Title: Improved robotic arm for handling product
Inventor: FALLAS DAVID M
IPC: B25J9/10
Filed: 1994-03-04
Abstract: A robotic arm for moving product from a first handling station to a second handling station is disclosed. The robotic arm includes a support structure and a driven shaft mounted to the support structure. The driven shaft is adapted for rotation about a first axis.      A device is provided for selectively oscillating the shaft through successive, selected arcs of rotation. A crank arm is secured to the driven shaft at a first point such that the crank arm is rotated about the first axis.      A linkage member is rotatably secured to the support structure for rotation about a second axis. The linkage member is rotatably secured to the support structure at a first linkage pivot point on the linkage member. The crank arm and the linkage member are interconnected by an elongated boom member having a first end, a cranking point and a product handling end. The boom member is pivotally connected at its first end to the linkage member. The boom member is further pivotally connected at its cranking point to the crank arm. The interrelationship among these members is such that when the crank arm is selectively oscillated, the crank arm causes movement of the product handling end of the boom in a path having an arcuate component and an approximately straight line component for handling product.

Title: Striker pin device for an electric fuse
Inventor: CROOKS WILLIAM R
IPC: H01H85/30
Filed: 1994-12-12
Abstract: A striker pin device for providing a visual indication of an operated condition of an associated fuse, comprising a tubular housing 18 coaxially arranged within the fuse with an end of the housing in contact with an end of the fuse.  The tubular housing has a closure structure comprised of a one-piece integrally formed closure member having a projection protruding out of the housing and an opened end with a cavity. A piston with a central projection received in the opened end of the closure member forms a gas tight enclosure containing pyrotechnic material therein. An ignition element is attached to a brass pin which extends through the projection of the closure member and is connected to a tubular terminal or electrical conductor member which is attached to a high resistance pilot wire, which in turn is stretched through the fuse. The ignition element attached to the brass pin extends through the pyrotechnic material, between the contacting surfaces of the closure member and the piston, and between the contacting surfaces of the piston and tubular housing for electrical connection between the ignition element and the housing. Ignition of the pyrotechnic material drives the piston and thus a striker pin toward the opposite end of the housing to cause the striker pin to pierce the fuse cap thereby providing the visual indication of the operated condition of the fuse, the pyrotechnical material being ignited upon rupture of the low resistance fusible elements by the resulting flow of the shunt current through the electrically connected elements of the striker pin device.

Abstract: The easel for displaying documents such as photographs in an inclined plane is obtained from a pre-cut blank sheet of semi-rigid material such as cardboard. By folding the blank along three non parallel lines in the shape of a triangle a first panel (1) is made for taking the document. A second panel (2) forms a rear foot support for the first panel and a third panel (3) joins the lower portions of the first and second panels. The upper portion of the first panel is cut out from the second panel and led beyond the plane of the second panel to stay in the plane of the first panel. This leaves in the second panel a window (8) having notches (9) in which are anchored tabs (10,10') of the third panel. The height of the notches determines the inclination of the first panel.
