Abstract: A ball joint having a housing with a cylindrical cavity that has an open receiving end and a closed retaining end receives a polymeric insert and a non-deformable insert therein. The polymeric insert has a cylindrical outer wall that extends upwardly from a base and the interior of the insert defines a concave spherical contour. The non-deformable insert fits into a slot formed in the base of the polymeric insert and rests against the housing's bottom. A ball stud comprising a shank with a spherical ball at one end thereof snaps into the polymeric insert and the non-deformable insert. A retaining ring slips over the shank of the ball stud into the receiving end of the housing and its inner surface also has a spherical contour conforming to the spherical ball. The inserts, the ball of the ball stud and the retainer ring are held in the housing by forming the periphery of the housing at the receiving end to overlay the retaining ring.

Abstract: An apparatus for producing shear deformation in a work piece, the apparatus comprising: a processing channel through which the work piece passes, the processing channel including first and second channel sections which intersect at an angle to each other; a plurality of drive members configured to engage sides of the work piece to drive it through the processing channel so that the work piece passes from the first channel section to the second channel section to produce shear deformation in the work piece; and a drive surface disposed at an intersection of the first and second channel sections, the drive surface being configured to engage the work piece and advance it through the intersection, wherein opposing sides of the first channel section are defined by a pair of die faces relative to which the drive members are rotatably fixed, the separation of the die faces being variable in response to thickness variations of the work piece to maintain drive of the work piece through the processing channel.

Abstract translation: 一种用于在工件中产生剪切变形的装置，所述装置包括：工件通过的处理通道，所述处理通道包括彼此成角度相交的第一和第二通道部分; 多个驱动构件，其构造成接合工件的侧面以将其驱动通过处理通道，使得工件从第一通道部分通过到第二通道部分，以在工件中产生剪切变形; 以及设置在所述第一和第二通道部分的交叉点处的驱动表面，所述驱动表面被配置为接合所述工件并将其推进通过所述交叉点，其中所述第一通道部分的相对侧面由相对的一对模具面限定 驱动构件被可旋转地固定到其上，模具面的分离响应于工件的厚度变化而变化，以保持工件通过处理通道的驱动。
