    Sensors are used in a wide variety of operating environments to monitor operational and environmental properties. These sensors may be, for example, temperature sensors, pressure sensors, speed sensors, position sensors, motion sensors, current sensors, voltage sensors and impedance sensors. They are placed in the operating environment or connected to the operating environment that is being monitored and are designed to generate an electrical signal or possess an electrical characteristic, such as impedance, voltage or current, in response to the changes in the values varies as the monitored operating characteristics or environmental characteristics change.
    Temperature sensors have numerous components, such as a temperature measuring element, various electrical lines, resistors, diodes and switches. In general, the temperature probes are exposed to a harsh environment that can easily damage the components of the temperature probes. In addition, the temperature sensor is exposed to mechanical stress due to vibrations from surrounding machinery. In order to reduce potential damage to the probe due to mechanical or environmental stress, various packaging measures have been taken to protect the sensing circuitry of the probe. However, these packaging measures and the manufacturing methods used often result in premature failure or degradation of the temperature sensors.

    DETAILED DESCRIPTION
    The following description is merely exemplary in nature and is not intended to limit the present disclosure or the applications or uses of the disclosure.
    Referring to FIG. 1, a temperature sensor assembly in accordance with the present disclosure is shown and designated generally by reference numeral 10. The temperature sensor assembly 10 generally includes a temperature sensor 12 having a tip cap 14 (preferably a metal alloy) at one end of a probe body 16 (preferably a mineral insulated (M1) cable). A mounting connector 18 is secured to the sensor body 16 and a collar 20 is positioned between the tip cap 14 and the mounting connector 18. A transition member 22 covers a second end 24 of the probe body 16 and has a major portion 27 which includes a bushing sleeve 23, not shown in FIG. 1 (see FIG. 5). The grommet has two channels that enclose connectors, which terminate conductors of the temperature sensor 12 to the connecting cables 26. The more detailed details of the grommet, its channels, the connectors and the conductors are described in more detail below.
    A housing receives the connection cable 26 and has an output part for connection to a temperature measuring system and the supply of a temperature curve. Circuitry, not shown, is enclosed in the housing 28 and is configured to receive the temperature signal from the temperature sensor 12 and to generate a temperature response in response to the received temperature signal.
    The temperature sensor 12 may comprise a mineral insulated (Ml) cable 16 in which one or more conductors are included, or it may be a conductor surrounded by a conductor such as compacted powder. The Ml-cable may comprise a resistance heating element or two resistance heating elements or conductors embedded in highly dense magnesium oxide coated, for example, with a sheath of copper or of a stainless steel alloy 825. The specification of the MI cable 16 is based, at least in part, on the requirements for the application and the associated conductivity, resistance, and sheath material.
    The mounting connector 18 is adapted to attach the temperature sensor 12 to a mounting device in a working environment. Such an arrangement may be something as simple as a bracket or bracket, or it may include a nut, flange, rotatable connection, or other device. For example, in some embodiments, the mounting connector 18 has a sealing ring or collar 20 for mounting the temperature sensor in a temperature sensing environment, which is then sealed by the mounting plug 18. In one embodiment, the mounting plug 18 may be a high strength nut (in the form of a hex nut or other geometry) of powdered metal. In these embodiments, the powder metal nut may provide for inexpensive attachment of the temperature sensor 12 in a harsh or enclosed environment, such as in an engine, in a power plant, in a flow, or in a chemical process.
    The connection cables 26 have one or more cables corresponding to one or more conductors within the temperature sensor 12. Each connection cable 26 has a first end 32 and a second end 34 and may be, inter alia, stranded wire or solid wire. The transition element 22 is formed in such a way as to connect each of the conductors to one end of the connection cable 26 or to support the connection, as will be described in more detail below.
    The housing 28 also has an input portion 36 for receiving one end of the connection cable 26. The output portion 30 of the housing 28 connects to a temperature measuring system and provides a temperature curve or multiple temperature curves. Circuitry, not shown, is enclosed within the housing 28 and is configured to receive the temperature signal from one or more temperature sensors 12 (and / or temperature sensors) 12 and generate the temperature curves in response to the received temperature signals.
    The temperature sensor may be any type of sensor, i.a. a thermocouple, a thermistor or a resistance temperature detector. In one example, the sensor is a thermocouple that may be formed by connecting the conductors (ungrounded thermocouple) or connecting to the probe body (grounded thermocouple). The temperature signal usually contains a voltage level generated by the thermocouple. In such an exemplary embodiment, a cold junction compensation circuit may be implemented within the sensor assembly or within the circuit or within the housing 28. The generated temperature curve may be any curve that is desirable and convenient to provide information in response to the temperature signal and as required or desired by the application. This may include, for example, a resistance, frequency, digital pulse current, current, impedance or voltage.
    The circuitry receives the one or more temperature signals from a sensor and / or temperature sensor 12 or more sensors and / or temperature sensors 12, and may generate an output signal or output characteristic in response to the signals. These output characteristics may include, for example, a radiometric analog voltage signal (RAVS), a pulse width modulated signal, a variable frequency signal, a variable output impedance, a variable voltage signal, and a variable current signal.
    In some embodiments, the circuitry may be configured to generate a digital signal including the temperature curve, wherein the circuit and the housing are each for connection to a connected component, to a connected network, to a connected meter or to a connected connected controllers, such as a motor control module, are suitable. For example, they may be suitable for connection via any known telecommunications device including cable connection or wireless connection. In addition, this may include, for example, communication protocols such as CAN (Controller Area Network), but is not intended to be so limited. CAN is simply one example of a known and widely used communications protocol that can be implemented by the circuit and the chassis. In addition, proprietary interfaces and communication protocols can also be implemented. The circuitry and other details of the package are described in the co-pending patent application entitled " Sensor Adapter Circuit and Enclosure Arrangement & Manufacturing Method " which was filed concurrently with the present application on June 22, 2007, and which has been assigned together with the present application, the content of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety in this specification.
    Referring now to FIGS. 2A and 2B, another form of temperature sensor assembly constructed in accordance with the principles of the present disclosure is illustrated and designated generally by reference numeral 50. In this form, the connection cables 54 are contained in the cable protection covers 58 and the tip caps 60 are in opposite directions to measure the temperature in two different areas. Accordingly, the temperature sensor assembly 50 has a first temperature sensor 52, a second temperature sensor 53, and an adapter circuitry 62. Each sensor 52, 53 may include a sensor body such as a cable 80, which includes a temperature sensor, not shown, and a conductor or a plurality of conductors, which are connected to the temperature sensor. Each sensor 52, 53 is configured to provide one or more temperature signals indicative of a temperature around an outer portion of the probe 53, 53. The adapter circuitry 62 has inputs for receiving the temperature signals and an output 53 for connection to a temperature sensing system and delivery of one or more temperature curves in response to the received temperature signals. A circuit is enclosed within housing 56 and is configured with electronic circuit components and software, such as computer-executable instructions, to receive the temperature signals and generate the temperature curves in response to the one or more temperature signals.
    As shown in FIG. 2B, in some embodiments, the cable shields 58 may be removed because this cover is free. The cable shields 58 may cover all or only a portion of the cables between the temperature sensors 12 and the housing 56. Referring to FIG. 2A, the cable guard covers 58 are shown extending from the housing 56 via the transition members 86 to an area near the cuffs 84.
    As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, an adapter circuitry 62 is assembled from twin core interconnection cables 54 which lead to connectors 70 which pass through the housing base 72 and into a cavity 73 formed in the housing base 72 is formed. The connectors 70 are in electrical contact with the circuit board 66 and its circuit components 68 to provide the temperature signals, as discussed above. Also, the cavity 73 is surrounded by a cover 74, which may be a potting compound in another form of the present disclosure, or which is used with a potting compound in still another form, and in this way the cavity and the electronics inside it protects.
    Referring to Figs. 4A to 4C, the two probes 52 and 53, along with their various components and assembly, are illustrated prior to attachment to the connection cables 54. The probes 52, 53 are preferably constructed with cables 80 or sensor tubes having intermediate arcs of about 90 degrees from the tip cap 60 to the transition element 86. The components of the probes 52, 53 comprise the cable 80, preferably Ml-cable, having a curvature of about 90 degrees, a mounting connector 82, a collar 84 and a transition member 86, wherein the transition member 86, a main piece 87 and a Bushing 88 has. The connection cables 54 are connected by the transition member 86 for connection to the housing, not shown, which is described in more detail below.
    In Fig. 5, various components of the temperature sensor assembly 50 are illustrated and described with reference to their sequential assembly. As shown by way of example in FIGS. 4A to 4C, the probes 52, 53 may be assembled from a selection of components shown in an exemplary embodiment of a disassembled kit in FIG. The kit of FIG. 5 has conductors 90, connectors 92, connection cable 54 with connection wires 55, an insulator 96, a tube 94, a transition element 22/86 with main piece 27/87 and a bushing 23/88, a mounting connector 18, a Cuff 20/84, a tip cap 14/60 and a disc for the top 93 on. The assembly or assembly of these components, which may form a kit, is described below.
    Fig. 6 illustrates an embodiment of connectors 92 for connection of the conductors 90 of the temperature sensor by crimping and crimping the connection wires 55 of the sensor to a second, opposite end of each connector 92. As shown in Fig. 6, the Connectors 92 for an inline crimp between the 6/47 Austrian Patent Office AT12 799U1 2012-11-15
    Lead wires 55 and the conductors 90 have a straight configuration. When assembled, the connectors 92 are each within their own channel in the grommet 88 which is included in the transition member 86. In some embodiments, the connector 92 includes a metal that may be welded such that a conductor 90 and / or a cable 54 may be welded to the connector 92 after compression engagement with the connector 92, such as by crimping.
    Turning now to FIGS. 7A-7L and the flowchart of FIG. 8, various exemplary embodiments of the parts of a temperature sensor assembly kit, such as the kit of FIG. 5, and methods of fabricating temperature sensor assemblies will be described illustrated.
    Fig. 7A illustrates the unassembled connection of the formed conductors 90 of the sensor to the connectors 92, and the connectors 92 to the connection cables 26/54. Figure 7B illustrates the connection of the conductors 90 of the sensor after crimping to the connectors 92, showing how the manufacturing step maintains a physical separation between each of the connectors 92. Figure 7C illustrates the assembly of the conductors 90 of the sensor, the connectors 92 and the connection cables 26/54 after crimping the connection cables 26/54 to a second end of each connector 92. The other components for the temperature sensor assembly 10, 50 are also in its unassembled state illustrates as another embodiment of the components of the sensor kit. These components comprise an insulator 96, a tube 94, a transition element 22/86 with a main piece 27/87 and a grommet 23/88, a mounting connector 18, a collar 20/84, a tip cap 14/60 and a disc for the Top 93 on. The following paragraphs describe how each of these components can be added to the array.
    Fig. 7D illustrates the arrangement of attaching the conductors 90 to the connection cables 54 via the connectors 92 and attaching the attached parts within individual channels of the grommet 23/88 while still maintaining a physical separation of the connectors 92 from each other. In other embodiments, the conductors 90 may be welded to the connection cables 26/54 or attached directly to the connection cables 26/88 in a manner that may be included within the channels of the grommet 23/88. As an exemplary embodiment, FIG. 7E shows cross-sectional details of the grommet 23/88 illustrating the individual channels 89 within the grommet 23/88 to maintain the physical separation of the connectors 92. As shown, the channels 89 may be stepped, with two sections each coupled in series and each having a different diameter or channel width.
    FIG. 7F further shows an embodiment of a temperature sensor having two conductors 90 of the sensor attached to connectors, not shown, and connecting cables 26/54 attached to the connectors 92, the attachments within the stepped channels 89 of FIGS Passage sleeve 23/88 are arranged. The conductors 90 of FIG. 7F are each formed to extend outwardly from a longitudinal axis, which may facilitate crimping the conductors 90 to the connectors 92.
    Fig. 7G shows the mounting of an insulator 96 via sensor conductors 90. The probe may have a tube 94 or sheath which may be mounted to the insulator 96 in an embodiment in which no bent Ml- Cable 80 is used for the probe body. Figure 7H shows the main piece 27/87 mounted over the grommet 23/88 and at one end of the insulator 96.
    FIG. 7I shows the arrangement of FIGS. 7G and 7H with the tube 94 positioned over the insulator 96. The main piece 27/87, for example, be attached by welding to the metal body of the tube 94.
    Fig. 7J shows the mounting connector 18/82, which is rotatably mounted around the main part of the probe AT 12 799 U1 2012-11-15 sensor, which in this example is the tube 94th FIG. 7K shows the sleeve 20/84 disposed between the sensing end 21 of the probe and the mounting connector 18/82. The collar 20/84 is attached to the probe body (tube 94) by, for example, welding or otherwise. The collar 20/84 is preferably attached to the surface of the probe body or tube 94 and forms an airtight seal in some embodiments. The mounting connector 18/82 and the cuff 20/84 are each suitable for mounting the temperature sensor 12/52 to a mounting surface, such as by screwing the mounting connector 18/82 in a threaded hole and, for example, sealing the sleeve 20/84 and the mounting connector 18/82 against the mounting surface.
    Fig. 7L shows the placement of a tip cap 14/60 and / or a washer for the tip 93, which can be attached by welding, for example, to the end of the metal tube 94 of the probe or to the M1 cable to the temperature sensor enclose. In some embodiments, the end of the Ml tube 94 or the probe body may be left open and not sealed.
    This method is also described in Fig. 8 as an exemplary embodiment of a manufacturing and assembly process. The method 3000 includes a step 3002 of attaching a first cable to a first end of a first conductor and attaching a second cable to a first end of a second conductor, another step 3004 of attaching a grommet to a first channel over the attachment of the first Cable to the first conductor and having a second channel over the attachment of the second cable to the second conductor; a further step 3006 of attaching a transitional main piece over the first and second conductors and around the grommet for securing the grommet and the fixtures within a conduit Cavity of the transition hub, a further step 3008 of inserting each conductor into a channel of an insulator, a further step 301, connecting the first end of the first conductor to the first end of the second conductor to form a thermocouple junction at a first end de the insulator, a further step 3014 of attaching the transitional main piece at a second end of a sensor main body, a further step 3016 of positioning a mounting connector around the outer surface of the sensor main body between a first end and the second end of the sensor main body, and a further step 3018 attaching a collar to the outer surface of the probe body between the first end of the probe body and the mounting connector. The method 3000 may also include a step 3020 of attaching a second end of the first cable to an input of a housing and attaching a second end of the second cable to an input of the housing. This step 3020 may also include attaching a second end of the first cable to a circuit board and attaching a second end of the second cable to the circuit board.
    In further embodiments, the method 3000 may include a step 3022 of attaching a cover over the cables or over part of the cables. For example, the cover could extend from the transitional main body or probe to an input of the housing, with a portion of the first and second cables trapped within the cover between the transitional main body and the housing. In still other embodiments, the method 3000 may include a step 3024 of bending an intermediate portion of the probe body between the transitional main body and the mounting connector to form an angle, such as a 90 degree angle.
    The method 3000 may also include a step 3026 of connecting the first cable and the second cable to a circuit enclosed in a housing assembly having an input for receiving a second end of the cables, the circuit thus is configured to receive a temperature signal from the temperature sensor, for example a thermocouple, and to generate the temperature curve in response to the received temperature signal.

    With reference to Figs. 9, 10A to 10N and the flowchart of Fig. 11, various embodiments of parts of the temperature sensor assembly (or kit as shown in Fig. 9) and the methods of manufacture and assembly are the temperature sensor Arrangements (as shown in Figs. 10A to 20N) which will now be described. The kit of FIG. 9 includes conductors 290, connectors 292, a Ml-cable 294, a transitional hub 227, a grommet 223, a mounting connector 218, a collar 220, and a tip cap 214. The assembly of these components, which can form a kit, will be described below.
    As shown in FIG. 11, another example of a method 3100 of assembling or assembling a temperature sensor assembly is illustrated. Method 3100 begins with an Ml cable 294, as shown in FIG. 10A, with a stripped end exposed to expose a first conductor 290 and a second conductor 290, as shown in FIG. 10B. Thus, the method 3100 includes a step 3102 of stripping a first end of a Ml cable 294 to expose first and second conductors 290. The method 3100 also includes a step 3104 of forming a thermocouple connection or other temperature sensor or sensing element at a second end 209 of the mineral insulated cable 294. In Fig. 10C, a collar 220 is secured around an intermediate portion 208 of the probe body (M1 cable 294 in this example). Thus, the method 3100 also includes a step 3106 of attaching the collar 220 around the probe body (Ml cable 294). One end of the probe body may also be closed, as discussed above and exemplified, as a fixed tip cap 214 or disk (as shown in Figure 10D) or by some other means as described above. Thus, the method 3100 may include a step 3108 of enclosing the second end 209 of the probe body. The method 3100 also includes a step 311 or positioning a mounting plug 218 around an outer surface of the probe body (Ml cable 2 94) between the first end 211 of the probe body and the sleeve 220, as shown in FIG. 10D, and a step 3112 of attaching a transitional main piece 227 over the first end 211 of the sensor main body. The conductors 290 may be formed for crimping or fastening, as shown in FIGS. 10E-10F, with the conductors 290 bent so as to be outwardly directed from the longitudinal axis of the Ml cable 2 94.
    The method 3100 further includes a step 3114 of attaching the conductors 290 to the exposed leads 255 of the cables 254. The conductors 290 may be connected directly to the leads 255 of the cables 254 or they may be crimped, welded, soldered or through another mechanical connection or other suitable connection as known to those skilled in the art. This step 3114 may include making one end of each conductor 290 for crimping, and as described above, this may include stripping the end of the conductor 290 to expose a conductive portion such that the conductive portion is in a desired position or shape is bent or formed, and the other preparation of the conductive portion for compression and / or welding, soldering or bonding, as is known in the art. In some embodiments, conductors 290 may be welded, soldered, or otherwise connected to the end of one of the conductors 290. Referring to FIGS. 10G-10H, the conductors 290 are mechanically connected to the connectors 292 by crimping. Referring to Figs. 101-10J, the leads 255 of the cables 254 are also mechanically connected to the connectors 292 by crimping. While in some embodiments the mechanical coupling by crimping may be sufficient, in other embodiments, the crimping connection between the conductor 290, the cable 254, and the connector 292 may also be welded or soldered. With reference to FIGS. 10K-10L, welding material or brazing material of the connector 292 may be attached to a portion 295 or other suitable portion of the surface
    For example, plug connection 292 can still be added. The welding described herein may be any type of welding known or developed in the art or any welding technique known or developed in the art. In these embodiments, the combination of mechanical coupling via connector 2 92 may provide benefits by crimping and welding connector 292 to conductor 290 and / or cable 254.

    Various advantages are provided by one or more embodiments of the temperature sensor assemblies and methods of making these temperature sensor assemblies as generally described in this disclosure. One or more of these embodiments may provide a very compact construction, high vibration resistance, and impact resistance, such that a longer useful life exists. The temperature sensor assemblies described herein may be used in wide temperature ranges including flame temperature and temperatures greater than 900 degrees Celsius. It has been proven that they work well up to temperatures of 1200 degrees Celsius due to the use of the Alloy 600. The design and method of manufacture contemplates the use of a patch cable of either moderate load or up to a particular heavy load, which is the source of many faults and failures in temperature sensor assemblies. Likewise, the assemblies of the present disclosure may be used in a wide variety of temperature sensing applications, including low temperature applications such as coolant, brake fluid, intake air, seawater, and oil temperatures.
    In some embodiments, more than one temperature sensor 12 may be present in the temperature sensor assembly 10, or more than one temperature sensor may be present in a temperature sensor 12 or in a plurality of temperature sensors 12. In these cases, a temperature sensor 12 or multiple temperature sensors 12 or sensors may provide separate temperature signals to the circuit associated with a measured or sensed temperature or a plurality of sensed or sensed temperatures. In such an embodiment, the assembly includes a second set of cables corresponding to a set of second conductors 90 and a second transition element 22 for connecting each of the second conductors 90 to at least one of the cables 26 of the second set of cables. In these cases, the housing 28 has a second input for receiving the second set of cables 26. The circuit receives the second temperature signals and generates a second temperature curve indicative of the temperature around the exterior of the second temperature sensor 12.
    In one embodiment, the temperature sensor 12 is assembled from a mineral insulated cable with conductors, a metal body and insulating material. In other embodiments, the temperature sensor 12 may consist of conductors 90 and the body 16. In some embodiments, a collar 20 is about an outer surface of the probe body 16 around which the attachment engages to secure the temperature probe 12 to the mounting assembly. The sleeve 20 is fixed to the outside of the sensor main body 16 as in welding. The collar 20 may be secured to the exterior of the probe body 16 by any known or future method, such as laser welding, spin welding, electron beam welding, resistance welding, and ultrasonic welding.
    In some embodiments, the transition member 22 has a bushing 23 and a transitional main piece 27. The bushing 23 may have an internal cavity or a plurality of internal cavities 89, each dimensioned to be one end of the one of the conductors 90 and receiving one end 34 of at least one of the at least one cable 26 of the cable set, the transitional main body 27 having a cavity substantially surrounding the grommet 23 and being welded to the probe body 16. Each of the inner cavities 89 of the grommet 23 may also be configured to have a first portion and a second portion coupled and positioned in series with the first portion. The second portion may have a width of the cavity which is larger or smaller than the width of the cavity of the first portion.
    In some embodiments, the conductors 90/290 are directly connected to the cables 26/54/254 by welding or soldering or other known forms of direct connection of conductors 90/290. In other embodiments, an electrical connector 92/292 is used to connect the conductors 90/290 to the cables 26/54/254. An electrical connector 92/292 may e.g. a first end in compression engagement with a conductor 90/290 and / or having a second end in compression engagement with a cable 26/54/254. It can be a crimp compression or similar coupling. In these cases, the electrical connector 92/292 may be positioned in one of the inner cavities 89 of the grommet 23/223, if present. In some embodiments, the compression action may be supplemented by welding or soldering. In these cases, the electrical connector 92/292 is preferably made of a weldable material, such as e.g. an alloy 42, manufactured. In other embodiments, the transition element 22/86/222 may connect the conductors 90/290 to the cables 26/54/2554 by maintaining a mechanical connection between the lead wires 55/255 and the conductors 90/290. In some embodiments, the probe body 16 is formed from a metal tube 94/294. This can help in the manufacturing process and help to reduce costs. In these embodiments, an end 209 of the metal tube 94/294 may be closed around the temperature sensor by crimping, welding, roll forming and / or upsetting an end 209 of the metal tube 94/294. In other embodiments, a tip cap 14/60/214 or washer 93 may be positioned near the end 209 of the metal tube 94/294, including the temperature sensor, and welded, brazed or otherwise bonded to the end 209 of the metal tube 94/294 and to close the end 209 of the metal tube 94/294 and seal it for temperature sensing applications.
    As mentioned above, the probe body 16/80 may be molded, bent, or otherwise arranged for mounting to the desired temperature sensing arrangement. Thus, the probe body 15/80 may be e.g. be formed or bent to have any required angle and, as shown in the examples of some of the figures, an intermediate portion having an angled portion so that the first end of the probe body 80 is approximately 90 degrees from the second End of the sensor body 80 is removed.
    In some embodiments, a cover 58 may be provided that covers the entire cable set 54 or a portion of the cable set 54 from the transition portion 22 or the probe body 16 to the housing entrance 36 to add aesthetic or practical advantage to the temperature sensor arrangement to lend. In some cases, e.g. For example, the temperature sensor assembly 10, 50 may be placed in a high heat environment where it may be desirable for the cover 58 to be a heat shield or diverter. In other embodiments, it may be desirable to protect the lead wires 55 from moving parts or the likelihood that the lead wires 55 will be torn or pulled out in the working environment.
    Each of the temperature sensors 12/52/53/212 may have a cable set with a cable or with multiple cables 26/54/254 and a transition element 22/86/222 with one end of the probe body 16/80/94 / 294 are connected. A feedthrough sleeve 23/88/223 with one channel or multiple channels 89 which can receive one or more conductors 90/290 and one or more of the cables 26/54/254 at least partially provides a transition between the sensor Arrangement and the harness. The grommet 23/88/223 may also be configured to enclose the connection of each cable 26/54/254 with each conductor 90/290.
    In some embodiments, each temperature sensor 12/52/212 may have a sleeve 20/84/220 attached to the outside of the probe body 16/80/94/294 and a connector 18/82/218 that is rotatable is connected to the probe body 16/80/94/294, which is configured for the engagement of the sleeve 20/84/220 and for fixing the temperature sensor 12/52/212 to a first mounting arrangement in the working environment.
    In some embodiments, the leads from the temperature probes 12/52/212 are directly connected to the adapter circuitry 62 so that the assembly is an integrated unit, i. the temperature sensors 12/52/212 are not removable. In these embodiments, the first lead wire is fixedly connected to the circuit and the second lead wire is fixedly connected to the circuit. This fixed connection preferably has a connection mechanism that does not allow for the extraction or removal or otherwise disconnection of the cable 26/54/254 from the adapter circuitry 62 or the adapter circuitry housing 28.
    The adapter circuitry 62 includes a housing 28 that may be assembled from two or more parts, which may be integrated parts, or that may be an integrated or unitary system. In some cases 12/47
