Abstract: A gasoline dispenser, and cable assembly utilized therein, in which the cable assembly is formed by a plurality of conductors, a sheath of insulative material extending around each conductor, and a sleeve extending over a portion of the jacket. The sleeve is crimped over the jacket to compress the jacket and sheaths to reduce the passage of vapor through the cable assembly. The cable assembly is connected between two components in the dispenser to prevent the flow of gasoline vapor from one component to the other.

Abstract: A dispensing system and method utilizing a break-away antenna in a radio frequency customer identification system for service stations to reliably and accurately identify and charge customers for their purchases. The antenna is formed by a bracket adapted to be affixed to the object, a rod pivotally mounted to the bracket, and a spring normally urging the rod to a first position, the rod being pivotal to a second position in response to a force applied to the rod in a direction towards the second position.

Abstract: A strainer formed by a body member defining an inlet passage for receiving the fluid and an outlet passage for discharging the fluid. A chamber is connected to the outlet passage and an internal passage connects the inlet passage to the chamber. A separator is disposed in the chamber for separating particles from the fluid as the fluid passes through the chamber. The fluid is thus routed into the inlet passage, and through the inlet passage to the chamber where the particles are separated. The fluid is then passed to the discharge passage for discharging the fluid to a conduit.
