A terminal device for connecting an electrical conductor to another unit, e.g. in the form of a terminal strip, comprises a passage for inserting the insulation-stripped end of the conductor which is inclined to another passage in which a clamping screw is received. The screw has a conical nonthreaded portion which bears against the conductor when the screw is tightened and where the passages meet.

A C-clamp has a bearing pad at one end of the C-shaped frame configuration, and another bearing pad on a clamping shaft moveable axially in the other end of the frame. A replaceable force-transfer member interengages with one of the pads, and is preferably held in place with a spring-loaded detent.

A sealed terminal of invention is used for a metal vessel containing water and has improved characteristics such as anticorrosive characteristics, water sealing characteristic and high mechanical strength and insulating characteristic. A terminal conductor of an auxiliary anode is seal-bonded in a terminal opening of the metal vessel with an insulator comprising mica and glassy material and which is softened at a temperature lower than about 900.degree. C. and is plastic deformable under compres...

A terminal for use in a communication network having several terminal capability functions for realizing a multitude of terminal capability features. A terminal application execution apparatus is coupled to the terminal capability functions to interact with the terminal capability functions and to execute thereby a terminal application. The terminal includes at least one terminal capability server coupled between the terminal application execution apparatus and to the terminal capability functio...

An outer conductor (40) of a shield terminal (T) used by being connected with a shielded cable (10) is provided with a stabilizer (46) folded at an intermediate position such that an extending end thereof faces a main portion (41). Thus, even if shield terminals (T) touch each other during transportation, inadvertent deformations of tongue pieces (44) and the stabilizer (46) can be prevented since the leading end of the stabilizer (46) is a folded end to have a larger thickness as compared to co...

A retail terminal to register merchandise data such as a price of merchandise, amount of merchandise, a merchandise code and a merchandise name in a department store or a retail store is disclosed. The retail terminal includes a data buffer for temporarily storing the merchandise data of a plurality of items of merchandise item by item, the merchandise data stored item by item are summed upon the depression of a total key when the account for a customer has been completed and the sum is stored i...

A hollow sleeve is made from an electrically conductive material and is provided with an integral shelf having at least one hole extending through the shelf. A terminal pin extends through the hole in spaced relationship to the shelf. The terminal pin may be made from the electrically conductive material and may be clad with a noble metal such as platinum. Insulating material extends through the hole in the shelf and hermetically seals the hollow sleeve and the terminal pin. The insulating mater...

First and second members are disposed in spaced relationship to each other. The members may be electrically conductive. The first member may be provided with a particular coefficient of thermal expansion which is higher than the coefficient of the second member. A plurality of layers of insulating material are disposed between the first and second members and are hermetically sealed to one another and to the first and second members. Each of the layers of insulating material has a coefficient of...

A connector terminal for providing electric connection between the tab-like contactor of a fuse or a relay and a conductive path in a fuse box, relay box or the like having a multiplicity of conductor strips. The connector terminal has a base plate, opposing side walls standing upright from both sides of the base plate, slots formed in respective side walls to extend downwardly over a predetermined length from the upper ends of the side walls so as to divide respective side walls into first port...

A keyboard terminal for entering test programs written in an English-format computer programming language into computerized automatic test systems is disclosed. In response to the activation of selected user-activated keys associated with a programmable keyboard, a preprogrammed microprocessor control system generates word character strings corresponding to the words of a predetermined test programming language, thereby allowing single keystroke entry of test program words into a control compute...
