Clamp unit and clamp device

A clamping unit includes a case with a contact surface, an operation member arranged movable in a pressing cancellation direction and a pressing promotion direction relative to the case, a pressing body arranged in a movable manner in the case to oppose the contact surface, and a movable body between the pressing body and contact surface. At least one of the contact surface, movable body, and pressing body includes an inclined surface. The inclined surface increases a protruding amount of the pressing body from the case when the movable body changes in position as the operation member moves in the pressing promotion direction and eases pressing of the movable body against the pressing body when the movable body changes in position as the operation member moves in the pressing cancellation direction to permit a decrease in the protruding amount of the pressing body from the case.

Constant velocity housing lock system
11708860 · 2023-07-25 ·

A constant velocity housing is provided to couple a plunging CV joint with a transaxle. The constant velocity comprises an elongate housing configured to retain the plunging CV joint and a splined shaft configured to engage with a transaxle. A locking system removably retains the splined shaft within the transaxle. The locking system comprises a lock pin in mechanical communication with pins slidably retained within radial holes disposed in the splined shaft underneath a snap-ring. An actuator moves the lock pin to push the pins to operably change a diameter of the snap-ring. When the actuator is loosened, the snap-ring constricts to a diameter less than the diameter of the splined shaft, allowing removal of the splined shaft from the transaxle. When the actuator is fully tightened, the snap-ring assumes a diameter greater than the diameter of the splined shaft, such that the spline shaft remains engaged with the transaxle.

Connection mechanism

A connection mechanism is used for detachably installing a carrier device to a supporting device. The connection mechanism includes a first base, fixed on the supporting device, a second base, fixed on the carrier device and detachably connected to the first base, a latch, movably disposed on the second base and corresponding to the first base, and an operating component, disposed on the second base and operably connected to the latch. The operating component selectively drives the latch to move to a locking position so that the second base is locked to the first base, or drives the latch to move to an unlocking position so that the second base is unlocked from the first base.

Locking pin with protected locking mechanism

A locking pin with a locking mechanism (8, 27, 28) that has a guide sleeve (3) that can be attached to a machine part, and a pin (2) connected to an actuator button (6), which passes through a central bore (14) in the actuator button (6), and which can be axially displaced and secured in a hole in the guide sleeve (3) counter to and by means of the force of a compression spring (7) by actuating the actuator button (6), wherein the pin (2) can be brought into at least two locking positions in the guide sleeve (3) by means of the locking mechanism (8, 27, 28) located in the central bore (17), wherein the locking mechanism (8, 27, 28) is sealed in the central bore (14) of the actuator button (6) in the region of a second guide sleeve (12) that is coaxial to the first guide sleeve (3) and connected thereto, and is composed of a locking sleeve (8) secured to the actuator button (6), the sleeve extension (15) of which forms a locking contour (28) in conjunction with a locking recess (27) located in the region of the second guide sleeve (12).

CONNECTING DEVICE AND DISPLAY SCREEN HAVING SAME
20170268554 · 2017-09-21 ·

The invention discloses a connecting device and a display screen with the same. Wherein, the connecting device includes: a first connecting member, including a first fixed part, a first movable part and a first elastic part positioned between the first fixed part and the first movable part, the first fixed part being provided with a first component connecting part and the first movable part being provided with a mounting through hole; and a second connecting member matched with the first connecting member, the first movable part having a connection state of causing the hole wall of the mounting through hole to extend into the accommodation groove and a separation state of causing the hole wall of the mounting through hole to extend out of the accommodation groove and the first movable part being in the connection state only under the action of the first elastic part.

Quick disconnect securement device
09765806 · 2017-09-19 ·

A quick disconnect device for detachably holding a long gun or other elongated emergency tool (EET). The quick disconnect device receives and captures the ball of a ball-and-stem structure that is attached to the EET. The quick disconnect device may allow the EET to rotate about the central axis of the stem, but otherwise prevents relative translational and rotational motion between the EET and the quick disconnect device. The quick disconnect device is especially suitable for mounting to clothing, such as a utility belt or a ballistic vest. the quick disconnect device allows the EET to be inserted without requiring the user to directly manipulate the quick connection device, but requires the user to manipulate some sort of mechanism on the quick connect device in order to release the EET.

Torque link apex quick release locking mechanism

A torque link assembly for a landing gear includes a lower torque link and an upper torque link that releasably engage first and second quick release pin assemblies. The pin assemblies each include a housing attached to one of the torque links, and a locking pin member extending through the housing. The locking pin member includes a rod portion and a pin portion, and is slidable between an engaged position and a disengaged position for hingedly connecting/disconnecting the torque links. One of the housing and the locking pin member includes a channel having a longitudinal portion and a circumferential portion, and the other has a guide pin that engages the channel. The guide pin is in the longitudinal portion of the channel when moving between the engaged and disengaged positions, and is retained in the disengaged position when the guide pin is in the circumferential portion of the channel.
