Abstract: A method of charging an electric vehicle (EV) includes receiving a user's authentication code in an electric vehicle service equipment (EVSE) from a user's mobile device, comparing in the EVSE the user's authentication code to a whitelist having a plurality of authorized user authentication codes, and enabling an electric vehicle (EV) charging transaction serviced by the EVSE in response to the comparing of the user's authentication code to the whitelist so that a user's authentication code is authenticated to enable the EV charging transaction without concurrent access to an EVSE-related remote server.

Abstract: A nose assembly for a fastener installation tool having a housing, a piston received within the housing, a collet, a nose cap having an orifice and attached to the housing, and a seating anvil positioned between the first end of the piston and the nose cap. The anvil includes an extended front portion movable between a retracted position, in which the extended front portion is retained within the nose cap, and an extended position, in which the extended front portion advances through the orifice of the nose cap. The assembly engages a fastener having a sleeve, a pin, and a lock collar. The extended front portion of the anvil drives the lock collar to lock the pin and the sleeve with one another when the anvil is in its extended position and after a shifting pressure has been reached, the pin is set, and the sleeve is deformed by the pin.

Abstract: A safety valve for use in a meter through which gas or liquid may flow, the safety valve being activated to a closed position upon the disturbance of the system such as during an earthquake, thereby blocking the flow of liquid or gas. The valve may then be reopened by a reset assembly.
