Title: Innovations of James H. Voth
Introduction
James H. Voth is an accomplished inventor based in Sauk Centre, MN (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of cable technology, holding a total of 2 patents. His work focuses on improving the performance and reliability of multi-conductor cables.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is the "Advanced Cable Metrology System." This invention provides a method for determining the center-to-center spacing of conductors in an insulated, multi-conductor, flat cable. The method involves applying an X-ray field to the cable, detecting the intensity of the X-ray field that passes through, and obtaining a digitized output waveform of the intensity as a function of cable position. By averaging calculated position values for the center of the conductor at several longitudinal positions, the trough location of the waveform can be determined.
Another notable patent is the "Reduced Skew Shielded Ribbon Cable." This innovation features a ribbon cable with improved skew control, consisting of a plurality of substantially parallel longitudinal conductors encased in insulation. The insulation defines outer surfaces that are parallel to the plane of the conductors. Additionally, sheets of extensible metallic foil are positioned adjacent to the insulation, providing a continuous electromagnetic shield around the conductors. A flexible jacket may also be included to protect the assembly.
