  • Patent number: 6267311
    Abstract: A rotor assembly for a fishing reel, which rotor assembly includes a rotor having a first rotational axis, a bail assembly that is repositionable relative to the rotor between cast and retrieve positions, and a trigger that is movable relative to the rotor around a second axis between normal and actuated positions. The bail assembly is movable from the retrieve position towards the cast position as an incident of the trigger moving from the normal position to the actuated position. The trigger has a forwardly projecting leg. A gripping portion is applied to the forwardly projecting leg to facilitate engagement of the forwardly projecting leg by a user.

  • Patent number: 5253208
    Abstract: An identification circuit for identifying how many redundant rows and columns have been substituted for normal rows and columns in a memory device is disclosed. Column and row identifying circuits are used, respectively, with each circuit having a plurality of fuses with each fuse having a pair of leads and a plurality of resistive elements with each resistive element connected, in series, to a lead of one of the fuses and with the remaining lead of the fuse connected to a common lead. Each resistive element is connected to a ground to permit each interconnected fuse and resistive element to be connected in parallel.
