A hermetic terminal assembly including a body member with a bottom portion and a surrounding boundary or flange portion with at least one current conducting pin sealed in an opening in the bottom portion. The hermetic terminal assembly may include an over-surface stratum or disk disposed in close fit relation in said body member in facing relation with said bottom and flange portions and/or an electrically insulating coating.

Hermetic terminal assembly

A hermetic terminal assembly including a body member with a bottom portion and a surrounding boundary or flange portion with at least one current conducting pin sealed in an opening in the bottom portion and an over-surface stratum or disk disposed in close fit relation in said body member in facing relation with said bottom and flange portions and having disk retention means therefore, and preselectively sized and positioned fuse-like burn-off apertures in the current conducting pin to interrupt current conductivity at selected times, temperatures and amperage density.

Hermetic terminal retainer structure

A hermetic terminal assembly including a body member with a bottom portion and a surrounding boundary or flange portion with at least one current conducting pin sealed in an opening in the bottom portion and an over-surface stratum disposed in said body member in close proximity facing relation with said bottom and boundary portions, and having stratum holding material therefor.

Hermetic terminal structure

A hermetic terminal assembly structure adapted to be sealed along the periphery of an aperture in a chamber defining housing wall of a hermetically sealed chamber including a terminal pin sealed by a coalescent aperture seal in the aperture to include inner and outer pin portions, each of which pin portions is surrounded by one of a pair of sleeve members sealingly cooperative with the aperture seal.

Insulating arrangement for a fused hermetic terminal assembly

In combination with at least two terminal assemblies each having body members sealed in the housing wall of a hermetically sealed compressor with outer pin segments extending therefrom, two terminal blocks engageably connected to each of the body members to electrically engage the outer pin segments of the terminal assemblies and a power lead block arrangement interconnectable with one of the terminal blocks to electrically connect the two terminal blocks to a power source.

Terminal block assembly for hermetic terminal structure

A heating apparatus for heating a fluid medium confined in a hermetically sealed housing chamber including a terminal assembly having a body member sealed in the housing chamber wall with pins extending in sealed relation therethrough to provide electrically conductive inner and outer pin segments respectively connected to heat transfer members and an electric power source, the heat transfer members including a heating element and a support for the heating element which is independent of a novel electrical connection between the inner pin segment and heating element to insure stable electrical connection and a minimum of vibration.

Structural support for hermetic terminal assembly heater apparatus

A heating apparatus for heating a fluid medium confined in a hermetically sealed housing chamber including a terminal assembly having a body member sealed in the housing chamber wall with pin means extending in sealed relation therethrough to provide electrically conductive inner and outer pin segments respectively connected to a heat transfer member and an electric power source, the inner pin segment means and heating element being electrically insulated from the housing wall.

Heater apparatus for fluid medium in a hermetically sealed chamber

A current resistive terminal block for connection to outer pin segment means projecting outwardly from a body member of a hermetic terminal assembly sealed in a housing wall, the terminal block including a main channel means to protect the outer pin segment means and diffuse possible leakage from the terminal assembly and subchannel means to encase and secure fused lead end wire connection means for the outer pin segment means.

Terminal block for a hermetic terminal assembly

A hermetic terminal assembly for a housing including a fuse-like area positioned in the outer pin segment of a terminal pin extending in sealed relation through the body member of the terminal assembly which body member can be sealed to a housing wall, the fuse-like area in the outer pin segment being covered with a thermally decomposable coating which in the event of decomposition includes an arc suppressant. A pin guard and lead wire end connection securing device is provided to protect the outer pin segment and to secure the lead wire end connection thereto.

Fused hermetic terminal assembly including a pin guard and lead wire end

A terminal pin seal for an hermetic terminal assembly including at least two laminations one of which has the inner surface adjacent the assembly structure with electrochemical properties resistant to attack from chemical ingredients within the assembly and another of which laminations has the outer surface adjacent to ambient with electrochemical properties different from that lamination facing the assembly housing to produce a greater resistance to chemical attack from ambient.

Terminal assembly having two sealing layers

A method and apparatus for positioning an article having opposed ends at least one of which is flat and an irregular surfaced body portion between the ends so that the article can stably rest on the flat end including feeding one or more of such articles to a substantially horizontal support surface in random orientation and imparting a simultaneous back-and-forth and side-to-side motion on the surface with the resulting forces on each article created by such motion causing each article to seek a stable position bringing each article to rest on the flat end of the article.

Method and apparatus for positioning articles

A method of making a safety vent in an hermetically sealed electro-chemical container device and a novel container portion including such safety vent comprising a unique series of steps including printing a preselected area of the container portion with a masking resist pattern having an uncovered planar area of preselected geometric configuration corresponding to a safety vent area for the container portion and etching the uncovered area to a preselected uniform material thickness to provide a safety vent in the container portion capable of withstanding a preselected pressure before profound and instantaneous rupture.

Method of manufacturing a safety vented container and product

A hermetic terminal assembly for a motor unit housing including a cup-shaped body, the bottom of which has a rim and at least one hole defining an annular sealing lip extending in the same direction therefrom through which hole an electrical connection pin extends in sealed relation thereto with the pin insulated by a protective insulating extension sleeve bonded to a sealing insulator, the extension sleeve being formed relative the sealing insulator member and lip extremity to contact the outer periphery of the lip to remove possible sealing insulator cracking to a position removed from the pin.

Sleeve arrangement for a hermetic terminal assembly
