A cable protector clamp assembly that includes a clamp body configured to hold and align a cable along a pipe, the clamp body including a cable holder; and a stop collar configured to fix a position of the clamp body adjacent to a radially protruding element around the pipe and to prevent the clamp body from rotating around the pipe.

CARRYING RACK CONNECTING DEVICE
20230038546 · 2023-02-09 ·

A carrying rack connecting device is provided, including: an insertion assembly, configured to be connected with a hitch; an urging mechanism, including a pin, a driving member and at least one urging member, the pin configured to pin the insertion assembly and the hitch, the driving member being connected to the insertion assembly and movable between a release position and an urging position, the driving member including an urging portion, the at least one urging member being swingably connected to the insertion assembly and including an urged portion, the urged portion and the urging portion partially overlapping, wherein when the driving member moves from the release position toward the urging position, the urging portion urges the urged portion to move the at least one urging member to swing outward so that the at least one urging member is urgingly abutted against the hitch.

Torque tube coupler

A first embodiment of a torque tube coupler may include an outer body that includes a first abutting surface and a second abutting surface adjacent to the first abutting surface. Set screws may be inserted into one or more channels of the first abutting surface. Tightening the set screws may force the abutting surfaces away from each other and the outer body to press against an inner surface of a torque tube. Another embodiment of the torque tube coupler may include a central ring sized based on a size of a torque tube. The torque tube coupler may also include a set of fingers that extend away from a first side of the central ring and are shaped to flex radially outward. The torque tube coupler may include a core disposed within the set of fingers that, when drawn towards the central ring, causes the fingers to flex radially outwards.

ADJUSTABLE SHORING BEAM AND HOOK ASSEMBLY
20230001844 · 2023-01-05 ·

Disclosed herein is an adjustable shoring beam having a hook assembly configured to mate with E-track mating features. The adjustable shoring beam can be adjusted over a predetermined length range by adjusting the tube assembly and the rod assembly. In some embodiments, the extension length is fixed using a fixing clamp coupled to the tube assembly and the rod assembly. A connecting clamp and bracket may be used to couple a first adjustable shoring beam to a second adjustable shoring beam.

Silicon core wire

In the silicon core wire according to a first aspect of the present invention, a male thread part formed at one end of a first thin silicon rod and a female thread part formed at one end of a second thin silicon rod may be screwed together and fastened. In the silicon core wire according to a second aspect of the present invention, a thread part formed at one end of a first thin silicon rod and a thread part formed at one end of a second thin silicon rod may be screwed together and fastened via an adapter with thread parts formed at both ends.

ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE HAVING A CONNECTION MEMBER WITH MULTIPLE ATTACHMENT FEATURES
20230235766 · 2023-07-27 ·

The present aspects include an adhesive and mechanically bonded adapter or node. The adapter or node comprises a connection member, including: an outer wall extending in a first direction from a first proximal end to a first distal end; an inner wall extending within the outer wall, in the first direction, from a second proximal end to a second distal end; and a base wall extending from an inner surface of the outer wall to an outer surface of the inner wall between the first proximal end and the second proximal end; and wherein the outer wall, the inner wall, and the base wall define a space having a distance between the outer wall and the inner wall that varies in the first direction, wherein the space is configured to fixedly position an end portion of a tube inserted into the space such that the end portion is fixed to the inner surface of the outer wall and the outer surface of the inner wall.

INSERT FOR A POWER TOOL HOUSING

Inserts disposed in a housing of a pneumatically or hydraulically powered tool having a motor adapted to rotate a drive lug in either of first and second rotational directions. The insert is composed of a material resistive to creep and/or stress relaxation. The insert contacts fasteners applying a clamping force to the tool and remove the housing from the load path of the clamping force, thereby reducing the possibility of fluid leaks.

TRIPOD FOR SHOOTING EQUIPMENT
20230020970 · 2023-01-19 ·

This invention relates to a tripod for shooting equipment that will find application both in the shooting industry and for personal purposes, and in particular for the installation of video or photographic equipment, a camera or other optical instrument. The tripod (1) has three adjacent telescopic legs (3) with identical locking mechanisms connected to the handle (5) located above the central support element (2). The handle (5) actuates the locking mechanisms simultaneously and independently of one another, whereby the legs (3) can be telescopically adjusted from the free state to the locked position in the desired position when unfolding or folding the tripod (1). Locking mechanisms provide stability when loading the tripod (1). The telescopic legs (3) of the tripod (1) are pivotally connected to the central support element (2), so the different angles of the legs (3) do not affect the effective operation of the locking mechanisms.
