Abstract: A removable grip for an ultrasound probe. The grip may be an integrated or unitary hand-held device having a circular or C-shaped cross-section that, when located at a predetermined operative position on the probe, removably surrounds a substantial portion of the probe to provide an exterior shape and size optimal for a desired application. The probe is generally an elongated instrument having proximal and distal ends and an external casing that is grasped by a sonographer. An ultrasound transducer is generally disposed at the distal end and a cord for transferring data and power typically extends from the proximal end of the probe. The grip includes proximal and distal ends and, in one disclosed aspect, a channel for receiving the cord. The channel is defined by opposing edges of the grip that longitudinally extend between the proximal and distal ends. The channel extends through the grip from an exterior surface to an interior surface of the grip.

Abstract: The outer surfaces of adjoining electrical busway side frames are shaped to define a protruding rail extending along the vertical axis thereof. A pair of recessed channels formed within the inner surfaces of the side frames of an intervening busway joint receive the busway rails at opposing ends thereof. Clearance arranged within the respective busway joint channels allows lateral movement of the busway side frames relative to the busway joint. Slots are provided on the busway joint side frames for visual indication of the position of the busway rails.

Abstract: A thermally efficient joint for electrical power distribution busway electrically connects between adjacent busway sections. Each busway joint includes a modular assembly containing spaced metallic splice plates separated by corresponding insulating plates. The module is sandwiched between a pair of joint covers by means of an insulated thru-bolt. The spacing between the splice joint for receiving corresponding busway stabs is accurately set by an apertured depression stamped within each of the splice plates.
