An outer component and an annular collar can be formed of materials having a Rockwell R hardness of at least 120. The outer component can have a recess, including an outer component mating wall. The annular collar can include an annular collar mating wall, including at least three protrusions. A recess can surround each protrusion so that an overall protrusion height between a base of the protrusion and a distal end thereof is greater than a protruding distance between an outer diameter of a cylindrical outer surface of the annular collar mating wall and the distal end of the protrusion. The number and configuration of the protrusions can be designed to provide a press-fit insertion force of 50 Newtons or less, and to provide a friction retention force sufficient to retain the annular collar within the recess under its own weight, throughout relevant tolerance ranges for the mating walls.

Organizational systems and associated components and methods for garages, sheds, basements or other spaces that have exposed wall or ceiling elongated members are provided. One such component includes a bracket having a first wall, a second wall facing the first wall and spaced apart from the first wall, and a third wall interconnecting the first and second walls. The first, second and third walls cooperatively define a channel for receiving the elongated member. The bracket includes an interface for releasable attachment of a storage component to the bracket. A clamp foot is movably coupled to the first wall. The clamp foot is translatable between an engaged position and a released position to respectively engage and release the elongated member received in the channel.

A track shoe includes a ground engaging surface, and a track link engaging surface. A hole extends through the shoe from the ground engaging surface to the track link engaging surface. The ground engaging surface includes a first region disposed adjacent the hole, and a second region extending from the first region away from the hole having a different surface roughness than the first surface roughness.

The present invention relates to a tensioning bracket (1) for tensioning at least one perforated band (6) defining a longitudinal band axis (15), the bracket comprising at least one bracket element (2) having a thickness and comprising a first body section (3) defining a first longitudinal body axis, a first body width, and the first body section comprising a number of projecting pins (11) arranged to receive the perforations (7) of the band, the projecting pins identifying a pin side and an opposing non-pin side of the bracket element, and a second body section (4) defining a second longitudinal body axis, a second body width comprising a number of holes (12) arranged in the same pattern as the projecting pins of the first body section, and the bracket element further comprising an attachment section (8) for attaching means for pulling and thereby tensioning the perforated band, wherein the first and second body sections are connected to each other via a common section (5) made of the same piece of material as the first and second body section and wherein the bracket element is configured so that when bending the element along a bending line in the common section the pins of the first section are received in holes of the second body section.

An anti-theft system for cosmetic products. The anti-theft system includes a fixture adapted to receive cosmetic products, and an anti-theft apparatus coupled to the fixture. The anti-theft apparatus includes a base and at least one finger extending from the base. The at least one finger is adapted to either contact or be disposed adjacent to at least one cosmetic product disposed within the fixture. So configured, the at least one finger is adapted to secure the at least one cosmetic product to the fixture.

A phone mount for an exercise machine includes a holder including a first side and a second side located opposite to the first side, and a room is defined in the first side for accommodating an electronic device. A clamp unit includes a connection section which has a first hole to which the second side of the holder is pivotably connected. The holder is pivotable relative to the handle of the exercise machine to arrange the electronic device at a desired position.

The present invention provides an improved locking mechanism for securely connecting modular or detachable components. The locking mechanism includes a male and female portion associated with, respectively, a first and second modular component, the male portion having a slit defining a first and second finger, the locking mechanism having a spreading means provided by a pressure bolt mechanism including a pressure bolt, wherein the pressure bolt is configured to, when turned by up to substantially 1 revolution, move the first and second fingers from a closed position wherein the first and second fingers are substantially parallel to one another, to a spread position wherein the first and second fingers abut an interior surface of the female portion, thereby connecting the first and second modular component.

A beam clamp for attachment to a flange of a structural building member and from which to support or brace a service component. The beam clamp has a clamp body, and a set screw. The clamp body includes a first jaw section with at least one mounting through hole, a second jaw section, a joining section that interconnects the first and second jaw sections, and a transverse opening that is to receive the flange. A contact surface on the second jaw section is formed with surface irregularities providing a roughness that enhances engagement of the contact surface with the flange. In use of the beam clamp, the contact surface is in contact with the flange of the structural member, the set screw is installed in the mounting through hole, and the flange is secured within transverse opening between the tip of the set screw and the contact surface.

A portable, quick-release shooting stabilization assist clamp designed for quick and easy, single-handed attachment and detachment on to a shooting rail or similar solid object. Once attached to an object, the clamp supports a firearm fore-stock, forend, frame, stock, or barrel allowing the user a steadier aim for more accurate shot placement. The clamp provides the capacity of a rapid attachment and detachment by using a spring clamp design. In its preferred embodiment, the clamp provides a rest with two angled prongs, above the pivot of the spring clamp, to help to easily place and retain the gun on the clamp. In alternative embodiments, multiple rests are provided as well as movable, pivoting rests. In addition to assisting shooters and hunters, the clamp could also be used to stabilize a camera, telescope, small video camera, or other device that is enhanced by stabilization.

A furniture clip to attach to the ends of a webbing strap in a system of webbing for an article of furniture. The clip is provided with prongs to be inserted into a groove provided on the framework of the article of furniture. The clip is further provided with teeth to retain the strap, wherein the strap is inserted into the clip and a user clamps the clip onto the strap using a pair of pliers or a vice. When clamped onto a strap, the prongs of the clip protrude at a 45-degree or 90-degree angle. The angle may be modified to accommodate furniture which requires the prongs to protrude at angles other than 45 or 90 degrees.
