Abstract: A fuse assembly is provided having two fusible elements, electrically in parallel with each other, thereby providing the fuse assembly with increased inrush current withstand capacity, a greater range of current ratings and lower temperature rise at higher rated currents.

Abstract: A fuse holder is provided comprising a fuse box having opposed top and bottom walls, opposed side walls and opposed faces wherein the fuse box has a plurality of fuse cavities each extending from the front face toward the rear face terminating short of said rear face. Each fuse cavity is substantially parallel to the side walls and substantially perpendicular to the top and bottom walls, and a contact is disposed within each cavity electrically connected to a conductor extending through the rear face of the fuse box.

Abstract: A self-retaining snap-in clip is provided for securely mounting a fuse holder with mounting tabs onto the panel of an equipment enclosure or frame mounted drawer. The clip has a body portion having a pair of spaced legs and a base connecting the legs together. A locking leg extends upwardly from one of the legs away from the other leg and a holding means on the locking leg serves to securely engage the fuse holder with the clip.

Abstract: A fuse holder for flat mounting on the edge surface of a printed circuit board comprises a compartment for receiving a fuse assembly; coterminous contact pins which are locked in position and which can be inserted in corresponding apertures on the surface of the board and two locating bosses for anchoring the fuse holder on the board when the pins are inserted in said apertures and soldered.

Abstract: A dual position, piggyback fuse holder for mounting on the edge of a printed circuit board comprises two fuse holder compartments each adapted to receive a fuse assembly, plurality of coterminous contact pins which are locked in position and which can be inserted in corresponding apertures on the surface of the board and two locating bosses for anchoring the fuse holder on the board when the pins are inserted in said apertures and soldered.

Abstract: A fabric fusing device is described having a heat box and a conveyor assembly with a continuous belt. The conveyor assembly is floating above the belt at a preselected distance therefrom and may be pivoted from a horizontal, essentially operating position and a vertical position for maintenance. The belt is supported by rollers, one of which is adjustable for rightening the belt and to compensate for variations in the belt's longitudinal dimensions.

Abstract: To control thread pull-off, particularly in high-speed industrial sewing machines, a rotatable element such as a roller pin is engaged with the bobbin, typically with the outside flange of the bobbin. The pin is rotated, upon spinning of the bobbin, and restrained from free rotation by a spring bearing against the pin. Preferably, the pin is formed with drum or bell-shaped ends, the spring being similar to a bobbin case retaining spring and bearing against a reduced diameter thereof, to provide for different diameters of engaging rotating surfaces between flange and pin, as well as between the flange engaging surface and the spring engaging pin.
