Patent EP-0381952-B1 (EP)
IPC: A44C11/02
Filed: 1990-01-16
Granted: 1993-05-12
Abstract: A plug-type clasp for pieces of jewerly, in particular for necklaces, composed of a housing in which a sleeve is movable under the force of a spring. The sleeve has a receiving opening into which a connecting element can be inserted through a front-end opening of the housing and locked there. Both the front-end opening of the housing and the receiving opening of the sleeve are eccentrically offset from each other, so that the connecting element can only be inserted into the housing, and locked there, only after the sleeve has been pulled back against the force of the spring. Removal of the connecting part can take place in the correspondingly reversed order. Activation of the sleeve for unlocking the plug-type clasp takes place by means of an operating button, laterally guided in a longitudinal hole of the housing, so that the actual connecting areas of the plug-type clasp for pieces of jewelry, in particular necklaces, remain free of pulling stresses during the operation of the plug-type clasp. With the exception of the spring and sleeve, no other movable parts are required.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cable sleeve consisting of a longitudinally split sleeve pipe (MR) with a closure system on the longitudinal sides and sealing bodies (DK) on the end sides. The sealing bodies (DK) have at least one projecting entry connecting piece (ES), at least one of the entry connecting pieces (ES) having two longitudinal splits in the direction of the longitudinal axis. As a result of the sealing body sector cut-outs (DKS1, DKS2, DKS3) produced thereby, uncut cables can also be inserted subsequently. The sealing between the entry connecting piece (ES) and the respectively inserted cable (K) is effected by a sealing element which compensates the diameter, preferably by objects which can be shrunk. <IMAGE>

IPC: B25J13/00
Filed: 1990-08-16
Granted: 1997-07-23
Abstract: A technique for preventing a stalled linear motor device from damage including monitoring accelerometer servos which generate signals representative of the difference between a command acceleration signal controlling the linear motor and the actual acceleration experienced by the linear motor device which signal represents the acceleration error and the direction of the error. The different signal is compared against programmed limits to develop a break-loose signal when the programmed limit (positive or negative) is exceeded. The break-loose signal is monitored as to duration, which duration is preprogrammed according to the dynamics of the system specifications presently in use. In the event that the break-loose signal exceeds the preprogrammed time limit, a latch is set, generating an interrupt signal applied to the computer control which immediately removes all motive power from the system and tests the latch to determine the source of the error, the latch remaining in the set state awaiting the computer test and being reset only after recognition by the computer.
