Colorado Inventor Develops Antenna Device Formation Method

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 12 -- Thomas Aisenbrey of Littleton, Colo., has developed a method to form an antenna device.

According to the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Omni-directional antenna devices are formed of a conductive loaded resin-based material. The conductive loaded resin-based material comprises micron conductive powder(s), conductive fiber(s), or a combination of conductive powder and conductive fibers in a base resin host. The percentage by weight of the conductive powder(s), conductive fiber(s), or a combination thereof is between about 20% and 50% of the weight of the conductive loaded resin-based material."

An abstract of the invention, released by the Patent Office, said: "The micron conductive powders are formed from non-metals, such as carbon, graphite, that may also be metallic plated, or the like, or from metals such as stainless steel, nickel, copper, silver, that may also be metallic plated, or the like, or from a combination of non-metal, plated, or in combination with, metal powders. The micron conductor fibers preferably are of nickel plated carbon fiber, stainless steel fiber, copper fiber, silver fiber, or the like."

The inventor was issued U.S. Patent No. 7,317,420 on Jan. 8.

The patent has been assigned to Integral Technologies Inc., Bellingham, Wash.

The original application was filed on July 28, 2004, and is available at: http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=7,317,420.PN.&OS=PN/7,317,420&RS=PN/7,317,420.
