Abstract: A doorway is provided that includes a door frame, a door and a bumper. The door frame includes a passage, a header, a first jamb and a second jamb. The passage extends laterally between the first jamb and the second jamb. The passage extends vertically along the first jamb and the second jamb to the header. The door is configured to move between a closed position and an open position. The door closes the passage in the closed position. The door opens the passage in the open position. The bumper is configured to move between a deployed position and a stowed position. The bumper is disposed in the passage and covers a portion of the door frame in the deployed position.

Abstract: A pin lock fastener comprises a fastener component (e.g., bolt or nut) having an aperture formed through an outer surface of the fastener component, and a pin supported by the fastener component and slidable through the aperture. The pin can comprise a locking end portion to interface/lock with a pin lock feature of a fastener receiver structure. The pin lock fastener can comprise an actuator cap rotatably coupled to the fastener component, and a torsion spring can have a first end coupled to the fastener component and a second end coupled to the actuator cap. The pin can be secured to the torsion spring that applies a biasing force to the pin in a normal locked position to restrict rotation of the fastener component relative to the fastener receiver structure secured to the fastener component. The pin lock fastener can be repeatedly used. Associated fastened assemblies and methods are provided.

Abstract: A locking fastener assembly comprising a fastener having a threaded portion, and a head having a first end and a second end axially spaced from the first end, the second end comprising a fastening surface and a locking washer recess. The locking fastener assembly further comprises a locking washer disposed at least partially within the locking washer recess, the locking washer comprising a locking tab extending in a first direction and a stop biased in a second direction opposing the first direction, wherein the locking tab is operable to lock rotation of the locking washer relative to an item being secured upon a torqueing rotation and a loosening rotation of the fastener. A locking member is supported by the fastener, and operable to interface with the stop of the locking washer upon the loosening rotation of the fastener to lock the fastener relative to the item being secured.

Abstract: An electrical nut assembly for coupling an electrical lug to an electrical post is disclosed. The electrical nut assembly comprises a compression fitting and a compression sleeve. The compression fitting comprises a material comprising a first yield strength and comprises an internal thread operable to electrically couple to the electrical post and a base surface configured to electrically couple to the electrical lug. The compression sleeve comprises a material comprising a second yield strength greater than the first yield strength and is sized to at least partially cover the compression fitting. The compression sleeve is configured to compress the compression fitting in a radial direction when fitted at least partially over the compression fitting and pressed or advanced axially towards the base surface and as the compression fitting makes contact with the electrical lug.

Abstract: A spring-loaded ball valve includes a spring, a first pin, a second pin, and a handle. The spring is configured to apply pressure to the first pin and second pin when the ball valve is in both the fully open and fully closed positions. The spring applies maximum torque when the ball valve is in the fully open or fully closed position to ensure the valve remains in the fully open or fully closed position.
