  • Patent number: 10967537
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a circular saw, in particular a hand-held circular saw, having a housing and a drive unit, at least some sections of which are arranged in the housing and with which a tool holder for an exchangeable saw blade is associated. The drive unit is designed to rotationally drive the exchangeable saw blade about an associated axis of rotation. In the circular saw, a blade guard is associated with the exchangeable saw blade. The blade guard is mounted in the housing for rotation about the associated axis of rotation and extends around a cutting point of the exchangeable saw blade at least during a sawing operation in such a way that contact with the cutting point can be at least substantially prevented.

  • Patent number: 10350362
    Abstract: An automatic medication injection device (20) including injecting progress indicators (82-85) visible along a periphery of the device housing (23). The injecting progress indicators include a flag element (100) which is movable as a drive mechanism (60) of the device advances a sealing plunger (58) within a container of medication (50). The injecting progress indicators are configured to indicate sequentially during a single injection as the flag element moves to cooperatively complete different injecting progress indicators at different times during the single injection, whereby injecting progress of the injection may be monitored by a user.

  • Patent number: 9377054
    Abstract: A fluid seal for sealing a gap region for rolling elements rotationally connecting a shaft and an outer structure of a rotating assembly. In embodiments described, the fluid seal includes an inner capillary seal and an outer capillary seal radially and axially spaced from the inner capillary seal. The inner and outer capillary seals are formed along a passageway having an axial portion and a radial portion formed along capillary surfaces of a fluid seal structure and opposed transverse and upright surfaces. In embodiments disclosed, the fluid seal structure includes a seal ring and cap or a seal plate structure. In another embodiment, a flange portion of the shaft forms the fluid seal structure.

  • Patent number: 7476124
    Abstract: An apparatus which establishes an electrical feedthrough for a substrate, such as a housing wall of a data storage device enclosure. A one-piece dielectric body has a base portion configured for support adjacent the substrate, a first projection extending from the base portion through an aperture of the substrate, and a second projection extending from the base portion opposite the first projection. At least one, and preferably a plurality of, electrically conductive traces are plated onto the dielectric body. The trace(s) continuously extend along the first projection, the base portion and the second projection. The dielectric body is preferably formed of a plateable plastic, and the trace(s) are preferably formed thereon using a suitable metallization process. A flex circuit comprising a substantially rectangular, flexible dielectric ribbon preferably attaches to the second projection to establish an electrical communication path with a component interior to the substrate, such as an actuator.

  • Patent number: 7271345
    Abstract: The present invention includes a method and apparatus for attenuating flexible circuit resonance. The apparatus includes a flexible circuit assembly. The flexible circuit assembly has a flexible circuit having a flexible cable with first and second sides. The flexible circuit assembly also includes a circuit support. The circuit support includes a base having top and bottom surfaces. The bottom surface is attached to the first side of the flexible cable. The circuit support also includes a support wall extending substantially perpendicularly relative to the top surface of the base. The support wall has a first face, which is substantially oriented towards the top surface of the base. The first side of the flexible cable is attached to the first face and also faces a second face of the support wall to thereby reverse a direction in which the flexible cable faces.
