Abstract: A tank storage measurement device. The tank storage measurement device includes a display screen. The tank storage measurement device is configured to display on the display screen an image of a storage tank. The tank storage measurement device is additionally configured to use the image of the storage tank to identify boundaries of the storage tank and identify a qualitative level of a substance in the storage tank. The tank storage measurement device is additionally configured to generate a quantitative representation of the level of the substance using the identified boundaries and identified qualitative level of the substance. The tank storage measurement device is additionally configured to display on the display screen the generated quantitative representation of the level of the substance.

Abstract: A spanner wrench and a method of rotating an object with the spanner wrench is provided. The spanner wrench is configured to engage and rotate the object, and the spanner wrench is supported in a manner that resists tilting and transverse movement of the spanner wrench as the spanner wrench is rotating the object.

Abstract: A tweezer device and method of using that provides an improved gripping tip concept for gripping a work object. The tweezer device comprises two gripping tip bodies arranged in a symmetric vee configuration supported on a first flexible tweezer beam, and a third gripping tip body supported on a second flexible tweezer beam arranged in such a manner that the third gripping tip body engages a work object and directs a force on the work object that is approximately coplanar with the plane of symmetry of the vee configured structure in a manner that pushes the work object into contact with the two vee configured gripping tip bodies thus forming two lines of contact between the work object and the vee configured tip bodies.

Abstract: A retaining sleeve for retaining magnets inserted therein so that the magnets may be overmolded with a polymer pursuant to the manufacture of a rotor for an electric motor. The retaining sleeve comprising a generally cylindrical portion having an inner peripheral surface concentric about a central axis and a plurality of retaining partitions extending inward from the inner peripheral surface of the generally cylindrical portion, wherein the retaining partitions are configured to at least substantially limit movement of the magnets toward the central axis upon the magnets being inserted in the retaining sleeve at their respective locations inward of the inner peripheral surface of the retaining sleeve and between retaining partitions.
