Abstract: Bellcrank mounting assemblies for railcars are disclosed. In some embodiments, the bellcrank mounting assemblies include a bellcrank base attached to an underside of the railcar and a bellcrank mounting bracket removably attached to the bellcrank base. The mounting bracket includes opposed end portions with axially-aligned openings to receive a bellcrank or a sheave wheel.

Abstract: A soft tissue repair device. The device includes an inserter having a distal portion, a first anchor carried externally onto the distal portion, a second anchor carried externally onto the distal portion, and a flexible strand coupling the first and second anchors and forming an adjustable knotless loop.

Abstract: A fibrous tissue repair device includes first and second tubular anchors having corresponding longitudinal passages. The tissue repair device includes corresponding first and second inserters. Each inserter has a shaft with a distal portion received in the longitudinal passage of the corresponding tubular anchor. A flexible strand couples the first and second anchors.

Abstract: A coupling member for a blind mate fluid coupling includes a housing and a valve body that is self-centering and alignable relative to the housing. The valve body may include at least two radial shoulder portions that are configured to engage at least two corresponding radial abutments of the housing to improve self-centering when in a decoupled state. An engagement member, such as a socket, may be provided in the housing to engage a radial shoulder of the valve body with a concave interface to enhance the misalignment compensating and/or self-centering functionality. The engagement member may be free to float radially relative to the housing to further enhance such effects. A compensator that urges an engagement member against a shoulder of the valve body may be provided to compensate for misalignment and/or provide self-centering in both a decoupled and mated state.

The valve body may include at least two radial shoulder portions or abutments that are configured to engage at least two corresponding radial abutments of the housing to improve self-centering when in a decoupled state. A biasing member may urge the valve body abutments against the corresponding housing abutments to compensate for misalignment and/or provide self-centering in both a decoupled and mated state.

Abstract: A soft tissue repair assembly. The assembly includes a flexible member having first and second ends, and a strand passing through the flexible member. The strand has first and second strand ends extending through the flexible member, such that pulling at least one of the first and second strand ends changes the flexible member from a first shape suitable for insertion through soft tissue to a second shape suitable for securely lodging the soft tissue repair assembly relative to soft tissue.

Abstract: A multi-coupling component (20) includes a plurality of fluid couplers (22, 24, 26, 28) that are fluidly connected to a plurality of corresponding fluid flow pathways (80, 84), and a case drain fluid coupler (32) that is fluidly connected to a low pressure drain fluid pathway (88); and a pressure relief mechanism (40) that is configured to be moved between a disconnected state, a partially connected state, and a fully connected state. The pressure relief mechanism is configured such that in the partially connected state the fluid flow pathways and drain fluid pathway are fluidly connected to perform a pressure relief function, and in the disconnected state and the connected state the drain fluid pathway is isolated from the fluid flow pathways. The pressure relief mechanism includes a pressure relief button, wherein the pressure relief button is depressed to move the pressure relief mechanism from the disconnected state to the partially connected state and to the connected state.
