Publication number: 20220341852Abstract: A portable visual inspection apparatus comprises a box including a lower box portion and an upper box portion. The upper box portion defines a first accommodation space and is connected to the lower box portion such that is capable of being opened and closed. A visual inspection device is installed in the first accommodation space and is adapted to be switched between an expanded configuration in which the visual inspection device is at least partially expanded for photographing an image of an article, and a folded configuration in which the visual inspection device is at least partially folded for storage in the first accommodation space. A support platform is arranged in the lower box portion and defines an inspection area below the visual inspection device in the expanded configuration. The portable visual inspection apparatus is switchable between a use configuration and a transportation configuration.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 25, 2022Publication date: October 27, 2022Applicants: Tyco Electronics (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., TE Connectivity Services GmbHInventors: Lei (Alex) Zhou, Qing (Carrie) Zhou, Yun (Shanghai) Liu, Huabin Du, Mark Andrew Ondo, Matthew Orlowski, Sonny O.

Patent number: 10637163Abstract: A splice terminal for connecting a magnet wire to a lead wire. The splice terminal includes a first closed section and a second open section. The first closed section has a first section bottom wall, first section side walls and a first section top wall. An opening is provided between the first section bottom wall, the first section side walls and the first section top wall. The opening is configured to receive the magnet wire therein. The opening has a height between the first section bottom wall and the first section top wall which is larger than the diameter of the magnet wire. The second open section has a second section bottom wall and second section side walls. The second section is configured to receive the magnet wire and the lead wire therein.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2019Date of Patent: April 28, 2020Assignee: TE CONNECTIVITY CORPORATIONInventors: John Michael Wasilko, Mark Andrew Ondo
