Abstract: A wiper blade includes blade rubber, a holder body, and a clip. The clip is pivotally connected to the holder body. The clip has an elastic piece and an engagement protrusion. The engagement protrusion engages with an engagement hole provided in a wiper arm. The elastic piece section has a long piece section, a turned-back section, a first bending axis, and a second bending axis. The long piece section extends through a position to a side of the engagement protrusion. The turned-back section extends so as to change the direction of the long piece section in order to connect the front end of the long piece section to the engagement protrusion. The first bending axis and the second bending axis extend so that the engagement protrusion is located between the first bending axis and the second bending axis.

Abstract: A knife includes a knife body having two liners and a blade positioned between the two liners. The knife further includes two scales, each scale being removably coupled to one of the two liners. Each scale is configured for use as a tool separate from the knife body when removed from the knife body. A bottle opener may be formed in the knife body.

Abstract: An abrasive media blaster assembly includes a container to hold at least one abrasive media, an external air source to provide a compressed air supply, a reservoir to hold water and rust inhibitor solution and a venturi blaster gun. The venturi blaster gun comprises an exterior nozzle, a media blaster block and a trigger with a handle. The fittings in the media blaster block create a venturi effect and draw the water and rust inhibitor solution so as for it to mix with the abrasive media where the dustless blaster sprays the mix to remove surface finishes from a metal surface and simultaneously provides a rust inhibitor to the surface, thereby allowing the device to be capable of performing any one, two or all of dry media blasting, slurry blasting, and water blasting.

Abstract: A tool head for easy attachment and detachment to a handle is provided for configurations such as axes, picks, shovels, sledges, hatches, and hoes. The tool head includes two clamps, one clamp being threadingly engaged on a shaft that freely rotates within the tool head. To attach the tool head to a handle, the user rotates the shaft which moves the clamps together and compresses the handle there between first clamp moves towards a second clamp. To detach, the shaft is counter rotated thereby decompressing the handle. When detached from a handle, the clamps turn and nest in two cutouts within the tool head allowing for compact storage or packing. Integrally formed features that include scraper, blade, wrenches, gut hook, cord cutter, carabineer, and the like provide the user in the field needed tools when fashioning a handle from a sapling or stick.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an elongated windshield wiper blade includes providing a tandem wiper blade (1) made in one piece of an elastomeric material, which is composed of two wiper blades (2, 3) integrally joined together, and subsequently cutting the tandem wiper blade (1) so as to separate the two wiper blades (2, 3) each having a wiping head (4) facing away from a windshield to be wiped and a wiping lip (5) to be placed in abutment with a windshield to be wiped. The two wiper blades (2, 3) forming the tandem wiper blade (1) are integrally joined together at the location of their wiping heads (4) facing towards each other, wherein the tandem wiper blade (1) is cut into the two separate wiper blades (2, 3) along their wiping heads (4) facing towards each other.

Abstract: A power tong assembly includes a power tong and a speed limiting system operably coupled to the power tong. The power tong is configured to grip and rotate a tubular segment in a first direction to make-up a threaded connection with the tubular segment and in a second direction to break-out the threaded connection with the tubular segment. The speed limiting system is configured to selectively allow the power tong to rotate the tubular segment in one of the first direction and the second direction at a maximum speed while limiting the power tong to rotate the tubular segment in the other of the first direction and the second direction below the maximum speed.

Abstract: Socket tool for servicing fluid connectors. In one embodiment, a tool includes a body having a hollow recess at one end. The hollow recess has non-circular dimensions for rotating a head fitting of the fluid connector about an axis. The tool further includes a pin that mounts to a surface inside the hollow recess so that the pin is disposed in an axial direction along a center of the axis. The pin enters an aligned opening of a nozzle of the fluid connector and occupies a conduit space in the nozzle when the hollow recess is engaged with the head fitting of the fluid connector.

Abstract: A cleaning apparatus includes: an accommodation unit that accommodates a cleaning cloth; a drawing-out unit that draws out the cleaning cloth; a cleaning clot setting mechanism unit including an ascend/descend member that ascends and descend together with the cleaning cloth drawn out by the drawing-out unit; and a projection unit that upwardly projects as far as a position between an ascended position and a descended position of the ascend/descend member. When the ascend/descend member is located at the ascended position, the cleaning cloth can be drawn out, and when the ascend/descend member is located at the descended position, the projection unit engages the cleaning cloth, and a robot causes an optical device to be pressed against the cleaning cloth engaged by the projection unit, thereby cleaning the optical device.
