|---|
| 20080236863 | Direct bury splice kit - A decoder system and a direct bury splice kit for in situ encapsulation of an electrical wire and wire connector wherein the encapsulation minimizes separating forces between the joined wires in the wire connector | 10-02-2008 |
| 20080254664 | Tracer wire connector kits - A ready to use tracer wire connector kit comprising a pod and cover that can be mated together around a tracer wire connector that can be retained in the pod or removed from the pod as the tracer wires are joined therein with the pod and cover encapsulating and protecting the junction of tracer wires in the tracer wire connector and a method and system wherein underground difficult to detect devices and systems can be indirectly located. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20090051126 | Leak proof pipe connections and leak proofing pipe connections - A sealing ring and a method of preventing or stopping a joint leak between a pipe and a pipe fitting to minimize property damage as well as clean up costs occurring from property damage due to joint leaks by securing a sealing ring to the pipe and the pipe fitting to form a secondary joint that inhibits or prevent leakage between the primary joint between the pipe and the pipe fitting. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090075526 | Junction failure inhibiting connector - An electrical connector for connecting wires including dissimilar electrical conductors such as copper and aluminum conductors with the electrical connector including failure inhibiting features that can include an oxidation inhibiting coating and a sealant. To ensure that a minimum pressure contact has been achieved at the interface between the electrical connector a shearable fastener can be used to secure an electrical conductor in the electrical connector. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20090230627 | Water systems - A sealing member and a preemptive system and a preemptive method of preventing or stopping a primary joint leak between a pipe and a pipe fitting by securing a sealing ring to the pipe and the pipe fitting to form a secondary joint that inhibits or prevent leakage between the primary joint between the pipe and the pipe fitting without knowing if the primary joint is faulty. | 09-17-2009 |
| 20100015839 | Lever waterproof wire connectors - A lever push-in wire connector having a sealant therein to enable formation of a waterproof electrical connection by axial insertion of a wire into a chamber contained a resilient conductor protected by the sealant with the resilient conductor displaceable into a waterproof electrical contact with the wire while both the resilient conductor and the wire remain in the presence of the sealant. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100038506 | Self-Connectors - A self-connector for attachment and detachment with the self connector comprising an rigid elongated member in a curved condition yet resilient with sufficient flexibility that the connectable ends of the self connector can be engaged or disengaged through flexing of the elongated member with the elongated member having sufficient resiliency to enable the connectable ends to be maintained in a connected condition when a circumferential force is applied to the self-connector. | 02-18-2010 |
| 20100064513 | Assembling sealant containing twist-on wire connectors - An improved method of making sealant containing twist-on wire connectors from a batch of components, wherein some of the components may be preassembled through automated equipment and at least one or more of the steps performed in the making of a sealant containing twist-on wire connector is performed manually at a station where an operator can simultaneously perform one or more steps to enhance the formation of a twist-on wire connector containing a sealant while at the same time eliminating upfront investments costs for a work station as well as costs for maintenance of a work station. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100084786 | Making twist-on wire connectors - A method of making a twist-on wire connector including a method of making a sealant containing twist-on wire connector by in situ formation of a shell around the coil wherein a sealant may be injected into a cavity in the coil prior to removing the shell from the mold to form a ready-to-use sealant containing twist on wire connector without further steps outside the mold. | 04-08-2010 |
| 20100086193 | Making sealant containing twist-on wire connectors - A system and a method of identifying, accepting or rejecting faulty sealant containing twist-on wire connectors wherein an image sensor generates an output image signal of a partly assembled twist-on wire connector or an assembled twist-on wire connector and compares the output image signal to a reference image signal to identify or reject a twist-on wire connector if the output image signal of the twist-on wire connector is outside an acceptable range and accept the twist-on wire connector if the output image signal is within the acceptable range. | 04-08-2010 |
| 20110088254 | Manufacture of waterproof wire connectors - A method of manufacturing gel containing wire connectors with a silicone gel that remains in an unseparated state wherein the temperature of the gel precursors are elevated before being mixed and dispensed into the cavity of a wire connector where the mixed gel precursors are allowed to cool and cure without the necessity of additional heating of either the mixed gel precursors or the wire connector. | 04-21-2011 |
| 20110143568 | Tracer wire connector kits - A ready to use tracer wire connector kit comprising a pod and cover that can be mated together around a tracer wire connector that can be retained in the pod or removed from the pod as the tracer wires are joined therein with the pod and cover encapsulating and protecting the junction of tracer wires in the tracer wire connector and a method and system wherein underground difficult to detect devices and systems can be indirectly located. | 06-16-2011 |
