    摘要: A light shelf for controlling solar radiation that impinges on a building has a panel with a pair of support brackets. The brackets run along tracks secured to the building and engage the tracks to assume a variety of elevations. The brackets can be moved independently, allowing the panel to be tilted and may have pivot joints to facilitate tilting. The panel may be mounted to the brackets in a way that allows the panel to translate horizontally. The panel may have a plurality of elements that can be adjusted to change the surface area and may be automated to respond to ambient conditions.

    摘要: A fastener including a bolt and a grommet assembly attached to the bolt for fastening to a work piece. The grommet assembly includes an upper grommet, a lower grommet attached to the upper grommet, a retainer ring, and a housing that houses the retainer ring within the lower grommet. The upper grommet is inserted into a hole at one side of the work piece and the lower grommet is attached to the upper grommet through the hole at an opposite side of the work piece. The retainer ring is inserted into the lower grommet and encapsulated by the housing. The bolt is inserted into the grommet assembly, and the retainer ring engages the bolt such that a plurality of pressure pads extending from a plurality of corresponding spring beam elements of the retainer ring reside in an annular groove of the bolt. The grommet assembly captivates the bolt onto the work piece, while providing a positive hold out of the bolt.

    摘要: A swage collar including a shank having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and an outside diameter, a flange extending circumferentially from the first end of the shank and having a outer diameter, and a scalloped shoulder formed at a location where the first end of the shank transitions to the flange. When the swage collar is swaged, the shoulder is deformed from an undeformed state to a deformed state such that the shoulder is blended with the outside diameter of the shank and the outer diameter of the flange. When the shoulder is in its deformed state, it includes multiple curved portions each having a radius of curvature that visually indicates all around the outside diameter of the collar a complete swage of the collar. Knurling located on the outside diameter of the shank and proximate to the second end is deformable and provides a visual indication of the application of an installation tool.

    摘要: Molten metal of a first composition flows out of a first chamber via an open first control apparatus into a mold cavity. The first control apparatus is closed. A second control apparatus is opened. Molten metal of a second composition, different from the first composition, flows out of a second feed chamber via the second control apparatus into the mold cavity. At least a portion of the first composition metal in the mold cavity is sufficiently molten that an initial feed of the second composition molten metal mixes with the first composition molten metal in the mold cavity. An ingot is removed from the mold cavity, the ingot having top, middle, and bottom sections, the bottom section composed of metal of the first composition, the top section composed of metal of the second composition, and the middle section composed of a mixture of metal of the first and second compositions.

    摘要: In accordance with the instant disclosure, aluminum electrolysis cells having reduced cathode voltage drop and methods of operating the same are provided. More particularly, the instant disclosure provides a compression device for applying a force to an end of the current collector subassembly to improve the contact, thereby reducing the joint resistance across the interface between the cathode block and the current collector subassembly. The compression device is used in conjunction with the systems and methods of the instant disclosure.
