said image intensifier tube to provide an output therefrom, an oscilloscope having a display face thereupon, a diode array receiving the output from said image intensifier and providing an electrical representative signal for display on the face of said oscilloscope, a photo detector receiving from said second beam splitter a light of frequency λ2, and an electronic sequencer receiving two inputs, one of said inputs being said index signal and the second the output from said photo detector, the output of said electronic sequencer serving as said input to said modulator for triggering purposes to allow the output light of frequency λ1 from said laser passage through said modulator.
2. A single blade proximity system as described in claim 1 wherein said input optical bundle, said probe and said output optical bundle consist of optical fiber.
The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalty thereon.
In the prior art, lasers have been used to measure average blade tip clearances. However, the measurement of single blade clearances on rotating hardware has not been measured in as precise a fashion as in the present invention. There is provided one improved method and apparatus for measuring a single blade clearance while there is rotation taking place.
A single blade proximity probe is provided. Laser light of frequency λ1 is passed through a laser modulator. A light of frequency λ2 is mixed with the modulated laser light. The mixed signal is passed through a probe which then directs the mixed light signals toward the rotating blade of one engine for reflection back to the probe. Before detection of the reflected signals, the signal of frequency λ2 is subtracted from the signal of frequency λ1. The signal λ1 enters the detector system and the signal of λ2 is monitored by a photo detector. The output of the photo detector is fed into an electronic sequencer. An indexing signal from the engine triggers the sequencer. The λ2 signal is reflected from the blade tip, goes into the photo detector and enables counting the number of blades passing the probe. The sequencer triggers the modulator to allow passage of the λ1 signal through the modulator while the subject blade tip is in view of the measuring probe. The indexed signal passes through the system and monitors the blade tip clearance of the subject blade. The modulator is shut off immediately after blade passage.
In the single FIGURE, there is shown a block diagram of the preferred embodiment of the single blade proximity probe.
Now referring in detail to the single FIGURE, there is shown rotor 1 having blade 2. Rotor 1 is part of an associated engine. Rotor 1 also includes member 3 with extrusion 3a as a part thereof. There is positioned an electrical proximity probe 4 such as an eddy current, magnetic flux, or electrical closure probe such that at every single rotation of rotor 1 extension 3a will activate proximity probe 4 resulting in a momentary N1 indexing signal. It is noted that additional blades may be attached to rotor 1 in the same manner as blade 2.
In operation of the system of the single FIGURE, laser 5 provides a light of frequency λ1 which is passed through laser modulator 6. Light source 8 provides a light of frequency λ2. Beam splitter 7 is used to mix the modulated signal (light) of frequency λ1 with the signal (light) of frequency λ2. The beam splitter may be coated to enhance reflection of signal λ2 and transmission of λ1 to reduce signal losses in the system. The mixed signals enter input bundle 9 and then probe 10 which directs the mixed signals toward rotating blade 2 or toward a multiplicity of rotating blades. The mixed signals are reflected back to probe 10 and are directed to output coherent bundle 11. Input bundle 9, probe 10 and output bundle 11 may be made of optical fiber or a combination of optical fiber and lenses.
The mixed returned signal of frequency λ2 is subtracted from the mixed signal of frequency λ1 by the use of selector beam splitter 12 that transmits the signal of frequency λ1 but reflects the signal of frequency λ2. The beam splitter may be coated to enhance transmission of signal λ1 and reflection of signal λ2. The signal of frequency λ1 enters image intensifier tube 14 by way of lens 14a and is then directed into diode array 15 for transfer for display purposes on the face of oscilloscope 16. It should be noted that the electrical signal displayed on the oscilloscope may be recorded on magnetic tape by use of a tape deck. The signal of frequency λ2 from beam splitter 12 is passed through photo detector 17 for monitoring.
The output from photo detector 17 is fed into electronic sequencer 18. The aforementioned N1 indexing signal from the engine triggers the sequencer. The signal of frequency λ2 reflected from the blade tip and passing through photo detector 17 enables counting the number of blades passing the probe. The sequencer triggers the modulator to allow passage of the signal of frequency λ1 through the modulator during the time in which the subject blade is in view of the probe. The λ1 index signal passes through the system and monitors the blade tip clearance. The modulator is shut off immediately after blade passage again determined by the photo detector output. The procedure is repeated for each engine revolution.

American Horror Story: Freak Show Recap: "Test of Strength"
Picking up right where the last episode left off, "Test of Strength" opens with Jimmy finding Bette and Dot in Dandy's house. Jimmy appeals to the twins to return to the freak show. He says that with Dandy, they're just "freaks to be gawked at"; Bette astutely points out that that's not at all different from life at the freak show.Read More

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
"If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth." (1 John 1:8 NLT)
Many of us wear masks of some sort. We don't want anyone to see the real us; we don't want anyone to see our faults. Often, we try to cover up our faults and mistakes in one of two ways:
You have to face your faults to be freed from them. Face it head on, and own it: "I did it. I've been arrogant in how I've treated people. I haven't been a good father or a good husband. I've been a poor leader." It's time you just said it.
Don't use the word but at the end of the confession. Don't say, "It's not a big deal." Don't try to tell people it's really a strength. Just admit it, and be free.
Talk About It
What would the freedom that comes with facing your faults allow you to do?
Rick Warren is the founding pastor of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif., one of America's largest and most influential churches. Rick is author of the New York Times bestseller "The Purpose Driven Life." His book, "The Purpose Driven Church," was named one of the 100 Christian books that changed the 20th century. He is also the founder of Pastors.com, a global Internet community for pastors.

Do you ever feel tired, drained or "beat-up" and just don't know why? That's because every day you're fighting an unseen spiritual war. You can't see it, but its effects are very real. In his 7 session Study Kit "The Invisible War: Winning the Battle of Temptation," Pastor Rick will teach you how to overcome the three predictable types of temptations that Satan uses to entice and defeat you: Passion, Possession, and Position.
Why is everything in life so hard? Why does doing the right thing often feel like a battle? In this new series, Pastor Rick shares insights from God's Word about the unseen spiritual forces working against us; the invisible war between good and evil. This series will help you win the battle within.
