    摘要: A fastener including a bolt having an elongated shank having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a threaded portion having an external bolt thread, the bolt thread including a bolt pitch. The fastener includes a nut having a first end, a second end opposite the first end of the nut, and an internal nut thread extending between the first and second ends of the nut and adapted to engage threadedly the bolt thread of the bolt. The nut thread includes a nut pitch and a hardness that changes gradationally between the first and second ends of the nut. The bolt pitch of the bolt thread of the bolt is mismatched with the nut pitch of the nut thread of the nut.

    摘要: Vehicle wheels, methods of making vehicle wheels, and dual wheel assemblies are provided. The vehicle wheel comprises a generally cylindrical first region and a second region extending radially inwardly from the first region. The second region comprises a first surface, a second surface, an opening, and a hub surface. A distance from the first surface to the second surface defines a thickness. The opening is configured to receive at least a portion of a hub of the vehicle axle. The hub surface is adjacent to and surrounds the opening and extends from the first surface to the second surface. The hub surface comprises a generally flat portion and a relief portion adjacent to at least one of the first surface and the second surface. The relief portion surrounds the opening and extends along the hub surface for a distance of at least 25% of the thickness.

    摘要: An expansion joint configured to connect first and second vertical mullions of a curtain wall is disclosed. The first and second vertical mullions may each include an elongated body having an inner contour defining a hollow slot, and an inner sleeve may extend through the hollow slot of both of the first and second vertical mullions. The expansion joint may comprise a body, and an inner contour defining a central inner slot configured to receive the inner sleeve therethrough. The expansion joint may further comprise a first raised lip projecting from a lower surface of the body and configured to be inserted inside of the inner contour of the first vertical mullion, and a second raised lip projecting from an upper surface of the body and configured to be inserted inside of the inner contour of the second vertical mullion. The expansion joint may be formed from a polymeric elastomer.

    摘要: A latch having a housing and a latch mechanism located within an interior portion of the housing. The latch mechanism includes an arm, a pair of socket screws, a pair of torsion springs, each of which is connected rotatably to the arm and engages a corresponding one of the pair of socket screws, a bolt mechanism attached rotatably to the housing, and a link attached pivotally to the arm and attached to the bolt mechanism. The socket screws are utilized to adjust loads on the springs. The bolt mechanism is movable between a first position, in which the arm and the link are toggled with one another under the loads of the springs and the bolt mechanism is adapted to engage an external structure, and a second position, in which the link and the arm are untoggled with one another and the bolt mechanism is disengaged with the external structure.
