  • Patent number: 4695923
    Abstract: A bolt-on configuration of a power distribution system utilizes an apparatus which connects a first element to a second element, the second element having a hole, such that a minimum predetermined force exists at the connection between the first element and the second element. The apparatus comprises a shaft, having a first, second, and third diameter along the axis of the shaft, thereby forming a first, second, and third shaft, respectively, the first diameter being the smallest diameter and the third diameter being the largest diameter. The first shaft is threaded, for mating with the second element. A spring, having an inside diameter smaller than the diameter of the third shaft and having a length approximately equal to the length of the first and second shaft is coaxially positioned over the first and second shaft.

  • Patent number: 4662067
    Abstract: A connector for providing electrical connections for a coax cable harness, the coax cable harness including a plurality of coax cables, each coax cable having a wire encased in a dielectric and having a drain wire. The connector comprises an insulation displacement connector having a plurality of insulation displacement contacts set in a top surface of the insulation displacement connector. Each insulation displacement contact engages a corresponding wire encased in the dielectric, the insulation displacement contact piercing the dielectric thereby providing the electrical connection for the wire of the coax cable. An orientation bar positions the coax cables to be in line with the corresponding insulation displacement contact, the coax cables resting on a top surface of the orientation bar. The orientation bar is positioned next to the insulation displacement connector such that a side surface of the insulation displacement connector is in contact or nearly in contact with the orientation bar.
