  • Patent number: 11920927
    Abstract: A position encoder comprises: a first and second member, with the first member movable relative to the second member; a first sensor arranged at one of the first or second members, and a first track arranged at the other one of the first or second members such that the first sensor moves along the first track when the first member moves relative to the second member, with the first sensor capturing at least one of its position or displacement along the first track; a second sensor arranged at one of the first or second members, and a second track arranged at the other one of the first or second members such that the second sensor moves along the second track when the first member moves relative to the second member, with the second sensor capturing at least one of its position or displacement along the second track.

  • Publication number: 20170356629
    Abstract: A fastening system for coupling an object having object openings to a base can with a flange having base can apertures. The fastening system includes a clip with an upper arm and a lower arm each extending from a spreader that separates the upper and lower arms. The clip is configured to engage the flange such that the flange is positioned between the upper and lower arms. The clip is configured to retain a nut having a nut opening with internal threads between the lower arm and the flange such that the nut opening is aligned to one of the base can apertures. A coupling system with a threaded member is configured to couple the object to the base can by extending at least through one object opening and one base can aperture, and also extending at least partially into the nut opening to engage the nut.

  • Patent number: 8063732
    Abstract: This electrical resistor structure which includes a frame (2) for receiving elements which form an electrical resistor (3) in the form of a serpentine resistive element, the folded ends of the branches of which are associated with elements (8, 9) for fixing to opposing cross-members (5, 6) of the frame, is characterised in that the fixing elements include elements which form spacing members (12) which are fixed to the cross-members of the frame and which are provided with projecting portions which are spaced-apart from each other and which together define zones for receiving, by clamping and with axial clearance, at least a part of the corresponding ends of the resistive element (3).
