403324000 | Transversely sliding pin | 8 |
20080205978 | Cable actuated pin latching mechanism with automatic cable tension and pin release features - A cable actuated pin latching mechanism adapted for releasably connecting a header to a feeder of a combine, which automatically maintains predetermined tension conditions on the cable during normal latching and unlatching operation, and when an actuator of the mechanism is held in an unlatch position with the latch pin stuck or restrained, applies and maintains a tension force for releasing the pin, for instance, to enable a user to move to the operator cab to operate lift, tilt and/or other controls, as required for freeing the pin. | 08-28-2008 |
20110142536 | QUICK-CONNECT MOUNTING APPARATUS FOR MODULAR PUMP SYSTEM OR GENERATOR SYSTEM - A quick-connect mounting apparatus used to join a drive mechanism to a driven mechanism is disclosed. The disclosed invention is particularly useful when the drive mechanism and the driven mechanism have rotatable members that must be joined together for proper operation. | 06-16-2011 |
20110176865 | CAM-BOLT ASSEMBLY - A cam-bolt assembly includes a latch handle having a cam portion having first and second cam arms. A hinge pin slides through an aperture created through the cam arms and includes a threaded aperture. A clamp rod has a threaded portion engaged with the threaded aperture and opposed washer engagement flats each having a pin receiving bore aligned perpendicular to the flats. A pivot washer is rotatably connected by a pivot pin received through the pin receiving bore and is rotatable from a first position having the pivot washer coaxially aligned with a clamp rod longitudinal axis to a second position transverse to the first position. The pivot washer rotates from the first to the second position in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. The pivot washer is retained in the second position by horizontal displacement in a direction transverse to the clamp rod longitudinal axis after rotation. | 07-21-2011 |
20110206449 | Retained Lock System and Method - An apparatus for securing first and second ends of a meter sealing ring, the meter sealing ring adapted for use in installing a meter to a watthour meter box. The apparatus comprises a lock having a head member and a shank portion comprising moveable locking members, the shank portion being insertable through an aperture formed in the first end of the sealing ring. The apparatus further comprises at least a retaining sleeve adapted to capture the shank portion, wherein the lock is retained on the first end of the sealing ring. | 08-25-2011 |
20110243654 | COUPLER - A coupler for an excavator, the coupler comprising a body having first and second recesses for receiving first and second pins, respectively, of an attachment; a latching member movable into and out of a latching state in which it at least partially closes said second pin-receiving recess; and a blocking member movable into and out of a blocking state in which a portion of the blocking member at least partially closes said first recess, actuating means for moving said first latching member into and out of said latching state, said actuating means acting indirectly upon said blocking member to move said blocking member into and out of its blocking state as the latching member is moved into and out of its latching state. Preferably the actuating means acts upon said blocking member via a resiliently deformable member acting between the actuating means and the blocking member whereby said resilient member can deflect should the blocking member be obstructed to avoid excessive loading on the actuating means. | 10-06-2011 |
20120207539 | CARTRIDGE MISINSERTION PREVENTING MECHANISM AND MAGNETIC TAPE LIBRARY DEVICE CELL - Provided are: a first entry preventing nail that interferes with a cartridge at a position closer to an insertion/extraction port than an insertion completed position of an insertion-side end face of the cartridge inserted first; a second entry preventing nail at a position with a space from the first entry preventing nail slightly longer than length of the cartridge, which allows entry of the cartridge and retreat of the first entry preventing nail at that position when a tapered face of the cartridge is at that position while preventing the entry of the cartridge and retreat of the first entry preventing nail at that position when the tapered face of the cartridge is not at that position; and a linkage module which allows advancing and retreating actions of the first and second entry preventing nails in a tradeoff relation. | 08-16-2012 |
20150056008 | BAR COUPLER - A coupler or connector for joining bars, for example reinforcing bars, comprising an elongate rod member adapted to be inserted into a tubular sleeve member. The rod and sleeve members each have one or more transverse holes which align when the rod member is inserted into the sleeve member. In operational use, the rod and sleeve members are attached to the free ends of the bars to be connected. One or more transverse pins are then driven into the holes which are aligned in order to lock the rod and sleeve member together thereby connecting the bars. In another example of the invention, the pins can be spring loaded and/or the elongate rod member is adapted to be inserted into a pair of opposed sleeve members. In yet another example of the invention, there can be a plastic sleeve adapted to retain the pins in position thereby locking in place the sleeve and rod members. In another version where the pins are spring loaded, the plastic sleeve is slid off during assembly to allow the pins to engage the holes in the sleeve member(s). | 02-26-2015 |
