A protective body has an opening for receiving a hanging clip of a tape measure, knife, or other portable object. The protective body and opening are preferably sized and shaped to receive substantially all of the hanging clip, or at least the region of the clip immediately adjacent to the object, to cover any unsmooth edges of the hanging clip so they do not cut into the wear's belt, pocket, etc.

An electrical connector assembly comprises an electrical USB connector that has a separate lock piece attached to the terminal of the electrical connector. The lock piece has a collar that fits onto the terminal adjacent to the connector body of the electrical connector. The collar has orientation slots that receive tabs of terminal to properly orient the positive lock piece onto the terminal and inner retention shoulders that cooperate with lock fingers of the terminal for locking the positive lock onto the terminal. A flange attached to the collar serves as a finger guard and push surface when the collar is attached to the terminal. The lock piece has lock arms for attaching the collar to a face panel.

A bag for containing a fluid and dispensing the fluid into an article, the article defining a fluid receiving aperture. The bag includes a substantially deformable body, the body defining a cavity for containing the fluid; a substantially rigid dispensing portion, the dispensing portion including an inlet, an outlet and a passageway extending therebetween, the inlet being in fluid communication with the cavity; and a closing portion extending across the dispensing portion for blocking the latter, the closing portion being puncturable by the article to allow the fluid to flow from the cavity to the fluid receiving aperture through the inlet, the passageway and the outlet.

A computer drive securing system comprising a chassis for receiving and supporting a computer drive unit by one or more securing clips. The chassis includes one or more pinholes and one or more clip mounting features. The securing clip includes one or more securing pins and one or more flexible tabs for engaging the pinholes and clip mounting features of the chassis, respectively. The pins project into a screw hole or the like in the computer drive for releasably securing the computer drive to the chassis.

Deformation by camber recovery etc. due to non-uniform residual stress is suppressed, and occurrence of crack and burr is suppressed by improving press forming property of a roof side T-shaped portion, so that a reinforcing member having a predetermined shape accuracy is manufactured easily and inexpensively by pressing. A reinforcing member (12) is constructed by three members, i.e. an upper member (20), a lower member (22) and a central member (24). A tensile strength of the upper member (20) is selected lower than that of the central member (24), and is higher than that of the lower member (22). In comparison to a case where the upper member (20) and the central member (24) are constructed integrally by an ultra-high tensile steel plate, fluctuation of internally generated residual stress is made small. Shape accuracy is thereby improved by the reduced deforming amount due to camber recovery etc., thus press forming being facilitated. Also, a roof side T-shaped portion constructed by the upper member (20) is improved in the drawing property, and the door frame corner portions (30) and (32) are improved in the outer trimming property. Thus, the shape accuracy is improved, and yield and productivity is increased by suppression of crack generation.

In a three-axis magnetic sensor, a plurality of magnetoresistive effect element bars are connected in series by means of bias magnets formed on a flat surface parallel to the flat surface of the substrate to constitute magnetoresistive effect elements. The sensitivity direction of magnetization is a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of each of the magnetoresistive effect element bars. Magnetoresistive effect elements forming X-axis and Y-axis sensors have magnetization directions that are orthogonal to each other. Magnetoresistive effect elements of the Z-axis sensor are formed on a tilted surface substrate in such a way that the magnetization direction is inside the tilted surface. The sensitivity direction of the Z-axis sensor is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the magnetoresistive effect element bar.
