Filed:

Feb 6, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/777985

Inventors:

Gary Hunt - Lake Forest CA, US

International Classification:

F42B008/00

US Classification:

102/444000

Abstract:

An inert practice round has an elongated, solid body of aluminum having an external outline with the contour and size of a live round of a predetermined caliber. In one embodiment, the round comprises a unitary, one-piece, cavityless body. In another embodiment the body has an axial cavity formed centrally in the base end thereof and receives a cushioning structure, which may be all-plastic, plastic with a headed rivet embedded therein or a stack of O-rings or a coil spring with a rivet inserted therethrough.

Gary D. Hunt - Lake Forest CA

International Classification:

G02B 2100
G02B 2300

US Classification:

359380

Abstract:

A microscope includes an objective lens and a pair of zoom lenses arranged in series along an optical path from the objective lens to a video camera, which converts the output of the second zoom lens to a video signal for display of a magnified first image on an associated monitor. A portion of the output from the objective lens is split to a second video camera which generates a second video signal to display a second image on the monitor, of a different magnification from the first image. The objective is fixed on a holder which can be removably mounted in a receptacle on the microscope housing and retained therein by a manually releasable latch. An optical binocular eyepiece assembly has a prism which is selectively movable into the optical path to intercept the output of the second zoom lens. Illuminating visible light is transmitted from a remote source into the optical path and through the objective lens to illuminate the object viewed. A polarizer/analyzer unit is provided.

International Classification:

G02B 2126
B23Q 308

US Classification:

350531

Abstract:

A chuck assembly is adapted to be mounted on the positioning assembly of a microscopic test device for effecting precise repeatable vertical movement of the object under test with negligible incidental movement of any other type. A triangular member fixed with respect to the positioning assembly is received in a circular recess in the upper surface of a housing. An annular projection on the bottom of the triangular member is disposed in an annular cavity in the housing, with a sealing gasket therebetween. The bottom of the cavity is coupled to an associated source of compressed air. A thin flat flexible metal disc overlies the triangular member and is fixed thereto centrally thereof, the periphery of the disc being fixedly clamped between the housing and a retaining ring. A top plate is secured to the housing. The housing, retaining ring and top plate form a unit which is vertically movable with respect to the fixed triangular member, being biased upwardly by compression springs between the housing and retaining ring and being driven downwardly by introduction of compressed air to the groove.
