Abstract in simplified Chinese:本发明备置一可调整式自锁扳手。该扳手包括一把手,具有一长形凹槽及一固锁室的一底部,一固定颚部本体,具有一延伸突缘的一可移动颚部,一弹簧以及一固锁组件。该固锁组件可在其不紧密地接触可移动颚部之延伸突缘的第一位置,以及固锁组件相对于固定颚部锁住可移动颚部于一选择位置的第二位置之间移动。
Abstract:
Compact tube and pipe expanders and flaring tools requiring reduced actuation force by a user. A flaring tool includes a flaring block and a yoke clampable to the flaring block by a clamping mechanism. The yoke includes a housing having a threaded release portion movable between a first position and a second position. A flaring cone of the yoke has a tapered flaring surface adapted to engage an internal surface of a tube and deform at least the engaged portion of the tube against the flaring block into a flared condition. A threaded feed screw is operatively coupleable to the flaring cone to move the flaring cone into engagement with the internal surface of the tube to deform it. The tool has a handle to rotate the feed screw.
Abstract:
A gauge includes a housing and a fitting having an inlet, an internal flow path, and an outlet. A sensor is in fluidic communication with the internal flow path and measures a characteristic of a fluid in the flow path. A control unit is in electrical communication with the pressure sensor, receives an output from the pressure sensor and generates a command based on the output received. A stepper motor has a rotor shaft with an indicator needle operatively connected thereto, and is in electrical communication with the control unit. A power supply is in electrical communication with the pressure sensor, the motor and the control unit for supplying power thereto. The control unit transmits the command to the stepper motor, which receives the command from the control unit and drives the rotor shaft according to the command, displaying the sensed characteristic via the needle.
Abstract:
A hole cutter for cutting a work piece, such as a wood and/or metal work piece, has a substantially cylindrical blade body defining a wall thickness within the range of about 0.032 inch to about 0.038 inch, and a cutting edge formed on one end of the blade body including a plurality of teeth defining an average tooth pitch within the range of about 3.5 TPI to about 5.5 TPI for cutting the work piece and forming chips therefrom. The substantially cylindrical blade body and cutting edge define an average tooth pitch to blade body thickness ratio of at least about 110.
Abstract:
A serrated pipe cutter comprising handles pivotally coupled together and movable between first and second positions; wherein the first handle includes a grip at one end and a blade at an opposite end; the blade includes an elongated cutting edge which defines a cutting edge surface tapering inwardly, a plurality of serrations extending along the cutting edge, and a plurality of cutting tips extending between adjacent serrations. Each serration defines a cutting edge surface, a substantially concave facet tapering inwardly, and a linear serration cutting edge extending between adjacent cutting tips. Each cutting tip defines a cutting tip surface tapering inwardly and a linear cutting tip edge extending between adjacent serrations, at least a portion of which is offset from at least a portion of the serration cutting edge.
Abstract:
A utility blade for use with conventional retractable and fixed blade utility knives comprising a blade body having a generally trapezoidal configuration defined by a cutting edge, an opposite back edge, a pair of opposing side edges and a pair of cutting points defined by the points of intersection between the side edges and the cutting edge. The blade further defines a pair of score lines, each proximate to one of the side edges. The score lines enable the user to remove a dulled or damaged cutting point, which in turn provides the user with two additional cutting points defined by the points of intersection between the score lines and the cutting edge. Further, the blade is configured with one or more notches strategically located on the back edge of the blade, such that each cutting point can extend from the utility knife at approximately the same distance.
