A lighting fixture includes a first housing portion and a second housing portion. The first housing portion includes a base and a wall extending outwardly from substantially the perimeter of the base. A top portion of the wall includes one or more hinges extending outwardly therefrom. The second housing portion includes a front panel and a side panel extending outwardly from substantially the perimeter of the front panel. A top portion of the front panel includes at least one slot. The second housing is coupled to the first housing in an open position when the hinge is inserted into the slot and the front panel is disposed elevationally above the base. The second housing is coupled to the first housing in an operational position when the hinge is inserted into the slot and the front panel covers the base.

An insert including a taper is covered with a molten metal. A metal molded product with the insert joined thereto is generated by semi-cooling the molten metal to a press-fitting temperature which is higher than a recrystallization temperature of the molten metal and lower than a melting point of the molten metal. A fitting hole which is filled with the insert is formed in the metal molded product. The taper is fitted into the fitting hole. An undercut is not formed in front of a tip of the taper. The insert is press-fitted into the fitting hole while pressing and extending the fitting hole with the taper in a thinning direction of the taper at a press-fitting temperature. The metal molded product is further cooled with the press-fitting maintained.

Machine (1) for the assembly of profiles (2) formed of at least a first profile section (3) and a second profile section (4) connected by means of one or several thermally insulating sections (5,6), whereby the machine (1) is provided with press means (58) exerting an adjustable pressure on press tools (48) in a lateral direction (HH′) and towards the profile sections (3,4) to be assembled so as to be able to exert an adjustable force on corresponding walls (18) of grooves (17, 20, 31, 33, 82, 90) of the profile sections (3,4) in order to achieve a plastic deformation thereof.

A motor vehicle drive shaft has a receptacle tube component with a receptacle internal diameter and a push-fit component with a push-fit external diameter. The push-fit external diameter is smaller than or equal to the receptacle internal diameter. The receptacle tube component and the push-fit component can be rotated about a common drive shaft rotational axis and extend along the latter in a longitudinal direction. The receptacle tube component and the push-fit component are connected to one another for the transmission of torque. A connecting component is provided, wherein the connecting component is connected in a torque-conducting manner to the receptacle tube component by way of a receptacle connection. The connecting component is connected to the push-fit component by way of a push-fit connection. At least one of the two connections is configured as a combined frictionally locking and positively locking shaft/hub connection.

Various components of an electronic device housing and methods for their assembly are disclosed. The housing can be formed by assembling and connecting two or more different sections together. The sections of the housing may be coupled together using one or more coupling members. The coupling members may be formed using a two-shot molding process in which the first shot forms a structural portion of the coupling members, and the second shot forms cosmetic portions of the coupling members.

An electronic smoking article, a method of manufacturing an electronic smoking article, and a method of achieving a smoking experience without combusting tobacco are disclosed. The electronic smoking article includes an authenticated first section, which includes an aerosol generation unit having at least one heater; an authenticated second section, which includes a power supply operable to apply voltage to the at least one heater for heating a liquid in at least a portion of the aerosol generation unit to form an aerosol; and a conductive ink circuit embedded within the first and second sections, and wherein the power supply and the aerosol generation unit are electrically connected upon joining the first and second sections, and wherein each of the first and second sections has a portion of the conductive ink circuit.

A rotor comprising a shaft having splines with flanks thereon; a lamination disposed on the shaft and configured to engage at least one flank less than all flanks of all of the splines. A method for making a rotor comprising configuring a lamination with an opening for a shaft having splines thereon, the lamination having a recess that provides a clearance fit over a flank of a spline; press fitting the shaft into the lamination while maintaining clearance over the flank.

High pressure presses, components for high pressure presses and related methods are provided herein. In one embodiment of the invention, a press base may include a piston cavity formed in the press base and a piston cavity sleeve positioned in the piston cavity. The piston cavity sleeve may include a wall having an outer surface and an inner surface opposite the outer surface. The piston cavity sleeve may further include a floor having an upper surface and a lower surface opposite the upper surface. An outer radius may be formed at a juncture of the outer surface of the wall and lower surface of the floor and an inner radius may be formed at a juncture of the inner surface of the wall and upper surface of the floor. The inner radius may exhibit a radius of curvature that is greater than a radius of curvature of the outer radius.
