Patent number: 10495162Abstract: An assembly to secure a disc brake rotor to a wheel hub utilizing spring pins and a retaining ring is provided. A partial keyway is formed in the rotor, and a partial keyway is formed in the wheel hub. The rotor is fitted over an inwardly extending section of the hub, with the partial keyways in the rotor and in the wheel hub being aligned to form complete keyways. The spring pins are then press fit into the completed keyways. Finally, a retaining ring is installed into a slot formed in the inwardly extending section of the wheel hub to complete the assembly of the disc brake rotor assembly.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2017Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: Consolidated Metco, Inc.Inventors: Jared Wiley Richard Burris, Pavan Kumar Dunna, Nazar Ventaminovich Demenko, Darren Kirk Johnson, Jonathan David Harrington, Keith Darran Mann, William Joseph Edwards

Patent number: 4030431Abstract: A thread shield, for a sewing machine having means to interrupt needle bar reciprocation and a take-up with a threading slot to an eyelet thereof, to discourage thread escape from the eyelet or double threading of the eyelet by loose, slung around thread. The sewing machine take-up moves in an up and down path from an uppermost position, where thread may be drawn to the eyelet by way of the threading slot, to a lower position where appreciable slack thread forms when the needle bar reciprocation is interrupted. At the position where appreciable slack thread forms, the take-up moves closely adjacent to an upstanding rib which overlaps the entry to the threading slot thus to deter thread loops from reentering the threading slot. The forward surface of the upstanding rib is tapered in a horizontal plane towards the take-up lever to impede thread, which might otherwise move from the eyelet rearwardly down the threading slot to the threading slot entry.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 1976Date of Patent: June 21, 1977Assignee: The Singer CompanyInventors: Adolph Martin, William Joseph Edwards
