Electric apparatus having distinct electric terminals has an input power terminal of electrically insulating material, including a base of electric insulating material having a first electric terminal base portion and a second electric base portion spaced from that first electric base portion, and a barrier wall of insulating material on that base acting as an isolator between the first and second electric terminals on these base portions, and preferably also as a standoff for a protective cover. A plurality of electric fuse holders in that or other electric apparatus may be mounted in mutually spaced relationship, and a heat sink including a frame around that plurality of mutually spaced electric fuse holders is in heat-transfer relationship with these electric fuse holders, and includes a cross-piece between each adjacent pair of the mutually spaced electric fuse holders. A flame-resistant designation card for that or other apparatus has a first data-bearing section, a second data-bearing section, a first folding crease between such first and second data-bearing sections, a shorter third section adjacent that second data-bearing section, and a second folding crease between the shorter third section and the second data-bearing section. Fuse condition designation flags are rendered better visible by service personnel and fuse rating designation pins are better organized. Ground wire terminals are safeguarded against rotation and loosening.

Electric apparatus with electric terminals and fused structures

Disclosed is a new machine for forming containers of the type described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,497,939 without the use of glue or nails. The machine utilizes a mandrel movably mounted on a path for oscillation between retracted and extended positions. As the mandrel cycles forward, it first receives two synthetic sidewalls and then a deformable body panel of the container to be formed. Then a set of moveable upper and lower rockers containing unique pressure mechanisms press tabs on the horizontally oriented portion of the wrap into corresponding locking slots on the ends of the sidewalls. When the mandrel is fully extended, pressure is applied to the tabs on the vertically oriented middle section of the wrap using a pair of hinge-mounted pressure plates fitted with unique biased brackets. The resulting container is removed from the machine, which is then ready to begin another cycle.

Container forming method and apparatus

A serial communication system for two IC devices has a separate master chip connected to both of the IC devices, the master chip having a clock generator and circuitry for affecting serial data transmission and control between the master chip and the devices. There is a slave component on each IC device for transforming data between parallel and serial data formats and for sending and receiving a serial data stream. The master chip provides a clock signal to both slave components for gating serial data communication, and manages all communication between the two slave components. In a preferred embodiment all circuitry in the slave components is digital circuitry, and all analog circuitry is implemented on the master chip. Also in a preferred embodiment each slave periodically checks phase between data stream and clock stream received, and inserts a correction code in the data stream sent back to the master chip, so the master chip can regularly correct the phase for clock and data sent to each slave.

Method and apparatus for accomplishing high bandwidth serial communication between semiconductor devices

Disclosed is a new machine for forming strong, durable and recyclable containers of the type described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,497,939 without the use of glue or nails which are ready to be loaded, closed, stacked and shipped. The machine utilizes a mandrel movably mounted on a path between retracted and extended positions. As the mandrel cycles forward, it first receives two synthetic sidewalls of the container to be formed, which are firmly compressed against the sides of the mandrel as it moves forward. The mandrel next encounters the body panel or wrap of the container to be formed, said wrap including a plurality of tabs along the edges of its two longer sides which correspond to locking slots on the sidewalls. As the mandrel moves forward, it pushes into the middle of the wrap whereupon a set of plows and shoes bend the upper and lower portions of the wrap into a more horizontal orientation, leaving the middle of the wrap in a vertical position. As the mandrel pushes the wrap through the machine, a set of moveable upper and lower rockers containing unique pressure mechanisms press the tabs on the horizontally oriented portion of the wrap into the locking slots on the ends of the sidewalls. When the mandrel is fully extended, pressure is applied to the tabs on the vertically oriented middle section of the wrap to form the bottom of the container using a pair of hinge-mounted pressure plates fitted with unique biased brackets.
