An anchor platform assembly for anchoring an object to a raised, generally flat roof-like structure, has an anchor baseplate having a top surface and a bottom surface, and an internally threaded blindbore extending at least partially from the top surface generally towards the bottom surface and fasteners for fastening an object to the anchor baseplate via its blindbore and for fastening the anchor baseplate to a top surface of a roof-like structure. The assembly is especially intended for supporting, e.g., glass railings on balconies terraces and flat roofs and for mounted solar panels on both flat and pitched roofs which provides strength and affords watertight performance.

A connecting rod coupling device for attaching a component to an aircraft fuselage and/or stiffening the fuselage has a first coupler, and a second coupler couplable to the first coupler. The first coupler has an elongate body with a first channel on a lateral surface along a first longitudinal axis. The second coupler has a hollow-cylindrical portion, which, on an inner face along a second longitudinal axis, has a second channel complementing the first channel. The hollow-cylindrical portion has a radial cutout through which the elongate body is radially insertable into the second channel from outside the hollow-cylindrical portion. The second coupler has a closure body, which closes the radial cutout, and can be positioned removably in the cutout to complete the second channel on a radially internal face. The second coupler also has an element, pushable onto the hollow-cylindrical portion to secure the closure body on the hollow-cylindrical portion.

A journal bearing for centering a misaligned pin is disclosed. The journal bearing includes an outer bushing defining an outer bore. The outer bore is offset with respect to an axis of rotation of the journal bearing by a misalignment distance. The misalignment distance represents a distance between the axis of rotation of the journal bearing and a center axis of the misaligned pin. The journal bearing further includes an inner bushing defining an inner bore. The inner bore is offset with respect to the axis of rotation of the journal bearing by the misalignment distance. The inner bushing is seated within the outer bore of the outer bushing. The inner bushing and the outer bushing are both configured to rotate relative to one another to center an inner periphery of the inner bushing around the misaligned pin.

A cable tray including a pair of generally parallel spaced-apart side rails, each side rail defining a plurality of openings. Rungs extend between the rails at intervals spaced along the rails. Each rung includes at least two side walls. Each rung has opposite open ends generally aligned with respective openings in the side rails. End portions of each rung define a transverse opening. A plurality of snap plug fasteners fastens the rungs to the side rails. Each snap plug fastener includes a main body abutting an outboard surface of one of the side rails. A projection extends through one of the openings in the side rail and into one of the open ends of one of the rungs. The projection includes a barb received in one of the transverse openings in the rung.

A coupling for connecting a circuit board to a mount with a fastener. The mount may be connected to a component. The fastener includes a first snap-fit connection formation for establishing a snap-fit connection with a second snap-fit connection formation provided on the mount. When connected, the fastener clamps the circuit board against the mount. The fastener further includes a first engagement formation configured to engage with a second engagement formation on the mount for bracing the snap-fit connection.

An anchor platform assembly for anchoring an object to a raised, generally flat roof-like structure, has an anchor baseplate having a top surface and a bottom surface, and an internally threaded blindbore extending at least partially from the top surface generally towards the bottom surface and fasteners for fastening an object to the anchor baseplate via its blindbore, and for fastening the anchor baseplate to a top surface of a roof-like structure. The assembly is especially intended for supporting, e.g., glass railings on balconies, terraces and flat roofs and for mounted solar panels on both flat and pitched roofs which provides strength and affords watertight performance.

A quick release connecting assembly is provided. The quick release connecting assembly includes a first connector and a second connector, wherein the first connector includes an upper fixed plate, a middle portion of the upper fixed plate is connected to a connecting column, and a clamping slot is formed in a middle portion of the connecting column; and the second connector includes a lower fixed plate, a middle portion of the lower fixed plate is connected to a connecting pipe matched with the connecting column, a side surface of the connecting pipe is connected to a side pipe communicating with the connecting pipe, and a bolt column is arranged in the side pipe. The connecting column of the first connector and the bolt column of the second connector are clamped, such that the quick release connecting assembly is simple in integral structure and convenient to disassemble and assemble.

A food processing apparatus has a frame assembly in which frame members are joined using adhesive, such as an epoxy. The frame members are comprised of stainless steel and the adhesive is applied so that exterior surfaces of the stainless steel frame members are free of any adhesive residue. Adhesive may be used to join exterior frame members as well as interior frame members, such as those used to support mechanical components of the processing apparatus.

A holder is provided for holding an electrical component on a circuit board having a lead hole. The holder includes a body having a base for holding the electrical component and a connection member for mounting the body to the circuit board. The base includes a lead opening that is configured to hold a solder lead of the electrical component therein. The connection member extends from the base and is configured to mechanically connect to the circuit board such that the base holds an end of the solder lead of the electrical component within the lead hole of the circuit board.

A connection between a wall stud, channel-shaped bridging member and connector that resists torsional forces, the connector being suited to interlock with the interior of the bridging member channel and to be fastened to the bridging member outside the channel, depending on the orientation of the bridging member.
