Abstract: An adjustable focus connector with spring action is especially adapted for use with common FC or SMA fiber optic receptacles. The connector includes a ferrule holder which mounts a fiber-carrying ferrule at a distal end thereof. At its proximal end the ferrule holder is threadedly connected to a lead screw member. A thrust collar surrounds the ferrule holder and traps a compression spring in the cavity between the thrust collar and the ferrule holder. Because of appropriate interengagement between the components the ferrule holder cannot rotate relative to the trust collar. A traveler is threadedly connected to the lead screw and abuts against the thrust collar. A connection nut is provided at the distal end of the connector to connect it to the fiber optic receptacle. The spring action of the connector prevents damage to the fiber end during connection of the connector to the fiber optic receptacle

Abstract: Disclosed is a contact bar for use on a capping board of a given length in order to electrically connect a plurality of anodes and cathodes extending in spaced apart, alternate positions in adjacent electrolytic cells all along the capping board. The contact bar extends over the length of the capping board and is of a given average cross-section. This contact bar comprises a central core that is made of an insulating material and extends all over its length. This contact bar also comprises a plurality of contact pieces that are made of an electrically conductive material and are positioned in spaced apart positions all along the core, each of the pieces defining a segment on which only a short number of the anodes and cathodes are connected. Due to such a division of the contact bar into segments formed by the contact pieces that are no more an electrical contact with each other thanks to the core made of insulating material, any short circuit that occurs by accident is no more "transferred" to all the electrodes of the cells. It is actually transmitted only to the few electrodes in contact with the segment(s) to which is connected the electrode that may cause the trouble.

Title: Soft close ring binder mechanism
Inventor: CHENG HUNG YU
IPC: B42F13/26
Filed: 2005-01-24
Granted: 2010-03-30
Abstract: A ring binder mechanism that retains loose-leaf pages and has ring members that do not snap together when they close and that easily open and close as pages accumulate. The mechanism includes a housing that supports two hinge plates for loose pivoting motion, moving the ring members apart or together. The mechanism further includes an actuating lever pivotally mounted on the housing. The lever moves a travel bar and locking elements for controllably pivoting the hinge plates, and therefore controllably moving the ring members apart and together. In particular, the locking elements cam the hinge plates to softly close the ring members. When the ring members are apart, the locking elements register with openings in at least one of the hinge plates. When the ring members are together, the locking elements are out of registration with the openings, blocking the hinge plates from pivoting to separate the ring members.

Title: System and method for optically imaging objects on a detection device by means of a pinhole aperture
Inventor: DREIBHOLZ JOERG
IPC: G06V10/145
Filed: 2006-01-19
Granted: 2012-05-15
Abstract: The invention describes systems and methods for optically imaging objects and in particular optical patterns or codes onto a detection device by means of a pinhole aperture. According to the invention these systems have optical attenuation elements between the illumination devices and the object which substantially compensate the system-inherent imaging defects caused by the pinhole aperture and in particular the system-inherent peripheral decrease in brightness of an image of the object formed by a pinhole aperture on the detection device. According to the invention the optical attenuation elements change the illumination intensity of the object in such a manner that the central areas of the object are illuminated at a lower light intensity than its peripheral areas. As a result of the subsequent imaging of the object by means of a pinhole aperture, the central areas of the object are imaged onto the detection device at a higher light intensity than the peripheral areas of the object. The superimposition of the two effects enables the imaging system according to the invention to achieve a substantially uniform system-inherent brightness distribution on the detection device.
