Coupling System
A coupling system (10) for coupling together elongate members (6) is described. The coupling system (10) comprises a mounting member (1) having a mounting surface (8). A first locating member (2) is mounted on the mounting member (1) and a second locating member (2) is adapted to be mounted on the mounting member (1), in use. A number of support members (3) are provided and each support member (3) comprises two locating member engagement formations (31, 32), a mounting member engagement surface (27) and a first elongate member support formation (28). The engagement surface (27) of a support member (3) is adapted to be engaged with the mounting surface (8) of the mounting member (1) and one locating member engagement formation (31, 32) is adapted to be engaged with each locating member (2) to mount the support member (3) on the mounting member (1).
CLAMP FOR CONNECTING LEDGER TO SHORING POST
The disclosure is directed to a clamp for connecting a ledger to a shoring post. The clamp includes a base member, a ledger-connecting member, and a first jaw, which are fixed connected to each other. The clamp includes a rotatable member inserted into the base member, which is rotatable and slidable in the base member along a longitudinal axis. A portion of the rotatable member is accessible via the slot of the base member. The clamp includes a second jaw fixedly connected to the rotatable member. The clamp further includes a wedge, and when the wedge is inserted into the slot of the base member to engage the rotatable member in a lock position, the first and second jaws are locked to capture two sides of a shoring post.
Diagonal reinforcement for support structures for floor formwork and method for mounting same
Diagonal reinforcement for floor formwork support structures, the support structure comprising height-adjustable props on which diagonal reinforcements are mounted, wherein each of the diagonal reinforcements comprises a projecting pivot close to the upper end thereof, or on the upper end itself, the free end of which pivot is deformed towards one side and can fit progressively into one of the holes in the prop on which the pivot is mounted by means of rotation, it being possible to detach the reinforcement simply by reproducing the insertion movement in reverse.

Lockable scaffold toeboard system
A scaffold toeboard system for locking a toeboard between two vertical scaffold members where each vertical scaffold member includes a tubular member having a diameter and an outer shape. The toeboard system includes a toeboard having an elongated member with a fixed terminating end and an adjustable terminating end. The toeboard further includes a front portion, a top portion, a bottom portion and a rear portion. The toeboard system further includes a locking mechanism slidably mounted to the adjustable terminating end, where the locking mechanism includes a lock member body with a front sidewall two fingers positioned on said locking mechanism and extending outwardly from the front sidewall of the locking member. The two fingers separated by a horizontal distance of about the diameter of a scaffold vertical member. The locking mechanism further includes a lock, where the lock is actuatable to fix the position of the lock member body with respect to the toeboard in a deployed position. The fixed terminating end is shaped to engage a scaffold vertical member.

CONNECTOR
A connector for interlocking components of scaffolding or other supporting structures for building forms. The connector includes a body having an internal chamber bounded laterally by planar first and second surfaces. A lever is seated in the chamber laterally intermediate and in close fit with the planar first and second surfaces for inhibiting lateral movement of the lever. The lever is movable between a lock position and a release position. A spring is seated in the chamber laterally intermediate and in close fit with the planar first and second surfaces for inhibiting lateral movement of the spring, the spring for biasing the lever into the lock position.
Management of power to internal subsystems within a system on chip
An electronic device comprising a system on chip and an external module. The system on chip includes a plurality of internal subsystems and a power management system including a plurality of internal voltage regulators which supply power to the plurality of internal subsystems. Each of the internal voltage regulators has an associated current limiter. The external module includes at least one external voltage regulator which can provide power to at least one of the internal subsystems. The power management system during a start-up phase enables the internal voltage regulators and the current limiters and in a subsequent phase determines an externally powered set of the internal subsystems, disables the corresponding internal voltage regulators, and disables the current limiters associated with the internal subsystems not externally powered.
Post connection adapter
A post connection adapter for detachably fastening a scaffolding post to a support includes a fastening body having first and second fastening-body fasteners in first and second fastening-body fastening positions, respectively, and detachably fastenable to the support selectively by the first or second fastener. The first and second positions have a fastening position distance between each other of 72 mm. The post connection adapter includes a post connection body extending toward the post connection body axis and fastened to the fastening body. An imaginary center plane containing an imaginary center point between the first and second positions is offset by 20 mm perpendicular to the center plane and to the post connection body axis, with respect to a post connection body axis plane extending parallel to the center plane and containing the post connection body axis. A device has two identical post connection adapters detachably fastened to a support.
Modular scaffolding horizontal end connector
An end connector for a horizontal scaffold member includes two sidewalls that are substantially parallel joined to a pipe. Each side wall has two spaced apart engagement section. The sidewalls extend into the interior of the pipe and remain substantially parallel in the interior of the pipe. A movable latch is positioned between the two sidewalls.
