Rotary crimping tool assembly

A rotary crimping tool assembly includes a tool housing defining a crimping chamber, and one or more crimp wheels within the crimping chamber. The crimping chamber is configured to receive the portion of the structure in proximity to the crimp wheel(s). The crimp wheel(s) are configured to be pressed into and rotated relative to the portion of the structure to form one or more crimps in the portion of the structure.

RAILING SYSTEM
20180369894 · 2018-12-27 ·

A rail system. The rail system includes an upper rail member, a lower rail member and a plurality of balusters. The upper rail member, lower rail member and balusters secure together and to a support structure to form the rail system. The support structure may include columns, newels, walls and the like. The upper and lower rail members each include a cap that snaps onto a rail support. Fasteners may fasten the balusters directly to an upper rail support. Fasteners may further fasten the balusters directly to a lower cap.

JUNCTION METHOD FOR JOINING MEMBERS CONSTITUTING FRAME STRUCTURE ATTACHED TO AUTOMOBILE, AND FRAME STRUCTURE ATTACHED TO AUTOMOBILE

A side member (example of second member) having a hollow shape is inserted into holes formed in a cross member (example of first member) (member insertion step). The cross member and the side member are joined by caulking by expanding an insertion portion of the side member from the inside of the insertion portion (caulked junction step). The insertion portion of the side member is a portion inserted into the cross member.

METHOD FOR JOINING BUMPER MEMBERS AND BUMPER STRUCTURE

In a method for joining bumper members, a bumper reinforcement including a rear inclined wall provided with a hole, and a bumper stay in a hollow shape are prepared. The method for joining bumper members includes the steps of: inserting the bumper stay through the hole of the bumper reinforcement to pass through the rear inclined wall; inserting rubber into the bumper stay; and compressing the rubber in a direction of an axis L of the bumper stay to expand the rubber outward from inside to expand and deform at least a portion of the bumper stay inserted into the hole, thereby joining the bumper stay to the rear inclined wall by press-fitting.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MANUFACTURING A PIPE T-BRANCH
20240309981 · 2024-09-19 ·

The object of the invention is a method and a device for making a pipe T-branch by connecting the shaped end of a branch pipe with internal welding to the edges of a hole in a main pipe. The hole in the main pipe (T) and the arcs corresponding to the main pipe at the end of the branch pipe (P) are cut mechanically by removing one solid part from the hole and two (22) solid parts from the end of the branch pipe in a dry mechanical process, wherein the cleanliness of the joint areas remains suitable for welding. The shaped end of the branch pipe (P) is placed around the hole in the main pipe and the joint seam (21) between the pipes is welded by internal welding without the use of a welding filler. A suitable branching hole is made by punching tangentially from the side of the main pipe such that the tangent of the pipe, which is parallel to the direction of movement of the punch tool, is located inside the punch tool (1).

Bead forming method and structural member

A bead forming method includes the steps of preparing a bumper stay having a partition wall that partitions an internal space and extends in a longitudinal direction, an elastic body that can be inserted into the bumper stay, and a pusher that presses the elastic body; inserting the elastic body into the bumper stay and arranging the elastic body in the bumper stay so as not to come into contact with the partition wall; and forming a buckling bead by compressing the elastic body in the longitudinal direction of the bumper stay by the pusher to expand the elastic body outward in a radial direction without coming into contact with the partition wall, thereby bulging a part of an outer wall of the bumper stay outward in the radial direction without deforming the partition wall.

[SUMMARY]

The present invention is capable of manufacturing an integrated tee type pipe by forming a molding pipe part, with pulling a periphery of a molding hole and protruding it to the outward direction through a pressing device and a molding device, while forming a molding hole of a predetermined shape on an upper side of a straight pipe; and manufacturing a tee type pipe that ensures robustness, productivity, and workability, accordingly.

Separator device

A separator device for removing particles from suspension in a liquid includes a housing having first and second chambers with apertures for ingress and egress of liquid into the first chamber. Means are provided for setting up a swirl of liquid within the first chamber. Apertures enable flow of liquid between the first chamber and the second chamber. Means are also provided for setting up a swirl of liquid within the second chamber. The swirl in the second chamber is in substantially the opposite direction to the swirl in the first chamber, and there is no substantial flow in the second chamber which is in the same direction as the swirl in the first chamber.

Separator device

A separator device 10 for removing particles from suspension in a fluid including a housing 12, having first and second apertures 96 for ingress and egress of fluid into and out of the housing 12; a first separator chamber 38 disposed at one end of the housing; a second separator chamber 40 disposed at the other end of the housing, and a central chamber disposed between the first and second separator chambers 38, 40, the first and second separator chambers 38, 40 being apertured for ingress and egress of fluid from the central chamber and each containing obstruction means to slow the flow of fluid within the chamber.
