摘要： When manually closed, switches in pads select toy vehicles and the operation of motors for moving the vehicles in different directions and moving upwardly and downwardly (and rightwardly and leftwardly) a receptacle for holding transportable elements (e.g. marbles). When interrogated by a central station, each pad sends through wires to the station signals indicating the switch closures in such pad. Such station produces first binary signals addressing the vehicle selected by such pad and second binary signals identifying the motor control operations in such vehicle. Thereafter the switches identifying in such pad the motor control operations in such selected vehicle can be closed without closing the switches identifying such vehicle. The first and second signals for each vehicle are transmitted by wireless to all of the vehicles at a common carrier frequency modulated by the first and second binary signals. The vehicle identified by the transmitted address demodulates the modulating signals and operates its motors in accordance with such demodulation. When the station fails to receive signals from a pad for a particular period of time, the vehicle selected by such pad can be selected by another pad and such pad can select that vehicle or another vehicle. A cable may couple two (2) central stations (one as a master and the other as a slave) to increase the number of pads controlling the vehicles. Stationary accessories (e.g. elevator) connected by wires to the central station become operative when selected by the pads.

摘要： An electrical connector includes a base, a contact housing plate and a cover. The contact housing plate is coupled to the base and includes an electrical receptacle which is adapted to engage an electrical plug. The cover is also coupled to the base and overlies the contact housing plate. The cover has an inclined surface which extends toward the base and an opening therein forming a recess for receiving the electrical plug that is engageable with the electrical receptacle. The cover also includes a lid, which is movable between an open position and a closed position. When the lid is in the open position, the contact housing plate is exposed, facilitating access to the electrical receptacle. When the lid is in the closed position, the lid protects the electrical plug from debris and dislodgement from the electrical receptacle. The electrical connector may further include a plurality of electrical receptacles and openings for receiving multiple electrical plugs. The electrical connector may also include a circuit board which may contain an on/off switch and a circuit breaker with surge suppression. In addition, the plug of the power cord for the electrical connector may contain a built-in GFCI circuit.

摘要： When manually closed, switches in pads select toy vehicles and the operation of motors for moving the vehicles forwardly, rearwardly, leftwardly and rightwardly and moving upwardly and downwardly (and rightwardly and leftwardly) a receptacle for holding transportable elements (e.g. marbles). When sequentially and cyclically interrogated by a central station, each pad sends through wires to the station signals indicating the switch closures in such pad. Such station produces first binary signals addressing the vehicle selected by such pad and second binary signals identifying the motor control operations in such vehicle. Thereafter the switches identifying in such pad the motor control operations in such selected vehicle can be closed without closing the switches addressing such vehicle. The signals for each vehicle are transmitted by wireless to all of the vehicles at a common carrier frequency modulated by the binary signals. The vehicle identified by the transmitted address demodulates the modulating signals and operates its motors in accordance with such demodulation. When the station fails to receive signals from a pad for a particular period of time, the vehicle addressed by such pad becomes available for addressing by any pad including the pad previously addressing the vehicle. A cable may couple two (2) central stations (one a master and the other a slave) to increase the number of pads controlling the vehicles. Stationary accessories (e.g. elevator) connected by wires to the central station become operative when addressed by the pads.
