US Patent:

8350406, Jan 8, 2013
Filed:

Apr 18, 2012
Appl. No.:

13/449701
Inventors:

Norman R. Byrne - Ada MI, US
Timothy J. Warwick - Sparta MI, US
Shawn R. Gibson - Fremont MI, US
International Classification:

H02J 3/14
US Classification:

307 38
Abstract:

An electrical power distribution system automatically limits the number of substantially similar or identical power cable assemblies that are electrically energizable from a power source. A control unit is connected between the power source and the power cable assemblies, and limits the number of power cable assemblies that can be energized in the system by sensing the voltage in a sensing circuit. An applied voltage in the sensing circuit changes in a predictable manner corresponding to the number of power cable assemblies that are electrically connected in the circuit. Each power cable assembly includes an impedance element that is added to the sensing circuit when the corresponding power cable assembly is coupled to the system, and once the detected voltage is beyond a predetermined threshold value, the control unit will ensure that the power cable assemblies are not energized by the power source.

US Patent:

8512065, Aug 20, 2013
Filed:

Mar 12, 2012
Appl. No.:

13/418106
Inventors:

Norman R. Byrne - Ada MI, US
Matthew Robert Andree - Rockford MI, US
Randell Ernest Pate - Jenison MI, US
Timothy John Warwick - Sparta MI, US
International Classification:

H01R 4/24
US Classification:

439391, 439417, 439685
Abstract:

A receptacle comprises a simplex body with a front portion and terminals. A rear housing encloses female connectors and a ground connector, which are attached to corresponding terminals. Insulation displacers comprise conductive elements that cut through insulation on each side of power-supply wires. Features of both waterproofing and insulation displacement are therefore combined.

US Patent:

20110089768, Apr 21, 2011
Filed:

Sep 24, 2010
Appl. No.:

12/889914
Inventors:

Norman R. Byrne - Ada MI, US
Robert L. Knapp - Rockford MI, US
Timothy Warwick - Sparta MI, US
International Classification:

H01F 38/14
US Classification:

307104
Abstract:

A power transfer system () is used with a primary table () and one or more secondary tables (). Incoming power is supplied from a source outlet receptacle block () to raceway assemblies () and an energy center () on the primary table (). The raceway assemblies () are connected to a primary winding circuit () having a primary winding (). A secondary table () also includes raceway assemblies () connected to a secondary winding circuit (). When the tables () are in close proximity, magnetic flux generated from current flowing through the primary winding () commonly flows through the secondary winding (), thereby inductively generating power which can be applied to the raceway assemblies () associated with the secondary table ().

Filed:

Sep 7, 2010
Appl. No.:

13/498509
Inventors:

Norman R. Byrne - Ada MI, US
Randell E. Pate - Jenison MI, US
Timothy J. Warwick - Sparta MI, US
International Classification:

H01R 24/00
US Classification:

439650
Abstract:

A mechanical outlet system is connected to an incoming power source through power entry cables. The cables connect to cable connectors which, in turn, connect to junction blocks. The junction blocks receive outlet receptacle blocks. The receptacle blocks can be of varying types of sockets, without requiring electrical modifications to the junction blocks.

F21V 21/30
F21V 21/22
F21V 7/00
US Classification:

362285, 362419, 362421
Abstract:

A retractable lamp assembly is provided for illuminating at least a portion of a work surface from a wide range of heights and angles by way of extendable shafts and pivot joints. The lamp may be stowed in a retracted or lowered configuration when not in use, in which a substantial portion of the extendable structure is stowed inside of a housing that is located substantially below the work surface, to provide a generally unobtrusive configuration. An upper cover serves as a light reflector when the lamp is in use, and may serve as a cover positioned at or near the work surface when the lamp is stowed. Optionally, the lamp assembly includes include power and data and wire management capabilities for use at the work surface.
