The invention relates to and an apparatus for measuring the distance between two spaced objects and wherein either or both of said objects may be movable with respect to each other and/or with respect to a fixed point. Said objects, such as vehicles arranged along a track, each carry a transmitter for the emanation of signals and a receiver for the reception of signals emanated by an adjacent object. The signals are fed to a conductor extending along said track and able to provide a sufficiently rapid attenuation of said signals whereby same may serve as an accurate indicator of relatively short distances between the objects. For example, such conductor can comprise at least two parallel conductors connected throughout their length by resistive means of relatively high conductivity. Supplemental transmitters may also be applied to said objects to suppress transmitted signals in one direction while permitting such transmission in another direction in order to minimize interference with the signal received from another object, as a vehicle, in the one direction. Thus, in a line of three vehicles, the transmitter on the second vehicle will not interfere with the receiver on the second vehicle but will effectively send signals to the receiver of the third vehicle.

A novel transmission-line structure, particularly adapted for printed circuit sheets and the like, and embodying zig-zag line conductors formed of conductive strips successively disposed on opposite sides of the insulating sheet and interconnected transversely through the sheet, with the corresponding strips of each line conductor crossing those of the other line conductor, through on opposite sides of said sheet, effectively to provide a twist of the line conductors through at least a turn to effect magnetic field cancellation, self-shielding and interference suppression.

A multi-conductor cable for forming a cable harness, for instance for use in automobiles or aircraft, comprises at least one length of tape cable enclosed in a heat-shrunk tubular sheath of insulating material. At least one branch length of tape cable is electrically connected to the length of tape cable, or to at least one of the lengths of tape cable, at at least one of a number of longitudinally spaced locations, the free end of the branch length protruding from the tubular sheath. An individually insulated conductor and/or a twin or multi-conductor insulated cable may also be enclosed within the tubular sheath. In a cable harness incorporating the multi-conductor cable at least some of the conductors of the length or lengths of tape cable and/or of the branch length or lengths of tape cable are electrically connected to insulated terminal leads.

A flat three-phase power able comprises a heavy grounding strand and a smaller ground-check strand with the structural balance of the cable and reliability of the ground-check strand assured by insulating the ground-check strand with a heavy sheath.

AN ELECTRIC COIL IN WHICH THE TURNS OF THE CONDUCTOR ARE WOUND IN MULTIPLES, RATHER THAN IN SINGLE STRANDS. THE CONDUCTOR IS PRINTED OR OTHERWISE PROVIDED ON A WEB OF INSULATING MATERIAL. THE CONDUCTOR IS RANGED IN A SPIRAL PATTERN AROUND A CENTRAL OPENING IN THE WEB. THE WEB ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF THE OPENING IS WOUND IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS SO THAT THE FLUX PRODUCED BY CURRENT IN THE CONDUC-
TOR IS ADDITIVE WHEN THE WINDINGS HAVE A COMMON CENTRAL AXIS.
