BOLT EXTRACTOR STRUCTURE
A bolt extractor structure includes: a main body, including a base plate, first wall, and second wall, both sides of the base plate vertically combined with the first wall and second wall, the first wall and second wall respectively provided with an opposite first shaft hole, each of the shaft holes provided with a first shaft, the first wall and second wall respectively having a first recess and second recess, and the first recess provided with an abutting element; and a hook body, one end thereof having a through hole, the first shaft passed through the through hole, another end of the hook body having a hooking portion.
Joint press
A ball joint press for installation/removal of ball joints or bushings into/from suspension components of vehicles. In general, the press includes first and second frame portions, a spine/shaft coupling the first and second frame portions together, and actuators coupled to one of the first and second frame portions. The actuators are sized and spaced such that combined forces of the actuators minimize a bending moment (and bending stress) about the shaft. The actuators may also share a feed line that provides for equal pressure across both actuators. This reduces an axis of bending of the shaft, and causes the first and second frame portions to remain substantially parallel and the force in line with an axis of motion to install or remove the ball joint.
Rail bond tool
A rail bond tool for installation and removal of a rail bond to and from a web of a track rail having: a socket adapted to removably and matingly fit about a rail bond head and a rail bond terminal of the rail bond, the socket interior having: an upper cylindrical wall portion, a lower cylindrical wall having a larger diameter than the upper cylindrical wall portion, and an intermediate frustoconical wall portion, an opening at a distal end of the socket adjacent the rail bond tool, the upper cylindrical wall portion, the intermediate frustoconical wall portion, and the lower cylindrical wall adapted to removably and matingly receive the rail bond head, a socket exterior wall, and a slot extending from the opening through the lower cylindrical wall and the intermediate frustoconical wall to the socket exterior wall portion, the slot adapted to removably receive the rail bond terminal.

Brake piston-pushing tool
The brake piston pushing tool is a mechanical device. The brake piston pushing tool comprises a worm drive and a brake mechanism. The brake mechanism is a mechanical device used to slow and stop the motion of a vehicle. The brake mechanism is a well-known and documented device. The brake mechanism further comprises a caliper housing, a piston, and an anvil. The anvil attaches to the caliper housing such that a space is formed between the caliper housing and the anvil. The piston installs in the caliper housing such that the piston slides into and out of the space formed between the caliper housing and the anvil. The worm drive is a mechanical device that pushes the piston into the caliper during maintenance activities on the brake mechanism.
Filter retaining plug and tool
A plug for retaining a filter screen in a fluid port of a servovalve, the plug comprises an annular body. The annular body comprises opposed first and second axial annular end surfaces. A radially inner surface extends between the first and second axial annular end surfaces and a radially outer surface extends between the first and second axial annular end surfaces. At least one recess is formed in the radially inner surface for receiving a tool for removing the plug from the port. A plurality of slots is formed in the first axial annular end surface and extends into the at least one recess for providing access for the tool to the at least one recess.
TOOL FOR INSTALLATION AND/OR REMOVAL OF A PITOT TUBE COVER
The present invention is directed to a tool for handling pitot tube covers, which are configured in a general cylindrical shape. This tool includes a threaded post configured to receive an external extension. The bottom of the tool is constituted by two parallel support arms with a slot therebetween.

Reheat stop valve support yoke extraction device
A device to extract a support yoke from a reheat stop valve of a steam turbine is provided. The device includes a hydraulic cylinder for applying a pushing force to the support yoke, an attachment weldment for attaching the hydraulic cylinder to the reheat stop valve casing, and a conical cylinder coupled to the hydraulic cylinder and configured to evenly impart the pushing force to the support yoke from within the reheat stop valve in order to separate the reheat stop valve from the support yoke. A method to extract a support yoke from a reheat stop valve of a steam turbine is also provided.
METHOD OF MANUFACTURING BALL JOINT WITH A THREADED DOMED COVER PLATE
A method of manufacturing a vehicle suspension component includes inserting a cover body into an aperture of a housing, the cover body being disposed about a central axis concentric with the aperture of the housing, the cover body having a convex side and a concave side and an outer perimeter disposed about the central axis, the cover body defining a threaded bore concentric with the central axis, and deforming the cover body into retaining engagement with the housing by pressing against the convex side until the cover body is at least partial deformed and the outer perimeter is expanded compared to a pre-deformed state of the cover body.
