Abstract: The invention relates to an electrically conductive contact member for an electrical connector, comprising a terminal portion adapted to be mechanically and electrically connected to at least one conductor, a contact portion adapted to contact a mating contact portion of a mating connector, a spring portion that electrically connects the terminal portion to the contact portion, the contact portion being supported by the spring portion elastically displaceable from a resting position to a displacement position, and a holding portion that comprises a picking platform for attachment of a pick-up head, wherein the holding portion provides a stop against which, in the resting position, the spring portion is pressed. To improve the mechanical and electrical performance, the spring portion is spaced apart from the picking platform in the displacement position.

Abstract: A dispenser for administering a pharmaceutical substance in the form of a plurality of separate unit doses of the substance, comprising a housing, an actuator, a delivery outlet for administering at least one unit dose at a time, a transport mechanism for bringing the unit doses sequentially in operative association with the delivery outlet and a delaying arrangement to impose a lockout interval between administering sequential doses

Abstract: A heater for diesel fuel filter system has a thermally and electrically conductive heating plate mounted in a housing chamber so that diesel fuel flowing between the chamber inlet and outlet toward a filter normally passes over both sides of the heating plate in heat-transfer relation to the plate. Self-regulating electrical resistance heater discs of a ceramic material of positive temperature coefficient of resistivity are mounted on the plate in thermally and electrically conductive relation to the plate for heating the plate. The heater discs are arranged so that fuel passing through the chamber also flows directly over the heater discs.
