| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 7369031 | Potentiometer A non-contact type potentiometer with high resolution of rotation amount detection applicable to endlessly multiple rotations. The potentiometer has an endlessly rotatable first shaft, a first detection unit that magnetically detects a rotation angle of the first sh... | 05/06/2008 |
| 7320363 | Energized slip ring assembly A slip ring assembly including a slip ring and an electrical contact assembly. The slip ring defines a circumference and an electrical contact groove extending around the circumference of the slip ring. The electrical contact assembly preferably includes a plurality... | 01/22/2008 |
| 7313943 | Adjustable encoder for clutch actuation control system An adjustable position sensor is provided suitable for use with a clutch actuation control system. The position sensor includes: a rotatable shaft adapted to engage a control gear of the clutch actuation control system; and an encoder having a position indicator adj... | 01/01/2008 |
| 5187464 | Extended life potentiometric position transducer A potentiometric position transducer comprises a resistive track movably mounted within a housing. A portion of the resistive track is between two fixed electrical contact points. A third electrical contact is moveable over such portion, corresponding to ... | 02/16/1993 |
