  • Patent number: 7424775
    Abstract: A method for wiring a test fixture comprised of two parallel fixture plates wherein the wires are wired randomly from locations on one plate to locations on a second plate using a system of software algorithms and positioning apparatus to control the motion of one plate relative to the other to allow the wires to be passed directly through the hole locations to be wired together, while previously woven locations are allowed to slide in the hole in the fixture plate to allow reaching subsequent hole pair locations. After the fixture is wired, a termination is added to the wire end emerging from the hole in the fixture plates. The resultant assembly consists of contacts on one outer surface electrically connected to contacts on a second outer surface with all of the wiring sandwiched between the two fixture plates.

  • Publication number: 20060117636
    Abstract: A new and useful structure and method are provided that enable a coupling device to be integrated with an auxiliary device and to be effectively operated to securely couple the auxiliary device to a male dovetail rail (e.g. the male dovetail rail of a firearm). In addition, the structure and method of the present invention are designed to provide a range of adjustment over which the coupling structure can be effectively operated. Thus, the coupling structure can take up a range of tolerance variations in the manufacture of the male dovetail rail.
