NON-SLIP REINFORCING BAR COUPLER
Disclosed herein is a non-slip reinforcing bar coupler including: a body which has a body part of a pipe shape, a protrusion part formed in the middle of the body part, a pair of first screw threads formed on the outer surface of the body part and at both sides of the protrusion part, a pair of insertion holes formed at both sides of the body part, and a stopper formed in the middle of the inside of the body part; and a cap which has a cap insertion hole formed at one side, a cap body formed on the inner surface of the other side and having a second screw thread screw-coupled with the first screw thread, and a second inner sloping side formed on the inner surface of the cap insertion hole.
Washer appliance having removable agitator post with radial locking features
A washing appliance with an agitator post configured for removable positioning in a receptacle. A shaft may be supported by the agitator post, the shaft rotatable relative to the agitator post. A plurality of movable tabs may be positioned at the bottom end of the agitator post and in mechanical communication with the shaft such that a direction of rotation of the shaft causes the plurality of movable tabs to be selectively movable along a radial direction between an extended position in contact with the receptacle that prevents rotation of the agitator post relative to the receptacle and a retracted position that allows rotation of the agitator post relative to the receptacle.
Clickable cable trays
The present disclosure provides an assembly having a plurality of cable trays, a first cable tray of the plurality of cable trays including a bottom and a set of upright sides extending between a first end and a second end, and a barb and a barb opening along each upright side of the set of upright sides. The barb may extend from an end of the barb opening, wherein a portion of the opening of a first cable tray of the two or more cable trays extends beyond, and remains uncovered by, a second end of a second cable tray of the plurality of cable trays when the first and second cable trays are connected.
CONNECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONNECTING COMPONENTS WITH TOLERANCE COMPENSATION
A connection system includes at least a first part and at least a second part, both comprising a connection surface and being configured to be connected to each other. A plurality of engagement elements is protruding from the connection surface of the first part and from the connection surface of the second part. For connecting different components, the parts are positioned such that their connection surfaces are facing each other. A ductile material is positioned between the connection surfaces of the parts to be connected to each other. The parts are pressed together, wherein the engagement elements are pressed into the ductile material at required positions, thereby compensating position deviations.
Irrigation system having improved construction system and adjustable crown height
An irrigation system having a pipeline supported by one or more towers includes an improved truss connection system having a means for readily adjusting a crown height of the pipeline. A pair of cooperating members define a joint which selectively couples headed ends of adjacent truss rods together to form a truss rail of a truss system that supports the pipeline. A single fastener may fasten the cooperating members, a strut, and a cross-member together at the joint. A length of the truss rail may be decreased by holding the truss rods closer together. In an aspect, the headed ends of the adjacent truss rods are held closer together by inserting a shim in one of the joints. Decreasing the length of the truss rail increases the deflection of the pipeline and raises the crown height.
Modular light pole assembly and method of assembling a modular light pole
A light pole assembly, and a method of assembling a light pole assembly that facilitates securement of multiple light pole segments. The light pole assembly includes a first pole shaft, a second pole shaft, and a mounting connector. Dimensions of the first pole shaft and the second pole shaft are substantially the same and dimensions of the mounting connector are smaller than the dimensions of the first pole shaft and of the second pole shaft.
Clickable cable trays
Cable trays which can be pushed inside one another and can be clicked onto one another. Assemblies include cable trays, barbs for cable trays and related methods.
JOINT FOR ABOVE GROUND POOL FRAME
An above ground frame pool is disclosed including a frame assembly and a liner supported by the frame assembly. The frame assembly includes a plurality of horizontal pipes, a plurality of vertical pipes, and a plurality of T-shaped joints. The joints may lack mechanical fasteners with adjacent pipes or corresponding apertures. The joints may be one-piece or multi-piece structures. Such joints may be water-resistant and convenient to manufacture, assemble, disassemble, and store.
REBAR COUPLER
The present invention relating to a rebar coupler that mutually connects and fixes a rebar in a longitudinal direction comprises: a pair of coupler bodies that are formed in a cylindrical shape through which the inside is penetrated, formed of an inlet in one side through which the rebar is inserted, and formed of a fixing piece contact surface inclined toward the inlet inside the penetrated passage; a connecting unit disposed between the pair of coupler bodies to mutually couple the opposite ends of the inlet of each coupler body; a plurality of fixing pieces arranged radially inside the coupler body, wherein an outer surface is installed to contact the fixing piece contact surface, and wherein a plurality of locking protrusions are formed in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, to fix the rebar inserted through the inlet; and an elastic member provided inside the coupler body to press the plurality of fixing pieces toward the inlet.
Solar tracker with kinematic coupling
The present invention concerns a solar tracker (1000) comprising at least: A drive module (1100) comprising at least one mobile device comprising at least: At least one additional module (1200) configured to be driven by the drive module (1100), each additional module (1200) comprising at least one additional mobile device comprising at least:
characterized in that: Said solar tracker (1000) comprises at least one kinematic device (1300) for coupling said drive module (1100) and said additional module (1200); Said kinematic coupling device (1300) comprising at least one first part (1330) and at least one second part (1340), said first part (1330) being entirely supported by the mobile device of the drive module (1100) and said second part (1340) being entirely supported by the additional mobile device of the additional module (1200).
