Abstract: A method for producing an electrical bond between a contact element of an electrical connector and a conductor, the contact element having a portion that is bifurcated such that the conductor is positioned between the furcations, the method comprising the steps of (a) providing a system comprising a power source and a weld head, the weld head having a first input and a second input for connection to a first polarity output and a second polarity output, respectively, of the power source, the system further including first and second electrodes movably attached to the weld head and electrically connected to the first and second inputs, respectively, (b) positioning the electrodes on the weld head to create a space between the electrodes that is sized for receiving both furcations of each contact element, (c) moving the weld head toward the furcations to effect contact between the first electrode and one of the furcations and between the second electrode and the other furcation, the contact being made at a prede

Abstract: A helical resiliently extensible and retractable multiconductor coil cord including a plurality of conductor components enclosed within an outer jacket. One of the conductor components includes a metallic conductor centrally disposed within and surrounded by a first dielectric material which in turn is centrally disposed within and surrounded by a metallic shield covered by an inner jacket. The other conductor components each include a metallic conductor covered by a second dielectric material. In one embodiment the metallic shield includes a plurality of sets of wires helically wrapped around the dielectric material in mutually opposing directions, at least one of the sets of wires being wrapped around the dielectric material at an angle of less than about 20 degrees with respect to the axis of the conductor.
Abstract: Production of an activated type alumina from aluminum dross by digestion with water, preferably pressurized. The peculiar properties associated with trace compounds present in the product make it useful for the recovery of noxious effluents from furnacing processes, including those burning fossil fuels and those used for smelting both aluminum and steel, wherein the alumina beneficially incorporates in the metallurgical flux.
