Patent number: 9543696Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide apparatuses, systems, and methods for a quick maintenance of an electrical connector, such as a SAE J560 compliant connector. In one implementation, a connector includes a cable bundling wires extending into a housing having a body extending between a proximal end and a distal end. A distal terminal holder is disposed within an opening of the body at the proximal end. The distal terminal holder has a surface oriented in a direction away from the body. Terminals extend from the surface of the distal terminal holder, and each of the terminals is in electrical communication with one of the wires. Terminal assemblies each have a distal opening into which one of the terminals extends. A proximal terminal holder has terminal openings extending from a distal surface to a proximal surface, and each of the terminal assemblies extends through one of the terminal openings.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2015Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: PETERSON MANUFACTURING COMPANYInventors: David Shaw Armacost, Mark Pecaro

Patent number: 9499109Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure involve an apparatus and/or method for a modular communication system for use in a tractor trailer to monitor and/or control various components associated within the trailer. In one particular embodiment, the communication system includes encryption/decryption controller boards configured to encrypt/encode messages or signals received at the boards for transmission along a transmission media between the front controller board and rear controller board. Further, one or both of the controller boards may be configured to decrypt/decode messages or signals received at the boards from the other controller board and perform a function in response to the decrypted message. The communication system may also integrate and communicate with several modules within or associated with the trailer, such as sensors, locators, or communication mechanisms.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2015Date of Patent: November 22, 2016Assignee: PETERSON MANUFACTURING COMPANYInventors: David Shaw Armacost, Steven Brent Ham, Rhett Andrew Peterson

Publication number: 20150236466Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide apparatuses, systems, and methods for creating circuit breakouts within a molded harness to provide electrical energy to several connection points from a single energy source connection point. In one implementation, a component group wire configured to supply electrical power from a source to a component group including a set of target components is terminated. The terminated component group wire is connected to an input terminal of a printed circuit board. The input terminal corresponds to a breakout circuit for the component group. A plurality of component wires are terminated. Each of the component wires correspond to a component in the set of target components. Each of the terminated component wires are connected to an output terminal in the breakout circuit for the component group. The output terminals are electrically connected to the input terminal with conducting traces embedded into the printed circuit board.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 18, 2015Publication date: August 20, 2015Applicant: Peterson Manufacturing CompanyInventors: David Shaw Armacost, Robert Brumback, Rhett Peterson

Publication number: 20120281424Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide a dual function illumination lamp in compliance with regulations for vehicular forward lighting. In one implementation, the illumination lamp includes a first reflector and a second reflector. The first reflector has a first reflecting region adapted to reflect light emitted from a first light emitting diode through an optics-free lens. The light reflected from the first reflecting region forms a first beam light pattern. The second reflector has a second reflecting region adapted to reflect light emitted from a second light emitting diode through the optics-free lens. The light reflected from the second reflecting region forms a second beam light pattern that is different from the first beam light pattern. In some implementations, the first beam light pattern is a low beam light pattern, and the second beam light pattern is a high beam light pattern.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2012Publication date: November 8, 2012Applicant: PETERSON MANUFACTURING COMPANYInventors: John Alexander Hansen, Nathan Thomas Taylor, Donald M.
