摘要: An AC switch mechanism utilizes a ball contact to which generally linear motion is imparted by a rockable actuator having a spring providing downward contact force and a spring acting ball pusher leg to provide a snap action. In a single pole configuration disclosed as a typical and basic embodiment of the switch, the ball contact in one extreme position engages and extends as a conductive bridging element between bared conductor wires of an electric cable. The cable thus dispenses with the need for assembling separately made switch terminals with the other components of the mechanism. When moved from the "on" position to its other extreme, "off" position, the ball moves onto sloping ramps having a slight, gradual inclination relative to the lengths of the conductor wires. The construction offers a slow break to provide a minimum arc length before the zero point of the AC cycle, a characteristic of great importance in the design and operation of AC switches. Further benefits are obtained by providing a simultaneous two-point break to divide the arc and therefore reduce the arc's outward extension and tracking of the adjacent areas. The design is additionally effective to produce a fast bounce, free make to minimize contact deterioration caused by arcing at the "make" point of the switching cycle. The need for silver alloy contacts is eliminated by providing a continuously moving point of arc termination which cools the contact surface, minimizing the volume of vaporized material, and condenses out the copper vapor during the zero point of the half cycle.

摘要: A panel-mounted duplex electrical receptacle easily is ganged with another receptacle to form a power terminal strip of any desired length. Each receptacle is mounted with a snap action in a cutout formed in a panel. The receptacles are wired together by inserting a bare conductor into aligned channels formed in the receptacles. Resilient tongues are provided on contact strips provided within the receptacles for pressing the inserted conductor into electromechanical contact with the respective contact strip. A resilient tab on each receptacle lockingly retains the inserted conductor in each channel. Each contact strip is cut from a substantially planar preform in a scrapless manner.

摘要: An improved incandescent light bulb which is capable of affording increased light efficiency without a resultant increase in either cost or energy consumption. In one embodiment of the bulb, said bulb includes a refractory stiff supporting element, at least one elongated helical resistive filament, two terminals which are each capable of being physically and electrically connected to a different socket and an elongated light transmissive envelope. In another embodiment the bulb additionally includes a reflector bonded to the envelope which reflects light and conducts heat away from said envelope. The stiff supporting element is formed to have a hollow interior. In said hollow interior a magnetizable elongated slug and two holding magnets may be contained. The slug and holding magnets cooperate with a switching means in the interior of the envelope to allow the bulb to selectively emit either a bright or a dim light.

摘要: A hot water collector to be erected on the sloped roof of an enclosure so that solar energy, i.e. the rays of the sun, will shine on the collector and heat water flowing therein. The collector features a plurality of parallel generally rectilinear channels arranged on the roof, extending transversely to the pitch of the roof and extending horizontally and transversely across the sloped roof. Water flows from one end of a channel to the other and then down to the next lower channel. The water is heated by the sun as it flows along successive channels, and heated water is removed from the lowest channel for space heating or other uses. A specific configuration of solar hot water collector consisting of an elongated metal strip and a plurality of metal mounting brackets is also disclosed, as well as a method of installing a solar hot water collector on the sloped roof of an enclosure using a plurality of elongated metal strips.

摘要: A push-in electrical wire connector for interconnecting at least two electrical wires includes a housing and a wire-clamping member mounted therein. The clamping member has apertures through each of which a respective conductor is insertable, and a resilient clamping portion extending lengthwise of the housing in an overlying relationship with an interior support wall. Due to its resilience, the clamping portion deflects from an initial position to a deflected position in which the clamping portion electromechanically engages and constantly urges the inserted conductor against the support wall.

摘要: A slat assembly is mounted upon the leading edge of an aircraft wing, and responds automatically to changes in air speed or in the angle of attack of the wing, to increase lift at lower air speeds, and to reduce the stalling speed of the wing. A capability is induced in the aircraft for landing and taking off in short distances. For an aircraft of given size and power, also, there is offered an added safety factor in that the aircraft is permitted to land at slower landing speeds than have heretofore been possible. For the purpose of accomplishing these results, the automatic leading edge slat utilizes a base plate projecting from the leading edge of the aircraft wing, and supporting a slat having airfoil characteristics forwardly of the leading edge of the wing. Connecting the slat to the base plate or strip are flat springs shaped and tensioned to permit slat motion in a plurality of directions as a response to air pressures, according to their magnitude and the directions in which they impinge against the slat surfaces. The construction additionally permits manual operation such that the slats of both wings may be positioned in a drag configuration for glide path control. Or, manual operation of a selected one of the slats can offer roll control instead of through the use of conventional ailerons. The action is superior to ailerons because adverse yaw is eliminated and rudder-controlled turn coordination is no longer necessary. Also, this allows for full span flaps which lowers the stalling speed even further.
摘要翻译: 板条组件安装在飞行器机翼的前缘上,并自动响应空气速度的变化或机翼的迎角,以较低的空气速度增加升力,并降低机翼的失速速度。 在飞机中引起了一个能力,用于着陆和短距离起飞。 对于具有特定尺寸和功率的飞机,还提供了一个额外的安全系数,因为飞机以比以前可能的更低的着陆速度被允许着陆。 为了实现这些结果,自动前缘板条利用从飞行器机翼的前缘突出的底板,并且支撑具有机翼前缘的翼型特征的板条。 将板条连接到基板或条带是扁平的弹簧成形和张紧,以根据它们的大小和它们撞击板条表面的方向,根据空气压力在多个方向上进行板条运动。 该结构另外允许手动操作,使得两个翼的板条可以被定位成用于滑动路径控制的拖动配置。 或者,所选择的一个板条的手动操作可以提供滚动控制,而不是通过使用常规副翼。 该动作优于副翼,因为不利的偏航被消除,并且不再需要舵控制的转向协调。 此外,这允许全跨襟翼进一步降低失速速度。

摘要: A socket mountable in a light fixture such as a table or floor lamp or a wall fixture. An electric light bulb is mounted in the socket, and is switched off and on by means of a central lower axial switch, the turn knob of the switch depending downwards from the socket. The improved bottom turn socket features a husk and cooperating lower cover housing about the switch. The housing includes at least one interior boss. The electric line cord is placed in a slot in the cover housing, and the boss, which is adjacent the slot, pinches the line cord against an end of the husk when the cover housing is emplaced, to provide strain relief. Preferably, two slots are provided in the cover housing, each having an associated adjacent interior boss to provide strain relief, so that a second line cord electrically connected in parallel within the bottom turn socket may extend from the husk of the socket to another light fixture.

摘要: A multiple electrical outlet strip is made in a simple inexpensive manner, yet the device produced has enhanced mechanical and electrical properties. A housing is extruded from plastic, and includes elongated electrically conductive material-receiving interior channels. A plurality of sets of spaced through-extending openings are formed in the housing top surface adjacent the electrically conductive material-receiving interior channels, the openings for receipt of male electrical plug prongs. Elongated spring brass contact strips are inserted the electrically conductive material-receiving interior into channels, and the strips are electrically interconnected to a cord which extends exteriorly of the housing. A bottom cover which comprises a plastic extrusion is slid into covering relationship with the housing bottom, and end plates are mounted with the housing to cover its open ends.
