Title: Flat cable and modulator rotary anvil to make same
IPC: B29C65/00
Filed: 2000-11-29
Abstract: A modular rotary anvil for an ultrasonic welding machine for producing flat cable. The anvil comprises interchangable knurled 160, protrusion 162 or cutting (172 Fig. 9b) inserts, bracket inserts 164, 166 and end segments 168, 170 allowing anvil assembly according to cable configuration desired. The cable (Fig. 7) comprises upper (120) and lower (130) insulation sandwiching intermediate parallel conductors (140) and joined by parallel welded seams between adjacent conductors (150) having a textured, e.g. knurled, surface and smooth or less rough seams (115) at the cable edge. Edge seams may comprise a textured zone adjacent a conductor and a smooth zone adjacent the edge. Texturing reduces contact area when the cable contacts itself, reducing friction and torque and the smooth edge reduces noise when used in an airbag to steering wheel clockspring.

Title: Wall coupling
IPC: E05B65/08
Filed: 1988-07-29
Abstract: A wall coupling restrains adjacent walls 2 and 3 from displacement over each other. The two walls have co-incident apertures 12 and 16. A flexible moulded plastics retaining strip 5 is carried by the wall 2 on its side remote from the wall 3. The strip 5 overlies the aperture 12 and has an end 8 which is secured relative to the wall 2 and an end 7 which is slidable along tracks on the wall 2 in a direction towards and from the end 8. A mid-length region 6 of the strip 5 between its ends 7 and 8 has integral hinges 13 to 15 so that during displacement of the strip end 7 towards the end 8, the region 6 doubles to project through the apertures 12 and 16 and thereby couple the walls 2 and 3 to restrain them from relative displacement.   Stop/catch means can be provided to temporarily retain the strip end 7 in a position where the mid-length region 6 of the strip is in either a folded or an unfolded condition. The invention is suitable for coupling a container lid which carries the retaining strip 5 to a wall of a container body.

Title: Reading and decoding recorded data
IPC: G11B20/14
Filed: 1989-02-15
Abstract: In a method an apparatus for decoding data recorded on magnetic storage medium such as a "swipe card" to yield decoded data values, a magnetoresistive sensor is used to read the data as a pulse stream from the medium and to measure the widths of the received pulses. The data is preferably stored in the medium by the technique of two-frequency phase coherent recording (F2F). By comparing the widths of pulses to be decoded with the widths of previously read pulses to which data values have already been allocated circuitry for derivin a clock signal from a self-clocking recorded signal can be dispensed with. Pulse widths may be measured by monitoring the output of counters (20) incremented by a fast clock for the duration of each pulse, and the pulse widths are compared by comparing counter outputs stored in a memory (28) using a microprocessor (26). To allow data to be read from the recording medium at a wide range of pulse repetition rates without excessively increasing counter capacity, thecounters (20) may be clocked at a variable rate dependent on the repetition rate of the received pulses.

Title: Inhibitor arrangement and inhibitor therefor
IPC: F16H63/20
Filed: 1993-06-03
Abstract: A reverse gear selection inhibitor arrangement for a motor vehicle gearbox comprises a selector finger and a reverse gear selection inhibitor comprising a cam-plate 41 mounted for example on the base 19 of a gearlever housing for pivotal movement in two opposite directions. The pivotal axis of the cam-plate 41 is off-set from the principal longitudinal axis of the selector finger in the central neutral position by a linear distance. A cam shoulder 46 on the cam-plate 41 is positioned at a distance from the pivotal axis greater than said linear distance. The cam-plate 41 is sprung biassed towards an at-rest position. The selector finger in travelling from a forward gear position v to a reverse gear position contacts one face 47 of the shoulder 46 causing pivotal movement of the cam-plate 41 but such movement is stopped when faces 22 and 21 respectively on the cam-plate 41 and base 19 of the housing 14 abut one another thereby preventing the reverse gear position R being reached directly from the forward v position and stopping the selector portion 8 at the selection neutral position. During pivotal movement, the cam-plate does not cut the selector finger axis. <IMAGE>
