Clamp tool and method for manipulating a slide collar PTO yoke
A system for attaching a PTO yoke to a tractor PTO output shaft comprises gripping a shaft of the PTO yoke using a clamp tool, whereby the clamp tool maintains a slide collar of the PTO yoke in a retracted position with respect to the yoke shaft, such that the yoke shaft is exposed for attachment to the tractor PTO output shaft. The clamp tool may comprise pliers, including plier jaws and plier handles; and a flexible band coupled to the plier jaws.
Apparatus and method for automatic assembly of weather strip
Proposed are an apparatus and a method for automatic assembly of a weather strip, wherein both the work of fitting a weather strip (20) to a chassis flange (10) constituting a vehicle body and the work of quality inspection for inspecting the fitted state of the weather strip (20) are automated, thereby contributing to work efficiency improvement and quality enhancement.
Flexible dynamic seal installation tool
An installation tool for application of a flexible dynamic seal such as weatherstrip to an end flange of a vehicle. It includes a rotary drive source to rotate a double-sided cam (could be three-sided as well) that pushes on a spring-loaded block changing the rotation into a linear back and forth motion. This spring-loaded block is attached to a plastic pad that is applied to the seal to transfer the motion on the seal and mimics the operator pushing the seal to install.
Systems and methods for treating aneurysms
Treatment of aneurysms can be improved by delivering an occlusive member (e.g., an expandable braid) to an aneurysm sac in conjunction with an embolic element (e.g., coils, embolic material). A treatment system for such treatment can include an electrolytically corrodible core wire having a proximal portion, a distal portion, and a detachment zone between the proximal portion and the distal portion. An occlusive member having a proximal hub is coupled to the core wire distal portion. A conduit extends along at least a portion of the core wire. The conduit has a lumen configured to pass an embolic element therethrough.
SEAL APPLICATION APPARATUS WITH PRESSING ROLLER COMPRISING MULTIPLE ELEMENTS
An application apparatus for applying a seal profile to a body component serving to close a body opening comprises a roll-on head for applying the seal profile to a receiving surface of the body component and a cleaning unit intended for mechanical cleaning of the receiving surface and positioned at the front of the roll-on head with respect to the receiving surface of the body component, wherein the cleaning unit comprises a pressing roller. The pressing roller comprises a roller base element made of a first material extending over the width of the pressing roller. The pressing roller further comprises a roller center element made of a second material arranged centrally on the roller base element and having a smaller width than the roller base element. In addition, the pressing roller comprises a roller outer element made of a third material, wherein the roller outer element is arranged on the roller base element so as to surround the roller center element and is arranged on the roller center element. The third material has a lower hardness than the second material and the first material.
Seal removal jig, seal removal method, and seal portion
A seal removal jig is used for removing a seal portion from a casing of a rotary machine. The seal removal jig includes a jig body pushed up from below in a vertical direction by a jack, and a jig fixing portion that detachably fixes the jig body to an end surface of the seal portion. The jig body includes a jig contact portion that is contactable with an end surface of an upper half seal portion or a lower half seal portion in a circumferential direction about an axis of the rotary machine; and a jig protrusion protruding outward in a radial direction with respect to the jig contact portion and pushed up from below in the vertical direction by the jack. The ratio of a first distance to an outside diameter of the upper half seal portion or the lower half seal portion is 0.01 or more and 0.1 or less.
Insertion tool
An insertion tool may be utilized for placement of a seal into a groove of a component. The insertion tool may comprise a base and a seal lifting portion. The seal lifting portion may comprise a surface configured to selectably engage with a seal to move the seal between a lifted position and an unlifted position within an associated groove of a component. The surface of the seal lifting portion may be configured to continuously move the seal between the lifted position and unlifted position. The seal may have a first height h.sub.1 and a second height h.sub.2, wherein h.sub.2 may be less than h.sub.1. The seal may be stretched to h.sub.2 in the lifted position and returned to h.sub.1 in the unlifted positioned in the associated groove of the component.
Seal positioning tool
A tool and method for positioning a sealing member in an aircraft wing assembly by using first and second holes in a first component of the aircraft wing assembly and first and second holes in a second component of the aircraft wing assembly as positioning reference points, wherein a positional relationship of the first and second holes in the first component matches a positional relationship of the first and second holes in the second component.
Modular application apparatus and modular kit for constructing an application apparatus
The present disclosure relates to an application apparatus for applying a sealing profile to a bodywork part, comprising a roller head, which is designed to apply the sealing profile to a receiving surface of the bodywork part, and at least one further functional unit for performing a further station step, wherein the at least one further functional unit is respectively designed as a functional module from a set of functional modules.
