  • Publication number: 20230417271
    Abstract: A precision adjustable length rod end assembly is disclosed and provides a fastener for mechanical assemblies that eliminates the need for a separate secondary locking device. The device includes a connecting rod, an end connector or rod end, and a lock nut assembly. The end connector threadably engages the connecting rod. The lock nut assembly engages both the end connector and the connecting rod. The threaded engagement between the end connector and the connecting rod enables the rod-end assembly to be adjusted to a precise working length (e.g., as measured along the central longitudinal axis). The lock nut assembly maintains the precision-adjusted working length of the rod-end assembly even when the rod-end assembly is exposed to harsh operating conditions, such as exposure to extreme vibrations.

  • Publication number: 20230421561
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing customer resource telemetry and use as a service. In various embodiments, a computing system might receive, from a user, a request to access at least one network-accessible resource associated with a customer of a service provider, the user being unassociated and unrelated with the customer; might identify at least one of a user identification, a company, or a class of user associated with the user; might determine whether at least one resource record associated with the customer indicates that the user has permission to access the at least one network-accessible resource, based on the identification. If so, the computing system might provide the user with access to the at least one network-accessible resource associated with the customer. If not, the computing system might deny, to the user, access to the at least one network-accessible resource associated with the customer.

  • Publication number: 20230414894
    Abstract: Improved embodiments of the disclosure provide a universal sealing apparatus for one or more cannulas. The apparatus includes a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion. The first and second portions are configured to removably adhere directly or indirectly to a nose. The third portion is coupled to the first and second portions. The third portion removably couples to one or more cannulas and places a force upon a base of flared portions of the one or more cannulas when the first and second portions are adhered to the nose. The force maintains a fluid seal of the one or more cannulas within one or more respective nostrils of the nose. The third portion includes a reinforcement. In one configuration, the reinforcement is angled. In another configuration, the reinforcement has a hinge to allow easy adjustment on a nose. In yet another configuration, the reinforcement has slitted holes for cannulas. In yet another configuration, third portion is removably coupleable to the first and second portions.
