A method of assembling an end effector for a surgical instrument includes: assembling first and second jaw members within a clevis disposed at a distal end of an outer drive shaft of a surgical instrument; inserting an end of a pivot pin including a stop on the opposite end thereof through a hole defined in a first outer wall of the clevis, through pivot bores defined within the first and second jaw members, and through a hole defined in a second outer wall of the clevis to expose a portion of the end of the pivot pin relative to the clevis; and melting the exposed portion of the end of the pivot pin to form a second stop and secure the first and second jaw members within the clevis.

A bolt includes a main-bolt head, a threaded shaft, and a deformable-bolt head component. The main-bolt head has a recess. The threaded shaft extends from the main-bolt head. The threaded shaft has an external thread wrapped therearound. The deformable-bolt head component has an outer flange and an interior threaded bore. The outer flange of the deformable-bolt head component is coupled to the main-bolt head such that a relief space is formed between the deformable-bolt head component and the recess.

The present invention discloses a manufacturing method of an unequal-torque coil spring and a manufacturing machine thereof for a curtain spring motor, providing a feedback torque that corresponds to an actual requirement from different stages in a curtain-folding working process, so that when the curtain is folded back, the torque can be used to stabilize the speed of folding back the curtain, and the lower beam of the curtain can be fixed at any heights as the curtain is lowered.

A leaf spring device includes a main leaf made of a steel plate including an elastic section configured to generate elastic force when bent; and an eye section formed in an end portion of the elastic section, the elastic section and the eye section being tempered. There is also provided a method for manufacturing the leaf spring device. The eye section is formed by rolling the end of the elastic section into a circular form. The eye section is tempered at a higher temperature than the elastic section.

A machine can form a work piece into a bowl subcomponent of a steel pan musical instrument. The machine includes a pressure lid and a die mold. The die mold may be formed of non-metal layers stacked between metal layers. In example operation, a blank or work piece is inserted between the lid and die mold. The lid is pressed down (e.g., by a hydraulic ram), forcing a portion of the blank into a face groove of the die mold for sealing. Pressurized water or other fluid introduced between the lid and the blank exerts pressure on the sealed portion of the blank and stretches the blank to conform to a bowl shape of the die mold. Note regions can be introduced by this machine-performed shaping and/or by subsequent manual operations to further prepare the work piece for incorporation into a steel pan musical instrument.

An embossing die includes a recess into which a component can be introduced for embossing and an embossing bead protruding into the recess and contacting the component. The recess has a side wall that extends at least partially conically or concavely in an embossing direction.

A brushless motor comprising: a rotor; a stator core disposed at a radial direction outside of the rotor, and a stator case. The stator core includes an outer ring shaped section, teeth sections projecting out from the outer ring shaped section toward a radial direction inside, and an inner ring shaped section extending from end portions of the teeth sections. Protruding portions are formed at the outer ring shaped section so as to project toward a radial direction outside and so as to be disposed at even intervals around a circumferential direction of the outer ring shaped section. The stator case is integrated together with the stator core by a plurality of plastic deformation portions formed at an outer peripheral portion of the stator case at locations facing towards the protruding portions, and the plastic deformation portions are disposed at even intervals along a circumferential direction of the stator case.
