Pipeline inspection device
A pipeline inspection device including a stand, a drum rotatably supported by the stand, the drum including an opening in a front wall of the drum, a cable disposed at least partially within the drum, the cable including a camera disposed on a distal end of the cable, the camera and the cable configured to be directed into a conduit, a hub including a body at least partially insertable into the opening of the drum, the hub being electrically coupled to the cable when inserted into the opening, a wireless communication module housed within the hub, and a battery supported by the hub, the battery and the hub being removable from the drum as a single unit.
PIPELINE INSPECTION DEVICE
A hub for use with a pipeline inspection device including a reel and a cable disposed at least partially within the reel, the cable including a camera. The the hub includes a body configured to be selectively coupled to the reel, a mating member positioned on the body, where the mating member is configured to removably secure the body to the reel, a wireless communication module positioned within the body, where the wireless communication module is configured to create a wireless connection between the hub and a remote device including a display, a battery receptacle on the body, and a battery removably coupled to the battery receptacle, the battery configured to provide power to the camera.
DRAIN CLEANING DEVICE
A drain cleaning device includes a frame and a drum assembly supported by the frame. The drum assembly includes an inner drum, an outer drum, and a space defined therebetween. The drum assembly is configured to rotate about an axis of rotation. The drain cleaning device also includes a motor supported by the drum assembly. The motor includes an output shaft. The drain cleaning device further includes a flexible cable stored within the space. The flexible cable defines a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first end is coupled to the output shaft to receive torque from the motor. The drum cleaning device also includes a battery receptacle supported by the drum assembly. The battery receptacle is configured to receive a battery pack that supplies power to the motor.
CRANE AND CABLE DRUM UNIT FOR SAME
A crane (2), more particularly a mobile fast-erecting crane, having at least one supply connection to which a supply line (16), more particularly a power cable, can be connected, wherein the supply line can be wound on a cable drum (15), which can be mounted on a drum mount (10) on the crane, with the cable drum being mounted to rotate on a drum support frame (18), which has running gear (18) for moving the cable drum over the ground and which has releasable mounting means, shaped to match the drum mount of the crane, for separably mounting the drum support frame on the drum mount of the crane. The invention further relates to a cable drum unit for winding a supply line (16) of a crane (2).
FEEDER EXCHANGING CARRIAGE
A feeder exchanging carriage includes a reel holder which holds a reel on which a carrier tape which stores electronic components is wound, a feeder holder which holds a tape feeder which performs a feeding operation of the carrier tape, and a base unit which is provided with a pair of front wheels and a pair of rear wheels, and a telescopic unit (a front base and a rear base) which expands and contracts an interval between the pair of front wheels and the pair of rear wheels. In a state where the feeder exchanging carriage is mounted to an electronic component mounter, the interval between the front and rear wheels is contracted by the telescopic unit, and in a state where the feeder exchanging carriage is not mounted to an electronic component mounter, the interval between the front and rear wheels is expanded by the telescopic unit.
Rotatable Cable Reel
A cable reel of the present disclosure can include two flanges and a central drum being independently rotatable from one another. The drum, which can be configured to receive a cable, can be mounted on an axle. The two flanges can be rotationally mounted on the axle at opposing distal ends of the axle. Bearings in the flanges can allow for a full rotation of the flanges about the axle.
METHOD FOR STOCKING BATTERY SEPARATOR ROLL, METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME, METHOD FOR CARRYING SAME, AND CARRIER FOR SAME
A wagon (90b) Includes a plurality of horizontal support bars (91f). A separator roll (12b) is stocked while the horizontal support bar is inserted into a core of the separator roll (12b) around which core a separator is rolled. This can prevent deformation and roll misalignment of the stocked separator roll.
Pressure washer with hose reel and motor pump assembly
A pressure assisted washer or pressure washer with hose reel and motor pump assembly. The hose reel defines a bore in which a motor pump assembly is disposed. The hose reel comprises a cylinder having an aperture through which pressurized fluid can be accessed through a coupling in fluid communication with a pump. The pump has a rotating collar.
Reel adapter
An adapter for readily changing out and mounting cable reels having a central opening in a transport device, such as a dolly, includes a pair of male portions, each having a body having a projection extending therefrom. The projections have at least one high spot. A pair of female portions are configured for mating with the male portions and have at least one recess for receiving the male portions' projections. A pair of fasteners secure the respective male and female portions to each other. An axle extends between the male or female portions, through the reel central opening and the male or female portions are positioned on ends of the axle. The reel with the axle and the male or female portions is positioned in the reel trolley, with the male or female portions mated with the others of the male or female portions and the fasteners are installed between the respective male and female portions to secure the reel in the trolley.
Inversion unit with expandable carrying handles and removable wheelbase
An inversion unit assembly is provided that is releasably connected to a wheelbase such that the inversion unit can be quickly removed from the wheelbase and carried separately from the inversion unit. The assembly includes a lining drum having a cylindrical body having an open end and a viewing opening. The lining drum includes two inlets for compressed air and an outlet for liner. The lining drum also includes a rotatable wheel secured to an internal shaft for which the liner can be released from the drum in a controllable fashion. The assembly also includes a wheelbase that can be separated from the inversion lining drum wherein the wheelbase includes a plurality of locking mechanisms and wheels.
