Title: Quick disconnect cable connector device with integral body and strain relief structure
Inventor: CORREA JUAN L
IPC: H01R13/56
Filed: 2000-06-21
Abstract: A quick disconnect cable connector device Includes an elongated body made of a rigid molded material and having opposite first and second ends, and a strain relief structure integrally connected to the first end of the body and made of the same molded material. The body can have a conical-shaped configuration tapering from the second to the first end. The body defines an interior chamber extending between end open at the first and second ends and receiving an end of a cable therethrough from the first to the second end such that the body provides an overmold encasing the end of the cable and supporting at the second end of the body a contact termination on the and of the cable. The strain relief structure includes a framework having an annular shape and forming a passage extending along a longitudinal axis of the framework and aligned with the first end of the body. The framework surrounds and receives through its passage a portion of the cable extending from the first end of the body. The framework has a configuration which distributes away from the cable portion at the first end of the body any bending forces Imposed on the cable. The framework has a plurality of windows defined therethrough and spaced apart from each other which provide bending flexibility to the strain relief structure sufficient to aid in the distribution of bending forces away from the cable portion at the first end of the body.

Title: Bouncing pet toy
Inventor: MARKHAM JOSEPH P
IPC: A01K11/00
Filed: 1999-03-08
Abstract: A pet toy (10) has an elongated hollow body extending along a longitudinal axis (12) with first and second spaced bulbous sections (14, 16), each having a side wall (19) of substantially constant cross section throughout. The first and second sections (14, 16) each include respective first (28) and second (30) openings defining respective first and second diameters. A center section (18) has an inner surface forming a center opening (32) of a third diameter which is less than at least one of the first and second diameters. The center section (18) interconnects the first and second bulbous sections (14, 16). A  plurality of longitudinally spaced annular ribs (24) extend around the periphery of the bulbous sections (14, 16) forming grooves (26) to facilitate an animal gripping the toy (10) with its teeth. At least one of the bulbous ends has an opening with a diameter greater than the diameter of the center section (18) so that a knot (36) of a pull rope (34) extending through the center of the pet toy will pass through the opening in the bulbous section but will not pass through the center section (18). Edible food treats (38) can be placed in the pet toy through the opening(s) (28, 30) in the respective bulbous sections (14, 16) and center section (18) which can be removed by the pet biting down on the pet toy and deforming the side wall (19). When the teeth of the animal deform an end of the pet toy, the ribs (24) deflect inwardly to clean the teeth and/or massage the gums. In a second embodiment, the pet toy has a hollow core of substantially constant cross section.

Title: Switch for optical signals
Inventor: SPAGNOLETTI ROBERT WILLIAM
IPC: H04Q3/52
Filed: 2000-09-21
Abstract: A cross-connect switch for switching optical signals, in particular, Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexed (DWDM) signals is disclosed. The switch includes a switching matrix for each of the predetermined wavelengths of the DWDM signals. The switching matrices include Micro-Electro-Mechanical (MEM) systems which have optically reflective elements, typically mirrors, arranged in rows and columns for switching an incoming optical signal travelling along a row of such elements to an output port aligned with a column of the elements. The switch has input demultiplexers to split an incoming DWDM signal into its component channel wavelengths, each of which is directed to a switching matrix where it is switched to an output port and recombined into an outgoing DWDM signal by a multiplexer before being transmitted out of the switch. A wavelength-converting switch, connected across the switching matrices, is also included for switching channels between wavelengths. Thus, the switch provides port switching by virtue of the switching matrices and channel switching by virtue of the wavelength- converting switch, as well as a combination of both port and channel switching.
