Abstract: An electrical connector adapted for portable power distribution systems and other applications in various embodiments includes a versatile lug which may be selectively and repeatedly coupled to a stranded or other conductor and mounted and re-mounted on a bus bar or other mounting surface via a variety of attachment features on the lug. The lug offers numerous ways to attach it to a power bus and is designed for thousands of installations and re-installations each requiring the appropriate torque on the connector rather than a few such installations for which a known connector is designed and rated. The attachment features included in various embodiments of the lug connector allow for horizontal, vertical, side by side and edge clamping among other mounting configurations.

Abstract: A fail safe temperature control device which consists of a nonelastic container or bulb adapted to be subjected to temperature changes, a capillary tube and a pressure responsive device. The container generally is located in the area in which the heat is to be controlled, typically an oven or other heated area. The capillary tube is connected to the container at a first end and to the pressure responsive device at a second end. The nonelastic container, capillary tube and pressure responsive device form a closed system which is filled with a thermally responsive material. The pressure responsive device operates a control device, typically consisting of a normally closed contact and a normally open contact.

Abstract: A fail safe device for use in conjunction with a temperature sensing bulb, capillary, and control device in an oven or other heating appliance, which fail safe device will prevent a failure of the basic control device from permitting a critical overheat condition to occur in the controlled area.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to apparatus wherein a change in temperature is transmitted from a sensing bulb through a capillary to a control device. More particularly this invention is related to a novel, fail safe device for use in conjunction with a temperature sensing bulb, capillary, and control device in an oven or other heating appliance.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to thermal control apparatus wherein a change in temperature is transmitted from a sensing bulb through a capillary to a control device. More particularly this invention is related to a novel, fail-safe control device for use in conjunction with a temperature sensing bulb, capillary, and control device in an oven or other heating facility whereby a loss of pressure within the bulb, capillary, control device system will cause the heating device to be shut off and thus will prevent the oven or other heating facility from being overheated.
