  • Patent number: 6357664
    Abstract: The present invention provides an improved identification card having an integrated circuit. The identification card has a first outer layer having printed material on an outer surface and a second outer layer positioned between a laminated sleeve. The second outer layer has an integrated circuit and an antenna on an inner surface and printed material on an outer surface. The first outer layer may be optionally printed at a customer location and inserted into a subassembly having the second outer layer and an inner blocking layer positioned in the sleeve prior to final lamination.

  • Patent number: 6354874
    Abstract: The component for mounting on a circuit board (LP) has a plurality of electrical terminal members (2) to be soldered to the circuit board (LP), and a shielding member (3) enclosing at least the electrical terminal members (2). The component described is characterized in that the shielding member (3) and the electrical terminal members (2) are movable relative to each other. The effect achievable thereby is that the shielding member (3) cannot impair mounting of the component concerned on the circuit board (LP).

  • Patent number: 6234303
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a conveyor assembly for use in conveying a load from a first device or member to a second device or member. The conveyor assembly has a frame with a pair of frame support members spaced from each other in an essentially parallel manner. A pair of belts are provided proximate the frame support members, with each belt having a wide portion and a narrow portion. The wide portions of the belts cooperate with surfaces of the frame support members when the belts are in a first position. The wide portions of the belt cooperate with a container such that as the belt is moved from the first position to the second position, the container is moved accordingly. The narrow portion allows a transport assembly to be moved into and out of the conveyor assembly, whereby the configuration of the belt allows the conveyor assembly to be used for containers which are more narrow than the transport assembly, thereby effectively providing the transport assembly with an effectively smaller width.
