Abstract: An adhesive and release liner application system and method. A bottom table is slidable with respect to a frame and a middle table is slidable with respect to the bottom table. An elevator drive subsystem between a top table and the middle table is configured to adjust the elevation of the top table relative to the middle table. An adhesive head, connected to an adhesive supply subsystem, a release liner applicator, a release liner cutter, and a staple gun are mounted to the top table for applying the adhesive to a surface of a structural member positioned adjacent the top table, for applying a release liner over the adhesive on the surface, for inserting at least one staple through the release liner and into the surface, and for cutting the release liner.

Abstract: A process provides for manufacturing and formation of a series of metallic end products (220) within a stamping machine (100). The metallic end products (220) are formed from two subcomponents (176, 178) comprising a first work component (178) and a second work component (176). The work components (176, 178) are coupled together through a toggle lock procedure formed as part of the process. The two resultant work components (176, 178) which form the end product (220) are simultaneously formed, thereby providing significant advantages with respect to work cycle time to produce the resultant product, relative to the time required when individual work components are sequentially produced through the use of mechanical operations to which a first work component is processed, and then formation of a second work component is processed.

Abstract: A clamp head including an arched body having upper and lower faces, and opposing unequal length arms. The body further has a through aperture for a bolt or like threaded fastener extending between the upper and lower faces, the through aperture tapering outwardly through the body in the direction of the lower face. The arms comprise a reaction arm having at its distal end a curved reaction face and a clamping arm having at its distal end a curved clamping face. The curved reaction face has a first edge that is proximal to the reaction face and a second edge that is distal to the reaction face, wherein the radius of curvature of the reaction face increases in the direction of the second edge.

Abstract: A jig device holding a work piece is used with a milling machine that cuts from the work piece a prosthesis having a surface essentially free of defects. The jig device is inserted repeatedly into the machine in the same predetermined location, even upon inverting the jig device. This maintains the spatial relationship between the jig device and milling so, at start up, they are always in the same exact spatial relationship. The milling machine partially cuts through a first side of the work piece to form in the work piece a cavity having a surface part corresponding to at least a portion of the prosthesis being made. The jig device is then removed from the machine, inverted and reinserted into the machine at the same predetermined location. A support material is placed in the cavity prior to reinserting the jig device. Upon reinserting the jig device, the machine precisely cuts through an opposed side of the work piece to form within the work piece a prosthesis having a surface essentially free of defects.

Abstract: A die pressing plate including a main body, an adjusting groove, and a main through hole, each of the left or right surface of the main through hole has at least one guiding groove; a lower cushion block having a top curve surface; and an upper cushion block having a lower curve surface for engaging the top curve surface of the lower cushion block, at least one extension portion protruding away from the lower curve surface, the at least one extension portion having two blocking portions, the blocking portions of the at least one extension portion engage the at least one guiding groove, the at least one extension portion extends elastically when the blocking portion slide downwardly, and the blocking portion is blocked by the bottom surface of the main body. The die pressing plate is simple in structure, fast and convenient to assemble and use, and low in cost.

Abstract: The table saw mill trolley rolls on rails. A log holder is pivotally attached to the trolley for pivotal movement about first and second axes. A support is fixed to the holder. A log tensioner and log indexer are attached to the support. Centering pins on the tensioner and indexer engage log ends. The trolley supports a log with an indexing shaft axis transverse to the blade axis. A first slot is cut in the log. The log is pivoted about the first axis and the trolley is returned to the start. The log is rotated about the second axis and then pivoted about the first axis to support by the trolley. A second slot that intersects the first slot is cut forming a first log flat surface.

Abstract: A clamping cutting guide to assist a carpenter in performing various wood techniques comprises a guide plate, a pair of guide rods, and a spring-loaded clamping portion. The guide rods extend perpendicularly downward along side areas and are inserted into respective springs to provide a clamping force to the stationary guide plate and a mobile clamping plate. The cutting guide also comprises a pair of pivoting handles open the clamp portions during loading/unloading of a desired object to be cut, thereby allowing a user to operate the guide using a single hand.

Abstract: A woodworking machining apparatus includes a bed, a machining assembly, a driving mechanism and a clamping mechanism. The clamping mechanism is mounted on the bed and is movable relative to the machining assembly. The clamping mechanism has a height adjuster and a holding adjuster. The height adjuster includes a height adjusting base, a sliding rod, first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, a height adjusting lever and a stabilizing board for stably lifting the holding adjuster. The holding adjuster includes a holding base, two clamping sheets and a holding lever for keeping a wood workpiece in a middle of the holding adjuster. The wood workpiece is clamped between the clamping sheets and is lifted by the height adjuster. Therefore, an axis of the wood workpiece can be aligned with the machining assembly.

Abstract: A planer clamp assembly includes a pair of side rails, a pair of clamps having at least one hole and at least one bar. The bar is configured to be secured between the pair of side rails. Each of the holes included in the pair of clamps are configured to slidably accept the bar thereby allowing the pair of clamps to slide freely about the bar between the pair of side rails.

Abstract: A saw guide system for securing a panel and providing a guide for a saw to cut a straight line across the panel includes a sawhorse being positioned on a support surface. A first rail is coupled to a top plate of the sawhorse. The first rail supports the panel when the panel is positioned on the sawhorse. A support mount is attached to the first rail. A second rail is pivotally coupled to the first rail by the support mount. The second rail is vertically spaced from the first rail to allow the panel to be placed on the first rail. The second rail is pivoted towards the first rail to position the panel between the second rail and the first rail. The second rail is abutted by a saw to maintain a straight cut across the panel when the saw is used to cut the panel.

Abstract: Various example embodiments are disclosed. According to one example embodiment, a router table may comprise a table top, a mounting can, a sleeve, and an adjustment mechanism. The table top may have an aperture and a plurality of support members; the support members may be configured to support the table top. The mounting can may be attachable to the table top in a vicinity of the aperture. The sleeve may be engaged to the mounting can, and may be configured to receive a router and to position a router bit of the router along an axis extending through the aperture. The adjustment mechanism may be configured to move the sleeve within the mounting can and relative to the table top to thereby move the router along the axis and position the router bit at one of a plurality of positions relative to the table top.

Abstract: An apparatus for straight-lining construction material comprises an extension coupled to a rip fence and a carrier assembly coupled to the top of the extension, in which the carrier assembly travels along the extension to deliver the material to a saw blade. The carrier assembly comprises a sled, a plurality of clamp assemblies and a guide, the sled and the plurality of adjustable clamp assemblies coupled to the guide. The guide has a recess receiving the extension. Each one of the plurality of clamp assemblies secures the material in position.
