Tangleproof Rotary Electrical Coupling
Abstract
New rotary coupling connects large number of electrical cables to turntable without stressing cables or tangling them. Device accommodates 246 cables containing total of 758 conductors and allows turntable to rotate through arc of 320 degrees. At extremes of rotation, cables are loose enough that they are not pulled taut and overstressed. At halfway point, cables are not so loose that they become entangled.
