摘要： A coupling device including a first member provided with external threads and a second member having an opening therein into which the first member is inserted. The second member is provided with a plurality of movably mounted internally threaded elements for receiving the external threads of the first member. A structure is provided whereby the first member may be inserted within the second member by rectilinear sliding movement, afterwhich the first member is rotated into tight engagement with the second member. Release of the first member is accomplished by rotating the first member very slightly in the opposite direction, afterwhich simple manual manipulation of the second member withdraws the threaded elements from engagement permitting the first member to be slidably removed from the second member.

摘要： A threaded fastener has a casing enclosing at least three radially inwardly biased arcuate segments positioned to engage the threads of a bolt or hollow threaded member. The casing defines spaced apart internal frustoconical surfaces positioned to engage corresponding surfaces of the segments in the same axial direction. The radially inner ends of the frustoconical surfaces are directed toward a first end of the fastener, and the diameter of the radially inner end of the frustoconical surface away from the first end of the fastener is less than the radially outer diameter of the other frustoconical surface. The threads of the segments substantially fully engage the threads of the bolt or hollow threaded member.

摘要： An automatic transmission comprises a first rotating assembly coupled via a bias member to a second rotating assembly. The second rotating assembly varies its effective diameter in response to the torque applied to the transmission. The bias member, e.g., a spring, holds the first and second rotating assemblies in a first relative position. However, as the applied torque increases the bias tension is overcome and relative rotation of the first and second assemblies occurs towards a second relative position; and simultaneously, the effective diameter of the second rotating assembly decreases.

摘要： A handheld computer keyboard system for use in conjunction with small computerized apparatus such as Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) features a keyboard, a cover, and an I/O connector to allow a computerized apparatus to be connected to the keyboard. The system also features a retractable stabilizing leg for greater stability when the system is set on a flat surface. The system allows a user to input text and data into a device such as a PDA, which typically must be done with a stylus, with a more convenient keyboard. The cover for the system closes to protect the keyboard and provides a support easel for the PDA when the system is in use.

摘要： A threaded coupler includes a plurality of circumferentially distributed internally threaded segments arranged to create a bore for inserting an externally threaded member. A casing surrounds the threaded segments. The casing includes a first inclined surface of revolution extending at an acute angle to an axis of the coupler. A spring resiliently urges the segments radially inward to the axis of the coupler. Each of the plurality of segments includes an inclined surface which defines a second inclined surface of revolution co-acting with the first inclined surface of revolution of the casing.
