Abstract: A reverse wedgelock device with multiple draw blocks disposed about a lead screw passing through the draw blocks, wherein the draw blocks may be compressed together and caused to displace about respective wedge surfaces upon tightening of the screw. Compression and displacement of the draw blocks can function to draw anchors associated with the draw blocks inward, which, when engaged with opposing objects, functions to draw the objects together.

Abstract: A winding assembly, such as a transformer or an inductor, includes a spring clip and a retaining clip for mechanically coupling the winding assembly to a printed circuit board (PCB) or a printed wiring board (PWB). The clips provide structural rigidity to the winding assembly, allowing the winding assembly to remain functional during high shock events. Further, the clips compress a thermal pad positioned beneath the winding assembly, providing sufficient heat transfer surface area for transferring heat away from the winding assembly.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a radiator assembly having a feed circuit with an air interface to a quadridge feed structure to excite an antenna, such as a stacked patch antenna. Embodiments of the assembly can provide enhanced bandwidth, scan angle performance, and coincident phase centers for dual-linear polarizations.

Abstract: The present disclosure sets forth a rigid, self-aligning radio frequency (“RF”) connector comprising a rigid body with a first connection end and a second connection end opposite the first connection end. The RF connector can also comprise a recess disposed on an outer surface of the rigid body between the first and second connection ends, and a collapsible connector support that can comprise a connection portion and a collapsible portion. The collapsible connector support can be disposed within and protrude from the recess while also being configured to collapse into the recess. The collapsible connector support can also be configured to interface with an interfacing surface to facilitate generation of a reaction force sufficient to support the RF connector in an offset position relative to the interfacing surface and to nominally align the RF connector with a device to be connected.

Abstract: A low profile, low loss, wide band, wide scan volume radome assembly is provided for an antenna. The radome assembly includes a fabric radome element disposable over the antenna, first radome securing elements securably embedded within the fabric radome element and second radome securing elements securably embedded within the antenna. The second radome securing elements are respectively engageable with the first radome securing elements to thereby secure the fabric radome element over the antenna.
