    摘要: A fluid connection assembly, including a connector body, including a first end, a second end, a first through-bore, and a first radially outward facing surface including at least one aperture extending from the first radially outward facing surface to the first through-bore, and a retainer operatively arranged to be removably connected to the connector body, the retainer including a first section, a second section hingedly connected to the first section, a first radially inward facing surface, and at least one tab extending from the first radially inward facing surface, the at least one tab including a second radially inward facing surface, wherein, in a locked state the at least one tab extends through the at least one aperture and the first radially inward facing surface is arranged proximate the first radially outward facing surface.

    摘要: An imaging apparatus includes an in-coupling diffractive optic directs image-bearing light beams into a planar waveguide, an out-coupling diffractive optic directs the image-bearing light beams from the waveguide toward a viewer eyebox, and a turning diffractive optic directs the image-bearing light beams along the waveguide between the in-coupling and out-coupling diffractive optics. The grating vectors of the in-coupling and out-coupling diffractive optics differ in magnitude and orientation while the grating vectors of all three diffractive optics sum to substantially zero. The turning diffractive optic is further arranged to preserve a desired angular relationship of the propagating image bearing beams within the waveguide.

    摘要: An imaging apparatus for conveying a virtual image including a waveguide having first and second surfaces. An in-coupling diffractive optic and an out-coupling diffractive optic arranged along one of the first and second surfaces, wherein the in-coupling diffractive optic is operable to direct image-bearing light beams into the waveguide for propagation by total internal reflection, and wherein the out-coupling diffractive optic is operable to direct at least a portion of the image-bearing light beams from the waveguide through the second surface toward an eyebox. An at least partially transparent outer cover located adjacent to the first surface, and a circular polarizer arranged between the waveguide and the outer cover, wherein the circular polarizer is operable to circularly polarize at least a portion of image-bearing light beams transmitted through the first surface and to prevent at least a portion of image-bearing light beams transmitted through the first surface from reentering the waveguide as a result of reflection from the outer cover.

    摘要: An improved propeller system is disclosed, including at least one resilient component configured with a mounting arrangement of a propeller of the propeller system. The resilient component is made of a resilient material that allows the propeller to tilt about a tethering axis under conditions of differential lift force on blades of the propeller under an advancing condition and a retreating condition. The resilient component includes a pair of cutouts for locating inserts made of a rigid material and positioned with a longitudinal axis of the inserts oriented in radial direction. The orientation of the inserts results in a radially oriented line contact between the propeller and the inserts to ensure that tilting of the propeller is about longitudinal axis of the inserts, defining the tethering axis of the propeller system.

    摘要: A wearable display apparatus has a support that mounts the display apparatus against the head of a viewer; a ball joint that is fitted within the support and coupled to a clamp that extends from the support; a slide that is translatable within the clamp in a first direction and that holds a display module for forming the display image; and a display coupled to the display module and rotatable in a first arc about a vertical axis that extends in a second direction that is orthogonal to the first direction and further rotatable in a second arc about a horizontal axis that is substantially orthogonal to the vertical axis.
