Patent number: 11404234Abstract: A fuse assembly including a fuse connected to two busbars, an injection molded base and an injection molded cover. The busbars are powder-coating with a powder-based adhesive or adhesion promoter, then cured in an oven. The busbars are then placed in the cavity image of an injection molding apparatus. Plastic is heated to a liquid form and injected into the cavity image. The resulting injection molded base is resistant to both dust and water, protecting the fuse inside.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2020Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: Littelfuse, Inc.Inventors: Michael Skrzypczak, Keith Jozwik

Patent number: 9559459Abstract: An inline multi-pin connector includes cylindrical male and female connector members which are electrically connected together by pushing the two members together end-to-end. Either the male or the female connector member has a metal cylinder disposed about its conductive pins or sockets, which are adapted for mutual engagement, while the other connector member is provided with inner threads. The metal cylinder includes plural resilient, spaced arms, or tabs, disposed about its outer periphery and urged radially outward and into engagement with the other member's threads to connect the two connector members. Coaxial seals are disposed between and in contact with the two members as is a compressible O-ring seal.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2015Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: Woodhead Industries, Inc.Inventors: Keith A. Jozwik, Joseph F. Murphy

Patent number: 8920184Abstract: A high strength electrical connector includes an outer cylindrical, rigid support cover open at both ends and preferably comprised of a high strength metal. A first electrical lead extends through a tension bushing attached to one end of the support cover. A mating receptacle through which a second electrical lead passes is securely attached to a second opposed end of the support cover. Electrical connection between the ends of the first and second electrical leads is established within the support cover. Securely attaching the ends of the first and second electrical leads together within the support cover, which is preferably comprised of a high strength metal, directs axial and transverse forces exerted on the first electrical lead through the support cover, thus bypassing the electrical connection.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2010Date of Patent: December 30, 2014Assignee: Woodhead Industries, Inc.Inventors: Joseph Murphy, Lucas Hartmann, Randall G. Stone, Keith Jozwik
