A positioning tool is configured for retaining an undersized, bore-less indexable cutting insert. The cutting insert may have a triangular or trigonal shape. The positioning tool has an outwardly facing insert retaining surface which has an elongated shape which corresponds to a shape of a side of the undersized cutting insert. The positioning tool is configured to retain the cutting insert using magnetic force, electrostatic force and/or adhesive force. A milling kit may include such a positioning tool, along with one or more such undersized cutting inserts. The milling kit may optionally also include a milling tool having one or more insert pockets configured to accommodate such cutting inserts, and may further optionally include one or more clamping screws configured to clampingly and externally secure such inserts in the pocket without passing through the inserts.

The present invention relates to a magnetic plate for attracting cartridges. The magnetic plate comprises an upper cover, a support frame and a lower cover. The upper cover, the support frame and the lower cover are connected fixedly in order from top to bottom. The upper cover and the lower cover are engaged and form a case. The support frame is positioned within the case. Magnetic components are mounted between the support frame and the lower cover. The magnetic components comprise metal members and magnetic steel members connected fixedly to the metal members. The metal members are stuck on the bottom surface of the support frame. The metal steel members include first magnetic steel members and second magnetic steel members. The first magnetic steel members are arranged on the upper surface of the metal members and pass upwards through the support frame, and the second magnetic steel members are arranged on the lower surface of the metal members and pass through downwards through the lower cover. The N poles of the first magnetic steel members and the second magnetic steel members are arranged opposed to each other. The magnetic plate of the present invention has strong magnetic properties and thus can firmly attracting cartridges and holding the magnetic plate itself firmly on other metal surface. The area that can storage cartridges are large. The magnetic plate of the invention has simple structure, simple installation and production assembly. The magnetic plate has a small thickness and high space utilization rate.

A magnetic wand is used for adjusting window blinds. The blinds include slats and a slat angle adjustment mechanism. The wand includes an upper housing portion and a handle portion. The upper housing portion has a connecting mechanism disposed on one end and a docking area on a second end. The connecting mechanism is adapted to connect the upper housing portion to the window blinds. A first magnetically attractive element is disposed within the docking area. The handle portion has an end shaped to fit within the docking area. The end includes a second magnetically attractive element. The second magnetically attractive element is adapted to releasably couple with the first magnetically attractive element through magnetic coupling, forming a magnetic joint. That magnetic joint is configured to prevent the handle portion from longitudinally rotating independently relative to the upper housing portion.

A magnetic apparatus (1) comprising a magnetizable surface (2) configured to anchor a one or more ferromagnetic elements in a removable manner and a plurality of magnetic poles (3), each provided with a free surface (4) thereof, the magnetizable surface (2) being at least partially defined by the free surfaces (4) of said plurality of magnetic poles (3) placed side by side; one part of said magnetic poles (3) has at least two measuring areas (5) on the free surface thereof, each measuring area (5) being associated with at least one sensor (6) adapted to detect a magnetic flux exiting from said area.

A magnetic device for magnetically coupling to a ferromagnetic body, comprises a housing having a central bore. A plurality of pole sectors arranged within an envelope of the central bore and forming a workpiece contact interface of the magnetic device, each of the plurality of pole sectors comprising a plurality of spaced-apart pole portions arranged at respective distances, wherein a recess of a plurality of recesses separates each pole portion of the plurality of pole portions, wherein a first sector forms a first pole of the magnetic device and a second sector forms a second pole of the magnetic device. A first permanent magnet. A second permanent being moveable relative to the first permanent magnet. And, an actuator operatively coupled to the at least one second permanent magnet to move the at least one second permanent magnet relative to the at least one first permanent magnet.

A device for holding in position a product to be processed includes a base connectable by magnetic interaction to a work surface of an apparatus for tumbling or polishing and comprising a first portion and a second portion movable along an operating direction mutually towards or away from a first and a second operating position. The device also includes a retaining support connected to the base and configured to hold in a stable position a product to be processed between a first and a second retaining element. Between the first and the second portion of the base an actuation member is interposed, configured to move the same portions between the first operating position and the second operating position. A method for holding in position a product to be processed is also disclosed.

Magnetic coupling devices are disclosed having magnetic field sensors. The magnetic coupling device may include a calibration module for calibrating the magnetic coupling devices.

A connection device connects a driving device and a feeding device and is for use in a scale or combination scale. A connection element has at least one magnet. A receiving device, which is located within the feeding device, includes at least one iron core. The receiving device includes a protrusion, where the receiving device meshes with the connection element in the mounted state for a simple, interlocking, and backlash-free self-centering connection.

An object stage and a hot pressing apparatus are disclosed. The object stage includes a base (1) and a support device (2) fixed on the base (1), wherein the support device (2) includes a plurality of detachable support sub-devices (21); the support device is configured to allow a printed circuit board (3) with at least one protruding structure (4) to be placed thereon, and no support sub-device (21) is disposed at a position on the support device (2) corresponding to the protruding structure (1). The object stage reduces manufacture cost, saves production time and improves production efficiency.
