  • Patent number: 4716208
    Abstract: Polymers containing by weight (i) from about 50 to about 85 parts of units derived from at least one monomer (FM) having the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.f is straight or branched-chain perfluoroalkyl containing 4-20 carbons;R is H or CH.sub.3 ; andn is an integer from 1-15;and (ii) from about 50 to about 15 parts of units derived from 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate and/or acrylate (CHPM/A) or their bromo analogs. Preferably, the polymers contain by weight between 65 and 75 parts of units derived from FM and 35-25 parts of units derived form CHPM/A, particularly a copolymer consisting essentially by weight of 75 percent of a mixture of FM and 25 percent of CHPM. Polymers impart superior oil- and water-repellency and anti-soiling characteristics to fibrous substrates, and may be applied as a spin finish, particularly to nylon filaments.

  • Patent number: 4715825
    Abstract: A pierce contact element for a connector with a housing in which the end of a cable with one or more insulated conductors is inserted. The pierce contact has a pointed part intended to pierce into an insulated conductor and a contact crown intended to make contact with the contact strip or contact wire of a matching connector housing. The contact crown is shaped so that its radius of curvature is larger than half the width of the contact crown in order to reduce wear on the surface contacting the strip or wire of the matching connector. In one embodiment, pierce contact is designed so that its pointed part pierces in the longitudinal direction into the end face of the conductor.

  • Patent number: 4715551
    Abstract: A self-locking chuck which can clamp the hollow core of a bobbin to a rotor has two nuts which mate with externally threaded sections of the rotor and have threads inclined in opposite directions or threads of different pitch so that they move axially toward or away from each other in response to joint rotation relative to the rotor or vice versa. The nuts are surrounded by two or more axially parallel torque transmitting segments whose external surfaces are movable into torque-transmitting engagement with the internal surface of a core in response to joint rotation of the nuts relative to the rotor. To this end, the inner sides of the segments are provided with a first set of cam faces and the outer sides of the nuts are provided with a second set of cam faces which cooperate with the cam faces of the segments to move the segments radially outwardly in response to joint rotation of the nuts relative to the rotor.

  • Patent number: 4714745
    Abstract: A hydroxy functional epoxy-polyester graft copolymer and solvent-based thermosetting coating composition comprising said copolymer and polyfunctional, hydroxy-reactive crosslinking agent. The coating composition may be formulated as hot sprayable, high solids coating composition suitable for use as chip resistant automotive vehicle primer suitable for use on body panel areas subject to chipping by stones, gravel and other road debris. The composition also may be formulated as a high solids composition sprayable with conventional spraying equipment. The hydroxy functional epoxy-polyester graft copolymer is the product of polymerization of lactone monomers in presence of hydroxy functional epoxy ester resin precursor. The precursor resin is the product of modified diepoxide and hydroxy functional secondary amine, the modified diepoxide being the product of the polymerization of lactone monomers in the presence of diepoxide which has been chain extended with dicarboxylic acid.
