Abstract: A system and method for determining a residual life of a swivel. The method includes determining at least one of an angular rotation, a linear displacement and a rotational direction of at least one swivel and determining rotational count of the at least one swivel based on the determined at least one of the angular rotation, the linear displacement and the rotational direction of the at least one swivel. Further, the method includes indicating a residual life information of the at least one swivel based on the determined rotational count of the at least one swivel. Further, the embodiments herein also provide an electronic device for determining residual life of a swivel.

Abstract: A plurality of sensors measure rope depth at a plurality of locations along an axis of a winch drum for use by a control unit in determining rope defects.

Abstract: A toggle switch comprises a housing, a plurality of switches disposed within the housing, an actuating lever coupled to a pivot pin, and an actuator assembly coupled to the actuating lever. The actuating lever extends into the housing. The actuator assembly comprises an actuation pin coupled to the actuating lever, and a spring disposed about the actuating lever. The actuation pin is configured to actuate one or more of the plurality of switches, and the spring is configured to bias a cam follower into engagement with a cam profile on a bracket and bias the actuating lever into an actuation position.

Abstract: A thermostat includes a temperature sensitive element that is responsive to temperature variations to selectively move between at least a first position and a second position. The transfer pin is movable with the temperature sensitive element and is configured, upon movement of the temperature sensitive element from the first position to the second position, to supply a force to a switch that moves the switch from a first switch position to a second switch position. A spring is coupled to the switch and is configured to selectively supply at least a first retainer force to the switch that, when the switch is in the second switch position, retains the switch in the second switch position when the temperature sensitive element moves from the second position back to the first position.

Abstract: A limit switch assembly includes a housing having a first end, a second end, an inner surface that defines an inner volume and a spring engagement surface, and an outer surface. A limit switch disposed within the inner volume includes a threaded bushing section at least partially extending from the first end. A spring within the inner volume surrounds the bushing section, and engages the limit switch and the spring engagement surface. A calibration nut threaded onto the bushing section engages the first end of the housing. A seal divides the inner volume of the housing into a first volume and a second volume. A drain hole formed in the housing fluidly communicates the first volume to a surrounding environment. A terminal assembly connected to the second end of the housing seals the second volume from the surrounding environment.
