A compressor includes a shell, a first scroll member, a second scroll member and a sealing assembly. The shell defines a first pressure region and a second pressure region. The first scroll member is disposed within the shell and includes a first end plate and a first scroll wrap. The second scroll member includes a second end plate and a second scroll wrap. The second scroll wrap meshingly engages the first scroll wrap to define a compression chamber therebetween. The seal assembly fluidly separates the first and second pressure regions from each other. The seal assembly includes a first plate, a second plate, a first sealing member and a second sealing member. The first sealing member is sealingly engaged with the first plate and the second plate. The second sealing member is sealingly engaged with the first sealing member and the first plate.

A precision shaving razor with low cost assembly. A bridge is unitarily molded having a leading platform, a handle attachment mechanism and first and a second cross member each molded to extend substantially perpendicularly to the leading platform. A plurality of base members is each unitarily molded to have a first peg and a second peg for attachment to the cross pieces. A plurality of blade covers each unitarily molded. A razor blade is sandwiched between each blade cover-base pair. In some instances, the blade covers are molded to have hard stops to facilitate precise blade position. In some cases, the bases define angular wash through channels and blade guards spaced to facilitate wash through. In some cases, the skin contacting surfaces of the razor are textured during molding to have a glide improving texture.

A system for fabrication of a wind turbine blade including a laser projection which identifies the dimensions for a plurality of layup segments; determines the sequence of layup segments within first and second sections of the mold, wherein the sequence of layup segments within the second section of the mold are synchronized with the layup segments within a first section of the mold. The system also includes a projection device visually depicting the boundaries of a plurality of layup segments onto the mold. This system automates fabrication of composite structures by setting a pace for each task and ensuring operators complete each task within the allotted period. The projection system and layup delivery mechanism can advance with respect the mold to ensure the pace is maintained and an overall product cycle time is adhered to.

A flow path device includes a first portion, and a second portion. The first portion includes a resin first body and a first reinforcement. In the first body, a first connector connects a first outer portion and a first joint having a groove pattern defining a first flow path.

The first reinforcement is between and bonded to the first outer portion and the first joint, and includes first protrusions protruding from the first body and including two specific-shaped portions. The second portion includes a resin second body and a second reinforcement. In the second body, a second connector connects a second outer portion and a second joint, and through-holes connect to the first flow path. The second reinforcement is between and bonded to the second outer portion and the second joint, and includes second protrusions protruding from the second body and including two specific-shaped portions.

A protective covering can protect a surface of a composite article from lightning strikes, wherein the surface includes at least one grounding connection. The covering includes a conductive sheet formed from electrically conductive material configured to be affixed to the composite article over a portion of the surface adjacent the grounding connection; and a perforated overlaminate sheet comprising a dielectric material configured to be affixed to the composite article over the conductive sheet. The perforated overlaminate sheet distributes electrical current of the lighting strikes over an area of the protective covering.

A forming module for forming a composite laminate part over a tool is provided. The forming module comprises a base, a ply carrier control assembly adapted for controlling the position of a flexible ply carrier on which composite resin plies are mounted, and a head section mounted on the base and adapted for automatically forming the composite resin plies from the ply carrier onto the tool.

A method of forming a nipple for a baby bottle, comprises: forming a lower conical wall section; forming a higher conical wall section molded above the lower conical wall section; preventing deformation of the higher conical wall section; and cutting an opening through the higher conical wall section into an interior section of the nipple.

A drawstring clasp having an enclosed locking mechanism and dual actuating mechanisms disposed on opposing sides of the drawstring clasp. A housing of the drawstring clasp and actuating button disposed on opposing sides of the housing can be configured to depict an ornamental feature. The ornamental feature can be the head of an animal, a baseball, a heart, or other ornamental feature.
