Abstract:
An insulated staple includes a staple including a crown extending between a pair of legs and an insulator including an insulator bridge extending between a pair of insulator legs and a channel extending from an end of one of the insulator legs to an end of the other of the insulator legs. The staple is at least partially received in the channel. A width of the channel at the insulator bridge is greater than a thickness of the staple crown. The insulator includes protrusions extending into the channel and defining therebetween a gap that, in absence of the staple, has a width less than the width of the staple crown to provide a friction fit between the staple crown and the insulator.
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Fügeelement (1) zum Herstellen einer Verbindung zwischen mindestens zwei Bauteilen, insbesondere ein Setzbolzen. Das Fügeelement umfasst: einen Kopf (10) an einem ersten axialen Ende, eine Spitze an einem dem ersten axialen Ende gegenüberliegenden zweiten axialen Ende sowie einen zwischen der Spitze und dem Kopf angeordneten Schaft (30), der eine Längsachse des Fügeelements zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten axialen Ende definiert. Die Spitze weist im Querschnitt entlang der Längsachse einen in Bezug auf die Längsachse spiegelsymmetrischen kreisförmigen Bereich (22) mit einem ersten Radius r1 benachbart zum Schaft auf. Der Mittelpunkt des kreisförmigen Bereichs liegt auf einer Senkrechten zu der Längsachse des Fügeelements, so dass die Spitze im kreisförmigen Bereich spitzbogenförmig zum zweiten axialen Ende zuläuft. Weiterhin weist die Spitze einen konvexen kreisförmigen Endbereich mit einem zweiten Radius r2 im Anschluss an den kreisförmigen Bereich auf, dessen Mittelpunkt auf der Längsachse des Fügeelements benachbart zum zweiten axialen Ende angeordnet ist. Für ein Verhältnis zwischen dem ersten Radius r1 und einem Durchmesser ds des Schafts benachbart zur Spitze gilt: 0,6 ≤ r1/ds ≤ 5,5.
Abstract:
Techniques for implementing a pipeline system that includes a pipe segment deployed on an inclined surface, in which the pipe segment includes tubing that defines a bore and a fluid conduit implemented in an annulus of the tubing, a pipe fitting secured to the pipe segment, and a pipeline retainer stake. The pipeline retainer stake includes a stake body, in which the stake body includes a pipeline engaging portion and one or more stake legs used to engage ground proximate the pipeline system, and a pipeline engaging component implemented on an inner surface of the pipeline engaging portion of the stake body, in which the pipeline engaging component engages the pipeline system to facilitate offsetting a parallel force resulting from deployment on the inclined surface at least in part by facilitating transfer of the parallel force from the pipeline system to the ground via the pipeline retainer stake.
Abstract:
A control valve comprises a body. A diverter is disposed within the body. The diverter is movably positionable within the body such that the diverter can assume a first position, second position and third position. The body includes one or more exhaust ports, a supply port, a first outlet port and a second outlet port. The body and diverter are configured such that: when the diverter is in the first position, the supply port and first outlet port fluidly communicate and the one or more exhaust ports and second outlet port are fluidly isolated; when the diverter is in the second position, the first outlet port and one of the one or more exhaust ports fluidly communicate and the supply port and second outlet port are fluidly isolated; and when the diverter is in the third position, the first outlet port and second outlet port fluidly communicate and the supply port and the one or more exhaust ports are fluidly isolated.
Abstract:
An anchor assembly for hanging an object on a wall includes a first anchor component and a second anchor component. The first anchor component includes a base having front, back, top, bottom, left and right sides, and at least one wall penetrating retainer extending from the base and having a wall penetrating extent that protrudes rearwardly of the base and has a downwardly curved configuration. The second anchor component includes a base having front, back, top, bottom, left and right sides, at least one wall penetrating retainer extending from the base of the second anchor component and having a wall penetrating extent that protrudes rearwardly of the base of the second anchor component and has a curved configuration. The second anchor component is pivotably associated with the first anchor component for movement between an anchoring orientation and a non-anchoring orientation.
Abstract:
La pièce (10) de support pour supporter un dispositif, comporte : - une base (105) comportant : - une ouverture (115) entourée d'ailettes (120) souples, sur une face de la base, pour amortir un choc appliqué à un clou (135) traversant l'ouverture, - sur une face opposée à la face couverte de pièces souples, au moins un relief agrippant et - un moyen (110) de fixation auquel le dispositif peut être solidarisé. Préférentiellement, la pièce de support comporte, de plus, une rondelle (125) pour répartir l'effort appliqué, par la tête du clou sur les pièces souples, sur une partie de la base.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a single-sided deck clip that allows an approach to deck board installation with hidden fasteners, and without grooving both edges of a deck board. By not grooving edges, perimeter trim can include one square finished edge on ending pieces. The single-sided clip allows for attaching fasteners through the clip at an angle that penetrates both a deck board and an underlying joist, thus providing a positive connection of decking to joist framing below. In another embodiment, a clip magazine is disclosed that stores, supplies, and assists in installation of single-sided deck clips and fasteners. The clip magazine can hold a plurality fasteners and single-sided deck clips. The magazine allows the single-sided clips and fasteners to be positioned relative to the deck board, and allows fasteners to be aligned with a single-sided clip, and pushed into a deck board during installation.
