Abstract: 1342543 Terminals BROWN BOVERI & CIE AG 25 Oct 1971 [31 Oct 1970] 49506/71 Heading H2E  A switch or other electrical device has terminals 3 locked in place in cavities 7 by engagement of tongues 15 with shoulders 17 or (Fig. 2, not shown) of recesses (16) with lugs (18). A conductor 21 is inserted into a cavity 7 and clamped against terminal 3 by a prestressed leaf spring 6. Spring 6 is substantially flat in its unstressed condition. It is held in place by a projection 9 of the housing near one end and by engagement of its other end 12 with a groove 13 in the housing. Spring'6 is prestressed by an arm 10. The spring 6 is inserted with the aid of a pressure tool (23, Fig. 4, not shown) applied near end 12. The wire can be released by inserting a pressure tool 22 through aperture 20 so as to bear on the spring. In a switch having contacts 4, 5 and a cam rod 2, the terminals are arranged along opposite sides of the housing in two rows parallel to cam rod 2 (Fig. 3, not shown). Each spring 6 may be of single-finger or multi-finger form (Fig. 3, not shown). Reliable clamping is assisted by the angle at which spring 6 bears on wire 21.

Filed: 1969-10-13
Abstract: 1291454 Applying container closures; feeding sheets BENZ & HILGERS GmbH 13 Oct 1969 [29 Nov 1968] 50109/69 Headings B8R and B8T A cover disc 2 for a container 44 is fed from a magazine 1 and held by suction on the head 21 of one of at least two plungers 18 which rotate continuously to carry the disc to a station where the plunger is extended to locate the disc on a container 44. A polygonal rotary head, 17 mounts shanks 19 to each of which is attached a member 22 by means of a bearing 20. The member 22 has a roller 24 running in a guide track 29. The plunger 18 can reciprocate upon member 22 and has a roller 25 running in a second guide track 30. Discs 2 are fed from the magazine 1 by a suction member 3 and transferred by rollers 4 to a support frame 6 which is reciprocated vertically by a rod 14, also causing a horizontal reciprocation under the action of a stationary cam 13 upon a follower 12 attached to the frame 6. In the region of the frame 6 the profiles of the two guide tracks 29, 30, are such as to rotate the member 22 relative to shank 19 and cause the plunger head 21 to remain vertical for a short period as it travels downwards. During this period the support frame 6 is moving as described above to bring a disc 2 into close proximity to the plunger head 21 and keep the disc and head stationary relative to each other while suction is applied through annular slot 27 and passage 26 causing the disc to adhere to the plunger head. The outer guide track 30 is interrupted at 31 where the plunger 18 is extended downwardly by a lever 32 actuated by a rod 34 reciprocating vertically against a spring 35. The rod 34 is operated by links 36 and 39 which pivot about 37 under the action of a rotary cam 38. While the plunger 18 is being extended a conveyer 46 brings a container 44 into position to receive a disc. The plunger is then retracted, passage 26 having come out of communication with suction slot 27 in order to release the disc. Should the plunger fail to pick up a disc at the frame 6, the fact is detected by a photo-electric device 41 which sends an electrical pulse along circuit 42 to energize an electromagnet 43 which locks the plunger 18 in the retracted position by means of a lever 39a attached to the plunger extending mechanism. The machine may also be used for applying caps to the containers.

Abstract: 1,212,183. Indicating apparatus. G. R. DESIGNS Ltd. Nov.9, 1967 [Nov. 9, 1966], No.50305/66. Heading G1J. [Also in Division H3] An indicator comprises a plurality of members mounted on shafts which are coaxial one within another, the members having angular face portions which are co-planar with one another, are perpendicular to the shafts and bear digits adjacent to one another to make up a complete number, means being provided for rotation of the shafts relative to one another. The indicator may be used for indicating the operating frequency of the airborne navigation-communication equipment of Specification 1, 212, 184, determined by switched crystals. In Fig. 1 coaxial shafts 51-53 carry knobs (K1-K3) in Fig. 2 (not shown) for setting the tuning and have gears C1-C3 (only C1 shown) meshing with gears C4-C6 (only C4 shown) on similar coaxial shafts in the tuner. The latter gears also mesh with gears C7-C9 Fig.3 on further coaxial shafts S7-S9 which have at their ends recessed annular flat portions F1-F3. Detents T1-T3 ensure that these shafts can be set only in predetermined angular positions. The portions F1-F3 carry digits Fig. 1 which together with a "1" on the fixed part of the indicator make up a six-digit number with decimal point to show in MHz the frequency to which the equipment is tuned. The three gears of each set (e.g. C1-C3) are of the same size and the shafts of gears C4-C6 have detents for setting them in predetermined angular positions corresponding to those of shafts S7-S9. On assembly, gears C4-C6 and C7-C9 thus remain fixed while gears C1-C3 rotate to engage the former. In other applications the shafts may be coupled together in a decade arrangement with a single input, to indicate units, tens and hundreds.

The parts 3, 4 may define a piston head, one part 4 being fixed to the piston-rod 27, while the other part 3 is screw-threaded thereto. Similarly, the part 21 may form a cylinder end closure, attached to a ring 32 by bolts 47, with the part 16 screwed thereto. To compress the seals 1, 19, 20, the portions 3, 4 are displaced to the end of the cylinder 2 adjacent the ring 32, so that spring- loaded catch pins 14 enter recesses 15 in a ring 42. The ring 42 is rotationally locked to a ring 41 by a torque coupling comprising spring- loaded balls 44, pins 45 in turn locking the ring 41 to the part 16. Spring-loaded pins 6, 26 engage in recesses of the members 3, 16, which recesses have arcuately inclined surfaces to allow relative rotation of the members 3, 4 and 16, 21 only in a direction to screw them axially closer together, the recesses 15 being similarly formed, so that rotation of the piston-rod 27 relative to the cylinder 2, e.g. by means of a rod inserted through an eye 22 allows the effective sealing pressure to be increased. Alternatively (not shown), the eye 22 may be detachable, a piston-rod portion, e.g. of square or hexagonal section then being engageable by means of a spanner.
