  • Patent number: 4765044
    Abstract: Apparatus for semiautomatic termination of conductors of a ribbon cable to electrical terminals of an electrical connector having conductor receiving cavities located on opposite sides thereof. In operation the apparatus combs and shears individual conductors of the ribbon cable. The comb means cooperates with the individual conductors adjacent the dielectric jacket of the cable, ensuring that the individual conductors will be combed and spaced as required for termination to the terminals. The shear means is retracted, leaving the comb means in contact with the conductors, maintaining the position of the conductors until the connector is brought into place. A shuttle then places the connector in engagement with the conductors. The comb means is retracted, permitting the conductors to be positioned in alignment with terminating sections of the terminals which in turn allows for insertion and crimping of the conductors to occur.

  • Patent number: 3934631
    Abstract: A clothes bag and hanger is provided for vertical suspension of the bag from a supporting member. The hanger comprises a closed loop frame formed with a circumferential channel which opens radially outward. A hook-form hanger element is also formed with the frame for engagement with a support member. The clothes bag includes elongated front and rear wall panels of fabric sewn to form an open topped receptacle with the rear panel of greater length than the front panel resulting in the opening being in the plane of the panels and facing sideways. A drawstring sewn into a peripheral loop extending around the opening is utilized to secure the bag in the channel of the hanger from which the bag is then vertically suspended. A pleat formed in and extending longitudinally of the rear wall panel provides cross-sectional area expansion of the bag.
