MULTIPLE DIPOLE LINE TRAP SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17643897 titled 'MULTIPLE DIPOLE LINE TRAP SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure is about a dipole line trap system, a method for tuning its natural frequency, and a seismometer. One embodiment of the dipole line trap system includes a first axis unit with at least three cylindrical diametric magnets mounted in parallel around a first open region, and a first diamagnetic object in the first open region. The first axis unit may have a natural frequency of less than 1 Hz.

  • The dipole line trap system includes a first axis unit with cylindrical diametric magnets and a diamagnetic object.
  • The first axis unit may have a natural frequency of less than 1 Hz.
  • The dipole line trap system can be used in seismometers.

Potential Applications

  • Seismometers
  • Earthquake monitoring systems
  • Structural health monitoring systems

Problems Solved

  • Tuning the natural frequency of a dipole line trap system
  • Improving the sensitivity and accuracy of seismometers
  • Enhancing earthquake detection and monitoring capabilities

Benefits

  • Increased sensitivity and accuracy in detecting seismic activity
  • Improved performance of seismometers in various applications
  • Enhanced ability to monitor and analyze structural health


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure includes dipole line trap system, a method for tuning a natural frequency of a dipole line trap system, and seismometer. One embodiment of the dipole line trap system may comprise a first axis unit. The first axis unit may comprise a first group of at least three cylindrical diametric magnets mounted in parallel around a first open region, and a first diamagnetic object in the first open region. In some embodiments, the first axis unit may comprise four cylindrical diametric magnets mounted in parallel around the first open region. In some embodiments, the first axis unit may have a natural frequency of less than 1 Hz.
