  • Publication number: 20230046856
    Abstract: An enclosure for electrical installations includes a bottom and a cover fastened to the bottom by a fastening device including a latch which, supported by a bearing, is turnable in relation to the bottom to open/close the fastening device. An arm is bearing-mounted to the latch. The cover has a detent to receive the arm and to fasten the cover to the bottom by the arm. The detent is located in a recess formed in an edge of the cover. Attached to the arm there is a cover piece to attach to the detent in the recess of the cover. The cover piece includes first and second outer surfaces which at the recess of the cover make the outer surfaces of the cover uniform, such that the discontinuities formed by the recess of the cover on its top and side surfaces are concealed.

  • Patent number: 11005760
    Abstract: An approach is provided that selects a geographic location to which transmission of a data packet is disallowed. The approach identifies disallowed network devices that reside in the selected geographic location and builds a routing path through a public computer network through an allowed set of network devices with the allowed set of network devices not including any of the disallowed network devices. The approach then transmits the data packet from a transmitting network device to a receiving network device using the routing path.

  • Patent number: 9807904
    Abstract: A mounting frame for an electronics and instrumentation enclosure includes two elongated supports joined by an elongated piece and four corner parts fastened to the ends of the elongated supports by a fastener. For the mounting frame to be easy and rapid to assemble and to mount inside the enclosure also at the mounting site, the ends of the elongated supports are provided with a locking tongue formed as one piece with the elongated support and extending away from a plane defined by the elongated supports, and through-hole for mounting are provided at the corner parts and arranged to receive the locking tongues of the elongated supports without clearance, the corner parts comprising a plural number of such mounting holes at a distance from one another in the longitudinal direction of the corner parts. An elongated support is provided for a mounting frame.

  • Patent number: 9799981
    Abstract: A small, low-profile plug connector for use with electronic devices provides a latching member with a pair of hooks that engage mating holes in a guide frame, and which can be easily disengaged from the guide frame or opposing connector or housing. The connector includes an elongated actuator interposed between the connector housing and latching member and the actuator terminates in a cylindrical cam member that is captured in a recess on the connector housing such that rearward movement of the actuator imparts a raising action to the latching member.

  • Patent number: 9596777
    Abstract: An enclosure for electrical installations includes a rectangular bottom part and a hinged door to be fastened to the bottom part. The bottom part includes sidewalls extending upward, the door being turnable from a closed position, in which it covers the door opening of the enclosure, to an open position, in which it leaves the door opening open. In order for the door to be easily and quickly fastened to the bottom part, the door is fastened to the bottom part by a detachable door frame, which door frame includes at least two quick-release mechanisms to fasten it detachably to at least two detents in the bottom part so that the door frame is locked at the detents and the bottom part when the quick-release mechanisms are in the locked position, and the door frame may be released from the bottom part when the quick-release mechanisms have been opened and released from the detents. The enclosure includes a cover which covers the door frame and the door, which cover is fastened to the bottom part.

  • Patent number: 7190288
    Abstract: Signal conversion is implemented employing a memory system operating as a look-up table that stores a plurality of sets of output samples associated with each of a plurality of respective input samples. The look-up table thus can generate a corresponding set of output samples in response to a given input sample, thereby emulating desired digital upsampling and delta-sigma modulation. The output samples can be aggregated, such as by multiplexing, to provide an output data stream at a desired sample rate.
