A bedside holster assembly is configured with a backing having a flap portion and hanging portion. The flap portion is positionable under a mattress of a bed, and the hanging portion is adaptable to hanging downwardly along the side of the bed. A holster is secured to the hanging portion of the backing, the holster being adaptable to holding a handgun.

Methods involving adding a removable fixating material to a partially manufactured workpiece to stabilize a plurality of partially formed objects therein for subsequent manufacturing. In one example, a workpiece of interconnected structures is manufactured comprising precursors to the discrete objects as a function of a workpiece computer model. Manufacturing the workpiece further includes forming valleys between adjacent partially formed objects so that interconnecting portions remain to interconnect the partially formed objects. Further, the methods include removing the interconnecting portions so as to liberate the plurality of objects from one another. In some embodiments, a temporary frame is formed from the workpiece along with the plurality of objects during manufacturing.

A mount system and method of manufacture for e.g. a machine vision camera is disclosed. The mount system comprises a rectangular base, a lower clamp disc, an upper clamp disc, a tilting plate, an expansion clamp, and an O-ring. The expansion clamp comprises a tapered head screw and an expandable mandrel, both typically made of stainless steel. The mount system facilitates improved machine vision by enabling effective mounting of machine vision cameras in smaller spaces and/or spaces requiring unusual angles and intricate positioning. The mount system is also advantageous in inhospitable environments having harsh environmental factors. The mount system is also easier for machine vision personnel to learn and understand.

Provided are a method of for machining the outer circumference of a metal end cross-section, the method being capable of easily forming at least any of a deep groove, a deep recess, and a flange which are smooth and uniform in the longitudinal direction of a metal rod or metal pipe in the periphery of the cross-section of any of the end part of the metal rod or metal pipe, the drawn end part of the metal rod or metal pipe, and the hub hole forming part of the metal pipe; and a method for joining a metal component obtained by the machining method with another member. The machining method of the present invention is characterized in that: splitting is advanced by successively repeating press forming operation multiple times by using a slitting punch, in which a tip part has a sharp cutting edge, and the cutting edge is formed so as to have a shape equal to or partly equal to the outer shape of the cross section of a metal end part and so as to have a diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the cross section of the splitting object; and in order to control the depth of metal cracking cleft created with each press forming operation, a pressing die for pinching the outside of a metal rod or at least a pressing die of one side of pressing dies for pinching the inside and the outside of a metal pipe is disposed while its position is moved according to the distance of a split portion.

An assembling device includes a holding member and a processing device. The holding member is configured to hold a first assembly component and a second assembly component. The processing device is configured to process a first excess thickness portion and a second excess thickness portion. The first excess thickness portion is provided at the first assembly component and is configured to adjust a gap between the first assembly component and the second assembly component. The second excess thickness portion is provided at the second assembly component and is configured to adjust the gap.

A rigid coupler for use in electrically isolating an electrically conductive fluid conveyance system is described. The rigid coupler includes a nonconductive liner having a first end configured to couple to a first adjoining section of the fluid conveyance system, and a second end, opposite said first end, configured to couple to a second adjoining section of the fluid conveyance system. A reinforcing structure circumscribes the nonconductive liner and is coupled to a portion of the nonconductive liner extending between the first and second ends of the nonconductive liner. The reinforcing structure includes a multi-axial braided fiber material impregnated with a matrix material. A fiber overwrap is hoop wound about at a least a portion of the reinforcing structure between the first and second ends of the nonconductive liner.
