Abstract: An improved ignition distributor breaker contact point set is provided which includes an electrically conductive plate member including a first breaker contact in electrical contact with the plate member; an electrically conductive, pivotably mounted breaker arm having at one end thereof a second breaker contact, the breaker arm being spring loaded by affixation to an electrically conductive leaf spring; and a condensor having a first electrically conductive terminal in electrical contact with said plate member and a second electrically conductive terminal which is insulated from said plate member. An electrically conductive, elongated support strap is provided, said support member spanning directly between and physically and electrically connecting the second electrically conducting terminal of the condensor and the leaf spring art.
Abstract: An electro-optic detector utilizes a trigger circuit to sense the presense of a fluid medium and produce a control signal at a predetermined time after the fluid medium is detected.
Abstract: An automatic release assembly for a two-piece harness connector is provided with an electro-optic trigger responsive to a liquid environment. A rotatable locking shaft is forcibly rotated to unlock position by actuation of a force generating device integrated into the two-piece harness connector.
