  • Publication number: 20100315063
    Abstract: A meter device for checking the measurements of an electrical meter, such as that used by electrical utilities is provided. The meter device has a base with electrical phase conductors arranged to couple with a meter socket. A housing is attached to the base. Electrical connectors are arranged on the end of the phase conductors within the housing. The electrical connectors are arranged to couple with an electrical meter. One or more lead conductors is also provided. Each lead conductor has a first end coupled to the electrical connector and a second end coupled to the associated phase conductor. Each lead conductor includes a middle portion arranged outside of the housing.

  • Patent number: 7333295
    Abstract: A method and system for plating CoNiFe is disclosed. The method and system include providing a plating solution including hydroxymethyl-p-tolylsulfone and plating the CoNiFe film on a substrate in the plating solution. The plating solution is configured to provide a CoNiFe film having a high saturation magnetic flux density and having a composition of 50-70 weight percent of Fe and 3-8 weight percent of Ni. In another aspect, the method and system include plating at least a portion of a first and/or second pole of a write head using the plating solution including hydroxymethyl-p-tolylsulfone and configured to plate the CoNiFe film having a high saturation magnetic flux density and a composition of 50-70 weight percent of Fe and 3-8 weight percent of Ni.

  • Publication number: 20070047140
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a magnetic structure for writing. The magnetic structure includes a non-magnetic layer, a first magnetic layer electroplated adjacent the non-magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer electroplated adjacent the first magnetic layer, and a third magnetic layer electroplated adjacent the second magnetic layer. The first magnetic layer has a first saturation magnetization and a first coercivity. The second magnetic layer has a second saturation magnetization and a second coercivity. The third magnetic layer has a first saturation magnetization and a first coercivity.

  • Patent number: 6981301
    Abstract: A device having a first, a second, a third, and a fourth slidably adjustable element arranged in a rectangular configuration, forming a rectangular pass-through opening approximately the size of a doorway and being slidably adjustable in a height dimension and a width dimension of the rectangle and having clamps for attaching the device to a doorframe so that the doorframe can be placed within a rough opening in a wall of a building while keeping a rectangular shape. The device has telescoping feet for adjusting the height off of the floor and leveling the frame. Once the frame is attached to the rough opening in the wall the clamps are released from the frame and the elements are contracted to allow the device to be removed from the frame, leaving the frame secured and properly aligned within the rough opening.
