PLASTIC OPERATING GRIP APPARATUS
An apparatus for securing a portion of a vertical line feeder in a fixed position relative to a horizontal water return pipe having a resilient plastic body having a curved lower portion dimensioned to be received by the curvature of the horizontal water return pipe and, proximate the upper portion of the body, a protrusion dimensioned to be received in an aperture located at the base of a vertical line feeder. The body is generally a triangular shaped cylinder with an upper curved vertex, a first lower curved vertex and a second lower curved vertex. A channel is formed through the body for receiving a hose clamp. The hose clamp secures the resilient body to the horizontal water return pipe.
Pipe fixing device
A pipe fixing device comprising a plurality of pipes, for conducting liquid or gas, arranged to cross each other, and a fixing member for fixing the plurality of pipes. The fixing member comprises a plurality of pipe fixing bores, and a plurality of fitting bores for the fitting of bands used to tighten the pipes. The present invention can secure not only easy insertion of the pipes arranged to cross each other, but also enhancement in a coupling force of the pipes through the use of the tightening bands, resulting in stable and reliable fixation of the pipes.
Pipe-On-Pipe Pipe Support Apparatus and Method of Use
A pipe-on-pipe pipe support apparatus and method of use is disclosed. The pipe support apparatus has an upper corrugated support surface comprised of a series of valleys and ridges and a bottom have a support surface that conforms to the curved or circular surface of an underlying pipe support structure such as a pipe. The bottom surface and support surface create flanges or guides to hold the pipe support apparatus upon the underlying pipe support structure. The support surface may be a skid-resistant support surface. The supported piping is positioned to rest solely upon the ridges on the upper surface of the pipe support apparatus.
ROOFTOP EQUIPMENT SUPPORT AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE
A roof equipment support includes a platform, a pair of sidewalls extending from the platform, and a top wall extending between the pair of sidewalls and offset from the platform. The platform, the pair of sidewalls, and the top wall define an interior cavity that extends a length of the support from a first end to a second end. A pair of strut extensions extend above the top wall, and each of the pair of strut extension include a hook at a distal end. The pair of strut extensions and the top wall define a substantially U-shaped channel that extends at least a portion of the length of the support, and the platform, the pair of sidewalls, the top wall, and the pair of strut extensions are unitarily formed.

Plumbing support system
A system for installing drain pipes and water supply lines in relation to the drain pipes is disclosed. The system includes a bracket for attachment to the drain pipe with support arms to hold water supply lines at desired locations in relation to the drain pipe. The bracket may comprise a collar for attachment to the drain pipe with indexing protrusions or shoulders to orient the bracket with respect to the drain pipe, and support arms extending outwardly from the collar to support the supply lines. The system may also include a bracket for securing the drain pipe in relation to the structure.
HOSE RETAINER
A hose retainer configured to support individual hoses from a plurality of hoses comprises a first apparatus and a second apparatus. The first apparatus may comprise a first conduit for receiving a first hose from the plurality of hoses, and the second apparatus may comprise a second conduit for receiving a second hose from the plurality of hoses. The first conduit may extend in a first plane and the second conduit may extend in a second plane. The first apparatus may further comprise a first plurality of protrusions radially spaced about a first central axis and extend from a first surface. The second apparatus may further comprise a second plurality of protrusion radially spaced apart about a second central axis and extend from a second surface. The first plurality of protrusions and the second plurality of protrusions may interlock.
Seismic clamp for non-structural components in a building
A seismic clamp for securing a utility pipe to a rigid rod includes a pipe holder that secures the utility pipe to the seismic clamp. A rod fitting secures the rigid rod to the seismic clamp so that the rigid rod extends transverse to the utility pipe. A spacer is disposed between the holder and the rod fitting. The spacer inhibits the rigid rod from contacting the utility pipe when the utility pipe is secured to the seismic clamp, and the rigid rod is secured to the seismic clamp.
Receiving device and cable harness
A receiving device, in particular a distributor, for receiving a tube for electric cables, comprises a main part with at least one receiving section in which an end portion of the tube can be received. The main part has first and second half-shells, between which the end portion is arranged. The receiving device also comprises multiple spring-elastically deformable engagement sections which protrude radially into the receiving section and which are designed to engage into the tube in a formfitting manner, wherein first and second proportions of the engagement sections are respectively provided on the half-shells; and an annular section which encircles the receiving section and on which the engagement sections are provided. The annular section is divided into first and second annular segments which are respectively paired with the half-shells. The first annular segment protrudes into the second half-shell in a closed state of the receiving device.
Walking assist system and detachable mobile assist bench
According to at least one example, a walking assist system includes a walker having a pair of laterally opposed upright tubular structures connected by at least one laterally-extending tubular portion. The walking assist system also includes a seating device having a first tubular structure formed in an inverted Upivotably connected by a hinge mechanism to a second tubular structure formed in an inverted U-shape. The seating device also defines a stowed configuration and a deployed configuration. The walking assist system further includes a retention clip defining a first opposing end configured to removably clamp to at least one of an upright tubular structure and the laterally-extending tubular portion of the walker. The retention clip also defines a second opposing end configured to removably clamp to at least one tubular structure of the seating device.
