Connector and fence using same
A connector is characterized by comprising a T-shaped main body, three connecting components and two connecting tubes, wherein the connecting components are arranged on one surface of the main body and located at three endpoints of the T-shaped main body. Each connecting component comprises a concave groove body and a connecting column which is arranged in a cavity of the concave groove body, wherein a gap exists between the connecting column and the inner wall of the concave groove body. The two connecting tubes are arranged between two connecting components at the bottom of the T-shaped main body side by side. Each connecting tube penetrates through the main body. Connecting holes are formed in the other surface of the main body.
Animal crate with removably coupled divider panel assembly
A divider panel assembly for being assembled within an interior of an animal enclosure includes a body defined by a plurality of interconnecting horizontal and vertical wires, the body including a height and width defined by a top horizontal wire, a bottom horizontal wire, a first vertical wire and a second vertical wire. A hook end is formed by at least one of the plurality of horizontal or vertical wires of the body, the hook end configured to engage with the animal enclosure. A clip is rotatably coupled to the first vertical wire or the second vertical wire, where the clip includes a first defined opening for receiving the first or second vertical wire and a second opening configured for receiving a wire of the animal enclosure.
NET REPAIR PATCH LATCHING UNIT AND A SYSTEM FOR A NET PATCHING
A net repair patch latching unit comprising one or more carabiners. The carabiner of the net repair patch latching unit comprises at least one load-bearing section; a spine and a forepart; one or more first grooves configured to accommodate a yarn of the net to be repaired; at least one elongated bendable part having a distal end and a proximal end. The elongated bendable part comprises at least one transitional bending area connecting the spine and the proximal end of the at least one bendable part; one or more guiding nudges protruding from the load-bearing section; one or more attaching element protruding from the load-bearing section.
ADAPTER FOR MOUNTING CABLE HANGERS
An adapter for a cable hanger includes: a housing having a floor, a vertical wall extending generally perpendicularly from the floor, and side walls extending generally perpendicularly from the floor and vertical wall, each of the side walls including a finger extending generally parallel to the floor, the fingers including first engagement features, the vertical wall including a mounting hole; and a plunger having a main panel and second engagement features on opposite sides of the main panel, the second engagement features configured to engage the first engagement features to restrict relative movement of the plunger relative to the housing.
SIGNAGE AND METHOD OF PACKAGING THE SAME
A sign having a display section formed from two pliable sheets and a frame assembly having members joined by various connector pieces. The connector pieces may include couplers and corner pieces. The connector pieces may be used to construct the frame assembly. The connector pieces may also be used to stow the frame assembly when the sign is not in use or being packaged for shipment and also during shipment. For example, the connector pieces may cover the ends of frame assembly members to keep them organized and to keep the members from piercing packaging or other parts of the sign.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SECURING MEDICAL DEVICES
A system comprises a substrate having a plurality of apertures, and a clip. The clip is removably coupled to one of the plurality of apertures. The clip has a body, a plurality of fingers, a first leg, a second leg, a first notch, and a second notch. The fingers extend from the body to collectively form at least two tube-engaging regions. The first leg is adjacent to a first end of the body and extends from the body opposite the fingers. The second leg is adjacent to a second end of the body and extends from the body opposite the fingers. The first notch is adjacent to the first end of the body and is configured to receive a first portion of the substrate. The second notch is adjacent to the second end of the body and is configured to receive a second portion of the substrate.
Low-profile sensor circuit mounting fixture
A mounting fixture for mounting a sensor circuit to a support rail is disclosed. In various embodiments, the mounting fixture includes a bracket having a base portion and a first flange member extending from the base portion; a clamp fixture connected to the first flange member, the clamp fixture including a plate member; a first pin extending through the first flange member and the plate member; and a first fastener threaded on to the first pin and configured to secure the plate member to the first flange member.
Tubing support system
A mechanism for securing tubes in a fixed position is described wherein a body to which a tube is to be fixed has at least one smooth bore hole extending therethrough. A tube has an inner diameter accommodating fluid flow and an outer diameter passing through the smooth bore hole in slip fit relation with the smooth bore of the hole. A threaded hole with helical grooves is parallel to the smooth bore hole and located such that its grooves intersect the diameter of the smooth bore hole. A set screw made of a tougher material than the tube has threads that will seat in the threaded hole in a manner such that advancing the set screw scratches the outer diameter of the tube to a depth wherein the set screw retains the tube in place without deformation of the inner diameter of the tube whereby fluid flow in the tube is not affected by advancement of the set screw while the tube is retained in place by the set screw. The invention can connect tubes in all sorts of patterns with many center-to-center tube distances.
ANIMAL CRATE WITH REMOVABLY COUPLED DIVIDER PANEL ASSEMBLY
A divider panel assembly for being assembled within an interior of an animal enclosure includes a body defined by a plurality of interconnecting horizontal and vertical wires, the body including a height and width defined by a top horizontal wire, a bottom horizontal wire, a first vertical wire and a second vertical wire. A hook end is formed by at least one of the plurality of horizontal or vertical wires of the body, the hook end configured to engage with the animal enclosure. A clip is rotatably coupled to the first vertical wire or the second vertical wire, where the clip includes a first defined opening for receiving the first or second vertical wire and a second opening configured for receiving a wire of the animal enclosure.
Clamp for fire and overheat detection system
A method of additively manufacturing a fire and overheat detection system (FODS) clamp onto a rail tube is provided. The method includes building a base of a clamp body on the rail tube, sequentially building portions of a locking feature and holders of the clamp body on the base and sequentially building remaining portions of the holders and flanges forming grooves at each of the holders of the clamp body on the base.
