A mounting adapter for rotatably mounting a tool holding body having first and second surfaces on at least one spider arm of a motor driven rotatable spider assembly of a surface processing apparatus, said mounting adapter comprising: bearing means supported by said second surface; a first aperture extending centrally through said first and second surfaces; a rubber flex pad having a second aperture in vertical registry with and beneath said first aperture; means supporting said rubber flex pad along its periphery and having a third aperture in vertical registry with and beneath said second aperture; an end plug within said third aperture for closing the second aperture, said end plug supporting said flex pad from beneath said third aperture; said rotatable hub of said bearing means including attachment means in the upper portion thereof for facilitating non rotatable attachment to a mounting means adapted for attachment to said spider arm.

The present disclosure provides for a reversible and adjustable stopper assembly comprised of an upper frame, L-bracket, connector portion and stopping member. The stopper can be configured to be secured to at least two main types of press brakes. The stopping portion of the stopper is also reversible, allowing for less sheet metal to be inserted into the press brake, if desired. The stopper assembly can be slid in a horizontal manner, relative to the press brake to preserve the measurement of the sheet metal from one end of the press brake to the other.

The present claims a decorating tool, comprising a working portion, a grip portion and a connecting portion. The working portion and the grip portion are connected to two ends of the connecting portion, respectively. The connecting portion is configured for controlling the grip portion to rotate towards or away from the working portion. The grip portion can be rotated to adjacent to a sidewall of the working portion, and not protrude from two ends of the working portion.

An apparatus for applying mortar to a wall or floor surface for accent tiles is disclosed. The apparatus has an elongated first piece comprising a top piece joined with a bottom piece having a plurality of slots that are attachable to a second piece and a third piece. Rulers are positioned on the edges of the pieces. To use, a thickness of accent tile is measured as well as a length or width of accent tile. The user adjusts the positioning of the second piece and the third piece accordingly. Once the components are fastened together, the user applies mortar to a gap between pieces of non-accent tile and scrapes off an amount of mortar that is not needed, leaving behind the correct, smoothed amount of mortar that will allow the measured thickness of the accent tile to fit in between the non-accent tile in an even and level manner.

A surface spatula has a frame provided on the surfaces of the gripping parts with a soft, convex covering (3) made of thermoplastic plastic, which is integrally bonded to the substrate on parts of the outer surfaces of the spatial structure of the frame, shaped in the form of a longitudinal profile (1), preferably made of hard engineering plastic, preferably from the group of plastomers, where the spatial structure of the profile (1) is a closed body, internally ribbed, with the same outline along its entire length, where the covering (3), also made in the form of surface elements (27), is present on the outer surfaces of the handgrip (2) and the connector (5), where in the frontal view of the outline of the profile (1) the manual handle (2) is located in the upper part and has a contour (15) similar to an ellipse and which in the lower part is connected with the outline of the connector (5), situated at the bottom part of the tool.

A tool for applying a binding agent and/or a filler is provided. The tool enables convenient and accurate application of the binding agent and/or the filler, such as adhesive or mortar for wall panels and grout between wall panels. The tool comprises a body including a front surface, a rear surface, and a plurality of edges circumferentially extending around the body, each of the plurality of edges defining a junction of the front surface and the rear surface. One of the plurality of edges comprises a plurality of teeth extending away from the body. The teeth may comprise a flat face. One of the plurality of edges may comprise a protrusion. One or more rounded corners may be circumferentially disposed around the body between two proximal edges.

An automated painting system that includes a robotic arm and a painting end effector coupled at a distal end of the robotic arm, with the painting end effector configured to apply paint to a target surface. The painting system can also include a computing device executing a computational planner that: generates instructions for driving the painting end effector and robotic arm to perform at least one painting task that includes applying paint, via the painting the end effector, to a plurality of drywall pieces, the generating based at least in part on obtained target surface data; and drives the end effector and robotic arm to perform the at least one painting task.

A joint compound application assembly for applying joint compound on drywall includes a rod that has a conduit integrated therein. The conduit is fluidly coupled to a source of joint compound thereby facilitating the joint compound to be urged through the conduit. A box is coupled to the rod and the box has a bottom end that is open into an interior of the box. A spray bar is fluidly coupled to the conduit and the spray bar is directed toward the bottom end of the box to spray the joint compound onto a wall or ceiling. A knife is coupled to the box to smooth the joint compound on the wall or ceiling.
