Systems and devices for crimping a medical device and associated methods are disclosed herein. A crimping device configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, a frame including a stationary plate, a movable member, and a plurality of blades arranged to form a channel and each including a pin that projects through a slot on the movable member and a corresponding slot on the stationary plate. The crimping device can be actuated to move the movable member relative to the stationary plate to drive the pins along paths defined by the slots to thereby drive the blades radially inward to crimp a medical device positioned within the channel.

A cap and tube or seal setting apparatus comprises an anchor holding fixture having a surface for receiving a post tension anchor. An actuator is operably mounted to one side of the anchor holding fixture and in some embodiments has a cap setter attached to a movable part of the actuator. In some embodiments a tube or seal holding fixture is mounted to a support base and disposed on an opposed side of the anchor holding device.

Embodiments herein relate to grill systems. In an embodiment, a grill system is included. The grill system having a grill assembly and a first side assembly. The grill assembly can include a grill cart and a burner box configured to couple to a top portion of the grill cart. The burner box can include a first connection structure. The first side assembly that can include a first side cart and a first top cap configured to couple to a top portion of the first side cart. The first top cap can include a second connection structure. The first connection structure and the second connection structure mate together to couple the grill assembly to the first side assembly. Other embodiments are also included herein.

In accordance with embodiments of the invention there is provided an extraction system, and extraction apparatus (30) and method therefore in for removing studs from sockets. The system is particularly advantageous for removing one or more studs (28) from the sockets (24) of bell cranks (16) of steering systems of vehicles such as an Off-highway Truck. In a particular arrangement the apparatus (30) comprises a frame member (32) adapted to be attached to a pivot joint (14) for extraction of the stud (28) from the socket (16). Furthermore, the apparatus 30 comprises actuator means (34) adapted to be selectively displaced between an extended condition and a contracted condition for applying a force to the stud (28) so as extract or at least loosen the stud (28) from the socket (36). In a particular arrangement, the actuator (34) comprises a hydraulic actuator. The system is adapted to remotely operate the extraction apparatus (30).

An installation apparatus for mounting a garnish on a vehicle can include a jig, a tool and a controller. The jig can be placed on a predetermined portion of the flange and in a predetermined orientation relative to the flange. The jig can orient the tool in a predetermined orientation relative to the garnish when the jig is placed on the vehicle and the garnish is positioned adjacent to the vehicle. The controller can be configured to indicate an install complete condition based on force data and tool proximity data, where the force data is indicative of a force applied by the tool onto the garnish while the tool installs the garnish onto the first portion, and the tool proximity data is indicative of a proximity of the tool relative to a portion of the vehicle after the tool mounts the garnish onto the vehicle.

An insertion quality determinator is a determinator 1 that determines a quality of insertion of an insertion component 5 inserted into a hole formed in a work object. The insertion component 5 at least includes a head having the size that is impossible to be inserted into the hole, and a pillar-shaped body that extends from the head and has the thickness that is possible to be inserted into the hole. The determinator is configured to determine the quality of insertion based on positions of given parts P1-P4 of the head of the insertion component 5 inserted into the hole, in a direction perpendicular to an extending direction of the hole.
