Publication number: 20110017488Abstract: A field-controlled composite insulator uses materials which are greatly stressed by an inhomogeneous distribution of an electrical field across a surface thereof. One of the causes thereof is the structural configuration of the insulator.

A further cause is deposits of dirt, which stress an insulator overall. A field control layer is therefore disposed between the core and the protective layer in at least one section of the insulator. The control layer includes particles as a filler, which influence the electrical field of the insulator. A method for producing the composite insulator is also provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2010Publication date: January 27, 2011Applicant: LAPP INSULATORS GMBH & CO.

Said device comprises an electrical component (2) and a connecting cable (5) which is connected to the component (2) and is surrounded by a sheathing (8), the end (9) of said sheathing being at a distance from the component (2). The sheath end (9) and the respectively connected regions (13, 14) of the sheathing (8) and the connecting cable (5) comprise a sealing coating (16). The aim of the invention is to improve the sealing and to increase the durability thereof. To this end, another section (10) of the sheathing (8), embodied in a sleeve-shaped manner, is arranged between the sheath end (9) and the component (2), and the coating (16) extends over a sleeve end (11) facing the sheath end (9) and over the region (17) of the sleeve-shaped section (10) of the sheathing (8) connected thereto. The invention also relates to a method for producing one such device.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2006Publication date: October 16, 2008Inventor: Harry Skarpil

Publication number: 20080244904Abstract: An integrated circuit has a wiring layer below an insulator layer. A pad comprises a conductive material that is on the insulator layer. The pad has a wirebond connection region and a probe pad region. An inspection mark is between the wirebond connection region and the probe pad region. The inspection mark comprises an opening in the insulator layer that is filled with the conductive material. In addition, a contact that is through the insulator layer is adapted to electrically connect the conductor wire in the wiring layer to the pad. The contact is formed of the same conductive material used for the pad and the inspection mark.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2008Publication date: October 9, 2008Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Timothy H.

Publication number: 20080230727Abstract: In structures of the typical conventional photo couplers, an unwanted rotation or a dislocation during the manufacturing thereof is occurred during the manufacture of the couplers. The photo coupler according to the embodiment includes a lead frame (first lead frame), a lead frame (second lead frame) having an end section bent toward the lead frame, a light emitting element (first optical device) fixed to the lead frame, a light receiving element (second optical device) fixed to the lead frame so as to face the light emitting element, and an electrically insulating film, provided between the light emitting element and the light receiving element, and including an end section having protruding and contracting sections in plan view. An end section of the lead frame has protruding and contracting sections in plan view. Further, the end section of the electrically insulating film fits in the end section of the lead frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 13, 2008Publication date: September 25, 2008Applicant: NEC ELECTRONICS CORPORATIONInventor: Kanako HORINO

Publication number: 20080210455Abstract: A method of making a hermetically-sealed feed-through device includes inserting an elongate conductor or conductors within a hollow portion or portions of a plastic insulator body and inserting the plastic insulator body within a hollow outer jacket to form an assembly. At least one of the conductor or conductors, insulator body, or jacket of the assembly has a plurality of circumferential grooves. Thereafter, the assembly is crimped and/or is swage-crimped at ambient temperature to cause the materials of the conductor or conductors, insulator body, and outer jacket to be displaced or extrude into the grooves thereby creating mechanical interlocks between the conductor or conductors, insulator body, and outer jacket. Additional methods and feed-through devices made by the methods are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 2, 2008Publication date: September 4, 2008Applicant: POLLACK LABORATORIES, INC.Inventors: Michael J. Pollack, Branson J. Darnell, Mary Ann Kessler, William J. Zoll, Richard A. DiDomizio

Publication number: 20080196238Abstract: An animal training apparatus including an electrical conductor embedded within a flexible member, and a housing having a through-opening for receiving the electrical conductor therethrough. The flexible member is molded around the electrical conductor and the antenna, while the electrical conductor is positioned such that it extends into the housing through the through-opening. As a result of the molding process, the flexible member shields the housing through-opening, discouraging substances such as water from accessing the interior of the housing via the through-opening.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 22, 2008Publication date: August 21, 2008Applicant: Radio Systems CorporationInventors: Albert L.

Patent number: 7251881Abstract: A method for delivering a geometric type stress relief element to a terminated electrical cable is provided. The cable contains a conductor surrounded by at least one coaxial layer of insulator, semiconductor, grounded wires and cable jacket. First, the terminated cable is tapered to expose a portion of the conductor so as to protrude beyond the insulation, which protrudes beyond semiconductor, which protrudes beyond the conductive wires. A geometric stress cone is preloaded onto a cold shrink tube. The terminated, tapered cable is inserted into the cold shrink tube. The cold shrink tube is removed and the geometric stress cone collapses onto the tapered cable. The cable is rated for supplying high voltage.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2004Date of Patent: August 7, 2007Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties CompanyInventors: Nga K. Nguyen, Todd H.
