Abstract: An electrical cable connector for use with a shielded conductor cable. A eaded coupling means is provided with a plurality of electrical contact elements and a threaded cylindrical extender has one end threaded thereto. A cylindrical adapter is connected with the braided shield of a cable and the conductors pass through a bore in the cylindrical adapter and are connected to the electrical contacts. The cylindrical adapter is threaded with the cylindrical extender. In case of repair, the cylindrical extender can be unthreaded from the coupling means and the cylindrical adapter to permit access to the solder joints between the electrical contacts and the conductors.

Abstract: A brake system for a cart having at least two non-pivotal wheels. A pair of heels are fixedly mounted on a rotatable axle which has a pair of hubs keyed thereto. A brake disc is associated with each hub and is restrained from rotation but is movable relative to the longitudinal axis of the axle. A brake element is provided for each disc and has a movable shoe and a fixed shoe so that, upon actuation of the brake element, the movable shoe engages one side of the disk and moves the disk into contact with the fixed shoe. The brake element is normally in a locked or braking condition and is unlocked by hydraulic means. Both brake elements are operated by a single control unit.

Abstract: A method of making a resilient storage insert for holding fragile compone comprising the steps of first vacuum forming a sheet of flexible acrylonitrile butadiene styrene in a male die and then placing said vacuum-formed sheet in a female die, then filling the underside of said vacuum-formed sheet with polyurethane foam material and then curing said polyurethane foam material.
