    摘要: Methods are provided for validating the continuity of one or more optical fibers upon which a fiber optic connector is mounted. Typically, the fiber optic connector is mounted upon an optical field fiber by actuating a cam mechanism to secure the optical field fiber in position relative to an optical fiber stub. If subsequent testing indicates that the continuity of the optical field fiber and the optical fiber stub is unacceptable, the cam mechanism can be deactuated, the optical field fiber can be repositioned and the cam mechanism can be reactuated without having to remove and replace the fiber optic connector. In order to determine if continuity has been established between the optical field fibers and respective optical fiber stubs, a method is also provided that introduces light into at least one of each pair of optical field fibers and optical fiber stubs and that only secures the position of each optical field fiber relative to the respective optical fiber stub once the glow associated with each pair of optical field fibers and optical fiber stubs dissipates, which dissipation indicates the establishment of continuity. An improved multifiber connector and installation tool are also provided to facilitate the establishment and validation of the continuity of optical field fibers and optical fiber stubs in order to reduce the time and cost required to connectorize optical field fibers in the field.

    摘要: Devices and methods are described that permit simple correction of a fiber optic polarity reversal problem. An adapter is described having receptacles to receive a connector on a first end, or user end, and on a second end, or contractor end. Both the receptacles provide keying arrangements so that the connectors can be received only when correctly oriented with respect to the adapter. The keying arrangement on the contractor end, however, is reversable so that the connector may be inserted in one of two predetermined orientations, at the behest of the contractor or installer. Adapters are also described that receive connectors only in a physically reversed orientation to counteract a reverse polarity condition. In addition, a jumper is described that can be interposed between a connector and adapter to correct a reverse polarity condition.

    摘要: Disclosed is a ceramic knock-off apparatus for automatically removing the ceramic coating from investment casting molds having a plurality of arms. Prior to operation, a ceramic covered mold is loaded into a receptacle on a turntable and rotated to a starting position thereby placing one of the arms of the ceramic covered mold directly under the head of an air hammer. The apparatus automatically removes the ceramic coating from each arm of an investment casting mold by lowering the air hammer until it engages the first arm of the mold, operating the hammer thereby vibrating that arm of the mold and causing the ceramic coating to break and fall off, raising the hammer, automatically rotating the turntable until the next arm of the mold is aligned under the air hammer, and lowering the hammer to engage the next arm. This cycle is repeated until the ceramic coating has been removed from every arm of the mold. As the ceramic coating is removed from the mold by the air hammer it falls into a scrap conveyor which carries it away for disposal. When the ceramic coating has been removed from every arm of the mold, the casting is removed from the receptacle on the turntable, and the apparatus is ready to repeat the operation on another investment casting mold. Control circuitry allows automatic programmable indexing of the turntable so that ceramic can be removed from an investment casting mold having any number of arms.

    摘要: An accumulating conveyer is provided in which rollers are utilized which have a drive mechanism with a driven load-engaging portion in permanent frictional engagement with a driving portion. The drive mechanism includes an adjustable bias means so that the driving force between a driving portion and a driven portion is adjustable according to the characteristics of the loads to be conveyed. A friction pad is positioned between a disc in the driving portion and a disc in the driven portion of the drive mechanism; the two discs are urged against the friction pad by a compression spring. When the weight of a load in contact with the driven portion is below a predetermined value, the friction between the friction pad and the two discs is sufficient to cause the two discs and the friction pad to rotate conjointly thereby coupling the driving portion to the driven portion. When the weight of the load, or the weight of the load plus other resistance to movement of the load, exceeds the predetermined value, slippage occurs between the friction pad and the two discs thereby uncoupling the driving portion from the driven portion. Only selected ones of the rollers include drive mechanisms, the number and spacing of rollers with drive mechanisms, the number and spacing of rollers with drive mechanisms being determined by characteristics of the loads to be conveyed. The conveyer can be used to column accumulate, and, with the addition of brakes actuated by a switching mechanism, to zone accumulate.
