A through capacitor which includes a generally cylindrical inner electrode having a through hole through which a lead terminal extends. The lead terminal has a protuberance adjacent to and axially outward of a first opening of the hole. A generally cylindrical outer electrode surrounds the inner electrode in radially spaced relation thereto. The lead terminal is fixed to the inner electrode with solder including a radially expanded portion of solder embedding the protuberance therein. The inner …

Use of molydenum-containing alloys to induce wetting by TA-23 glass in metallic feedthroughs.

A poke through includes a tube assembly having inner and outer tube sections that are slidably telescopically disposed together. A lip protrudes from the outer end of at least one of the tube sections. A cup is selectively and removably disposed on one of the tube sections. The cup has a body plate and a flange. A portion of the lip on the tube section on which the cup is disposed engages the front surface of the body plate. In one embodiment, an adjustable plug has a plurality of selectively re…

A through anchor in which residual stress caused by thermal contraction is dispersed so as to reduce risk of crack formation in a resin molding portion. The through anchor includes a metal plate and a resin molding portion covering a portion of the metal plate. Usually, residual stress due to thermal contraction (shrinkage) differences between the resin molding portion and the metal plate is high in regions near both ends of the boundary between the resin molding portion and the metal plate. A n…

A through anchor includes: a through anchor body that includes a through hole, through which the webbing belt passes, and a support, which is molded using a metal mold and forms part of an inner peripheral surface of the through hole, with a parting line produced during molding being formed on or near the support in the inner periphery of the through hole; and a low-friction member that passes through the through hole and is adhered onto the support, the low-friction member including modified po…

A through-flange for attaching a pipe to the curved sidewall of a vessel. A flange portion of the through-flange is contoured to match the curvature of the sidewall and thus can be glued directly to the sidewall. A retaining ring also being contoured to match the sidewall is inserted over a tubular portion of the through-flange.

A heat recoverable member is disposed about a utility carrier and positioned at least partially within an aperture. The heat recoverable member includes a heat expansible portion disposed within the aperture and a heat shrinkable portion coupled to the heat expansible portion. The heating of the heat recoverable member results in the heat expansible portion expanding in the aperture and the heat shrinkable portion shrinking about the utility carrier.

Copper cored intercell connecting elements which pass through cell partitions are welded on either side to upwardly depending posts from plate connector straps. The connector portion has a flange on one side of the partition and threading through to the other side, on which a washer-nut is tightened. Sealant is supplied in and around the cavity between the flange, the partition, and the washer-nut by means of a channel down through the partition from the top thereof.

A flow-through thermal detector for determining the temperature change resulting from a reaction in a fluid stream includes a pair of parallel fluid paths one of which carries the fluid stream in which the reaction occurs while the other carries a similar fluid without the occurrence of a reaction. The detector includes a temperature sensor for each path. The first of the sensors is mounted to sense the temperature of the reacting stream after said reaction has occurred while the second of the s…
