NASA NTRS1971

Data sampling system for monitor and control station

System design is based on development of standardized, interchangeable modules that minimize power dissipation, interconnecting cables and size. Maximum flexibility is achieved by using building block approach where all data modules are identical and are connected at any remote location and addressed in random fashion from central unit.

Folding tool for preparing FCC molded-plug terminations

Assemblies consist of window piece, conductor spacer, insulator, outer seal, and molded portion that integrates all components. Preparation of FCC for molded plug termination requires that terminated ends of conductors in each cable be accurately folded simultaneously into spacer end and groove.

Multiedge slitter for FCC

Tool cuts multiple slits up to 3 in. long between conductors of flat conductor cables up to 3 in. wide to prepare them for termination on terminal boards or in multipin connectors.

Apparatus tests flexural durability of FCC

Device tests electric continuity of flat cable conductors, FCC, in temperature controlled environment. Test method is described.

Chambers, C. M.↗

Cold-blade stripper for polyimide and TFE insulation on FCC

Stripper removes insulation to any desired depth by adjusting the distance between the blade and the plates on either side of the flat conductor cable, FCC.

Angele, W.↗

NASA NTRS1971

Hot-blade stripper for polyester insulation on FCC

Stripper incorporates a blade which is electrically heated to a controlled temperature. Heated blade softens and strips insulation from cable while paper ribbon removes insulation material and keeps blade clean for next operation.

Handling fixture for soldering round wires to FCC

Fixture holds flat conductor cable and wires in position until after soldering of contacting conductor ends and potting of junctions. Device provides for proper spacing of wires and adequate access for soldered joints during fabrication, and positions mold halves during potting operation.

Contact-resistance test probes: A concept

Devices are used in inspection of contact resistance in plated connectors after assembly into cables. System permits rapid inspection of connectors when mating connectors or special apparatus are not available, and enables source of excessive resistance to be precisely determined.
