A pick and place assembly for picking up and positioning an article wherein a hollow spindle carrying a head for receiving vacuum for picking up an article, via a vacuum directed through the spindle, is housed within a hollow spindle housing and a sealing assembly is situated between the spindle housing and the spindle for directing the vacuum through the spindle as the spindle is driven by a driving assembly.
A clamping arrangement employs a rotatable element, such as a ball, driven by a cam to apply a biasing force to an article desired to be clamped. The ball is contained within a housing having first and second through-holes arranged substantially orthogonal to one another. An elongated cam enters through one of the through-holes, and urges the ball to protrude through the other through-hole. The ball is larger than the through-hole through which it protrudes, and therefore does not exit the housing. In one embodiment, the cam is urged into communication with the ball by the application of air pressure to a pneumatic cylinder. The air pressure can be controlled to ensure that the biasing force applied by the ball is applied gently and resiliently to avoid jarring the article to be clamped, and displacing its contents. A position sensor is employed to provide an indication of the location of the pneumatic piston. The ball, in certain embodiments, is rotated as it is urged outward of the housing, whereby a downward component of the biasing force is imparted to the article to be clamped.
An improved wire terminal is provided in which an internal coiled spring wire clamping member is opened with the usual clockwise twist of the wire terminal when wires are inserted into the wire terminal, with an intermediate portion of the spring initially contacting the wires as they are inserted into the wire terminal such that the clockwise rotation opens an upper spring portion anchored at its end to the wire terminal. In one embodiment, the portion of the spring contacting the inserted wires is open at the top and has a parallel running portion, such that with the wires held in position manually, the rotation in the clockwise direction permits further insertion of the wires up through the parallel portion of the spring and into a cavity at the top of the wire terminal. Release of the wire terminal causes the spring to collapse on itself to squeeze the wires together, thereby preventing dislodging of the wire terminal as by vibration. The wire terminal assembly includes a housing having an interior portion which is enlarged to accommodate the expansion of the internally carried spring, and in one embodiment, includes inwardly-projecting tabs adapted to contact the inserted wires to further prevent the wires from coming out of the wire terminal once inserted.
A connector for impedance-matched low capacitance connection to coaxial cable includes an electrically conductive housing having a pair of intersecting channels therein. A first channel receives the insulated conductor of a coaxial cable and the other channel seats an insulator which supports a contact element in the first channel for insulation-piercing of the insulated conductor. The housing is electrically connected to the shield of the coaxial cable and the transition through the contact element to ancillary apparatus is carried out with electrical equivalence to the coaxial cable environment.
A transition connector for interconnecting a standard coaxial cable to a microcoaxial cable employing a uniquely configured printed circuit module to preserve the integrity of signal transmission by providing controlled impedance paths between the desired cable termination points. The connectors or wire wrap posts to accept the cables are placed upon the module substrate which in turn is mounted in a protected floor-mounted pedestal. By the use of appropriate jumpers, the transition connector can be used as a splice for either the microcoaxial or standard coaxial cables.
Disclosed is an improved pick and place head construction of a type employed for transporting individual semi-conductor chips and similar articles of manufacture during manufacturing processes, and similar non-manufacturing environments. The disclosed device includes a dual head for engaging the chips as well as improved structure for varying the space between the heads by means of programmable actuators. In one embodiment, the vacuum spindles which reciprocate axially to engage the chips are also capable of axial rotation to enable the engaged chips to be rotated as they are transported to a place location. Also disclosed are improved article engaging members formed of synthetic resinous foam materials to enable effective vacuum engagement of non-planar surfaces. One form provides for simultaneous static dissipation.
Electrical Assembly And Method For Arranging A Plurality Of Electrical Conductors In A Pattern
Flat multiconductor cable is prepared for pitch change mass termination by use of a connector housing having conductor retention channels arranged in the pattern of such pitch change and an assembly tool which collectively forces the conductors of the cable from their mutually aligned disposition in the cable into retention in the channels and hence into the pitch change pattern. The housing includes a further channel accessible exteriorly of the housing and in communication with the retained conductors whereby they may be collectively engaged by insulation piercing contacts.
Disclosed is a switch. The switch housing has a cavity therein. In one embodiment a plunger has selected portions cut away so as to form, in combination with the side walls of the cavity, two contiguous chambers. Thus, the first chamber communicates with the second chamber. Mercury is placed in the larger chamber and remains there, irrespective of the position of the switch housing. Upon depression of the plunger, the mercury is forced into the smaller chamber. Upon removal of the plunger, the displaced mercury returns to the larger chamber. Electrical contacts are disposed in the two chambers. The mercury, displaced by the plunger, will couple the contacts and close the switch. It, upon operation of the switch at high frequencies, mercury is pumped out of the chambers and passes above the plunger and within the cavity, a channel of smaller dimension than either chamber, which extends the length of the plunger, acts to direct such mercury back to the first chamber. A small amount of mercury is disposed between the top of the plunger and the cavity to prime the return of mercury.
