    摘要: An assembly (10) for holding a tree (12) in an upright position above a level surface (14) includes a base (22) for supporting the tree (12). A rim (24) holds a quantity of water (20) on the base (22) and in contact with the tree's trunk end (16). Four retainer pins (60) hold the trunk end (16) centrally on the base means (22). A back-up retainer (32) limits trunk end (16) sliding or twisting while allowing the quantity of water (20) to flow to the trunk end (16). Guy elements (28) engage the trunk (18) of the tree at an elevated position above the trunk's end (16) and resist tree-tipping forces. Clamps (30), disposed at spaced locations around the rim (24), hold the guy elements (28) to the rim (24). Each clamp (30) has a lever arm (118) that adjustably and releasably clamps the guy elements (28) to the base (22) as the lever arm (118) is pivoted between engaged (A) and disengaged (B) positions. A reservoir fence (176) prevents objects, such as tree skirts from contacting the water (20). The assembly (10) is fully stackable when disassembled.

    摘要: A workpiece transfer apparatus (10) for a punch press (12) including a first jaw (80) for engaging one side of workpieces (16) progressively forming die stations, and a second jaw (82) for engaging the other side of the workpieces (16). The reciprocating motion of the press ram (14) oscillates a first (34) and a second (36) rocker arm in unison. The first rocker arm (34) is connected to the first jaw (80) through a first clutch (26) and the second rocker arm (36) is connected to the second jaw (82) through a second clutch (28). As the rocker arms (34, 36) oscillate, they drive the jaws (80, 82) longitudinally of the die stations to progressively index the workpieces (16) from one die station to the next. When a predetermined level of resistance against one of the first (80) or second (82) jaws is encountered during operation, that respective first (26) or second (28) clutch will disengage the associated rocker arm (34, 36) while the other first (80) or second (82) jaw remains operatively connected to its rocker arm (34, 36).

    摘要: A plastic stand assembly (10) is provided for supporting an upright pole (12) such as used with artificial Christmas trees, merchandise display stands or the like. A substantially circular domed body includes an annular flange (20) forming a bearing surface (18). A receptacle (34) is formed in the body and includes a multi-sectioned conically tapering side wall terminating at a bottom (36). A collet (44) surrounds the pole (17) and is wedged into the receptacle (34) to hold the pole (12) in a vertical position. The collet (44) includes an annular neck (46) and four wedge-shaped grippers (48) which extend in cantilever fashion from the neck (46). Screws (48) pass through ears (64) in the collet (44) and thread into sockets (70) in the body to hold the collet (44) tightly wedged into the receptacle (34). A plurality of radial (30) and circumferential (32) ribs are located on the underside of the body for structural rigidity.

    摘要: A transfer device for transferring workpieces progressively from station to station in a press by means of mechanical linkages actuated by the press ram. The linkages have a brake mechanism strategically located and uniquely operative to prevent destructive vibrations that otherwise occur particularly during high speed operation of the press. The device has the further optional capability of lifting and carrying all or selected workpieces during the transfer operation.
