Abstract: An electrical component has a plurality of paired contacts with spaced inner contact sections bridged by a fuse element. The paired contacts have outer contact sections enabling mounting to a circuit panel to complete circuit paths thereon. The component is used as a fuse component to protect the circuit panel by preventing overload of a circuit path by the respective fuse element. When the circuit paths have different design in-service currents and different levels of excessive electrical currents, the corresponding fuse elements can have correspondingly different in-service current-carrying capabilities and different melting points, in the same component. The component can be surface mountable and can have DIP configuration.

Abstract: An electrical circuit package comprises a stamped and formed lead frame to which is molded a dielectric housing member which includes openings having exposed electrical contacts, the housing member providing support for the lead frame. Some of the exposed contacts in the openings serve to support electrical components in the openings and to make electrical contact therewith while other of the exposed contacts in the openings electrically engage the electrical components and maintain them in the openings. Further exposed contacts electrically engage another electrical component and the housing member and the further exposed contacts maintain the other electrical component in the housing member. An electrical switch is part of the lead frame. The method involves molding a dielectric housing member on the lead frame with exposed circuit path parts in openings either stamped into pairs before molding or severed into pairs after molding, and further forming ones of the pairs of exposed path parts into cantilever contact members while the others of the pairs define stationary contact members.

Abstract: A push-push switch comprises a dielectric housing in which electrical contact members are secured; contact sections of the contact members are in normal electrical engagement and terminal sections of the contact members are to be electrically connected to conductive members. An actuating member is mounted in the housing for reciprocal and rotational movement therein; a spring biases the actuating member to a normal rest position. Cam members on the actuating member engage the contact members in one position to disengage them and are out of engagement with the contact members in another position causing them to be normally engaged. First and second rows of cam segments are on the actuating member; the cam segments in each of the rows are spaced from one another and the cam segments in the first row are offset with respect to the cam segments in the second row so that cam surfaces of the cam segments of the first row face the cam segments in the second row and cam surfaces of the cam segments of the second row face the cam segments in the first row. Projections extend outwardly from the housing and are normally positioned between adjacent cam segments in the first row whereby, upon movement of the actuating-member from its normal rest position against the spring, the projections engage respective cam surfaces of the cam segments of the second row causing the actuating member to rotate so that the projections are in alignment with respective cam surfaces of the cam segments of the first row; and, upon movement of the actuating member back to the normal rest position, the projections engage the respective cam surfaces of the cam segments of the first row causing the actuating member to rotate further so that the projections are disposed between adjacent cam segments of the first row and the cam members move into engagement with the contact members to disengage the contact sections or move out of engagement with the contact members so that the contact sections are engaged.

Abstract: A hook switch comprises a dielectric base member having series of stationary electrical contact members secured in aligned rows therein; the contact members in one row are offset with respect to the contact members in the other row and they include V-shaped contact sections and terminal sections. A dielectric cover member is latchably secured onto the base member. A movable contact assembly mounted in the cover member includes an operating member and a contact-carrying member. The operating member is linearly movable within an opening in the cover member from a normally inoperative position to an operative position against spring members extending betweeen the operating member and the base member. The contact-carrying member has switch segments isolated from one another, each of the switch segments including an electrical contact element of a specified length and the remaining length being dielectric material so that opposing sets of V-shaped contact sections engage respective switch segments to electrically connect the V-shaped contact sections together when engaging the electrical contact elements or to electrically disconnect the V-shaped contact sections when engaging the dielectric material in either of the inoperative or operative positions.

Abstract: A clamp for securing an adjustable bar hanger to a molded thermosetting plastic electrical wiring box. The clamp includes a generally U-shaped portion having a deformable tab directed into the region defined by the U-shaped portion and a pair of side flanges integral with and on opposite sides of the U-shaped portion. A bar hanger is positioned within the U-shaped portion of the clamp and the wiring box is oriented with respect to the clamp and bar hanger assembly so that the bar hanger is captured between the clamp and a rear wall of the wiring box and the clamp is spaced a slight distance from the rear wall of the wiring box. Screws are then inserted through openings provided in the rear wall of the wiring box and threaded into corresponding threaded openings provided in the flanges of the clamp. As the screws advance into the openings in the flanges, the clamp is drawn toward the wiring box, causing the deformable tab of the U-shaped portion to deform and move in a direction away from the wiring box and toward the U-shaped portion of the clamp. The deformation of the tab serves to distribute the torque or energy applied to the screws throughout the entire clamp in a manner so as to prevent damage to the wiring box, such as cracking or shattering.

Abstract: A connector (10) having one or more arrays of elongate cantilever beam arms (22) of contacts (20) can have contact sections (26) on free ends (24) thereof soldered to respective traces (94) of a circuit element (90), by securing a lead frame (50) to free ends (24) which includes a corresponding plurality of fingers (56) extending from a carrier strip (52). On the finger ends (58) are affixed preforms (80,82) of solder; on the carrier strip (52) is defined a thin magnetic layer, transforming the brass carrier strip into a Curie point heater. When the carrier strip is subjected to RF current, it generates thermal energy which melts the solder preforms to join the fingers first to the contact sections (26) of the connector contacts (20), and in a remote location later subjected to RF current to reflow solder preform (82) to join contact sections (26) to traces (94).

Abstract: An electrical switch comprises an electrical contact assembly which includes a dielectric frame in which a series of aligned stationary contact members are disposed. Electrical contact sections of the stationary contact members are exposed in recesses in a top surface of the dielectric frame. A movable electrical contact member is pivotally mounted on one of the contact sections in each of the recesses to electrically connect the stationary contact sections in one position and to disconnect the contact sections in another position. A housing is latchably secured onto the dielectric frame and has linearly-movable actuating members mounted therein in operative association with respective movable contact members. Each of the linearly-movable actuating members comprises a slide member in which a spring is disposed. The slide member is movable to one position in the housing so that the spring moves the movable contact member to the one position electrically connecting the stationary contact sections and the spring and the housing maintain the slide member in this one position. The slide member is movable to another position in the housing so that the spring moves the movable contact member to another position disconnecting the stationary contact sections and the spring and the housing maintain the slide member in this other position.
