The present disclosure relates to a railroad track tool apparatus. The apparatus comprises a tool configured to perform an operation to the rail of the railroad track, a clamp assembly, and a coupling. The clamp assembly is moveable between a clamped position and an unclamped position to removably couple the tool with the rail. The clamp assembly is moveable along the rail. The coupling is configured to couple the tool to the clamp assembly. The coupling comprises a pivot, a linkage assembly comprising an arm coupled to the pivot, and a head coupled to the linkage assembly. The coupling is configured such that the tool is moveable between an inner side and an outer side of the rail, rotatable toward and away from the inner side or the outer side of the rail, and rotatable toward and away from an underside of the rail.

A system includes an abrasion assembly containing one or more abrasion pads configured to clean a faying surface of multiple nutplates, and a shaft attached to at least one of the abrasion pads and configured to rotate some or all of the abrasion pads during cleaning, wherein cleaning includes abrading the faying surfaces with the abrasion pads. The system also includes a base configured to attach to a pressure applicator, and a pressure applicator configured to attach to the base, hold the nutplates such that the faying surface of each nutplate is capable of contacting one of the abrasion pads, and apply pressure to the nutplates such that each of the nutplates contact one of the abrasion pads during the cleaning. Furthermore, the abrasion assembly is configured to rotate the abrasion pads within at least one of the base and the pressure applicator during cleaning.

A portable rail system for mounting an engraving device includes rails and crossbar members that are precisely joined, and include height adjustment devices for incrementally adjusting the height of the rail system relative to a work surface or contact surface, thus making the portable rail system capable of being assembled and disassembled at a work site to enable the use of an engraving device, such as a CNC router engraving systems, in situ, or on-site, rather than in a workshop. The portable rail system enables the use of a CNC router device or other engraving device on vertical surfaces.

An adjustable mount for a handheld sander. The adjustable mount includes a base that is adapted to engage with a work table. The adjustable mount also includes a pivot table that pivotably engages with the base. The adjustable mount also includes a clamping assembly that operably engages with the pivot table for securing the handheld sander with the adjustable mount. The pivot table, the clamping assembly, and the handheld sander are collectively rotatable relative to the base for providing the handheld sander at at least one ergonomic position.

An automated rover device removes material from opposite surfaces of an elongate part, such as a composite stiffener. The device includes a pair of material removal tools along with a vacuum assembly for vacuuming away material removed by the tools.

A pipe beveling tool has an arcuate pipe adapter mechanically attached to a wedge member, which is itself mechanically attached to a connecting bracket which is itself mechanically fastened to a disc cover member in such a way that both the disc cover member, and the connecting bracket clamp onto a grinding tool section proximal a grinding disc by way of tightening thereonto. The pipe adapter has a pair of flaps hingedly attached to a fixed adapter member so as to adapt to various pipe diameters.
