Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a "Switch assembly for disconnect operator." This invention features a sealed switch assembly designed for use with a disconnect operator that can transition between an on state, a tripped state, and an off state. The disconnect operator is housed within a sealed enclosure, and the switch assembly includes a housing that is sealed to the enclosure to prevent the ingress of solids and liquids. A handle is coupled to the disconnect operator and is partially located within the housing, ensuring that it is also sealed to inhibit the entry of contaminants. Additionally, a low-friction trip indicator mechanism operates independently of the handle to signal when the disconnect operator is in the tripped state.
Another significant patent is the "Housing-captured component carrier for reducing fasteners." This invention provides an electrical control module that includes a plastic insert fitting securely inside a housing. The insert is compressed during the assembly of the housing lid and base, ensuring a secure retention that accommodates normal manufacturing tolerances. The plastic insert features mechanisms for attaching various electrical components without the need for conventional screw fasteners, utilizing channels and elastic detents instead.
