Abstract:
A connection rod assembly is provided that includes a connection rod, a first ball lock connector including an outer pin slidably mated with an inner spindle, including an aperture, and coupled to the connection rod, a ball lock bearing at least partially positioned within the aperture, an actuation interface coupled to the inner spindle, slidable with regard to the outer pin, and including a sleeve at least partially surrounding the outer pin, and a spring positioned within the outer pin. In a locked configuration the spring is unloaded and the ball lock bearing radially extends beyond an outer surface of the outer pin and engages with a detent in a first component. On the other hand, in an unlocked configuration the spring is loaded and the ball lock bearing is retained in a groove in the inner spindle.
Abstract:
A frame pool is disclosed including a frame assembly and a pool liner, the frame assembly including horizontal frame members and a vertical frame member coupled together via a T-shaped joint. The T-shaped joint may be constructed of plastic to facilitate attachment and detachment to the adjacent frame members and to resist galling and corrosion. The T-shaped joint may also be relatively small to improve the appearance and water containment of the frame pool.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a coupling for connecting construction parts, a truss provided therewith and associated method and use. The coupling comprises a female and a male coupling part. The female coupling part comprises: a tubular receiving part, in the wall of which an opening is provided; a ball which is placed in the opening and which is movable in radial direction of the receiving part; and a locking sleeve which is screwed onto and encloses the receiving part and which by being screw ed is movable in the longitudinal direction of the receiving part between an opened position, in which the locking sleeve allows movement of the ball in the opening for the purpose of placing/removing the male coupling part into/from the receiving part, and a closed position in which the locking sleeve locks the male coupling part in the female coupling part with the ball, wherein the male coupling part is an elongate pin which comprises in its outer wall a groove for the ball.
Abstract:
A device comprising a first part and a second part that comprise a first fastening tool (FT1), a first receptor (R1), a second receptor (R2) for engaging with the first fastening tool (FT1), and a movable latch (L) for engaging with the first receptor (R1), wherein a single act of engaging the first fastening tool (FT1) with the second receptor (R2) to establish a first connection between the first and second parts, also makes the movable latch (L) engage with the first receptor (R1) to establish a second connection between the first and second parts, the second connection being spaced apart from the first connection, whereby both the first and second connections result from operating only the first fastening tool (FT1).
Abstract:

La pieza de entronque para estructuras de barras consiste en una pieza fabricada por extrusión con zonas mecanizadas aptas para ajustarse a los perfiles de las barras a unir, determinando el ángulo de unión de las barras con la pieza de entronque.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, the structural joint includes a first structural member having a first mating face at one end of the first structural member, the first mating face having a two dimensional profile, a second structural member having a second mating face at one end of the second structural member and positioned proximate to the first mating face of the first structural member, the second mating face having a two dimensional profile that is similar to the two dimensional profile of the first mating face, a splice plate secured to the first structural member at the first mating face and removably secured to the second structural member at the second mating face, and fasteners that secure the splice plate to the first structural member and removably attach the splice plate to the second structural member.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fastener (1), preferably intended for fitting of heavy and/or bulky components in, for example, a vehicle. The invention is effected by the fastener (1) consisting of at least two separate elements (la,b, 16a, b) which are detachable from one another, by the two elements (la,b, 16a, b) at least partly taking the form of channel sections with side flanges (4, 12), by the side flanges (4,12) in the two fastener elements (la,b, 16a, b) being provided with at least one pair of holes (5) and/or by a first fastener element (la, 16a) being provided at its end portion (6) with a recess (7,17) in which a guide (13) situated in the second fastener element (lb, 16b) can be fitted and/or inserted, thereby detachably fixing the second fastener element (lb, 16b) to the first fastener element (la, 16a) and keeping it suspended in this position without further fitting measures.
Abstract:
A lattice support structure or tower comprising one or more open matrix composite strut members connecting a series of interlocking connectors to create a ridged support platform for telecommunications, surveillance, renewable energy, lighting and energy transmission applications. Embodiments of the invention are telescoping for ease of transport and erection. The erection and deployment can be achieved through means of automatic deployment or manual.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a coupling device for releasably coupling tubes of a pole dancing pole. The coupling device comprises a body, and a mechanism comprising a first threaded element and a screw member mating with each other, the mechanism being arranged to apply a force to an interior surface of at least one of the tubes by turning the screw member with respect to the first threaded element. The mechanism is further arranged such that, during operation of the mechanism to increase the force applied to the interior surface of at least one of the tubes, a screw axis of the first threaded element and a screw axis of the screw member remain substantially aligned with each other. The present invention further relates to a pole dancing pole and a pole dancing pole kit comprising the coupling device in accordance with the present invention.
