A compact pulley puller includes a hollow cylindrical barrel with a gland at each end, a hub clamp formed on each gland, a rod and a piston. Each hub clamp grips a particular size hub of a pulley to be removed or installed. The rod of the puller extends against the shaft of a pulley to remove the pulley. To install a pulley, the rod is threadedly secured to the shaft of the pulley, and the rod of the puller is retracted.

The template for a router to notch a door latch slot is a jig that is adapted for use in routing slots in door slab such that the door slab can receive a latch. The template for a router to notch a door latch slot is clamped to the door slab such that an aperture formed in the template for a router to notch a door latch slot is positioned over the lock rail of the door slab. The aperture can then be used as a template for the router to create a door latch slot to receive the latch plate of the door lock. The template for a router to notch a door latch slot comprises a U channel, a pressure plate, and a thumbscrew.

The present invention provides an improved release mechanism for clamping tools where problems of thread slipping due to worn out thread can be reduced by the structure of a plunger with a small diameter section and the engagement of the thread shaft is made more secure by the cam action on account of the shape of the plunger. A protrusion extends from a push button on a top portion of the half-threaded nut. Threads are formed on an upper portion of the hole for engaging the threaded shaft. The middle portion of the plunger is made to have a section of small diameter allowing the protrusion to be pushed downward in a normal position and allowing the protrusion to rely on the resilient power of the helical spring to push it upward into the small diameter section.

A hand-held cutting tool to remove a metal fitting ring from the outside surface of plastic tubing. The fitting removal tool comprises a first handle, a second handle, a bridge member, and a cutting blade. The first handle is pivotally connected to a first end of the bridge member by a pivot. The second handle is securely connected to a second end of the bridge member in fixed relation to the bridge member. The bridge member comprises a seat for snugly receiving the outer diameter of the metal fitting ring. The first handle comprises a hand gripping area and a cutting blade positioned between the hand gripping area and the pivot. The cutting blade is configured to make an off center cut in the metal fitting ring such that the underlying plastic tubing is not damaged in the cutting process.

An alignment tool for use in a gas turbine engine according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a clamp portion, a component engagement portion and an arm portion that extends between the clamp portion and the component engagement portion. The clamp portion establishes a fixed datum surface for positioning a component within the gas turbine engine.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus for a quick-release adapter between two tripod/bipod/monopod interfaces, wherein a clamping side of the adapter is configured to clamp onto two different types of interfaces or rails such as Arca and Picatinny/Weaver/NATO.

A portable vice affixed to a work bench comprising a pair of independently positioned jaws for clamping a horseshoe. A hand-operated lever simultaneously controls the interjaw distance of a pair of independent jaws gripping two differently contoured horseshoe surfaces. Two parallel stanchions are disposed symmetrically of each independent jaw pair, with each jaw pair comprising a movable jaw situated above a stationary jaw. A slidable carriage encloses a spring for each independent jaw pair and is retained laterally between the pair of parallel stanchions and vertically between a top spring retaining plate and a bottom carriage plate.

A bar clamp has a slide bar supporting a movable jaw assembly. The slide bar is supported in a fixed jaw assembly. The fixed jaw assembly includes a drive mechanism for moving the slide bar relative to the fixed jaw assembly. Mechanisms for expanding the capacity of the bar clamp including the use of straps and two slide bars. Specialized jaws are provided where the jaws may be removable from the jaw assemblies. Additional clamping jaws are provided in addition to the movable and fixed jaw assemblies for varying the clamping force applied to a workpiece.
