US patent 3621157, filed in 1970 by Pierre Schwab, [1] is the earliest known DIP switch patent, which discloses a rotary style DIP switch. US patent 4012608, filed in 1975 by Joseph Lockard, [ 2 ] is a DIP switch with sliding levers, the modern DIP switch.
Telephone with letters on its rotary dial (1950s, UK) The layout of the digit keys is different from that commonly appearing on calculators and numeric keypads.This layout was chosen after extensive human factors testing at Bell Labs.
In 1937 W.B. Schulte, [2] McGall's employer, started the company MICRO SWITCH. The company and the Micro Switch trademark have been owned by Honeywell Sensing and Control since 1950. [3] The name has become a generic trademark for any snap-action switch. Companies other than Honeywell now manufacture miniature snap-action switches.

A pick chart allows visual comparison of action items relative to their impact to the problem being addressed vs. the ease/cost of implementation. In VERY rudimentary terms, PICK charts are a Return On Investment (ROI) method. When faced with multiple improvement ideas a PICK chart may be used to determine the most useful.
The Feynman diagrams are much easier to keep track of than "old-fashioned" terms, because the old-fashioned way treats the particle and antiparticle contributions as separate. Each Feynman diagram is the sum of exponentially many old-fashioned terms, because each internal line can separately represent either a particle or an antiparticle.
Tension band wiring is a technique in which the bone fragments are transfixed by K-wires which are then also used as an anchor for a loop of flexible wire. As the loop is tightened the bone fragments are compressed together. Fractures of the kneecap and the olecranon process of the elbow are commonly treated by this method.
A ternary flammability diagram, showing which mixtures of methane, oxygen gas, and inert nitrogen gas will burn. A ternary plot, ternary graph, triangle plot, simplex plot, or Gibbs triangle is a barycentric plot on three variables which sum to a constant. [1]
