A retainer nut assembly for a fluid end of a pump system includes a fastener with a generally cylindrical configuration, first and second ends, external threads configured to engage corresponding threads of a fluid end block, and a cavity formed at the first end. A suction cap is configured to sealingly fit to the fluid end block. A load piston is movably disposed in the cavity adjacent the suction cap. A bore is formed through the fastener in communication with the cavity and provided with hydraulic fluid. A pressure piston is movably disposed in the bore. A threaded passageway is formed through the fastener in communication with the bore and open to the second end. A locking bolt is disposed in the threaded passageway and, when inserted into the threaded passageway, contacts the pressure piston and generates fluid pressure on the load piston.

A pneumatic telescopic column assembly for supporting and moving military equipment, communication equipment, lighting equipment and/or surveillance equipment is provided. The pneumatic telescopic column assembly extends along an axis and has a plurality of tube groups telescopically configurable between a compact configuration and an extended configuration. The plurality of tube groups has a base tube group, an intermediate tube group and a head tube group. The base tube group has a base tube element and a base locking ring that has at least one horizontal latch, at least one actuator and at least one vertical latch. The intermediate tube group has an intermediate tubular element and an intermediate locking ring that has at least one horizontal intermediate latch. The tubular head group has a tubular head element.

A piston lock system having first and second cylinders, first and second pistons telescopically connected to the cylinders, and first and second piston locks. The piston locks are movable in a transverse direction within a planar region between the cylinders, between unlocked positions in which the piston locks are not located between the free ends of the cylinders and the free ends of the piston, and locked positions in which the piston locks are located between the free cylinder ends and the free piston ends. A control link is operatively connected to the piston locks, and configured to simultaneously move the piston locks between the locked and unlocked positions.

A piston lock system comprising: a cylinder, a rod receiver fixed to the cylinder, a piston slidably mounted to the cylinder, and a rod fixed to a free end of the piston and extending parallel to the piston to be located within the rod receiver. The piston and rod are movable relative to the cylinder and rod receiver between a retracted position and an extended position. A lock pin is mounted to the rod receiver and movable between a unlocked position in which the lock pin does not intersect a path of the rod, and a locked position in which the lock pin intersects the path of the rod and prevents the rod and piston from moving to the retracted position. Lock pins of multiple actuators can be connected to operate in unison.

A valve for pressurized fluid having a body housing a fluid circuit having an upstream end configured to be placed in communication with a reserve of pressurized fluid and a downstream end configured to be placed in communication with a user of fluid, the circuit having a collection of valve shutter(s) having at least one shutoff valve shutter allowing the circuit to be closed or opened, the valve having a member for manually controlling the collection of valve shutter(s), the control member being mounted to allow the body to move between a rest position in which the collection of valve shutter(s) is in a position in which the circuit is closed and an active position in which the control member actuates the collection of valve shutter(s) into a position in which the circuit is open with a first bore section

A fluid actuator includes housing defining a cylinder bore and first and second fluid passages. A circumferential detent groove extends into the housing from the cylinder bore. The cylinder bore receives a piston having a top face and a skirt in sliding engagement. A circumferential detent ring groove extends radially inwardly into the skirt. The detent ring groove has a first portion of a first depth and a second portion of a second, greater depth. An o-ring is at least partially received in the second portion. A wear ring is at least partially received in the first portion and overlies the o-ring. The o-ring biases the wear ring outwardly of the detent ring so that the wear ring may be selectively engaged with the detent groove.

The present invention relates to a locking mechanism or tool adapted for connection to a remotely operated vehicle and adapted for at least one of the group consisting of connection and disconnection of two plates. The present invention also concerns a system adapted for at least one of the group consisting of connection and disconnection of two plates, where the system comprises said locking mechanism or tool.
