An apparatus for mounting an O-ring to a work piece, including: a plurality of picking components operable to move away from each other to contact and expand the O-ring to pick the O-ring or to move towards each other to release the O-ring; and a guiding component including a frustum portion arranged coaxially with a groove of the work piece, a large end face of the frustum portion arranged adjacent to an end surface of the work piece on which the groove is formed, wherein a diameter of the large end face is substantially same as an inner diameter of the groove, wherein the picking components are operable to release the O-ring onto a tapered surface of the frustum portion so that the O-ring is pushed into the groove along the tapered surface.

An implantable medical device deployment system is disclosed that employs both a sheath element and a constraint member to protect implantable medical devices during delivery in a body while providing simple, accurate, and reliable device deployment. The delivery system is configured so that loading and deployment forces are not directly related to device diameter, length, or design, thus allowing a more universal delivery system across various delivered device configurations and product lines. The deployment system can provide numerous benefits, include better protection for drug-coated implantable devices.

A headband or head cover including an elastic glitter or plain ribbon, a top portion of which forms the outside of the headband, where the elastic glitter or plain ribbon has a substantially 360-degree glitter pattern. The headband further includes a stretch velvet ribbon, a bottom portion of which forms the inside of the headband. The elastic glitter or plain ribbon is attached to the stretch velvet ribbon using a stretch and stitch method. The bottom of the stretch velvet ribbon includes a velvet-like material that forms a gripping portion. The outside of the headband includes a 360-degree view with no break. The inside of the headband includes 360-degree gripping portion with no break.

This pot comprises a shell (9) comprising a bottom (15) so that the pot (1) can be placed on a surface (3), and a side part (17), and an insert (11) designed to contain the cosmetic product (2). The insert (11) is designed to be inserted into the shell (9) and fixed on it in an assembled position of the pot (1), in which the insert (11) and the shell (19) define an interstitial space (43) extending in front of the bottom (15) and the side part (17). The pot (1) also comprises a mechanical tensioning element (13) of the shell (9) that can be in a compressed position between the shell (9) and the insert (11) when the shell (9) and the insert (11) are in the assembled position.

A retaining ring anti-migration system and method. A retaining ring anti-migration system for a centrifugal pump shaft includes a pair of trap sleeves that enclose a pair of retaining rings, one retaining ring around each end of the shaft enclosed by one trap sleeve, the pair of retaining rings configured to bound axial migration of the shaft both upwards and downwards. A retaining ring anti-migration system includes a retaining ring seated in a shaft groove extending circumferentially around an electric submersible pump (ESP) shaft, a trap sleeve extending around the ESP shaft adjacent to the retaining ring, the trap sleeve including a sleeve body secured to the ESP shaft such that the trap sleeve rotates with the ESP shaft, and a jacket extending axially from the sleeve body over an outer diameter of the retaining ring with a clearance between the shaft and the jacket.

A turbine section for a gas turbine engine includes a turbine blade that extends radially outwardly to a radially outer tip and for rotation about an axis of rotation. A support structure is arranged circumferentially about the axis of rotation and has a plurality of attachment members that extend radially inwardly. A blade outer air seal has a plurality of segments mounted in the support structure. Each segment has a first wall circumferentially spaced from a second wall. The first and second walls are joined to a base portion and an outer wall to define a passage that extends axially along the segment.

A method of inserting a pin in a bore of an article may include first providing an article with a bore, the bore having an inside diameter. The method may then include providing a pin having a hollow body, the hollow body having a diameter with a profile with a pattern of voids. The method may then include applying an axial force on an end of the hollow body to cause the diameter of the pin to reduce in size to a point where the diameter of the pin is less than the inside diameter of the article. The method may further include aligning the pin inside of the bore of the article, and then removing the axial force on the end of the hollow body.

A headband or head cover including an elastic glitter or plain ribbon, a top portion of which forms the outside of the headband, where the elastic glitter or plain ribbon has a substantially 360-degree glitter pattern. The headband further includes a stretch velvet ribbon, a bottom portion of which forms the inside of the headband. The elastic glitter or plain ribbon is attached to the stretch velvet ribbon using a stretch and stitch method. The bottom of the stretch velvet ribbon includes a velvet-like material that forms a gripping portion. The outside of the headband includes a 360-degree view with no break. The inside of the headband includes 360-degree gripping portion with no break.

The present application discloses an apparatus for separating and feeding O-rings, which includes a rotatable body including a storage portion and a separating portion; and a helix groove formed on the rotatable body across the storage portion and the separating portion, wherein a width and a depth of the helix groove are adapted to a wire diameter of a O-ring, and pitch of the helix groove on the separating portion increases along a feeding direction from the storage portion to the separating portion, wherein in response to a rotation of the rotatable body, the helix groove conveys a plurality of O-rings hanged on the storage portion to the separating portion to thereby separate the plurality of O-rings away from each other.
