Granted: 1985-07-24
Abstract: In a switch or relay and, more particularly, a power or auxiliary switch or relay with a contact system mounted in a housing, as well as a magnet system which actuates the contact system, considerable difficulties are encountered when the contacts of the contact system are disposed in at least two planes which are disposed at different distances from the mounting plane. In such a case, the contact connecting zones which are facing away from the mounting plane are covered by the wiring for the contact connecting screws which are further displaced from the mounting plane and therefore are not accessible. Since switches or relays of this type are usually installed in large numbers in rows and in a compact arrangement with respect to each other in switch or relay boxes, a predetermined standard width for the switches or relays should not be exceeded. The employed switch or relay boxes are subjected to considerable shocks during transport to the installation site, so that the total wiring and the firm seating of the contact connecting screws must be checked before operation. In order to enable a simple handling of the wiring possibilities for the contacts and to also enable alternate installation of the wiring on the upper or on the lower contact connecting screws, or vice versa, without increasing the limited width of the switch or relay boxes, as is the case in actual practice, regardless of the number of poles, the switch or relay chambers are laterally displaced with respect to each other within the common flat side faces of the housing, while simultaneously maintaining the predetermined width from plane to plane, so that each contact connecting screw is freely accessible at the different distance planes of the installed wiring.

Title: Wiring harness
IPC: H01B7/36
Filed: 1980-10-31
Granted: 1985-05-15
Abstract: A plurality of connecting wires to be connected to different points are arranged in order and tied in a planar configuration by strings or the like at the beginning, the middle and the end terminal portions thereof which correspond to the positions of devices to be wired, so that the arranged connecting wires can be released with a clear recognition of the wire-order and the terminal-portion-positions at the tied positions. This wiring harness facilitates wiring operation, raises efficiency and eliminates the need for referring to a wring diagram during the wiring operation. The planar configuration facilitates mechanization of wiring and permits full automation of wiring by combination with a computer or the like. Further, a bundle of the wiring harnesses is suitable for wiring and connecting in electric control equipment since the sectional area occupied for the wiring is not increased and is almost the same as in the conventional case.

Abstract: The fixing member is mainly intended for as an individual member, as a part of a larger element, or as an intermediate member to be clamped to a shaftlike element, such as a shaft, a trunnion, or a ring, secured against rotational as well as axial displacement. The fixing member is provided with a centre opening (14) the dimensions of which with glide fits correspond to the outer dimensions of the shaftlike element. Outside the centre opening (14) the fixing member is provided with an approximately conical main portion (10), and the portion (for example 12) of the member bordering the centre opening (14) is provided with such folds (18) that the edge face (16) of the centre opening (14) is zigzag or wave shaped. When the fixing member is axially compressed a flattening of the main portion takes place which, owing to the folds (18), brings about such a contraction of the centre opening (14) that the inner edge face (16) of the member by great force is pressed against the circumference of the shaftlike member with a contact area that, owing to the zigzag or wave shape of the said edge face (16), is relatively large. Simultaneously the circumference of the main portion (10) is expanded and, especially in case the folds (18) extend to the circumference of the fixing member, or in case the main portion (10) is provided with notches in the part thereof bordering the circumference the resulting expansion of the main portion (10) grew still more pronounced and may be utilized for securing the fixing member within a hollow space.

Abstract: The invention relates to a ventilation unit in a frame or the like, the said unit comprising a flow-duct and a slide having a leg which opens and closes the said flow-duct, the said slide being adapted to move at least partly back and forth in the said flow-duct, a stop-surface being associated with the leg which possesses a sealing surface. A ventilating unit of this kind is fitted, for example, in a window-frame or an opening in a wall, the slide providing a satisfactory seal in the closed position, since a major energy loss would otherwise have to be feared. The ventilation unit is to be reliable in operation and to provide reliable sealing. In order to solve this problem, it is proposed that the slide be substantially U-shaped, a second leg having a sealing surface being provided in the flow-duct. This second leg extends over a portion of the structural height of the said flow-duct and a stop-surface is associated with sealing surface of the said second leg, a guide-element for the slide being provided on both longitudinal sides of the said flow-duct. The ventilation unit according to the invention thus comprises at least two sealing surfaces, so that, when the slide is closed, satisfactory sealing is assured. The slide is furthermore reliably guided in a simple manner by the said guide-elements, thus ensuring great reliability.

Abstract: The epicyclic gear comprises a driving member, a driven member and a control member of which the peripheral speed may be varied with respect to the driving and/or driven members. The teeth of the different members are continuously in mesh with a given reduction ratio which is determined between the teeth of the outer members and/or by at least one reduction stage inside the intermediary member. The intermediary member interconnects the outer members so that they rotate in the same direction. In order to control the rotation speed of the intermediary member without having to overcome a reaction moment, a chain (72-75) is arranged between the driving member (71) and the driven member (77) of which the axes are arranged on at least two different radial lines (81-84) of the central axis (70). The whole assembly is sized in such a way that, when the gear is loaded, at least one of the wheels (72, 75) is supported by a neighbouring wheel by means of a radial traction or pressure load. Thereby, the control member has hardly any reaction motion when no control or braking force acts on the control member.

Granted: 1985-08-21
Abstract: A stored controlled system has its control unit (1) connected to a plurality of function units (2) via an information bus (6) for transferring control information and via an addressing means (7) which converts an address number assigned to one of the function units into an access signal which is sent to said function unit. Incorrect information reception in the function units is avoided and system handling facilitated by means of giving identity to the function units every time the system is started. The control unit includes a number pair generator (5) for generating an identification number parallel with the address number, which number pair is assigned to the same function unit. The identification number is transferred via the information bus (6) and is registered during system starting in a registering means (11, 12) included in said function unit. The function unit includes a converter (15-18) for converting the access signal during system operation to a selection signal only if the identification number obtained from the number pair generator (5) agrees with the identification number stored in the registering means (11, 12). The selection signal activates the function unit for reception of control information.
