  • Patent number: 7001184
    Abstract: A slip ring assembly for allowing electrical or electronic signal transfer between a stationary device and a rotating device includes a ring assembly and a brush assembly. The ring assembly comprises a plurality of assembled rings and spacers of selected widths positioned on a longitudinal tube having a slot and a hollow center. The tube may be provided with one or more bearings to allow the tube to be smoothly rotatable in a housing. A plurality of brushes unitarily formed with a plurality of connector pins are held by a brush holder which is removably received in the housing. The connector pins are configured to receive a standard male or female connector. The housing is typically incorporated into a body of a stationary device, and the tube may be attached to or incorporated into a rotating component of an electronic or electrical device.

  • Patent number: 6739044
    Abstract: A method of tinning one or more electrical terminals by hot solder dipping is disclosed herein. The process generally involves placing a solder resistant material in a through hole formed in an electrical terminal, and then dipping at least a portion of the terminal into a hot solder. The solder resistant material may include, for example, a titanium or stainless steel wire, and the solder may be a tin-lead solder such as Sn63.
