Abstract:
A back-mounted load-carrying device, such as a backpack or a child carrier, having an adjustable waist belt assembly is described. The waist belt assembly is freely slidable between a variety of vertical positions along a rigid frame. A locking mechanism, actuatable while the device is being worn, permits a user to adjust the waist belt assembly to rest comfortably on his hip and around his waist on the fly and subsequently secure the waist belt in the desired position. A pair of hip-load transfer members that are rigid to loads applied in the vertical direction comprise the waist belt assembly and rest against the hip of a user when the waist belt is secured. These members help to transfer load from the device to the user's hips and act to lessen the amount of load carried by the user's shoulder and back, the result being greater comfort and less fatigue.

Abstract:
A pair of confronting and spaced contact surfaces of a predetermined conductive material are electrically interconnected by a spring-type contact that is between the surfaces. The contact has an anchored end secured to one of the surfaces, an opposite free end, and a plurality of blades unitary with and extending between the ends and each having a bowed section engaging a respective contact surface. These bowed sections of the contact extend in opposite directions toward the contact surfaces and form contact points engageable with the respective contact surfaces. A coating on each of the contact points is of a material matched to the conductive material of the contact surfaces.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a locking element (1) for attaching a housing (2) of a high-frequency device of a vehicle to a holder (4). Said locking element (1) can be actuated by means of a tool (8) for removing the device from the holder (4). The inventive locking element (1) is embodied as a planar punched bent part that comprises a first section (11), a second section (13) that forms an angle and adjoins the first section (11), and a locking section (14) adjoining the second section (13).
Abstract:
A hair-retaining device to be worn on the head comprising two attached hair sticks with two locking beads connected to each of the hair sticks. The hair sticks retain a portion of a user's hair between the hair sticks and between the locking beads.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a system for purging high purity interfaces comprises a first manifold in flow communication with a high purity container and a second manifold. The first manifold comprises a first diaphragm valve connected to the container, to a first end of the second manifold and to sources of vacuum and vent. The first manifold further comprises a second diaphragm valve connected to the container and to second and third ends of the second manifold. A third diaphragm valve is interposed between the second diaphragm valve and the third end, and a fourth diaphragm valve is interposed between the first diaphragm valve and the sources of vacuum and vent.
Abstract:
A housing holds a first contact partner adjacent a throughgoing hole in the housing. Electrical contact is made between this first contact partner and a second contact partner outside the housing by a device having an electrically conductive and elastically deformable contact element engaged with all-around play in the hole between the contact partners and bearing elastically in one direction on the first contact partner and elastically in an opposite direction on the second contact partner. This element is formed with a flange bearing peripherally on the housing around the throughgoing hole.
