A method of producing a magnetic-inductive flow meter with at least one measurement tube, a magnetic field generating apparatus for generating a magnetic field which runs at least also perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the measurement tube, and two measurement electrodes, the measurement tube having a metallic base body provided with a thermoplastic cover layer, a virtual connecting line of the two measurement electrodes running perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field which is permeating the measurement tube perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the measurement tube. The penetration sites of the measurement tube at which the measurement electrodes penetrate the measurement tube are easily made liquid-tight by a liquid-tight connection which has been produced by heating of the cover layer at the penetration sites for sealing the thermoplastic cover layer of the measurement tube to the measurement electrodes.

Systems and methods are provided for a wiring harness for an aerial vehicle. A wing of the aerial vehicle comprises a pocket for insertion of the wiring harness. The wiring harness provides wiring and associated connections capable to attach to and power various components.

An exterior member attaching method includes four steps. In an exterior member loading step, an exterior member is loaded onto a base plate in a state where the electric wire regulation pins provided on the base plate pass through exterior member holes. In an electric wire loading step, the electric wire is placed on the exterior member along the electric wire regulation pins. In an exterior member temporary bonding step, the electric wire is nipped by temporarily bonding a second half of the exterior member on the movable temporary bonding portion to a first half of the exterior member on the base plate while pushing the electric wire regulation pins to the base plate side. In an exterior member actual bonding step, a bonding end edge is bonded by moving a bonding roller.

The invention relates to a connector (1) for data connections, in particular of the RJ type, with a latch element (6) for securing a connection to a counter-connector. In order to simplify a disconnection of the connector (1) and the counter-connector, even when the connection is secured by the latch connection, the invention provides that the connector (1) is provided with a gripping end (5, 5′) that is adapted to transfer the latch element (6) from its latch position (L) and to disconnect the connector (1) from the counter-connector by a single movement.

A light emitting apparatus includes a light source, a unitary formed heat sink with a plurality of heat dissipating fins, a lensed enclosure that retains a light source and at least one power consuming device other than the light source The lensed enclosure includes a recessed opening having at least a first wall that terminates at a substantially perpendicular second wall. The plurality of heat dissipating fins are disposed on at least one adjacent exterior side of the walled enclosure, the fins extending outwardly. At least one fin coupled to the heat sink extends beyond the light source, and the heat generated by the light source travels by conduction laterally through the heat sink to the at least one coupled fin.

A touch panel including a substrate, a plurality of first and second sensing series, and a plurality of conductive repairing pattern layers is provided. The first sensing series are disposed on the substrate and extended along a first direction. Each of the first sensing series includes a plurality of first sensing pads and first bridge lines, and the first bridge lines serially connect two adjacent first sensing pads. The second sensing series are disposed on the substrate and extended along a second direction. Each of the second sensing series includes a plurality of second sensing pads and second bridge lines, and the second bridge lines serially connect two adjacent second sensing pads. Each conductive repairing pattern layer electrically floating locates around the crossover region of the first and second sensing series. Two adjacent sensing pads are connected by the conductive repairing pattern layer after a repair procedure is finished.

An assembling method of an electric vehicle comprises the steps of: assembling a vehicle body including a frame, wheels and an electric motor; conducting a vehicle body test including confirmation of a state of driving power transmission from the electric motor to the wheels by connecting an electric power supply unit installed in a vehicle body test place to the electric motor of the vehicle body and supplying electric power from the electric power supply unit to the electric motor; detaching the electric power supply unit from the electric motor and transporting the vehicle body which has passed the vehicle body test from the vehicle body test place to a mounting place, in a state in which a battery is not mounted to the vehicle body; and mounting the battery to the transported vehicle body in the mounting place.

An electrical coupling device, such as a surge protector for a rail or other conductive structure, includes a pair of terminals, and a jumper for selectively electrically coupling and decoupling the terminals. Movement of the jumper may expose part of the jumper or one or both of the terminals, such as for use as a test point. A surge module with one or more surge protection features may fit into a base that includes the terminal and the jumper. The module may have an interface feature, such as a protruding post, that prevents engagement with the base if the base is not properly engaged with the rail or other structure. In one embodiment, a threaded rod may serve as the jumper and in one position electrically couples the terminals and in another position electrically decouples the terminals and one end of the threaded rod becomes exposed for use as a test point.
