FASTENER SIZE MEASUREMENT TOOL
Systems, devices, and methods are provided for quickly and accurately measuring fastener sizes as disclosed.
System and method for measuring the inside diameter of a pipe
A system and method for measuring an inside diameter of a pipe to determine if it exceeds a predetermined value using a plurality of fingers operatively connected to a spring. When in a fully extended position, the distance between opposite fingers is the predetermined value. The fingers are pivotable between a starting position, through the fully extended position, and to a failing position. In the starting position, an outer end of each finger engages an inside surface of the pipe to compress the spring. If the diameter exceeds the predetermined value as the system moves through the pipe, the pipe inside surface will no longer engage the fingers, which releases the spring causing the fingers to pivot to the failing position, where they remain until the system is removed from the pipe and manually reset.

Modular nut cleaning plant
A modular nut cleaning plant comprises a nut sizer and a stick remover mounted to the nut sizer. A vacuum unit is mounted to the stick remover. A nut product stream will pass on the stick remover through the vacuum unit which will vacuum light debris from the nut product stream. The nut product stream moves on a chain on the stick remover. Large debris and sticks that do not fall through openings in the chain will pass into a debris conveyor. Nuts and debris that fall through the openings in the chain will be delivered to the nut sizer. The nut sizer will rotate and tumble nuts and debris in the nut product stream. Nuts of an undesirable size and debris will pass into a debris conveyor. Nuts of a desired size will pass through the nut sizer into a chute or other conveyance to be delivered to further nut processing apparatus.

Cable bend radius gauge
A tool for bending cable comprising a web forming a base having an upper surface, a lower surface, first edge, second edge, a first area of the base defining a bend member portion and a second area of the base defining a hand hold portion. The tool further comprising a set of wire gauge measuring intervals is integral with the first edge in the second area. The tool further comprising a set of bend members is arranged in a raised diminishing hierarchy on the upper surface in the first area, forming a cable bend radius gauge.

MEASUREMENT DEVICE
An anthropometric measurement device for measuring anatomical features includes: a sheet having a width and a length; a plurality of incisions extending from an edge of the sheet, each of the plurality of incisions spaced apart a distance so as to define a plurality of slats between the incisions. The slats are configured to be displaced in a direction normal to the plane of the sheet and held in position when the edge of the sheet is pressed over the anatomical feature, so as to indicate a dimension of the feature.
CONNECTION VERIFICATION TOOL
A connection verification tool for verifying a secure connection between two fluid handling components of a fluid handling system. A connection verification tool can include a gauge portion sized sized to be placed over a first fluid handling component connected to a second fluid handling component to verify a secure connection between the two components. If the first fluid handling component is not securely connected to the second fluid handling component such that additional torque may be required to complete the connection between the two components, the gauge portion of the connection verification tool will not fit over the first component coupled to the second component.
Apparatus and methods for gauging parts
Inspection apparatus and methods for inspecting parts include a drum including a chamber for receiving parts to be inspected and at least one screen having at least one gauge formed therein, wherein the drum is configured to be rotatably mountable on a support, and wherein rotation of the drum is operable to present parts to be inspected to the at least one gauge.
