 Retractable helical antenna

Details
Inventors: Marino, Frank;
Assignee:
Primary Examiner: Hajec; Donald
Assistant Examiner: Phan; Tho G.
Attorney, Agent or Firm: Marino; Francis E.

A retractable antenna assembly having a helically coiled antenna, a bushing having a helically threaded hole fully therethrough which freely engages the helical coil, and a driver to cause helical motion to the antenna relative to the bushing, and thereby extend or retract the antenna.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION In view of the above, the invention hereby disclosed comprises a mechanism to facilitate the retraction and extension of a helically shaped antenna shaft by using the shaft helix itself and a mating helix within the guide bushing as a screwthread type interface which guides and/or limits the displacement of the shaft such that the shaft will be displaced helically as it is rotated about the axis of the helix, or as it is driven axially by a device which allows such rotation.
