    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a conductive housing having a mating end and a mounting end mounted to a circuit board. The conductive housing provides electrical shielding around pockets and includes ground pads at the mounting end configured to be terminated to the circuit board. The electrical connector includes contact assemblies held by the conductive housing each having a contact holder holding at least one contact. The contact holder is received in the corresponding pocket of the conductive housing to position the at least one contact relative to the conductive housing. Each contact includes a mating end and a terminating end coupled to a signal pad of the circuit board. The conductive housing provides circumferential shielding around each contact assembly between the contact holder and the circuit board.

  • Publication number: 20090327154
    Abstract: The present invention provides systems, methods, and computer program products for monitoring collateral positions of public-deposit accounts so as to efficiently pledge collateral to under-collateralized positions and release collateral from over-collateralized positions. For example, when a customer deposits additional funds, which results in an uninsured balance that exceeds the allocated collateral, the present invention may identify that account as being under-collateralized, determine the pledge amount required to properly collateralize the account, and then create, submit and track a pledge request that corresponds to the required pledge amount.

  • Patent number: 6412878
    Abstract: The invention is a simple, inexpensive, disposable wheel shield suitable for protecting an automobile wheel during the application of a tire cleaner or dressing. The diameter of the shield may be adjusted by removing one or more of the five outer perforated concentric circles. A perforated circle in the center of the shield may be removed to accommodate a protruding four-wheel-drive front axle. The shield is held in place against the wheel by holding a push-out tab with one hand while applying cleaner to the tire with the other hand.
