WIRE HARNESS MANUFACTURING SYSTEM
A wire harness manufacturing system includes a display unit, a wire cutting machine that draws an electric wire from a wire feed reel and cuts the electric wire to a predetermined length, a control unit that directs the display unit to display a wire laying image and wire work identification information for identifying a work regarding each electric wire, the wire laying image including a plurality of wire images showing the plurality of electric wire in the laid state and the wire work identification information being displayed in the vicinity of the corresponding wire image, and a memory unit that stores the wire laying image and work instruction information so as to correspond to the wire work identification information, the work instruction information including cut length of the electric wire. The control unit sends the cut length information to the wire cutting machine.
Moisture resistant air data probes
An air data probe includes a probe head defining a longitudinal axis between a forward tip and aft base. A port opening is defined in the forward tip. A first conduit is in fluid communication with the port opening to guide fluid flow from the port opening to a first chamber. The first chamber is downstream from the port opening. A second conduit, offset radially and circumferentially from the first conduit, is in fluid communication with the first chamber to guide fluid flow from the first chamber to a second chamber. The second chamber is downstream from the first chamber. The offset between the first and second conduits is configured to prevent particle ingestion from the port opening from entering the second conduit.
ARRANGEMENT FOR TRANSPORTING A WIRE FROM A WIRE PROCESSING MACHINE TO A DISCHARGING POINT
The invention relates to an arrangement for transporting a wire from an automatic wire processing machine to a discharging point, the arrangement comprising an automatic wire processing machine and an air pressure transport system, wherein a wire transfer interface between the automatic wire processing machine and the air pressure transport system comprises a wire receiving unit arranged in the access area of the automatic wire processing machine and a wire outlet which opens into at least one transport line of the air pressure transport system which is guided between the wire transfer interface and a discharging point.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DEPLOYMENT OF A DEVICE SYSTEM
A flexible device including a plurality of subassemblies, a connector depending from each of the subassemblies, a link connected to the connectors supplying a signal connection between the subassemblies.
CABLE PROCESSING COMPRISING INFEED AND OUTFEED
The invention relates to a cable-processing system comprising: a cable-processing machine (90), especially for automatically processing cable ends of long and/or heavy, relatively flexurally rigid pre-cut cables (80) in at least one cable-processing station (70a, 70b) of the cable-processing machine (90); and a cable transport device (10). The cable transport device (10) is designed with: a cable conveying device (320a, 320b) for transporting at least one of the cable ends (81) of the cable (80) into the at least one cable-processing station (70a, 70b); and a suspension transport device (50) which is designed to transport a cable offcut (80c, 80c1, 80c2) of the cable (80). This cable offcut (80c, 80c1, 80c2) is transported in a suspended manner, for example as a suspended cable wrap (80c). According to the invention, the suspension transport device (50) has at least one guide (51a, 51b, 51c, 51d) and a plurality of suspension transport units (53). These suspension transport units (53) can be displaced in the guide (51a, 51b, 51c, 51d) and are designed as suspensions for the cable offcut (80c, 80c1, 80c2). The suspension transport units (53) are designed in such a way that a cable offcut (80c, 80c1, 80c2) suspended therefrom can be rotated about a vertical axis with or on the suspension transport unit (53).
AIR DATA PROBES
An air data probe includes a probe head defining a longitudinal axis between a forward tip and aft base. A port opening is defined in the forward tip. A first conduit is in fluid communication with the port opening to guide fluid flow from the port opening to a first chamber. The first chamber is downstream from the port opening. A second conduit, offset radially and circumferentially from the first conduit, is in fluid communication with the first chamber to guide fluid flow from the first chamber to a second chamber. The second chamber is downstream from the first chamber. The offset between the first and second conduits is configured to prevent particle ingestion from the port opening from entering the second conduit.
TOOL FOR CABLE WINDING MACHINE AND METHODS
A tool for a cable winding machine includes a plate and at least one clamp assembly mounted to the plate. The clamp assembly includes a clamp pad movable toward and away from the plate between a clamped position and a released position. A shaft is secured to the center of the plate. The tool can be part of a cable winding machine that secures to a spool. The end of the cable can be releasably clamped between the clamp pad and the plate.
Kind of power paying-off cradle and power paying-off full-automatic stranding cable machine
A power paying-off cradle consisting of power paying-off component and framework. In the framework is a cavity with an upper opening; a wire tension balance mechanism is installed in the cavity; a displacement wheel is installed on the wire tension balance mechanism, and a position detector of the displacement wheel is installed on the inner side wall of the framework; a turning wheel is installed on the front top of the framework; a thread hole is installed in the front of the framework; wire on the paying-off spool enwinds the turning wheel and the displacement wheel successively and passes through the thread hole. The wire tension balance mechanism has damping effect on the displacement wheel. When the tension of the displacement wheel is greater than or less than the damping force, the displacement wheel moves in order to ensure consistency of the tension or the strain of wire.
Heated air data probes
An air data probe includes a probe head defining a longitudinal axis between a forward tip and aft base. The probe includes a thermocouple having a sense end in the forward tip to measure the temperature in the forward tip. The probe includes a port opening defined in a side of the probe head and opening at an angle with respect to the longitudinal axis. The probe includes a bulkhead within the probe head. The bulkhead has a chamber in fluid communication with the port opening. The chamber includes a single chamber inlet having an elongated cross-sectional shape. The single elongated chamber inlet is in fluid communication with two downstream pressure conduits to provide redundancy in case one of the two pressure conduits is blocked.
