Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a tower-shaped support device comprising: a plurality of main frames arranged in a vertical direction on a mounting surface; a plurality of support frames which are coupled to the main frames in a direction that is vertical with respect to the main frame while the pair of frames facing each other are arranged at the same height, and which support at least one current limiting resistance unit module for limiting the fault current of a power system; and a lower frame and an upper frame respectively provided at the upper and lower sides of the main frame and grounded.

Abstract: A watercraft including a frame and a folding ladder coupled to the frame. The folding ladder is configured for moving in between a folded position and an unfolded position. The ladder includes a stabilizing portion connected to the frame and defining a stabilizing plane and a first stair portion pivotably connected to the stabilizing portion. The first stair portion pivots relative to the stabilizing portion in a first direction of rotation. The ladder further includes a second stair portion pivotably connected to the first stair portion. The second stair portion pivots relative to the first stair portion in a second direction of rotation which is opposite to the first direction of rotation of the first stair portion such that the ladder selectively folds between the folded position and the unfolded position.

Abstract: A wiper for an electric rotary potentiometer, in particular for use as a rotary position transducer, having a contact spring for pickup on a resistor track, and a rotatable spring holder on which the contact spring is secured nonrotatably. To save time and expense in assembling the contact spring and the spring holder, at least one fastening tang with a detent head protrudes at approximately right angles from the spring holder, and the contact spring has circular-annular-segmental detent straps, disposed on a circle, which lock into place behind the detent head under spring tension.

Abstract: A current sensing device includes an electrically conductive current shunt member (10), and a voltage-responsive member (12). The current shunt member includes a first portion (14) having a free end (20), and a second arcuate portion (16) including an arcuate slot (38) defined by a constant radius (45) centered about the free end (20) of the first section, so that when current is passed through the arcuate section (16), the voltage produced by the shunt (10) may be varied by pivoting the voltage-responsive member (12) retained at the free end (20) of the first member and at the arcuate slot (38), and bridging or spanning between this first free end (20) and the arcuate slot (38). Preferably, the current-sensing member (12) includes electrical or electronic circuitry, for providing an output when sensed voltage, proportional to current through the arcuate portion, exceeds a predetermined level.
