  • Publication number: 20030223723
    Abstract: An enclosure for use in a cable management system includes an outer shell having a generally rectangular shape and defining an interior space, the outer shell including a bottom panel, a top panel and first and second sidewalls. A first reversible mounting bracket is provided for connection to the bottom panel, and a second mounting bracket is provided for connection to the top panel. The first and second mounting brackets can include means for supporting cable management devices. The mounting brackets can each include a generally L-shaped member having a first portion positioned adjacent to the top or bottom panel, and a second section positioned substantially perpendicular to the top or bottom panel. The means for supporting cable management devices can include a master plate that can be mounted between the brackets. The master plate can define one or more openings for attachment of the cable management devices.

  • Patent number: 6515227
    Abstract: An enclosure for use in a cable management system includes an outer shell having a generally rectangular shape and defining an interior space. The outer shell includes a bottom wall and a sidewall, with the sidewall defining a sidewall opening for access to the interior space. The bottom wall includes a curved portion adjacent to a first edge. A tray positioned within the interior of the enclosure includes a curved portion positioned adjacent to a first edge of the tray. The first edge of the bottom wall and the first edge of the tray are positioned adjacent to each other such that the curved portion of the bottom wall and the curved portion of the tray together form a first radius control structure positioned adjacent to the sidewall opening.

  • Patent number: 4576832
    Abstract: A process for forming a self-aligned resist mask over a surface of an alumina ceramic substrate having a conductive molybdenum pattern at said surface by first blanket coating the surface with a negative resist sensitive to aluminum emitting X-rays. A blanket dosing of the substrate with resist insensitive X-rays occurs to induce X-ray emission by the aluminum of said substrate to penetrate said resist. The aluminum X-ray emission is screened by said molybdenum pattern at the surface and the resist adjacent the surface molybdenum pattern is penetrated by the aluminum X-ray emission. The resist is developed for removal thereof over the molybdenum pattern while retaining the resist doped by said aluminum X-ray emission. Further metalization can be accomplished by evaporation or sputtering to blanket coat the developed resist with a conductive metal followed by removal of the resist with the metal coating thereon such that the metal coating is retained on the molybdenum pattern.
