  • Publication number: 20240074421
    Abstract: A popping cork holding device includes an elongated main body having a top surface, a bottom surface, a front surface and a back surface. A plurality of holes are positioned along the top surface and terminate into shoulders located inside the main body. Each of the holes include a shape and a size for receiving a bead located on a popping cork. A plurality of channels extend through the top surface, the bottom surface, the front surface and a portion of each hole and shoulder. Each of the channels includes a width for receiving the elongated rod portion of a popping cork. A plurality of individual popping corks are stored by the device by positioning a portion of the rod through a channel and lowering one of the beads into a hole in order to suspend the remainder of the popping cork beneath the bottom surface of the holder.

  • Publication number: 20220250229
    Abstract: A driver attachment device includes a planar base portion having an upper surface, a lower surface, and an aperture extending through the upper and lower surfaces. A gripping surface extends downward from the lower surface of the base portion and function to prevent lateral or rotational movement of the device when secured to the drill via a screw positioned through the aperture. A pair of elongated resilient arms extend upward from the upper surface of the base portion along the pair of side surfaces. The resilient arms including a plurality of sections and bends that form a central receptacle for receiving and storing a drill bit driver. The central receptacle including a generally hexagonal shape having a dimension that is complementary to the industry standard dimensions of a commercially available drill bit driver. A plurality of magnetic elements is provided along the resilient arms and function to magnetically engage an inserted drill bit driver to prevent lateral movement of the driver.

  • Publication number: 20050134002
    Abstract: A cartridge seal is co-axially secured within the circular aperture of a back plate bolted to a pump housing. Annular recesses are provided around inner and outer sides of the back plate, surrounding the circular aperture. The cartridge-type seal includes a stationary gland assembly and a rotatable shaft collar assembly. The inner side of the gland assembly includes a taper bore surrounding the pump drive shaft, and a circumferential lip. The lip nests within the inner annular recess of the back plate. The outer side of the gland assembly includes a circumferential groove. The collar assembly is locked to the drive shaft by means of setscrews. A snap-ring within the circumferential groove of the gland assembly is located within the outer side recess of the back plate. The snap-ring precludes axial movement of the gland assembly, while allowing quick removal and replacement of the cartridge seal.
