20090044400 | CABLE MARKER PLACEMENT TOOL AND METHOD - An apparatus for lifting and applying a rolled, tubular aerial cable marker to a cable, including a support, a top holding bar carried by the support for receiving and retaining a top end of a cable marker roll in an at least partially unrolled, tensioned condition, and for positioning and releasing the top end of the cable marker onto the cable. A bottom holding bar is carried by the support and retains a bottom end of the rolled cable marker, and releases the bottom end of the cable marker onto the cable, thereby allowing the cable marker to return to its initial, rolled tubular shape in position around the cable. A related method is also disclosed. | 02-19-2009 |
20090199397 | System for tightly covering an elongate member with an elastic protection sleeve - The system includes, in addition to the sleeve ( | 08-13-2009 |
20090241324 | Tool for installing flexible strand like material in a split harness wrap - A tool for installing flexible strand like material in a split harness wrap, wherein the tool is capable of handling harnesses of selectively different diameters, and in which the tool is formed in sections adapted for folding in mating relationship over lengths of cable to be wrapped. The tool has ridges or tracks for spreading the harness open and receiving the selected harness arranged over the cable. | 10-01-2009 |
20100212144 | CONCENTRIC CAMSHAFT AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLY - A camshaft assembly method may include locating a first lobe member of a camshaft assembly on a first shaft of the assembly. A locking pin may be inserted into a first radial bore in the first lobe member and a second radial bore of the first shaft. The locking pin may have an annular wall defining a pin bore extending from a first end of the locking pin to a second end of the locking pin. A deforming member may be forced into the pin bore to displace the annular wall in an outward radial direction and into a frictional engagement with the first radial bore. The forcing may include a deforming member entering the pin bore at the first end of the locking pin and exiting the pin bore at the second end of the locking pin. | 08-26-2010 |
20110056070 | SLEEVE INSERTING APPARATUS - A sleeve inserting apparatus, which can securely insert a sleeve into the inside of a braid of a coaxial cable, is provided. The sleeve inserting apparatus | 03-10-2011 |
20130061465 | APPARATUSES FOR DISPOSING TUBULAR COVERING SLEEVES FOR ELECTRIC-CABLE JOINTS ON SUPPORTING ELEMENTS - An apparatus for disposing a tubular covering sleeve for electric-cable joints on a supporting element may include a support for the tubular covering sleeve; a pair of expanders; driving means configured to introduce the expanders into respective ends of the tubular covering sleeve and to cause radial expansion of the tubular covering sleeve; and devices for disposing the tubular covering sleeve in a radially expanded condition on the supporting element. The expanders may be configured to be placed in substantially coaxial positions relative to the tubular covering sleeve at the respective ends of the tubular covering sleeve. | 03-14-2013 |
20130205584 | SNARE INTRODUCER - An introducer with a longitudinal slit is disclosed. The slit may enable a practitioner to remove the introducer from an elongate instrument without removing the elongate instrument from a hub or catheter. A hub having a hub taper is also disclosed. The hub taper may be configured to retain the introducer within the hub in some embodiments. | 08-15-2013 |
20130263443 | AIR INVERSION AND STEAM CURE OF CURED IN PLACE LINERS APPARATUS - An air inversion and steam cure apparatus for installing a flexible resin impregnated cured in place liner in an existing conduit is provided. The apparatus has a low friction seal between a moving liner and the stationary apparatus gland. The gland is operated and adjusted by displaceable members that move substantially perpendicular to the liner being inverted to engage the moving liner as it passes through the gland. No part of the gland extends into the chamber so that once a pre-shaped gland is adjusted, the pressure on the moving liner is not increased. As the liner reaches the distal end, it enters a sample and porting pipe with an exhaust pipe gland and exhaust pipe and is pierced by a rigid porting tool. Steam is then introduced into the liner to cure the resin and is exhausted through an exhaust hose connected to the porting tool. After cure, steam is replaced with air to cool the liner and the ends are cut to restore service through the existing conduit. | 10-10-2013 |
20140123481 | THERMAL CONTRACTION COMPENSATION FOR SUPERCONDUCTING AND CRYO-RESISTIVE CABLES - A cable insertion tool for installing thermally compensated superconducting and cryo-resistive cables is disclosed. The cable insertion tool includes a guide tube adapted to engage a pipe and to prevent a cable positioned therein from buckling, a cross-bar adapted to move along the guide tube and engage an end of the cable positioned therein, and a cable drive apparatus operably connected to the cross-bar. The cable drive apparatus is adapted to move the cross-bar such that the cable positioned in the guide tube is forced into the pipe. | 05-08-2014 |
