Patent number: 6215654Abstract: A switchgear assembly in which a number of cells housing electrical switching apparatus such as circuit breakers are vertically stacked in a forward compartment has combined arc shield/wire trays between cells for terminating secondary wiring for easy access through front doors on the switchgear assembly and for protecting the secondary wiring from circuit breaker arc gases. The arc gases are deflected by an upwardly and rearwardly inclined panel forming the back wall of the wire tray. A vertical wall forward of the inclined panel mounts a lower horizontal row of terminal blocks forward of an upper row. A wireway has a vertical section in a forward corner of the cabinet beside the vertically stacked cells which communicates with the wire trays, and a horizontal section extending rearward under the top wall of the cabinet. An inclined gutter provides a transition between the top of the vertical section and the forward end of the horizontal section.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 1999Date of Patent: April 10, 2001Assignee: Eaton CorporationInventors: William Edward Wilkie, II, Douglas Kim Frantz, Neal Edward Rowe, John Bartholomew

Patent number: 6176747Abstract: A terminal block has a molded electrically insulative housing with through compartments containing terminal members each having a rectangular planar front section with a tapped hole for a terminal screw and three male terminal blades extending rearward from edges of the rectangular planar front section. The rectangular front section seats on ledges formed by bands integrally molded on opposing side walls of the compartments. Barbs projecting laterally from two facing male terminal blades engage the molded bands to secure the terminal member in the compartment. Partitions extending transversely between the front openings of the compartments provide electrical isolation between the screw terminals, and extend laterally beyond the molded body of the housing at both ends of the partitions to form mounting shoulders, which together with shoulders on projections molded on the housing body, secure the terminal block in an opening in a mounting panel.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 1998Date of Patent: January 23, 2001Assignees: Eaton Corporation, Cooper Technologies CompanyInventors: Neal Edward Rowe, Robert Lewis Newton, Jr.

Patent number: 6169248Abstract: The cross buses extending through side-by-side cabinets in a switchgear assembly are mounted on the metal cabinet frames by supports having a molded body with a bus bar mounting surface laterally spaced from a support mounting surface to form a gap between the bus bar and the metal frame. A planar barrier inserted between the cabinets has a cutout aligned with this gap. The molded support further has a barrier surface which extends across the gap and blocks the cutout. The barrier surfaces of supports mounted on side-by-side cabinets abut and parallel flanges on the molded bodies adjacent the barrier surfaces form grooves in which the planar barrier is clamped.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 1998Date of Patent: January 2, 2001Assignee: Eaton CorporationInventors: Neal Edward Rowe, William Edward Wilkie, II, Steven Dale Walker, John Stewart Bartholomew

Patent number: 6111745Abstract: The interface conductors, stabs and runbacks, which are engaged at first ends by quick disconnects on electrical apparatus in a switchgear assembly, are fabricated from a stacked pair of elongated, flat conductors secured together at the first ends by elongated fasteners which are compressed into countersunk through apertures in the flat conductors to form a joint with no lateral projections. The interface conductors are supported adjacent the disconnects by a first support having a base member with through openings in which the conductors are snugly supported, and rigid projections with planar surfaces extending from the base member toward the quick disconnects alongside the openings and against which the interface conductors are secured adjacent free ends of the projections. A second support spaced rearward of the first support provides additional support for the runbacks. Interphase supports formed by C-channels are provided for the runbacks between the first and second supports.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 1998Date of Patent: August 29, 2000Assignee: Eaton CorporationInventors: William Edward Wilkie, II, Rodney William Bruner, Neal Edward Rowe, Steven Dale Walker

Patent number: 6039612Abstract: A flexible arrangement for providing secondary terminations, such as for switchgear in electric power distribution systems, includes a plurality of molded blocks each having at least one pair of oppositely directed hooks extending from a rear face. The hooks pass through complimentary notches in a mounting slot in a mounting panel, and engage the mounting panel with the molded blocks displaced along the mounting slot so that the hooks are out of registration with the notches. A locking member blocks the realignment of the hooks with the notches. Molded filler blocks without the terminal members can be substituted for one or more molded terminal blocks when fewer terminations are needed. There filler blocks have hand grips such as preferably a longitudinal rib molded on a front face, for inserting and removing the filler block from the slot.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 1999Date of Patent: March 21, 2000Assignee: Eaton CorporationInventors: Jack L. Brown, Rodney William Bruner, Neal Edward Rowe, William Edward Wilkie, II, Robert Yanniello

Patent number: 5994989Abstract: An electrical shorting block has a molded body with a plurality of side-by-side recesses in which terminal members having first, tapped apertures are secured. A shorting bar supported in the molded body extends across but is spaced from the terminal numbers and has second apertures aligned with the first apertures. For the hot side terminal members, shorting connectors slidable through but captured by the apertures in the shorting bar have threaded ends which can be selectively threaded into the tapped first apertures of those terminal members. Helical compression springs bias the captured shorting connectors away from the terminal members when not used to short the terminal. Common terminal members are connected to the shorting bar by shorting screws which remain threaded into the first apertures. The terminal members preferably have both screw terminations and male fast-on terminations.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 1998Date of Patent: November 30, 1999Assignee: Eaton CorporationInventors: Neal Edward Rowe, Robert Lewis Newton, Jr.

Patent number: 5863562Abstract: A container, composition and method for preserving treatment solutions, in which the composition includes weak and strong preservatives. The dispensing container includes media within a dispensing tip which media removes or alters the strong preservative, while allowing the weak preservative to inhibit microbial growth in the tip media. The dispensing container is especially useful in delivering to the ocular environment ophthalmic solutions which are essentially free of strong preservative which may cause patient discomfort. A dispensing container including a pH-preserved pilocarpine solution is disclosed in one embodiment.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 1996Date of Patent: January 26, 1999Assignee: CIBA Vision CorporationInventors: Fu-Pao Tsao, Stephen Merritt Martin, Harold Shlevin, Thomas Edward Rowe

Patent number: 5773673Abstract: Disclosed is a method of making chlorinated hydrocarbons. A mixture is prepared of a hydrocarbon or partially chlorinated hydrocarbon from C.sub.18 to C.sub.30 and either benzotrifluoride or parachlorobenzotrifluoride in an amount sufficient to liquefy the mixture at the chlorination temperature. The mixture is heated to a temperature of about 50.degree. to 100.degree. C. and sufficient chlorine gas is passed therethrough in the presence of UV light to form a chlorinated hydrocarbon that is about 60 to about 80 wt. % chlorine. One part by weight of the composition is added to at least two parts by weight per part of a C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 monohydric alcohol, which results in the precipitation of the chlorinated hydrocarbon. The precipitated chlorinated hydrocarbon can be removed from the composition by, for example, filtration.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1997Date of Patent: June 30, 1998Assignee: Occidental Chemical CorporationInventors: Pravin M.
