Patent number: 6718828Abstract: Described is a sensing device, which is suspended in a filling material, particularly a liquid, by means of a cable 30. The cable 30 consists of a cable jacket of insulating material, a shielding jacket 32 of metal mesh beneath the cable jacket 31, and the electrical conductors connected to the sensor proper 11. In accordance with the invention, the shielding jacket 32 also serves to relieve pull. To this end, the end 33 that projects into the sensor housing 10 is exposed, i.e., is free of the insulating jacket material, and has a solid mechanical connection to the adapting piece 21 of a cable seat 20 inserted into the housing 10, and the connection is electrically conductive.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2002Date of Patent: April 13, 2004Assignee: Vega Grieshaber KGInventors: Thomas Kopp, Hermann Dieterle, Ewald Bohler

Patent number: 5255304Abstract: In a cassette loading and unloading apparatus, a device is provided for centering X-ray film cassettes of various sizes, which can be transported on rollers (19), by means of two parallel bars (16, 17) movable towards and away from each other, respectively. The bars (16, 17) have U-shaped recesses (16a, 17a) for passage of rollers (19). Of the lugs of bars (16, 17) formed by the recesses and projecting through the rollers, one lug (16b, 17b) of each bar (16, 17) is slidably guided on a guide rail (14) extending below rollers (19). Moreover, a second lug (16f, 17f) of each bar (16, 17) is in engagement with a driving mechanism (30, 34, 38, 45). The rollers (19), the guide rail (14) and the bars (16, 17) are arranged on the upper side of support plate (10), and the driving mechanism (30, 34, 38, 45) is provided on the lower side of that plate. They jointly form a prefinished assembly unit. FIGS. 1 and 2 are to be published.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1991Date of Patent: October 19, 1993Assignee: Eastman Kodak CompanyInventors: Friedrich Uffinger, Hermann Dieterle

Patent number: 4706370Abstract: In a cutting and mounting apparatus for cutting a film section (9) which can be lowered into a slide mount (10) positioned below a cutting tool (5) in a slider (7), and which upon withdrawal of slider (7) can be snapped into the slide mount (10) while resting agaisnt a guiding jaw (2a), a component (12), shiftably guided on the slider (7), is designed as a U-shaped resilient clamp enclosing the rear area of the slider (7). The component (12) comprises guiding elements (12b) which point in the direction of movement of the slider (7), and are formed by tongues pointing upwardly at an angle, seizing the rear edge of a bent film section (9) when the slider (7) has been partly extended, and deflecting said rear edge so that it snaps into the groove-shaped recess in the rear frame portion (10b) of slide mount (10).Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 1986Date of Patent: November 17, 1987Assignee: Eastman Kodak CompanyInventors: Dietmar Blattner, Hermann Dieterle, Manfred Leutwein, Horst Simon

Patent number: 4698883Abstract: In a cutting and mounting apparatus for cutting a film section (9) which can be lowered into a slide mount (10) positioned below a cutting tool (5) in a slider (7), and which upon withdrawal of slider (7) can be snapped into the slide mount (10) while resting against a guiding jaw (2a), said guiding jaw (2a) forms part of a cover plate (2) serving for supporting a cutting plate (3) and covering the guide channel (1a) of slider (7). The slide mount (10) is urged against the stationary guiding jaw (2a) free from play by means of a leaf spring (8) extending below the slider (7). During this operation, the front edge of the film section (9) abuts against an offset abutment edge (2e) of the guiding jaw (2a) so that the film section (9) is slid into a rear slot of the slide mount (10), is bent and snaps into a front slot in the slide mount (10).Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 1986Date of Patent: October 13, 1987Assignee: Eastman Kodak CompanyInventors: Dietmar Blattner, Hermann Dieterle, Manfred Leutwein, Horst Simon
