Abstract: A connector includes a first-housing, a second-housing, a shroud, and a stacked-gear. The stacked-gear is moveably mounted to the first-housing. The stacked-gear engages a first-gear-rack on the second-housing and a second-gear-rack on the shroud. The second-housing is mated with the first-housing when the shroud is moved along a mating-axis of the connector. The stacked-gear engages at least two teeth on the first-gear-rack and on the second-gear-rack when the second-housing is mated with the first-housing. A rotation of the stacked-gear is greater than ninety degrees when the shroud is moved from an unmated-position to a mated-position. The stacked-gear initially engages a first-side of a first-tooth of the first-gear-rack when the first-housing receives the second-housing. A uniform mating-force is maintained as the shroud is moved from an unmated-position to a mated-position. A mechanical advantage to produce the mating-force is increased as the shroud is moved from an unmated-position to a mated-position.

Abstract: A connector assembly includes a first-connector and a second-connector. The first-connector has a locking-lug. The second-connector has a cantilevered latch configured to slideably engage the locking-lug. The cantilevered latch includes a pair of parallel latch-arms. The pair of parallel latch-arms terminate at a first cross-beam that spans the pair of parallel latch-arms. The cantilevered latch further includes a second cross-beam parallel to the first cross-beam. The second cross-beam is configured to releasably lock the locking-lug when the first-connector is mated with the second-connector. The pair of parallel latch-arms includes a rib extending beyond a bottom-surface of each individual latch-arm. The locking-lug deflects the pair of parallel latch-arms toward an outer-surface of the second-connector when first-connector is moved from an unmated-position to a mated-position, whereby the rib contacts the outer-surface and limits a deflection of the pair of parallel latch-arms.

Abstract: A system for predicting a touch position of a pointer on a touch-enabled unit includes a 3D imaging unit, a processing unit coupled to the 3D imaging unit, and a touch-enabled unit coupled to the processing unit. The 3D imaging unit is configured to monitor an interaction zone in front of the touch-enabled unit. The processing unit includes a prediction module that is configured to predict where a pointer that approaches the touch-enabled unit and is monitored by the 3D imaging unit will touch the touch-enabled unit, and a calibration module that is configured to generate at least one calibration parameter by comparing the predicted touch position to the actual touch position of the pointer detected by the touch-enabled unit and to transfer the at least one calibration parameter to the prediction module in order to calibrate the prediction module.

The terminal includes an inner shield defining a shield cavity about a longitudinal axis. The shield cavity is configured to receive the corresponding shielded electrical terminal. The inner shield has a longitudinal inner seam substantially that is parallel to the longitudinal axis. The inner shield defines a plurality of resilient contact springs that protrude into the shield cavity. The contact springs are configured to contact the corresponding shielded electrical terminal. The terminal also includes an outer shield integrally formed with the inner shield and covering at least a portion of the inner shield. The terminal formed by this method is also presented.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a brazing method for joining substrates, in particular where one of the substrates is difficult to wet with molten braze material. The method includes formation of a porous metal layer on a first substrate to assist wetting of the first substrate with a molten braze metal, which in turn permits joining of the first substrate with a second substrate via a braze metal later in an assembled brazed joint. Ceramic substrates can be particularly difficult to wet with molten braze metals, and the disclosed method can be used to join a ceramic substrate to another substrate. The brazed joint can be incorporated into a solid-oxide fuel cell, for example as a stack component thereof, in particular when the first substrate is a ceramic substrate and the joined substrate is a metallic substrate.
