  • Patent number: 8153262
    Abstract: Disclosed is a strippable floor coating which includes an undercoat layer (A) to be applied to a floor surface, and a strippable overcoat layer (B) over the undercoat layer (A). The undercoat layer (A) is formed from an undercoating agent mainly containing a wax or analogue thereto and having film-formability. The overcoat layer (B) is formed from a floor polish composition mainly containing an aqueous emulsion. The undercoat layer (A) has greater adhesion to the floor surface than to the overcoat layer (B). Even when applied to various flooring materials, this strippable floor coating does not peel off practically and is excellent in soiling resistance and wear resistance to retain a beautiful appearance over long time. If necessary, the coating can be easily stripped off.

  • Patent number: 7249958
    Abstract: A male housing (30) has a hood (32) and a rib (45) that projects forward in the hood (32). A moving plate (50) is disposed movably in the hood (32) and an insertion hole (62) is formed on a body (51) of the moving plate (50) for receiving the rib (45). Guide walls (64, 65) are formed on the periphery of the insertion hole (62). The moving plate (50) is pressed into the hood (32) from an initial position by a female housing (10). Peripheral sides of the moving plate (50) are guided by the hood (32) and peripheral surfaces of the rib (45) slide in contact with the guide walls (64, 65) to prevent the moving plate (50) from shaking.

  • Patent number: 7134901
    Abstract: A moving plate (50) is movable between a retained position and a released position in a receptacle (35) of a male housing (30). One receiving portion (52) is provided in a middle part of the front surface of the moving plate (50), and a resiliently deformable latch (42) projects from the back surface of the receptacle (35) so that the leading end of the latch (42) is engageable with the receiving portion (52) through an insertion hole (64) of the moving plate (50). Movement of the moving plate (50) from the retained position to the released position is prevented by the resilient engagement of the latch (42) and the receiving portion (52). At the start of the connection of two housings (10, 30), a releasing portion (22) on the front surface of a female housing (10) contacts the latch (42) to disengage the latch (42) from the receiving portion (52).

  • Patent number: 6790106
    Abstract: A tab (20) has first and second plates (21, 22). A bulge (23) of the first plate (21) is spaced from the second plate (22). Supports (25) project from the bulge (23) and contact with the second plate (22). Thus, a sufficient strength is secured for the tab (20). The supports (25) are in contact with the second plate (22) at positions displaced toward side edges from the free ends (28a). Thus, there is no danger that the supports (25) will thrust themselves between the free ends (28a) to separate the free ends (28a) when the first plate (21) is pressed, thereby preventing the tab (20) from being deformed.

  • Patent number: 6183275
    Abstract: A panel mount connector comprising male and female connector housings (10,20) is shown in FIG. 3. A lever arm (30) pivotally connected to the male connector housing (10) co-operates with pins on the female connector housing (20) to draw the housings (10,20) together, in use. A snap fit projection (18) enables the male connector housing (10) to be fitted to an aperture (H) in a panel (P). Sealing members (16,27) prevent the ingress of moisture.

  • Patent number: 5831438
    Abstract: A device for testing a connector which has a plurality of terminals, each in a terminal chamber. There is a flexing space adjacent each chamber and a resilient tongue, biased into the chamber, is moved into the space as the terminals are inserted and springs out of the space when they are fully within the chambers. The device has a plurality of testing units attached within a body which is movable toward and away from the connector. If at least one of the terminals is not fully inserted into its chamber, the body is moved backward away from the connector so that contact between the units and the terminals is not made.

  • Patent number: 5782647
    Abstract: A pivoting member attached to a female housing, which is capable of receiving a complementary male housing. A resilient elastic member, preferably U-shaped, is disposed between an operating portion toward the rear of pivoting member and the female housing. The bend of the U-shape is positioned toward the pivot. The resilient member 50 is hidden behind the pivoting member and is located within the housing so that it does not get caught by parts of other connectors shipped with it in a single container.

  • Patent number: 5581873
    Abstract: Devices for treating a post-inserting terminal (31A) are disclosed. A lot of electric wires (31) laid out on a wire laying-out board (1) are fixed by a wire clamp (13), whereby the electric wires (31) project beyond the wire laying-out board (1), and also terminals (31A) caulked on ends of the electric wires (31). The electric wire of a post-inserting terminal (31A) among the terminals (31A) is detached from the wire clamp (13) by a terminal inserting device (570) and is temporarily held by a temporary holding member (147) on the wire laying-out board (1).

  • Patent number: 5201674
    Abstract: A connector comprising an upper housing and a lower housing connected with each other vertically and each having terminal accommodating chambers arranged in parallel with each other therein and a cover interposed therebetween with projections extending upwardly and downwardly therefrom. An electric wire is fixedly sandwiched in the longitudinal direction of the electric wire between the upper and lower edges of the projections and the rear end of the upper and lower end surfaces of the terminal accommodating chambers. The terminal is locked at the rear end thereof by the front end of the projections and also locked at a front portion thereof by a terminal-locking portion formed on the wall of each terminal accommodating chamber.
