Tool system for installation/removal of interference fit components
A tool system to install an interference fit component within a bore of a component, includes a guide bushing that at least partially fits within a bore of a component. A drive screw is of a length to extend through the guide bushing and the bore. A threaded insert is receivable at least partially within the bore, the threaded insert receivable at least partially within the interference fit component.
Shaft driving tool
A tool for driving a shaft within an apertured member, the tool incorporating a segmented sleeve having upper, lower, and medial segments, each segment having upper and lower ends, a hollow bore of the lower segment being helically threaded; a shaft biasing screw mounted within the lower segment's hollow bore, upper and lower joints, the upper joint connecting the upper end of the screw with the upper segment, and the lower joint connecting the medial segment with the lower segment; a first gear attached to the upper segment; a support frame attached to the medial segment; a second gear mounted rotatably upon the support frame, the second gear being positioned for rotating the first gear; a rotary power input stem fixedly attached to the second gear; and a clamp or hook arms adapted for positioning the apertured member beneath the screw's shaft biasing lower end.
Fastener pin removal tool
Examples provide a method and apparatus for fastener pin removal. A fastener pin removal tool includes a tool body having a workpiece interface surface, a threaded hole and opposing side edges. A fitting is coupled to the end of the threaded screw that is proximate the workpiece interface surface. The fitting includes a keyhole-slot configured to receive the head of a pin. The keyhole-slot defines a set of spaced-apart jaws configured to engage the head of the pin that is received within the keyhole-slot. A rotational end-piece is coupled to the threaded screw and rotates to cause the fitting and the set of spaced-apart jaws to pull the head of the pin received within the keyhole-slot. As the rotational end-piece pulls the pin head, the pin is removed from a workpiece.
Rotating machine coupling hub pulling device
An assembly for separating a coupling hub from a shaft of a rotating machine includes a support frame sub-assembly that structurally supports the assembly and the coupling hub. A vertical adjustment sub-assembly is structurally supported by the support frame sub-assembly. The vertical adjustment sub-assembly adjusts the elevation of a puller sub-assembly from the surface of the Earth. The puller sub-assembly couples to the coupling hub and separates the coupling hub from the shaft.
END CAP REMOVAL DEVICE FOR A CENTRAL WATER PLANT
A cap removal device is adapted to remove end caps from water pump devices. The cap removal device has a cap remover that is adapted to be secured to the end caps of pressure vessels. The cap removal device further has a honed tube that is adapted to stabilize the cap removal device and the end cap during removal of the end cap thereby preventing cross-threading. The cap removal device also has a puller handle that is adapted to make removal of the end cap more efficient.
TOOL SYSTEM FOR INSTALLATION/REMOVAL OF INTERFERENCE FIT COMPONENTS
A tool system to install an interference fit component within a bore of a component, includes a guide bushing that at least partially fits within a bore of a component. A drive screw is of a length to extend through the guide bushing and the bore. A threaded insert is receivable at least partially within the bore, the threaded insert receivable at least partially within the interference fit component.
Wedge anchor removal device
A wedge anchor removal device. The wedge anchor removal device has an elongated cylindrical body. The elongated cylindrical body includes a bore centrally defined therein. The bore is sized to receive a rod. The rod has a first end disposed opposite a second end. The first end has a threaded interface. The threaded interface is configured to engage an anchor bolt. A nut is disposed on the second end of the rod.
Installation tool assembly, a tooling assembly for a workpiece, and a method
An installation tool assembly includes a workpiece and a tool. The workpiece includes a first wall having an aperture and a second wall spaced from the first wall relative to a first axis to present an access point therebetween. The installation tool assembly includes a fastener disposed in the aperture of the first wall at an initial position. The fastener includes a hole and a fastener locking feature disposed inside the hole. The tool includes a tool locking feature that is configured to engage the fastener locking feature to secure together the fastener and the tool in the initial position. The tool is operable to pull the fastener farther through the aperture into an interference fit with the first wall in an installed position. A tooling assembly includes the tool and the fastener. A method of installing the fastener to the workpiece uses the tool.
Motorcycle base valve press and related methods
Implementations of motorcycle base valve presses may include: a press including a base coupled to a first end of a body, a head coupled to a second end of the body, a handle coupled to a side of the head, and a press ram coupled through the head. The motorcycle base valve press may also include an end cap coupled with a first end of the press ram; and a motorcycle fork receiver coupled to the base of the press, the motorcycle fork receiver configured to receive a damper assembly of a motorcycle fork. The end cap may be configured to contact the base valve through the press ram and allow the base valve to turn.
Arm Removal System
An arm removal system for removing an arm. The system includes an anvil, and a removal assembly with at least two jackscrews. The arm has an extension radially extending from the arm and an arm outer surface. The arm is disposed within a wedge shaped collet that is disposed within a socket in an aircraft with an aircraft outer surface. The removal assembly includes an extension engaging surface and threaded jackscrew holes for accepting the jackscrews, such that when the jackscrews are tightened within the jackscrew holes, the jackscrews apply force on the anvil and the aircraft outer surface in the direction away from the removal assembly such that the arm is eventually removed entirely from the aircraft.
