  • Publication number: 20040207992
    Abstract: An electrical system comprises an electrical circuit board for mounting electrical components and a circuit board sub-rack. The board includes a pivotally mounted ejector member which pivots to insert and eject the board from the sub-rack. The ejector member carries two grounding contact surfaces for engagement with the ground plane of the board and chassis area of the sub-rack when the ejector member is pivoted to its closed position. The contact surface of the ejector member mates with the board to frictionally hold the board in fully inserted position. The ejector member also includes a retaining arm which mates with the sub-rack for providing an insertion or ejection force to facilitate insertion or ejection of the board relative to the sub-rack.

  • Patent number: 6302700
    Abstract: A circuit board defining a flange is used to interconnect conductors located on the flange with corresponding conductors of a conventional connector. The flange includes a key slot and two flange slots which promote alignment between the circuit board and the connector. The flange slots define a mouth with an angled edge which urge the connector into alignment with the flange slots.

  • Patent number: 5326968
    Abstract: A photoelectric sensor is adapted for use in specific applications which require the additional attachment of a circular polarizer. A piece of circular polarizer material is general disc-shaped with two planar surfaces and a peripheral circular surface. The outer periphery of the disc-shaped circular polarizer is encapsulated within a generally annular molded rim. The molded rim is provided with a protrusion that is generally circular and extends from one of the generally flat surfaces of the rim material. The protrusion facilitates the attachment of the rim to the operative face of a photoelectric sensor through the process of ultrasonic welding. Advantages achieved by this device include the facilitated attachment of the circular polarizer to a photoelectric sensor, the protection of the outer peripheral edges of the laminations of the circular polarizer and the avoidance of distortions of the circular polarizer during the manufacturing process.
