| 20080223971 | TAPE REEL, RECORDING TAPE CARTRIDGE, TAKE-UP REEL, DRAWING-OUT MEMBER, AND DRIVE DEVICE - A tape reel, a recording tape cartridge, a take-up reel, and a drive device, in which displacement of recording tape in an axial direction of a hub may be suppressed during traveling and occurrence of reading errors of servo signals and recording/reproducing errors of data signals may be suppressed are obtained. The reel hub is integrally formed with a lower flange and a radius of the reel hub on an upper flange side is greater than a radius on a lower flange side. By winding the recording tape T around the reel hub in such a manner that a side having a smaller radius of curvature of a tape edge is on the lower flange side of the reel hub, the displacement of the recording tape T in the axial direction of the reel hub during traveling is suppressed. As a result, recording and reproducing errors of servo signals and recording signals may be suppressed and reduction of so-called position error signals and off-track errors may be expected even in a case of high-density recording. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080245918 | Reel Furnace Having a Strip Reeling Device - In a reel furnace having a strip reeling device, the strip reeling device comprising a reel shaft, a reel drum supported on the reel shaft and at least one stirrup clamp, the reel shaft passing through a furnace wall delimiting the inner space of the reel furnace and being supported rotatably in supporting bearings outside the reel furnace, the reel drum and the at least one stirrup clamp being positioned with respect to one another by means of a connection element, and a gap for receiving a strip head being set between the reel drum and the at least one stirrup clamp. The useful life of the reel drum is appreciably increased and a strip thickness-dependent setting of the entry gap for the hot-rolled strip is ensured when the reel drum is designed as a closed body and the connection element is designed as an actuating device for fixing a specific gap width between the reel drum and the stirrup clamp and for clamping a strip head which has entered the gap. | 10-09-2008 |
| 20080245919 | Cable Storage Device - The present invention is an improved cable/cord storage device. The cable management device includes first and second expanded regions, a medial region, and at least one channel with a resealable slit. The first and second expanded regions are respectively wider than the medial region. The at least one channel includes an opening on the first region, an opening on the medial region, and an internal cavity therebetween. The internal cavity may be intentionally exposed via a resealable slit to allow a cable to be routed through the internal cavity between the openings. Upon release, slit automatically reseals, thereby reliably supporting the cable. A second embodiment includes two such channels, one in each expanded region. An improved embodiment features transition zones at the origin and terminus of each channel, a rounded edge to each slit, and transitioning curvature of the medial region. | 10-09-2008 |
| 20090039193 | ANTI-FOULING DEVICE HAVING A CAPSTAN WITH A NON-DRIVEN SLOPED BODY - A cable puller assembly includes a housing assembly, a motor assembly and an anti-fouling device. The motor assembly is secured to the housing assembly and has an output shaft extending outwardly therefrom. The output shaft is rotated about an axis of rotation by the motor assembly. The anti-fouling device has a capstan and a body. The output shaft is operatively associated with the capstan in order to rotate the capstan about the axis of rotation. The body is positioned around an end portion of the capstan proximate to the housing assembly. The body defines a sloped surface that biases incoming rope that wraps around the sloped surface down onto the capstan. | 02-12-2009 |

| 20110259992 | Storage Reel for Electronic Cable - A reel for a microphone cable, amplifier cable or other electronic cord or cable has an arbor or hub that divides the reel into an interior space and a winding space. The cable leading end connector cable is retained in the interior space. Turns of the main body of the cable are coiled in the winding space. The rims of the reel side disks have annular retaining beads or ridges that face one another and create a snap connector holder for the trailing end connector. A gap in the retaining beads aligned with the arbor opening permits insertion of the leading end connector. The reel can be available in a range of sizes and can be color-coded. The reel can be constructed of two identical molded reel halves. | 10-27-2011 |
| 20130146700 | AERIAL REEL - An aerial reel that can be suspended from a helicopter for laying out and picking up a flexible length of material, such as a fire hose, is described. The aerial reel includes a rotatable spool for winding and unwinding the hose around, a pick-up member attached to the spool for automatically or manually connecting to the fire hose, an actuatable drive system engaged with the spool for rotating the spool in either direction, and a frame with an attachment system for connecting the spool to the helicopter. The aerial reel is controlled by the helicopter pilot through the cockpit controls, and does not require the use of a person on the ground when laying out and picking up the fire hose. | 06-13-2013 |
| 20130240655 | WEBBING RETRACTOR - In a webbing retractor, a press insertion portion of a sleeve provided to a webbing take-up shaft is press-inserted into a press insertion hole of a clutch base. Ribs are provided to an inner peripheral face of the press insertion hole, thereby enabling rattling between the sleeve and the clutch base to be suppressed. An end face of each rib on the opposite side to the press insertion direction of the press insertion portion is configured with a sloping faces that slopes along the press insertion direction, and so the sloping face makes sliding contact with the press insertion portion when the press insertion portion is being press-inserted into the press insertion hole. Burrs due to the press insertion portion being cut by the ribs can accordingly be prevented or suppressed from generating. | 09-19-2013 |
| 20130284844 | PAYOUT SPOOL WITH AUTOMATIC CABLE DISCONNECT/RECONNECT - A payout spool for a cable includes a base, a spool, and a disconnect/reconnect device. The cable extends between a first and a second end. The payout spool pays out the cable when the first end of the cable is pulled away from the payout spool. The base includes a terminal for transmitting and/or receiving a signal to and/or from the cable. The spool is rotatably mounted to the base about an axis. The spool is adapted to unwrap the cable about a wrapping area of the spool when the spool is rotated about the axis. The disconnect/reconnect device may be adapted to disconnect the second end of the cable from the terminal when the payout spool pays out the cable and reconnect the same when the payout spool is not paying out the cable. | 10-31-2013 |
