20080196234 | Production System For Radiators, For Heating Plants - A production system for radiators, for heating plants, the system being obtained by simple assembly of two radiator half-shells ( | 08-21-2008 |
20090089995 | Roller hemming system - A roller hemming system for hemming nested panels includes a single hemming workstation providing for tooling exchange operations simultaneous with hemming operations. A plurality of robots that perform tooling exchange at the hemming workstation, movement of nested panels through the system, and hemming operations on nested panels at the hemming workstation. Nested panels are inputted into the system and hemmed nested panel assemblies are outputted from the system. | 04-09-2009 |
20090172939 | Method of Pre-assembling Pipe Couplings and Joining Pipe Elements - A method for assembling a pipe coupling and a method of joining pipe elements in end to end relation using the pre-assembled pipe coupling. The pipe coupling is formed of segments joined end to end by fasteners. Retention elements positioned on the fasteners hold the segments in spaced apart relation. The retention elements have a first surface that engages the fastener and a second surface that engages the segment to inhibit the motion of the segments relative to the fasteners. The method includes engaging the fasteners with the segments and engaging the retention elements with the fasteners and the segments to position and hold the segments in spaced apart relation. Pipe elements are inserted between the segments and force is applied to the segments which overcomes the resistance of the retention elements to move the segments into engagement with the pipe elements. | 07-09-2009 |
20100162553 | DIAPHRAGM DAMPER AND METHOD OF PRODUCTION AND PRODUCTION APPARATUS OF SAME - A method of producing a diaphragm damper | 07-01-2010 |
20140259618 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED PRESSURE VESSELS - Systems and methods are described herein for manufacturing a pressure vessel component. The pressure vessel component may be made from a metal that is cast to produce a gross pressure vessel component. Casting the metal may comprise sintering the metal followed by a hot isostatic press (HIP) process. In other embodiments, casting the metal may comprise pouring molten metal into a mold. Portions of the gross pressure vessel component may have an increased thickness located at predetermined positions on the gross pressure vessel component. These portions may include bosses or other designed features intended for the finalized pressure vessel component. The gross pressure vessel may be indexed to select the portions, and these selected portions may then be machined to produce the final pressure vessel component. | 09-18-2014 |
20140331476 | FLUID RESERVOIR SHELL - Disclosed is a fluid reservoir shell that provides protection for the fluid reservoir of a personal hydration system. The fluid reservoir shell is rigid and does not collapse easily under external pressure. The fluid reservoir shell is sized to contain the fluid reservoir but still fits in a personal hydration system pack. The shell protects the fluid reservoir and prevents the fluid reservoir from leaking due to excessive external pressure. The fluid reservoir shell disclosed includes a shell top piece and a shell bottom piece, which couple together to enclose the bladder of the fluid reservoir. The fluid reservoir shell provides ready access to the fill port and the drink tube of the fluid reservoir when the fluid reservoir is contained in the fluid reservoir shell. | 11-13-2014 |
