A holding element for a device for supporting and/or guiding a machine tool or a workpiece, wherein the device includes a contact body having a contact surface for contact on a work surface of a workpiece or a wall. It is provided that the holding element includes an adhesive means for adhesion to the work surface and a fastening means for a releasable hold on the contact body, wherein the fastening means includes at least one formfitting contour for formfitting hold on a holding element receptacle of the contact body.

A tool stand includes a table having a tool support surface and a plurality of legs movable relative to the table to define a first configuration and a second configuration of the tool stand. The plurality of legs includes a first leg and a second leg, each pivotable about a first axis, and the plurality of legs further includes a third leg and a fourth leg, each pivotable about a second axis parallel to the first axis. The tool stand further includes a base frame coupled to the third and fourth legs, and a latch mechanism including a latch element movable between a latched position and an unlatched position. The latch mechanism is configured to inhibit movement of each of the legs relative to the table when the latch element is in the latched position and the tool stand is in the first configuration.

A wind turbine blade apparatus comprising a root device including: a base having an upper surface with a radius of curvature and configured to receive a root portion of a blade, with housings disposed on lateral sides of the base. The housings including a groove configured to receive a bearing and a shaft extending at least partially through the base and housing. A tip device is also provided which includes a base, a rotatable support frame having: a first support configured to receive a pressure side of a wind turbine blade, a second support configured to receive a suction side of a wind turbine blade, and an opening, the opening configured to receive a portion of a wind turbine blade.

A torque transfer device is provided to transfer torque from a torque tool to a torque limiter device, the torque transfer device comprising a torque limiter connection member adapted for connection to the torque limiter device; a first joint; a second joint; and a tool connection member adapted for connection to the torque tool, wherein the first joint and the second joint are configured to lock responsive to activation of the torque tool to transfer a reaction torque generated by the torque tool to the torque limiter device, and wherein the first joint and the second joint are configured to unlock responsive to deactivation of the torque tool to enable rotation between the torque tool and the torque limiter device along a first axis and a second axis different from the first axis.

The assembly stand comprises two parallel posts (1), a horizontal girder (6) which connects the tops of the posts and is vertically movable, and a suspension frame (17) which can be displaced along the movable girder in a lateral direction and is further suitable for turning the engine (M) mounted thereon about the main axes. A lifting block (10) is provided with a lifted load sensor to record the total weight of the engine (M). The device advantageously comprises a trajectory calculating control system integrating the structural deformations caused by the lifted weight, in order to correct the docking trajectories of the modules and ensure their utmost precision.

A drill holder includes a base, an elongate support member extending substantially perpendicularly from the base, and an arm mounted to the support member. The arm extends substantially perpendicularly from the support member and is free to slide along at least a portion of the support member. The arm includes holding means for holding a drill and a weight.

A drilling system configured to install a tap assembly into a ship skin is disclosed. The drilling system comprises a remotely-operated underwater vehicle and a drilling assembly configured to be operated by the remotely-operated underwater vehicle. The drilling assembly comprises a frame comprising an attachment element configured to hold the drilling assembly to a surface of the ship skin. The drilling assembly further comprises a drill actuation system comprising a linear actuator attached to the frame and a rotary actuator, wherein an actuation of the linear actuator is configured to move the rotary actuator relative to the frame to install the tap assembly into the ship skin by driving the tap assembly with the rotary actuator and the linear actuator.

A pipe fitting stand for supporting a pipe during a work operation includes a table, and a plurality of legs coupled to the table and movable between a deployed position and a stowed position. The pipe fitting stand additionally includes a vise coupled to the table for supporting a first portion of the pipe, and a support positioned on a side of the table opposite the vise upon which a second portion of the pipe is supported. The support is adjustable relative to the table, thereby adjusting the orientation of the pipe relative to the table.

A mobile project center system is presented that includes a center track having a pair of center supports and a pair of legs connected to the center support. A pair of benchtops are connected to the center track and move between an extended position and a retracted position. A pair of braces connect to each benchtop and provide support between the benchtop and the legs. These braces are locked and unlocked using a brace lock controlled by a brace control positioned just below the benchtops. A shelf extends between the opposing pairs of legs that transitions from a folded position and an extended position. The benchtop includes a plurality of openings in a grid pattern that facilitate attachment of various devices such as a joinery block. The system is used to perform a number of operations and converts between a plurality of configurations.
