  • Publication number: 20060011376
    Abstract: A multi-axial electrically conductive cable having a multi-layered core. The multi-layered core comprises one layer of insulating dielectric material and at least one additional layer of insulating dielectric material. The multiple layers of the core are separable and allow the multi-axial electrically conductive cable to be utilized in several electrical connections of varying impedances and different sized connections.

  • Patent number: 5351388
    Abstract: A sensor has a metal case with a sensing coil at one end and a shielded cable extending from the other. In one use it is placed in proximity to rotating machinery to sense imbalance by position change of the shaft. A pair of suitably sized metal cylinders which are precisely interlocked by dielectric material provides for firm mechanical and electrical connections to the inner and outer conductors of the associated shielded cable. In addition a four step injection molding process provides for accurate and secure location of the sensing coil. And at the same time the entire structure because of the injection molding and associated seals is moisture proof. Other uses include temperature and velocity sensing.In an alternative embodiment only a two-step injection molding process is utilized with a somewhat simplified procedure.
