Anti-dogleg electronic measurement device
A method and electronic measurement device are provided for putting multiple bends in a conduit while controlling the angular relationship of the bends relative to each other about the longitudinal axis of the conduit. The device includes an electronic component configured to generate a first signal that varies based on an angle of rotation of the component about an x-axis, and a housing carrying the electronic component and having a conduit mount structure configured to mount the housing on a conduit with the x-axis in parallel alignment with the longitudinal axis of the conduit.

Metal middle frame machining process
The present disclosure relates to a process of machining a metal middle frame, which includes the following steps of: obtaining a sheet material and cutting the sheet material into a linear profile; performing a finish machining to the linear profile; bending the linear profile after the finish machining, obtaining a metal border frame with an R angle; welding the metal border frame; and placing the metal border frame after the welding in a die-casting mold, providing a die-casting metal liquid, thereby obtaining a die-cast middle plate connected to the metal border frame, so as to form the metal middle frame.
ROLL BENDING APPARATUS
A roll bending apparatus includes: a roll pair formed by a pair of rolls disposed facing each other, the roll pair being configured to sandwich an elongated material between the rolls to perform forming on the elongated material; a slide mechanism configured to slide the roll pair in a first normal direction that is a direction normal to a conveying direction of the elongated material on a plane including the conveying direction; and a tilt mechanism configured to rotate the roll pair about a tilt axis that extends in a second normal direction that is a direction orthogonal to the conveying direction and the first normal direction. The slide mechanism further slides the roll pair to change a position of the roll pair relative to the tilt axis.

CONDUIT BENDER
A powered conduit bending tool is configured to bend conduit. The tool comprises a housing, a motor contained within the housing, and a battery removably coupled to the housing to provide power to the motor. An output shaft extends from the housing and is driven by the motor to rotate about an axis. A head is coupled to the output shaft for rotation therewith. The head includes a curved channel for receiving the conduit. A guide is coupled to the housing and supported opposite the curved channel of the head. The guide includes a latching handle movable between a closed position and an open position. The motor drives the head to rotate relative to the housing so that the curved channel and the guide cooperate to bend the pipe.
