Patent number: 4782580Abstract: A method for making a slip ring assembly contemplates welding to one face of each of a plurality of varying diameter concentric conducting rings a plurality of electrically conducting studs, positioning a plurality of the rings within grooves inscribed in a first mold section in an accurately spaced concentric arrangement with respect to each other, surrounding the rings radially interiorly thereof with one or more pre-cut insulating plies, placing insulating material in the spaces between the concentrically spaced rings and radially outwardly thereof, positioning a plurality of pre-cut insulating plies axially of the rings and insulating material aligned to permit passage of the studs through pre-cut holes in the plies, closing a second mold section on the first mold section, and heating the assembly under pressure in the mold sections until the assembly is cured.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 1987Date of Patent: November 8, 1988Assignee: National Machine Company, Inc.Inventors: Joseph C. Cacioppo, Donald R. Wuerzer, Peter J. Piglia

Patent number: 4413645Abstract: A swivel valve assembly (10) for an inflatable member (M) permitting passage of a high velocity input of fluid from a pressurized source and providing sealing closure upon pressure equalization including a body (11,12) having a connector (13) for sealing engagement with the inflatable member, a bore (27) in the body communicating with the pressurized source of fluid, a passage (51) in said body communicating with the inflatable member and connecting with the bore, and a movable poppet (55) operative with a sealing member (60) for precluding fluid flow upon pressure equalization and having a disk (66) positioned in the bore for throttling the high velocity input of fluid before passing the sealing member.Type: GrantFiled: December 24, 1980Date of Patent: November 8, 1983Assignee: National Machine Company, Inc.Inventors: Peter P. Seabase, Rickard N. Crewes

Patent number: 4116577Abstract: A valve for use in a system having a source of fluid, two pumps and means responsive to a change in the flow condition of the fluid caused by a lack of proper performance of one of the pumps to effect a utilization of the fluid pumped by the other pump. The valve includes a body having a pair of inlet ports and an outlet port spaced from the inlet ports. One of the pumps is connected to a first inlet port with the other pump being connected to a second inlet port. A passageway is provided in the valve body and extends between and is in fluid communication with the pair of inlet ports and the outlet port. A first normally closed valve is provided in the valve body for controlling the main flow of fluid from one of the pumps and is openable in response to a predetermined pressure differential in the fluid at the first inlet port and the outlet port. The first normally closed valve is closed, in addition to the normal closing thereof, in response to a fluid flow from the other pump.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 1977Date of Patent: September 26, 1978Assignee: National Machine Company, Inc.Inventor: John A. Lauck
