A clamp includes a first clamp body portion arranged for removable coupling about a generally cylindrical support structure to a second clamp body portion. The first clamp body portion includes a first clamp structure containing a first generally semi-spherical floating bushing, the first generally semi-spherical floating bushing coupled to the first clamp structure. The second clamp body portion includes a second clamp structure containing a second generally semi-spherical floating bushing, the second generally semi-spherical floating bushing coupled to the second clamp structure.

An apparatus for compacting yard waste is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a shaft and a base adapted to crush yard waste. The apparatus is assembled by releasable coupling of the shaft and the base.

A quick connector assembly for connecting a toilet waste pipe to a drain pipe including a toilet carrier base. A collet has resilient radially inward fingers and a lock body secures the collet in place. The lock body has guide tracks with locked portions that define a locked position and unlocked portions that define an unlocked position. A lock nut includes interior protrusions coupled in the guide tracks for movement between the locked and unlocked positions. A guide is slidingly mounted between the lock nut and lock body. In the unlocked position, the lock nut forces the guide into the collet so that the radially inward fingers are splayed to allow removal of a toilet waste pipe for adjustment. In the locked position, the guide is not forced into the collet so that the radially inward fingers prevent removal of the toilet waste pipe for fast and easy assembly.

A motor drive device capable of attaching a fan unit to a mounting member more easily. The motor drive device includes the mounting member formed with a mounting hole, the fan unit including a lid positioned facing the mounting member to cover the mounting hole and being fixed to the mounting member, and a restricting member movably attached to the lid, the restricting member being movable between a restriction position for engaging with the mounting member and a non-restriction position for releasing from the mounting member.

An attachment is configured to connect a first connecting plate of a vehicle component to a second connecting plate of a vehicle body. The attachment includes a body, first, second and third flanges, and a press-fit insert. The attachment is of an elastically deformable material and is configured to be inserted into first and second through holes of the first and second connecting plates. The flanges engage the connecting plates when the attachment is inserted into the through holes. The body includes a hole extending longitudinally within the body to accommodate the press-fit insert. The press-fit insert has a diameter greater than the diameter of the hole to form a snug connection between the press-fit insert and the hole. The insertion of the press-fit insert into the hole elastically deforms the attachment to urge the body radially against the connecting plates to provide a robust connection between the connecting plates.

A socket holder is provided, including: a seat, a sleeving member and a locking mechanism. The sleeving member includes a neck portion which is configured to be assembled with a socket. The sleeving member is movably assembled with the seat. The locking mechanism includes at least one first locking portion, at least one second locking portion which is releasably engagable with the at least one first locking portion, and an operational portion which is movable together with the at least one first locking portion. One of the at least one first locking portion and the at least one second locking portion is disposed on the seat and the other is disposed on the sleeving member. The operational portion includes an operational member which is located out of the neck portion and operable from outside of the socket holder.

The present disclosure relates to an axle retainer and associated conveyor system. An example axle retainer is defined by a housing that includes a first surface configured to be secured to an inner-sidewall of a conveyor frame and a second surface opposite the first surface. The second surface defines two or more apertures configured to mount a conveyor roller axle therein. Each aperture includes a snap-fit bracket defining two arms each with a corresponding protrusion. The two arms of the snap-fit bracket are configured to expand from a first position to a second position within the aperture to receive a conveyor roller axle and rebut from the second position to the first position such that the pair of corresponding protrusions defined by the two arms of the snap-fit bracket retain the conveyor roller axle in the aperture.

There is provided a method for non-penetration joining of members. The method includes: keeping a joining member having a protruding part by a receiving mold so that the protruding part is exposed; placing a joined member over the joining member so that the protruding part of the joining member is positioned in a blind hole of the joined member, and compressing the joined member against the receiving mold to plastically deform the joined member and the joining member at the same time and to wrap excess thickness of the joined member around an undercut part while forming the undercut part on the joining member, thereby non-detachably joining both the members.

A quick disconnect mount includes a mounting stud securable to a structure, and a connector securable on the mounting stud. The mounting stud includes at least one circumferential ridge and at least one circumferential trough, and the connector includes a central channel sized to fit over the mounting stud and a locking bar engageable with the circumferential trough.

A connector terminal for a sun visor includes a body portion accommodated in a housing fixed to one side of an attachment member of a bracket, the bracket configured to be attached to the attachment member, a mating connection portion provided on one end of the body portion and connected to a mating terminal arranged on one side of the attachment member, an arm connection portion provided on the other end of the body portion and connected to an end of an arm portion rotatably supporting a sun visor body arranged on the other side of the attachment member, the end being inserted into the bracket, and a fixed portion provided between the mating connection portion and the arm connection portion of the body portion and fixed to the housing.
