A single piece roll-formed frame comprising a first channel having a base section and one or more legs, each leg comprising an upper side extending from the base section at a first angle and a lower side extending from the upper side at a second angle, a second channel having a base section and one or more legs, each leg comprising an upper side extending from the base section at the first angle and a lower side extending from the upper side at the second angle and wherein the base section of the first channel and the base section of the second channel are formed from a single piece and intersect to form a third angle, and the upper side of each leg of the first channel overlaps the upper side of each leg of the second channel.

A self-aligning swaging punch is provided for adjoining together a pin and a workpiece having a pinhole. The swaging punch comprises a shaft and a tip having an open-ended cavity. The shaft transfers an axial force from a press or hammer to the tip. The tip transfers the axial force from the shaft to a top surface of the workpiece near the pinhole. The tip may be spherical in shape for evenly deforming the workpiece near the upper edge of the pinhole. The open-ended cavity receives the pin therein and allows the pin to extend at least partially into the open-ended cavity while the tip contacts the workpiece. The open-ended cavity also ensures that the swaging punch is aligned with the pinhole and perpendicular to the surface of the workpiece when the pin is inserted into the pinhole such that the workpiece evenly deforms and presses against the pin.

A retainer for connecting a pair of sanitary fittings each having a first end and a second end, the second ends each having a flanged portion, includes a first member having a through center aperture, the first member adapted to receive at least a portion of each of the flanged portions and a second member having a through center aperture and engageable over the first member, the second member adapted to provide a compressive force to sealingly connect the flanged portions when the first and second members are in an assembled configuration.

Power tools with housings or hammer cases include a thin wall titanium shell tapering from a smaller forward section to a larger rearward section; with at least the rearward section having a wall with a substantially constant wall thickness and an interface flange that includes an outer perimeter profile that is curvilinear and defines a plurality of outwardly extending detents that provide an interference fit with the wall of the hammer case.

A cage with a fastening system (1) in a magnetic resonance device (MRD) is disclosed, said cage in an MRD comprising (a) M pole pieces (45) (M2); (b) N side magnets (20) (N2), said side magnets substantially enclosing said pole pieces and thereby defining a magnetic envelope and enclosed volume therein; (c) N side walls (10), said side walls substantially enclosing said side magnets; (d) P face walls (30) (P2); and (e) a plurality of fastening rods (100); wherein each of said fastening rods physically interconnects at least one pair of side walls, passing through at least one of said side magnets and at least one of said pole pieces.

A gas injector system is provided that allows for improved distribution and directional control of the vapor material in a CVD or CVI process. Gas injector systems may be used without experiencing significant clogging of gas injector tube apertures over multiple CVD procedures. Further, a gas injector system provided includes a dual aperture release system and/or allow vapor material to flow both substantially horizontally and substantially vertically.

A cam lock fitting having a rotating female portion which may include a safety lock which prevents separation of the male and the female portions of the fitting to prevent inadvertent pressurized discharges. Rotation of the female portion is accomplished by placing a connecting collar on the rear of the female end portion so that the female portion rotates about the connecting collar. The safety lock mechanism operates by placing opposing notches in the end of the male portion so that when the cam levers are opened the male and female portions of the cam lock fitting initially only slightly separate allowing the operator to quickly reclose the cam lock fitting if it contains pressurized material. The rotating female portion easily aligns the cam lobes of the cam lever with the notches on the male coupling so that the male and female portions can be separated.

A tooling assembly, including a cermet tooling body and a plastic support structure operationally connected to the cermet tooling body. The plastic support structure at least partially encapsulates the cermet tooling body. The plastic support structure includes a plastic matrix portion and a plurality of high magnetic permeability metallic particles distributed throughout the plastic matrix portion. Each respective high magnetic permeability metallic particle has a magnetic permeability of at least 0.0001 H/m and each respective high magnetic permeability metallic particle has a relative magnetic permeability of about 8000. The plastic matrix portion is selected from the group consisting of high molecular mass polymers, thermoplastics, thermosetting polymers, amorphous plastics, crystalline plastics, resin-based materials, and combinations thereof.

Power tools with housings or hammer cases include a thin wall titanium shell tapering from a smaller forward section to a larger rearward section; with at least the rearward section having a wall with a substantially constant wall thickness and an interface flange that includes an outer perimeter profile that is curvilinear and defines a plurality of outwardly extending detents that provide an interference fit with the wall of the hammer case.
