A support system which allows for the use and mounting of a smart phone, or similar electronic device, in a variety of ways. The support system may be adapted to function as a hand grip while supporting the smart phone during image acquisition, or while watching images on the smart phone. In another configuration, the support system may be adapted to attach to the user's belt. In another configuration, the support system may function as a support stand. In another configuration, the support system may be mounted on a tripod. The support system may include a kit of parts which allow for the modification of support accessories to allow for different configurations. The support system may include a removable shutter which may actuate the camera functions via wireless communication.

In combination with a pipe (213), a clamp (201) is provided which supports the pipe in a fixed position with respect to a substrate. The clamp includes first (203) and second (205) bands, wherein each of the first and second bands has an arcuate portion (209) and first and second terminal portions (211), and wherein the arcuate portions of the first and second bands are disposed in opposing relation around the surface of the pipe. A first fastener (207) extends through the first terminal portions of the first and second bands, and a second fastener extends through the second terminal portions of the first and second bands. A thermal insulator (233) is disposed between the first fastener and the first terminal portions of the first and second bands, and between the second fastener and the second terminal portions of the first and second bands.

Various apparatuses to attach a first medical device to a second medical device are described that allow the physician to grasp only a single device while the other device remains securely attached to the one being grasped. The apparatuses, once they are attached to the first medical device, are designed to be easily and quickly attached and detached to a second medical device, normally only requiring the use of one hand. Furthermore, the apparatuses oftentimes include a base that can easily couple and decouple from the portion that is attached to the second medical device so that if the need arises to separately use the second medical device, it can be decoupled from the first medical device without completely removing the apparatus from the second medical device.

A dual clamping device.

A fitting for engaging a brace member can include a fitting body defining a body opening extending laterally therethrough, the fitting body further defining a top contact surface and a bottom contact surface; a first jaw connected to the fitting body at a proximal first jaw end, the first jaw oriented perpendicular to the body opening; a second jaw connected to the fitting body at a proximal second jaw end, a the second jaw perpendicular to the body opening and disposed between the top contact surface and the bottom contact surface, wherein the top contact surface extends between the proximal first jaw end and the proximal second jaw end; and a slot defined between the first jaw and the second jaw.

Described are clamps useful for temporarily holding a slider of a hard disk drive in a test socket for dynamic electrical testing of the slider, as well as related assemblies that include the test socket, a head-gimbal-assembly, a testing assembly, and related methods of use.
