A modular component fishing rod system that allows the end user to easily and securely change one or more of the handle portion and rod blank. The system includes a rod blank, rod sleeve assembly and a slide-on handle assembly. The rod sleeve assembly performs at least three functions including: 1) truing up the taper of the fishing rod blank to allow components of the handle assembly to be slid onto the rod blank from the butt end; 2) providing an indexing or key feature which registers with the handle assembly to maintain proper alignment between the handle assembly and rod blank; and 3) providing a method to attach the handle assembly to the rod sleeve. The handle assembly includes a corresponding female sleeve that mates with and preferably slides over the rod sleeve assembly and performs at least three functions including: 1) attaching a handle tube which includes a handle grip and reel seat to a the rod sleeve assembly; 2) matching indexing features; and 3) fixing the handle assembly to the rod sleeve assembly through one of a number of possible fastener assemblies.

A support member-attached wiring member includes: a wiring member flatly formed; a support member including a fitting part formed into a cylindrical shape opening in one portion in a circumferential direction so as to be able to be fitted to an outer peripheral part of a rod-like member; a penetration part passing through the wiring member in a state where the wiring member is disposed on an outer side of the support member; and a retaining part which does not pass through the wiring member but is provided on an outer side of the wiring member to prevent the penetration part from coming out of the wiring member.

An actuator arrangement includes an actuator screwshaft configured to receive a female connector, a lockpin having a male connector that is connected to the female connector. When the actuator screwshaft is rotated, in use, the lockpin is configured to move from a first position to a second position.

The invention discloses a connecting mechanism of a dildo. One end of a driving mechanism connecting end is connected to one end of a connecting mechanism body, and the other end of driving mechanism connecting end is provided with a driving mechanism connecting member. One end of a dildo connecting end is provided with a dildo connecting member, and the other end of the dildo connecting end is connected to the other end of the connecting mechanism body. The other end of the dildo connecting end is provided with a connecting column, the inside of the other end of the connecting mechanism body is provided with an internal connecting cavity matched with the connecting column, and the connecting column is inserted into the internal connecting cavity. A concave limiting groove is formed in the connecting column circumferentially, a limiting member embedding groove communicated with the internal connecting cavity is formed in an outer wall of the connecting mechanism body, and a limiting member is embedded in the limiting member embedding groove. An outer sleeve is sleeved over the outside of the connecting mechanism body, a protrusion I is arranged at an inner wall of the outer sleeve, and when the protrusion I corresponds to the limiting member embedding groove in position, the protrusion I exerts a pressure on the limiting member. The invention helps to solve the problem of easy separation of a dildo and a driving mechanism.

A joiner clip for use in a spacer frame assembly and method of assembly are disclosed herein. The joiner clip includes first and second arms coupled to and extending away from a body, the first and second arms comprising mirror images of each other across a first mirror image axis. The first and second arms are housed within a first channel end of a linear spacer frame when assembled. The joiner clip further includes third and fourth arms coupled to and extending away from the body and away from the first and second arms, the third and fourth arms comprising mirror images of each other across the first mirror image axis. The third and fourth arms are housed within an opposite frame end of the linear spacer frame when assembled. When assembled, the body spaces the first channel end from the opposite frame end.

A system and process for removably and replaceably coupling two hollow carbon fiber composite structures without the need for adhesives or welding. A universal coupling makes use of reciprocating catches in the end regions of the universal coupling. The reciprocating catches engage receiving features provided in the hollow carbon fiber composite structures to couple the hollow carbon fiber composite structures to the universal coupling, and through the universal coupling, couple the hollow carbon fiber composite structures together. The hollow carbon fiber composite structures can be uncoupled by disengaging the reciprocating catches of the universal coupling from the receiving features of the hollow carbon fiber composite structures.

A fastening apparatus for a vehicle may include: a first fastener fixed to a first structure, a second fastener coupled to a case fixed to a second structure and configured to have the first fastener inserted therein, a fixing unit movably installed in the second fastener and configured to move in a direction that intersects a direction in which the first fastener is inserted, and to selectively limit relative movements of the first fastener and the second fastener, and an elevation unit installed in the case in a way to move up and down, and configured to be moved up and down by an external force that is applied from a work tool and adjust the direction in which the fixing unit moves.

A connecting assembly includes: a connecting pipe, an inner wall of at least one end of the connecting pipe being provided with a pre-embedded nut, and the nut being coaxial with the connecting pipe; a connecting plate, the connecting plate being provided with a fixing hole; and a fastener, the fastener penetrating through the fixing hole and being in threaded fit with the nut. The connecting pipe is a light alloy component, and the connecting plate is a steel component. The connecting pipe is the light alloy component, the inner wall of at least one end of the connecting pipe is provided with the pre-embedded nut, and the fastener sequentially penetrates through the fixing hole on the connecting plate of a steel material and is in threaded fit with the nut at one end of the connecting pipe.

A structural joint includes a first compression element and a second compression element. The first and second compression elements each define an exterior profile geometry tailored to accommodate a set of loading conditions. A first structural member with a distal end portion is disposed adjacent the first compression element and a first gap is defined therebetween, and a second structural member with a distal end portion is disposed adjacent the second compression element and a second gap is defined therebetween. A first adhesive fills the first gap and a second adhesive fills the second gap. A joint cover body extends over the distal end portions of the first and second structural members.
