LGA contact with extended arm for IC connector

An LGA contact (40, 40′) for electrically connecting an IC package (32, 32′) and a PCB (34, 34′) includes a vertical basic part (42 and 44, 42′ and 44′), a vertical section (43, 43′) bendedly outwardly extending from a lateral side of the vertical basic part, an arm (48, 48′) extending upwardly from a top of said vertical section and a contacting portion (49, 49′) extending from an distal end of the arm. The arm has a rearwardly extending portion (482, 482′) and a forwardly extending portion (480, 480′). Further, two projections of the vertical section and the vertical basic part on a horizontal surface form an acute angle therebetween, thereby the arm can be devised to be relatively long to get good spring characteristics and many of this kind of contacts can be arranged in a relative less pitch as being assembled a housing (50, 50′).

Method for replacing insulator chains in 220 kV long-span high tower in live working

The invention relates to an operating tool for replacing insulator chains in live working, particularly to a method for replacing insulator chains in a 220 kV long-span high tower in live working. The key point is that the technology bias is overcome in a way that arcing horns and grading rings on a yoke plate for connecting the insulator chains are temporarily dismantled on a cross arm of the 220 kV long-span high tower to reserve screw holes for connecting fixtures on the yoke plate; the upper fixture and the lower fixture are connected with the yoke plate to lift the insulator chains, and the stress borne by the entire tool is half of that in the prior art, so that bearing and operation on the big-load insulator chains can be realized; and an equipotential electrician is borne by a chairlift to enter and go out of the electric field at the cross arm, so that the safety and controllability are stronger, the operating method is simple, the operating tool can be directly obtained from the existing tools, time and labor saving as well as economy are realized, and the replacement of the insulator chains on a steel pipe pole high tower comes true.

Recording medium drive including latch member for head actuator member

A recording medium drive allows a latch stop member to receive a latch member. The swinging movement around a rotation shaft causes the latch member to enter the movement path of a head actuator member. The latch member thus engages with the head actuator member. The latch member has the portion in contact with the latch stop member. The portion is made of a material different from the main portion of the latch member. The repulsive coefficient can be adjusted between the portion and the latch stop member. An identical condition can be established for transmission of an impact between the head actuator member and the actuator stop member as well as between the latch member and the latch stop member. Even if impacts of different duration act on the recording medium drive, the latch member is allowed to reliably engage with the head actuator member.

One-way power transmission unit, a fusing unit driving apparatus for duplex printer using the same, a method for one way power transmission, and a method for driving a fusing unit

A one-way power transmission unit has force-fitting means formed on at least one of an outer circumference of a boss of a driving member and an inner circumference of a boss hole of a latch member, for force-fitting the driving member into the latch member with a friction which is less than a load exerted to a driven member. A method of one-way power transmission including, inter alia, force-fitting the driving member into the latch member with a friction which is less than a load exerted to a driven member. Since the latch member force-fits over the boss of the driving member, the driving member and the latch member rotate together with each other when the driving member switches from a driving force disconnection state to a driving force connection state, and thus, engagement of latch gears of the driving member and the latch member is reliably achieved. Accordingly, the time interval between switching from the driving force disconnection state to the connection state can be maintained to be essentially constant.

Toothed wheel gearing (variants) and a planetary toothed mechanism based thereon (variants)

The engagement of gearwheels with curvilinear teeth is intended to create small-sized mechanical gears of rotational motion with big gear ratio in one stage. The smaller gearwheel—pinion (16)—has one tooth, having in its face section the shape of circumference (3), eccentrically shifted with respect to the axis OO1 of the gearwheel (16). The curvilinear helical tooth of the gearwheel (16) (helical eccentric) is generated by sequential shifting of the circumference 3 along the axis OO1 and its continuous turning around the axis. The greater gearwheel (17) has helical teeth, generated by turning of the cycloidal curve (5), the teeth are conjugated with the helical surface of the pinion (16). The engagement has a continuous line of contact along the whole length of the tooth, where in each section a circular pin tooth and a cycloid are engaged, having minimum losses for friction. In order to eliminate axial loads, occurring in engagement of helical teeth, the gearwheels (16) and (17) are made herring-bone. The similar eccentrically cycloidal engagement can be implemented by assembled gearwheels. On the basis of the engagement one can design cylindrical gearboxes with parallel shafts, bevel gearboxes with intersecting shafts, and also planetary gears according to David and James schemes, possessing the increased load carrying capacity at smaller overall dimensions.

The triple tongue-in-groove seal includes two smaller tongue-in-groove seals with a larger tongue-in-groove seal disposed therebetween. The larger tongue-in-groove structure provides structural strength to help prevent the lid from skewing when the container suffers stress such as an impact at a corner, and also helps to guide the lid and base into proper alignment when the lid is being closed. The smaller tongue-in-groove seals provide double redundant sealing to help contain hazardous materials inside the container without making the rim of the container excessively wide.
