Embodiment Construction

[0068] refer to figure 1 , a waveguide assembly according to an embodiment of the invention is shown generally with reference numeral 2 . The waveguide assembly 2 comprises a waveguide adapter assembly generally indicated by the reference numeral 4 and a waveguide 6 of known construction. The waveguide adapter assembly 4 includes a flange assembly 8 and an adapter 10 .

[0069] The flange assembly 8 has a first end 12 for receiving the waveguide 6 and a second end 14 for connecting to equipment. The flange assembly 8 is made of molded plastic material, in particular nylon.

[0070] The flange assembly 8 includes a flange body 16 having a generally rectangular bore 18 extending longitudinally therethrough. A generally rectangular flange 20 is provided at the second end 14 of the flange assembly. The flange 20 is provided with holes 22 therethrough for receiving bolts (not shown for clarity) for connecting the flange 20 to equipment.

[0071] A cylindrical ring 24 projects ...

Abstract

A waveguide adapter assembly for coupling a waveguide to an apparatus is provided, the assembly comprising a waveguide adapter having an adapter body, the adapter body having a first end and a second end, the adapter body further having a cavity therein, the cavity having a first opening in the first end for receiving an end portion of a waveguide and a second opening in the second end for communicating with a corresponding opening in the apparatus, the second end having a mating face around the second opening for mating with a corresponding surface of the apparatus; and a flange assembly having a first end, and a second end for connecting to the apparatus, the flange assembly having a bore therethrough for receiving the waveguide adaptor. In a further arrangement, the adapter assembly comprises an adapter body for receiving an end portion of a waveguide and for connecting to the apparatus; and means for biasing the adapter body into contact with a mating surface of the apparatus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a waveguide assembly. The present invention particularly relates to a waveguide adapter assembly for mating a waveguide with an instrument or device and for mating a waveguide with a waveguide assembly. The invention also relates to a method for connecting a waveguide to a desired interface, eg a flange. Background technique [0002] Waveguides are commonly used to transport electromagnetic wave energy from one location to another and are known in the art. A common use of waveguides is to carry electromagnetic signals between an antenna and a transmitting or receiving device. More generally, waveguides are used to connect the transmitting and receiving devices together. The present invention relates to waveguide assemblies and waveguide adapter assemblies for connecting waveguides to such devices. It should be understood that there are numerous other uses of waveguides that are within the scope of the pres...
