Disassemblable planter box
An assemblable and disassemblable planter box for propagation, growing, transporting, and planting. The planter box has two sides and a bottom saucer. The sides are attached by engaging assembly a tongue along one edge with a groove formed by side by side lips along a corresponding edge, and inserting locks through the tongue and lips. The bottom saucer attaches the assembled sides to complete the planter box. The bottom saucer may be attached to the sides by bottom saucer locks inserted through bottom saucer slots and into side bottoms. Slots near side tops may receive horizontal planks and diagonal rods reaching up from corner tops help stabilize trees in the planter box. The bottom saucer may includes fork lift passages to facilitate movement of large planter boxes. The sides and bottom saucer may be made from High Density PolyEthylene (HDPE) or from PolyPropylene (PP), both recyclable materials.
DISPLAY STAND CONNECTOR
A display stand connector can include a first part including a body member for attachment to a first part of a display stand and a protuberance extending from at least one surface of the body member. A second part of the display stand connector can include a base for attachment to a second part of the display stand, the base including a slot. The body member of the first part is locatable within the slot so as to connect the first and second parts of the display stand. The display stand connector is made from a pulp material.
NOZZLES AND SYSTEMS FOR ADHESIVELY ATTACHING A FIRST PART TO A SECOND PART
A nozzle for dispensing adhesive between a first part and a second part comprises a nozzle body. The nozzle body comprises a first-part engagement surface. The nozzle body also comprises a second-part engagement surface, contiguous with the first-part engagement surface and defining an engagement-surface angle, greater than 0° and less than 180°, with a virtual plane, coincident with the first-part engagement surface. The nozzle body further comprises a nozzle-body outlet port, formed in the second-part engagement surface. The nozzle body additionally comprises a nozzle-body inlet port, formed in the first-part engagement surface. The nozzle also comprises a separator plate, coupled with and extending from the nozzle body.
ASSEMBLY HAVING TWO ELEMENTS ASSEMBLED BY A GLUE JOINT PROVIDED WITH BLOCKED TUNNELS, VEHICLE COMPRISING SUCH AN ASSEMBLY AND METHODS FOR SECURING AND DETACHING SUCH AN ASSEMBLY
An assembly provided with a panel glued by a glue joint to a support, the assembly facilitating the detachment of the panel from the support, the glue joint being interposed between an internal environment and an external environment. The assembly comprises at least one tunnel, each tunnel passing all the way through the glue joint along a transverse axis and connecting the internal environment and the external environment, each tunnel being reversibly blocked by a stopper.
Safety switch feature for an electronic device
An electrical mating interface includes one or more electrical connectors that electrically couple the mounting device to a corresponding set of electrical connectors of an electronic device. The electrical mating interface further includes a front façade comprising a plunger coupled to a safety switch. The safety switch is disposed between the one or more electrical connectors and main wiring of a dwelling. When the plunger depresses upon coupling of the electronic device to the electrical mating interface, the safety switch closes and electrically couples the main wiring of the dwelling to the electronic device.
T-BAYONET JOINT
A flange connector assembly for connecting trim pieces of a vehicle. A first male portion having an end portion connected to a first trim part and a second female portion connected to a trim part end to be attached to the first trim part. The first male portion has a connection portion with a T-shaped cross section and the second portion has a second connecting portion with a T-shaped cavity. The first male connecting portion and the second female connecting portion fit to precisely engage each other and retain the trim portion to be attached. The protruding T-shaped portion includes raised tuning flanges and is capable of adjusting up/down, inboard/outboard or twist fine tuning for providing alignment adjustment to the trim pieces via adjustment of the flange heights in the mold and providing new precisely adjusted T-flanges for providing a tuned butt connection of a trim strip for instance.
SET OF PANELS WITH A MECHANICAL LOCKING DEVICE
A set of panels including a first panel with a first main plane and a second panel with a second main plane with a second main surface. The first and second main planes are essentially perpendicular in a locked position. The first and the second panel include a locking device for locking a first edge of the first panel to a second edge of the second panel. The locking device includes an edge groove wherein the edge groove includes a tongue, which is configured to cooperate with a tongue groove of the first panel, in a locked position, for locking the first and the second edges in a first direction which is perpendicular to the first main plane. A first groove surface of the edge groove cooperate with second main surface to lock the first and second panel in a second direction which is perpendicular to the second main plane.
Metal space frame radome
A radome with constructed panels that are mechanically fastened to each other to form a truncated faceted spherical structure. Each panel is constructed of a metal frame and a membrane attached to the frame. The mechanically fastened frame beams panel-to-panel contact spaces are sealed to prevent water ingress.
CLAMP ASSEMBLY USING PINS
A versatile clamp assembly that may be used for securing a device generally to an edge of a structure such as a raised portion of a standing seam of a metal roof. The assembly comprises a mounting body with an open loop having a slot for receiving the raised portion formed by the mounting body attaching the clamp assembly thereto. The assembly is configured with one or more pins that may be configured to be received in one or more push-pin openings formed in the mounting body, whereby the push-pin openings extend from a fastener base portion to a second arm portion. The assembly includes a fastener adapted to be received in a fastener opening formed adjacent the push-pin openings. The fastener is configured to secure and hold the clamp assembly to the standing seam by forcing the pins against the raised portion of the surface disposed in the slot.
Connectable Box Carcass Framework Members
A pair of connectable box carcass framework members for the fabrication of non-panel constructed furniture carcasses. They simplify the construction of a furniture carcass with a minimal of tools and skill required to produce a dimensionally square, precisely sized, box that accepts an abundance of aesthetic and functional options. They are based on a pair of mechanical fastener connectable vertical and horizontal members that have connectable zipper channels, linear rabbets for the retention of side panels, screw busses, and open channels with series of spaced orifices therein for the passage of mechanical connectors.
