US Patent:

43938345, Jul 19, 1983

Filed:

Feb 12, 1982

Appl. No.:

6/348478

Inventors:

John Doherty - Assonet MA

Assignee:

Texas Instruments Incorporated - Dallas TX

International Classification:

F02D 104

US Classification:

123339

Abstract:

A thermally responsive electrical switch for a fast idle control in an automotive engine has two thermally responsive snap acting discs disposed in an open-ended well in a thermally conducting housing. A switch means having contacts movable between open and closed circuit positions is disposed in the open end of the well and the discs are arranged to snap at respective first and second temperatures. Resilient conductors are mounted on the switch means and are electrically connected to the respective contacts. A terminal member which completes the low cost assembly is secured to the housing to press terminals of different selected types against the resilient conductors to electrically connect the terminals to the respective switch contacts and to resiliently hold the switch means in place in the housing. The switch terminals are connected to a power source and to an electronic control for fast idle means and the switch housing is disposed in heat-transfer relation to the automotive engine to provide digital signals for regulating the control to actuate the fast idle means below the first temperature during engine warm-up, to deactuate the fast idle means when the engine heats above the first temperature during normal engine running, and to reactuate the fast idle means if the engine heats above the second temperature during extended standing or idling operation of the engine.

Filed:

Sep 17, 1976

Appl. No.:

5/724182

Inventors:

John Doherty - Assonet MA

Assignee:

Texas Instruments Incorporated - Dallas TX

International Classification:

G05D 2310

US Classification:

236 48R

Abstract:

An improved multi-function, thermal valve assembly has four ports with two passages sealingly separated one from another; the first passage connecting the first two ports and the second passage connecting the second two ports. Each of the passages has a valve seat contained therein. The valve assembly employs at least one thermally responsive actuating member which is actuable to move a valve switching means in each of the two passages simultaneously to either open or close one or both of the valve seats contained in the two passages thereby changing communication between the first two ports and between the second two ports.

Appl. No.:

7/158571

Inventors:

John P. Doherty - Charlestown MA

International Classification:

A47L 1112
A47L 1308

US Classification:

1523601

Abstract:

An adapter is disclosed for converting a portable jigsaw into a hand-held instrument for removing wallpaper. The adapter includes an extension clamped to the table of the jigsaw that both provides structural strength as well as a reciprocating blade mount. The extension is preferably formed of plastic.

Assignee:

Honeywell Information Systems Inc. - Waltham MA

International Classification:

G03B 2702

US Classification:

364525

Abstract:

A photograph artwork containing a one to one scale exact image of the circuit pattern to appear on a fabricated printed-wiring board is modified in a predetermined manner. This has the effect of equalizing the amount of metallic conductive circuits on a double sided printed wiring board or panel. The resulting board or panel is plated uniformly on both sides when passed through the electrodeposition cycle of a fabrication process.

Filed:

Nov 25, 1983

Appl. No.:

6/555246

Inventors:

John Doherty - Assonet MA

Assignee:

Texas Instruments Incorporated - Dallas TX

International Classification:

H01H 3754

US Classification:

337365

Abstract:

An externally threaded grounded metal housing mounting a snap acting disc at a closed end is shown to receive an electrically insulative body mounting an "L" shaped movable contact member having an upstanding leg biased into contact with the internal surface of the housing wall and a laterally extending movable contact leg with a tongue cut and bent out from the leg and engageable with the snap acting disc. A terminal is pushed into a slot of the body and mounts at its free distal end a stationary contact. The mounting surface for the movable contact member is skewed relative to the lid terminal slot in order to obtain a longer effective movable contact arm.

Inventors:

Jean-Pierre Chalmin - Plainville MA
John Doherty - Assonet MA

Assignee:

Texas Instruments Incorporated - Dallas TX

International Classification:

G05D 2310

US Classification:

236 48R

Abstract:

An improved thermally actuated valve assembly having a double throw feature comprises three ports in which two passage routes are provided through the valve; one passage route connecting ports one and two and the other passage route connecting ports two and three. A snap acting strip type bimetallic member vertically mounted in the valve serves as a thermal element and valve member to cause a change in communication from one of the passage routes to the other.

Inventors:

John P. Doherty - Charlestown MA

International Classification:

B24B 2300

US Classification:

51170TL

Abstract:

An adapter is disclosed for converting a portable jigsaw into a hand-held instrument for removing wallpaper. The adapter includes an extension clamped to the table of the jigsaw that both provides structural strength as well as a reciprocating blade mount. The extension is preferably formed of plastic. In an alternative embodiment, instead of the reciprocating blade, a sander is mounted to the reciprocating portion of the extension.
