Abstract:
A winder unit is provided for use with cutting wire in cutting out a vehicle glazing panel. The winder unit includes first and second winder spools spaced apart from one another, where the winder spools are configured to wind the cutting wire. The winder unit further includes a suction mount for mounting the winder unit, wherein the suction mount comprises a single suction device only. And the winder unit further includes at least one wire guide element spaced from the winder spools, wherein the at least one wire guide element is mounted with respect to the winder unit so as to be adjustable in position or orientation with respect to at least one of the suction mount and the winder spools.
Abstract:
A moldable wire thread insert for reinforcing a screw-in opening of a component has the following characteristics: a cylindrical spiral made of a helically, wound wire, the neighboring coils of which are arranged such that a closed cylindrical spiral wall is present, while at least one end of the cylindrical spirals has a fastening flange, which extends radially outwards over the cylindrical spiral wall and with which the wire thread insert is anchorable in the component and/or one end of the cylindrical spiral is designed in a planar manner in order to form an even axial front surface of the cylindrical spiral.
Abstract:
A device for taking up a fire-fighting hose, allowing the user to quickly and reliably take up the hose with a small force in an upright posture and capable of accurately taking up the hose both in a single layer and in double layers. Wheels (2) are rotatably supported at the lower part of a frame body (1), and a handle (5) is provided to the upper part of the frame body (1). The frame body (1) can be moved by rotating the wheels (2) by pushing or pulling the handle (5). A rotatable reel (3) on which hose (H) is wound is provided to the frame body (1), a power transmitting circulation member (4) is passed over the rotating shaft (33) of the reel (3) and the rotation support shaft (21) of the wheels (2) to enable the reel (3) to rotate in association with the rotation of the wheels (2). A core member (3A) for a single-layer winding and a core member (3B) for double-layer winding, which are interchangeable, are provided to the reel (3), and either the core member (3A) for a single-layer winding or the core member (3B) for double-layer winding can be removably affixed to a rotating shaft section (30a) of a base plate (30) of the reel (3).
Abstract:
The present invention deals with a new system for transmitting energy through a cable (2) and interconnected pulleys (1, 3, 5). The traditional power transmission through pulleys sizes the system of belts and friction surfaces depending on energy to be transmitted and is obtained through systems composed of a rotary element for every point of application and of a flexible element for the connection. In the proposed system, the flexible element is a high-resistance cable (2) and friction on the rotary element is increased by using interconnected pulleys, which increase the cable friction surface allowing power transmissions without any sliding till the cable breaking point. The lightness of such system allows it to find optimum application in transmitting to ground all wind energy produced at an upper level. The system of interconnected pulleys (1, 3, 5) is further applied to discontinuous tractions in the sailing field, replacing the traditionally used winches.
Abstract:
A can-free system for handling fiber sliver includes a sliver delivery device which deposits fiber sliver in the form of a free-standing sliver pile in a depositing area. A sliver receiving device is disposed in the depositing area to receive and collect the free-standing fiber sliver pile delivered by the delivery device. A packaging apparatus compresses the collected free-standing fiber sliver pile applies one or more straps to the compressed free-standing sliver pile.
Abstract:
3-D Strip Winding System for a special giant all-steel radial OTR tire comprising: a movable base plate, a pivoting device, a support, a winding and applying device, and a bracket. The pivoting device comprises a spin orbit of an external gear ring, a positioning and rotating inner race, a support plate, a servo motor, and a drive gear. The spin orbit of an external gear ring is fixed on the plane of movable base plate. The positioning and rotating inner race is flexibly attached inside the spin orbit of an external gear ring. One end of the support plate is fixed to the positioning and rotating inner race. The servo motor is fixedly disposed on the support plate, the output end of which is connected with the drive gear after passing through the support plate. The drive gear is engaged with the outer edge of the spin orbit of the external gear ring.
Abstract:
An apparatus for winding wire upon a reel or spool includes a support for receiving the reel thereon. A spindle arm coupled to the reel support is received within an annular bearing surface of a spindle support for rotation about an axis through the annular bearing surface. A drive member, such as a Kelly Bar provided on a boom of a digger/derrick truck, may be received within a bore associated with the spindle to rotate the spindle and reel support. A reel supported on the reel support is thereby rotated to wind wire onto the reel.
Abstract:
A low cost, disposable cable pack for small buoy anchors providing a simple, standardized means to mechanically adjust for proper depth. The cable pack is comprised of two concentric hollow cylinders and a perpendicular plate. Depth settings are controlled by inserting or removing retaining pins that release predetermined lengths of anchor cable wound inside the anchor pack that pay out during anchor descent.
Abstract:
A wire winding machine includes two mandrels for winding wire alternately thereon. A traverse positions wire axially along each mandrel, and moves in an arcuate path to position wire adjacent one or the other mandrel. A single transfer arm transfers wire from a wound to an unwound mandrel by extending a wire guide adjacent the wound mandrel, retracting the wire guide to engage the wire, rotating to position the wire adjacent the wound mandrel, and extending to guide the wire into a clamping and cutting mechanism. The mechanism clamps and cuts the wire in response to the mandrel end cap being placed into position. The wire winding machine includes a portable operator console, and a network interface. A wire tension control unit includes a radiated signal source and detector to detect movement of a moveable pulley assembly relative to a fixed pulley assembly to control the supply of wire.
