SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING LIGHTING FOR VARIOUS VENUES
Apparatus and associated methods relate to a lighting system configured to be suspended overhead between two supporting structures. A tensile force will be imparted to the lighting system as a consequence of suspending the lighting system overhead. The lighting system can include one or more lighting sections connected end to end. Each of the lighting sections has a structural support cable and a light string coupled thereto. Each of the lighting sections has first and second end connectors on first and second ends of the lighting section. The first and second end connectors provide mechanical connection between adjacent structural support cables as well as electrical connection between adjacent light strings. The lighting sections are configured such that the tensile force imparted to the lighting section is mostly borne by the structural support cable.
Clip assembly for cylindrical component
A clip assembly for retaining a cylindrical component includes an insert having a retention channel in which a cylindrical component is accepted, and a holder into which the insert is fitted. The insert and the holder are fitted together by pushing the insert in a fitting direction that is perpendicular to a central axis of the cylindrical component received in the channel.
Pipe holding clip
The present disclosure relates to a pipe holding clip that defines a widthwise direction, a heightwise direction, and a lengthwise direction. The pipe holding clip can include a base portion, a pair of oppositely-arranged lateral portions extending upward from the base portion, a pair of holding arms extending inward from the pair of lateral portions and extending toward the base portion, and a support portion. Two sides of the support portion can be connected to the base portion or the pair of lateral portions. The support portion can include a working surface having an arc shape recessed toward the base portion. The pipe holding clip can provide a suitable holding force to limit the movement of a clamped pipe in an axial direction of the pipe.
PIPE VIBRATION-PROOF CHANNEL
Disclosed is a pipe vibration-proof channel capable of preventing vibration generated in a pipe from being transferred to the outside. Here, since a vertical channel connected to a horizontal channel on which the pipe is disposed is disposed to be separated from a structural section steel member, it is possible to prevent the vibration generated in the pipe from being transferred to the structural section steel member. Also, since a vibration-proof unit capable of absorbing the vibration of the pipe is disposed on a pipe fixing portion configured to fix a vibration-proof bracket and the pipe, it is possible to prevent the vibration of the pipe from being transferred to the vertical channel.
SYSTEM FOR SPACING AND FASTENING TUBULAR STRUCTURES
A tube spacing and fastening system for a gas turbine engine includes a plurality of tubular structures, a wear sleeve, a spacer element, and a fastening element. The plurality of tubular structures provides a fluid flow to a component of the gas turbine engine. The wear sleeve is located around each of the plurality of tubular structures. The spacer element receives the plurality of tubular structures. The fastening element extends around the wear sleeves and is configured to secure the plurality of tubular structures to the spacer element. An interference between the fastening element and wear sleeves is configured to allow the fastening element to slide with respect to the wear sleeves and to provide a damping effect under gas turbine engine vibrations and operating conditions. A method of damping vibrations in the plurality of tubular structures includes allowing the fastening element to slide with respect to the wear sleeve.

Pipe support structure
A pipe support structure which is constructed to utilize the Coriolis force and the reaction force caused, thereby making it possible to suppress the hose compliance amount in the high temperature area while maintaining the degree of freedom of mountability specific for the resin pipe and to realize the above suppressing effect by the simple construction and at a low cost.

Bracket and use
A bracket for pipe profiles includes a body with a center hole for enclosing a pipe profile in the center hole where the body includes at least two non-elastic bracket parts with internal surfaces towards the center hole and external surfaces. The bracket parts' internal surfaces include at least two radial spokes with spoke end surfaces for contact against the pipe profile. A ring shaped elastic gasket may be placed around each spoke end surface, which together with the spoke end surfaces has contact against the pipe profile. The invention also includes use of the bracket for mounting pipe profiles. The bracket has a shape, which ensures hygienic tight connection between bracket and pipe profile and the pipe profile is mechanically supported. The bracket can therefore be used in environments with high hygiene requirements, for example in the foodstuff industry.
