Tooling for clocking dual eccentric bushings of a clevis so that the clevis and a lug can be pinned together, comprises a pin and a sleeve. The pin comprises a pin cylindrical portion, a plate-engagement portion, and a stop surface. The sleeve comprises a sleeve cylindrical outer surface and a sleeve interior channel that has an interior-channel central axis, which is parallel to and offset from a sleeve-cylindrical-outer-surface central axis. The pin cylindrical portion is configured to be received by the sleeve interior channel with a slip fit. The tooling further comprises a squaring plate that comprises a squaring-plate abutment surface, configured to contact the stop surface, and a squaring-plate opening configured to receive the plate-engagement portion of the pin with a slip fit.

An adjustable mounting apparatus for electronic devices is configured to be adaptable to various support structures, and to facilitate a customized mount orientation for the electronic devices through several degrees of pivot freedom. The mounting apparatus is particularly adaptable to outdoor or industrial environments in which standard support structure modalities may not be available.

A spherical joint includes a body portion and a blocking portion. The body portion includes a ball portion and a joint portion. The ball portion and the joint portion have an inner surface that links the two portions together in an axial direction and an outer surface opposite to the inner surface. The outer surface of the ball portion includes a spherical surface. The body portion further includes a first section and a second section. Each of the first section and the second section intersects with the inner surface and the outer surface such that the two sections together define a gap. The blocking portion is detachably connected to the body portion and shaped to match the gap, so that the blocking portion blocks the gap to form a hollow spherical joint structure. Further disclosed in the present application are a spherical joint assembly and an ultrasonic imaging device.

A portable information handling system rotationally couples housing portions with a variable torque hinge having a first axle that rotates with a first housing portion, a second axle that rotates with a second housing portion and a synchronizing gear assembly that translates rotation between the first and second axles. Variable torque is applied by selectively engaging and disengaging a coupler gear with the synchronizing gear assembly to apply and remove an increased torque that resists housing rotation. In one embodiment, the coupler gear is an idler gear of the synchronizing gear mechanism that selectively applies and removes an increase torque of the second axle to the first axle. The coupler gear slides in response to an actuator, such as an electro-permanent magnet acting on a ferromagnetic material with high and low magnetic attraction states.

The invention relates to a support of a ball-joint housing for a connecting rod of a windshield wiper actuating linkage system, the support having a ball-joint housing that extends along a longitudinal axis (B) and is configured to be received in a complementary orifice in the connecting rod. According to the invention, the support is configured to be rotationally joined to the connecting rod. The invention also relates to a connecting rod configured to be rotationally joined to such a support, and to the corresponding joining method.

An angle adjustment apparatus is provided, and includes a fastening component and an angle adjustment component rotatably connected to the fastening component. At least a part of the angle adjustment component is located in the fastening component, and the angle adjustment component can rotate in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction relative to the fastening component. In this way, angle adjustment efficiency is improved. In addition, a communication device can be prevented from being oblique after angle adjustment, thereby preventing a signal coverage function of the communication device from being affected.

A terminal device with a folding screen includes a coupling device with a middle frame fixing member, a first transmission assembly, a second transmission assembly and a third transmission assembly. A first transmission assembly is rotatable relative to the middle frame fixing member during rotation of the middle frame fixing member. The second transmission assembly has a first end hinged to the first transmission assembly and a second end slidably coupled to the first transmission assembly, and the second transmission assembly converts a rotation action of the first transmission assembly into a moving action along a second direction. A third end of the third transmission assembly pushes the middle frame fixing member to move towards a first side facing away from the first transmission assembly or a second side towards the first transmission assembly during the rotation of the middle frame fixing member.

An actuated shear pin includes an actuator and pin body coupled to the actuator. The actuator selectively configures the pin body in a locking configuration or a stowed configuration. In the locking configuration, the pin body is placed in a travel path of two components configured to move relative to each other, to inhibit such relative movement. In the stowed configuration, the pin body is out of the travel path, thereby allowing the two components to move relative to each other.
