Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a "Method of Mounting Connectors to Circuit Board." This invention discloses a method and apparatus for mounting connectors to printed circuit boards. The circuit boards are aligned with the connectors by inserting spring-loaded pins through holes in the board. The connectors are then mounted by inserting pegs on the connector housings through the same holes which include the pins. The pins are displaced from the holes as the pegs are inserted therein while alignment is maintained.
Another significant patent is the "Holder for Aligning Paramagnetic Articles." In this invention, paramagnetic articles such as a stem and an armature are placed into mutual coextensive alignment with a gap of a predetermined width between adjacent portions of such articles. To repetitively establish the predetermined gap between successive groups of such articles, a first of such articles is guided tangentially into a magnetic field. A resulting force on such an article draws it against a first stop surface. The article becomes magnetically polarized, such that when the second article, such as the armature, is guided into coextensive alignment with the first article, the second article becomes attracted to the first article to be drawn against a stop surface opposite to and spaced from the first stop surface by a dimension equal to the predetermined gap width.
