Patent number: 8025091Abstract: A temporary protection for an opening in a frame of a building component includes flexible sheet material spanning the opening between opposite sides thereof. Each end portion of the sheet material is connected to a frame member at a respective side of the opening, the flexible sheet material being of an open structure and the connection with the frame member being by adhesive which permeates the material from one side to the other. The connection of the sheet material to the frame members is such as to resist loading applied by an adult person acting against the sheet material. The sheet material can be cut by a sharp blade for subsequent removal of the temporary protection from the opening when no longer required.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2007Date of Patent: September 27, 2011Assignee: ITW Australia Pty LtdInventor: Bernard Joseph Kennelly

Patent number: 7640667Abstract: A pruner has a movable handle/blade assembly pivotally coupled to a static handle/blade assembly by a pivot assembly carried by the static handle. The pivot assembly further has a bush within the static handle and on which the movable handle/blade assembly is pivotally mounted, a spring for pivotally biasing the movable handle/blade assembly to an open position being retained by the pivot assembly within the static handle. Both the movable blade and static blade are mounted on the bush and are clamped laterally between two separate parts of the bush which are assembled together in screw threaded engagement, and the two blades are supported from the bush by a bearing ring of low friction material.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2007Date of Patent: January 5, 2010Assignee: ITW Australia Pty LtdInventors: Nathan Pollock, James Collins, Lee Rodezno, Peter Williams

Patent number: 6558097Abstract: A screw fastener (10) including an elongate shank (11) having a longitudinal axis (A), a tip (12) at one end of the shank (11), a head (13) at the opposite end of the shank (11), and a self-tapping screw thread (14) extending along at least a major portion of the shank (11). The head (13) includes a generally planar end face (17) which is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (A), and which includes means (18) for cooperation with a screw driver. The head (13) further includes boring means (15) that permits the head (13) to bore into a sheeting substrate (20). Control means (19) are provided for controlling the depth of penetration of the head (13) into the sheeting substrate (20).Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2001Date of Patent: May 6, 2003Assignee: ITW Australia Pty Ltd.Inventors: John Christopher Mallet, David Alexander Roberts

Patent number: 6209946Abstract: The present invention provides a locater pin (1) for locating a first article such as a glass window panel (104) with respect to a second article such as a window frame (101) in a vehicle chassis (100). The pin (1) includes a head portion (2) for attachment to the glass panel (104) and an elongate stem portion (3) which extends from the head portion for receipt in an aperture (102,103) of the frame (101). In this way the pin is able properly locate the glass panel relative to the frame. The locater pin (1) further includes stress dissipation means (8) which is adapted to yield in the event that a stress load greater than a predetermined limit is transmitted through the pin between the glass panel (104) and the frame (101) to thereby prevent damage to the glass panel and/or the frame. The present invention also provides a window assembly incorporating such a locater pin (1), and a vehicle incorporating such a window assembly.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 1999Date of Patent: April 3, 2001Assignee: ITW Australia Pty.
