Abstract:
A three-dimensional moulded planar cable, includes a laminate made from at least one conductor track, bonded between two insulation layers and at least one support layer, connected to each other by an adhesive layer. The cable is applied to a positive moulding tool, brought into shape by the application of heat and/or radiation and/or pressure and fixed in the three-dimensional shape thereof by cooling to below the glass temperature Tg of the adhesive layer or by hardening of the adhesive layer.
Abstract:
A flexible flat cable contains mainly multiple lines of conductive cable which is elongated to gain better ductility and pressed to change it into a flat cable, encased both on the top and bottom surface with a layer of insulation. The exposed ends of the cable become a section of conductor, on which it is coated with a metal and finally stiffened with reinforcement to become a reliable flexible flat cable. The utmost surface of the conductive ends is further gilt to enhance its conductivity so as to intensify the data transmission efficient when used in LVDS. The purpose of the gilt coating is to harden the cable surface and to restrain the generation of tin tassel from tin coating which would render short circuit in the flat cable.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of forming a thin film containing a metal oxide as the main component, the film thickness of which is relatively uniform, at a high film deposition rate over a wide area and over a long time. The present invention is a method for forming a thin film containing a metal oxide as the main component on a substrate using a mixed gas stream containing a metal chloride, an oxidizing material, and hydrogen chloride, by a thermal decomposition method at a film deposition rate of 4500 nm/min. or greater, performing at least one selected from: 1) prior to mixing the metal chloride and the oxidizing material in the mixed gas stream, contacting hydrogen chloride with at least one selected from the metal chloride and the oxidizing material, and 2) forming a buffer layer in advance on a surface of the substrate on which the thin film containing a metal oxide as the main component is to be formed.
Abstract:
In a first flat harness, a plurality of first conductive wires are covered with a first insulating cover. In a second flat harness, a plurality of second conductive wires are covered with a second insulating cover. The second flat harness is intersectingly superposed on the first flat harness. Each second conductive wire is welded to one of the first conductive wires at one of intersecting points of each second conductive wire and the first conductive wires, through the first insulating cover and the second insulating cover.
Abstract:
The wiring material is manufactured in such a manner that a plurality of flat cables is superimposed on top of one another. In the end portions of the conductors of the respective flat cables, there are formed terminal fixing portions. The terminal fixing portions are formed by removing an insulating material disposed on one-side outer surfaces of the end portions of the flat cables, forming small-width portions smaller in the conductor width than the remaining portions of the flat cables in a part of the insulating material removed areas; and, folding back the flat cables in the small-width portions and superimposing the conductors on top of one another. Due to proper superimposition of these flat cables, the respective terminal fixing portions can be arranged sequentially in the width direction of the flat cables at a prescribed pitch.
Abstract:
A ribbon cable includes electrical conductors surrounded by an insulator and vent tubes positioned adjacent and parallel to the conductors and insulator. The vent tubes allow airflow between an internal area of the enclosure and an external atmosphere and prevent access to the internal area of the enclosure.
Abstract:
A conductor cable includes a tubular metallic sheath for carrying one or more electrical conductors and/or one or more fiber optic elements and which, in various embodiments has a substantially rectangular transverse cross-sectional configuration defined by pairs of parallel sidewalls which enable selective bending of the cable generally about the major and minor axes of the sheath. The parallel sidewalls may have substantially transverse or angularly inclined corrugations formed along their lengths to facilitate bending of the cable in relatively small radius bends about the major and minor axes of the sheath.
Abstract:
A flat, flexible cable construction comprises two flat, flexible insulating strips each including a plurality of electrical conductors extending along one side of one strip and the opposite side of the other strip, which electrical conductors are exposed at their ends on the inner contacting faces of the two insulating strips. Each of the insulating strips is formed with a transversely-extending slit starting from the edge of the side not including its respective electrical conductors and terminating short of the side including its respective electrical conductors, whereby the two ends of the insulating strips may be transposed by inserting the non-slitted side of one into the slitted side of the other to thereby transpose the outer exposed ends of the electrical conductors from the inner contacting faces of the insulating strips to the outer non-contacting faces of the insulating strips for connection to an electrical connector.
Abstract:
The measuring units of a measuring system are combined in groups each with a respective selecting unit. A cable, into which the measuring and selecting units are integrated, connects these one with the other and with a central control unit which, by emission of encoded selecting unit setting and address signals activates the selecting units individually so that these prepare the measuring units of their group for the reception of measuring unit setting and address signals from the cental control unit. The address signals each consist of respective pulse sequences which are decoded by programmed reception circuits. The pulses for the measuring units differ from the pulses for the selecting units by their pulse width. Employed as measuring sensors are current sources which on activation of their measuring unit are connected to a voltage supply and thereupon impress a measurement current, which varies with the magnitude to be measured, into a measurement line wire of the cable leading to the central control unit. The measuring and selecting units comprise current-limiting and buffer curcuits, which limit short-circuit currents and enven out the current loading of the cable. Signal-shaping circuits in the selecting units prepare the pulses and feed them into the next line portions.
