The current invention refers to a paintless dent removal tip having a rare earth magnetic sphere which is free to rotate within a mounting cup and attach itself to the inside of a motor vehicle panel at a point on the magnet dictated by its polarity, so that maximum magnetic flux attracts a ferromagnetic ball trace on the panel's outer surface, indicating the exact position of the part of the magnet touching the panel, regardless of the angle at which the tip is held, and so showing the user where to apply pressure to remove a dent.

A system and method for designing a customized vehicle repair configuration for effectively measuring and repairing the structure of a damaged vehicle body is disclosed. The system provides a vehicle repair assembly comprising a universal jig assembly, that allows the user to diagnose the damage of the repair structure or vehicle body. The vehicle repair assembly comprises a support frame, the jig assembly, a plate and a height adapter. After diagnosis of the vehicle body, the system is configured to customize the jig assembly respective of the repair structure to generate a customized vehicle repair assembly. The system is further configured to provide edit access to the generated customized vehicle repair assembly to a number of users to tune the generated vehicle repair configuration.

An apparatus and a method for correcting a vehicle member, by which twisting or deflection of a vehicle member including a side member of the vehicle, may be corrected, may be disclosed, wherein the apparatus for correcting a vehicle member includes a base extending in a lengthwise direction thereof, and a plurality of correction units disposed on the base to be movable.

A paintless dent removal tool, method and system for automatically removing a dent from a vehicle. The paintless dent removal tool includes a stabilizer assembly, a sleeve, a threaded chamber and a threaded rod positioned within the threaded chamber of the sleeve. Wherein, upon a rotational force being applied to the top end of the threaded rod, the threaded rod is configured to rotate within the threaded chamber raising the sleeve upwards towards the top of the stabilizer assembly, such that when a glue tab is connected to the tab connector the paintless dent removal tool automatically pulls the glue tab upward to substantially pull out the dent in the surface of the vehicle.

A novel dent-puller assisting apparatus, system, and method are disclosed herein. The invention provides a stable anchor point for the attachment of a variety of mechanisms to be used in the process of straightening or repair of car body panels. The invention is designed to require a minimum number of parts and connections, be easy to install and operate, and have sufficient flexibility to accomplish the required ends.

A driven member of a metal peening machine is disclosed. The metal peening machine is configured to drive the driven member into contact with a work surface of a metal workpiece to deform the metal workpiece. The driven member includes a shaft with an impact end. The driven member includes least one of a plurality of impact features, an impact feature with a non-flat impact surface, a non-round impact feature, and an asymmetrical impact feature that is coupled to and protrudes from the impact end of the shaft. The at least one of the plurality of impact features, the impact feature with a non-flat impact surface, the non-round impact feature, and the asymmetrical impact feature define at least one impact surface to be driven into contact with the work surface of the metal workpiece.
