Abstract: A die compatibility adaptor including a housing and a die cable extending outward from the housing and terminating at a die cable end engageable with a manufacturing die that includes a first proximity sensor configured to output a first proximity signal and a second proximity sensor configured to output a second proximity signal. The die compatibility adaptor further includes a direct cable receptacle communicatively coupled to the die cable, a duplicate cable receptacle, and one or more isolation relays positioned between and communicatively coupled to the duplicate cable receptacle and the die cable, the one or more isolation relays having a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the duplicate cable receptacle is communicatively coupled to the die cable.

Abstract: An adjustable field trimmer is provided, including a movable, wheeled carriage, a cutting unit pivotally mounted to the carriage and having combined drive system and a cutting head, a power head associated with the cutting unit for powering the cutting head, and a control system associated with the carriage and connected to the cutting unit so that the cutting unit is pivotable laterally relative to the carriage under operator control.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to improving the quality of electronic components suitable for use in vehicles such as Class 8 trucks. Vehicles such as Class 8 trucks are becoming more complex and using more electronic components, and so the likelihood of proper functionality and successful integration of such components must be ensured before being incorporated into a manufactured vehicle. Embodiments of the present disclosure ensure that suppliers can successfully manufacture the electronic components, and that the quality of the electronic components remains high for successful integration into the vehicle during manufacture.

Abstract: A drive gear for a generally cylindrical imaging component. The drive gear includes a body for engaging the generally cylindrical imaging component having an axis of rotation, a drive portion extending out from body along the axis of rotation, wherein the drive portion comprises a plurality of pillars and narrows towards the axis of rotation of the drive gear as the distance from the end surface increases outward.

Abstract: A trimmer head for a string trimmer mower, including a trimmer head housing having a string retention portion and a coupler portion rotatably attached to the string retention portion, the string retention portion having a first string retainer for releasably retaining a first cutting string. In addition, the string retention portion has a second string retainer for releasably retaining a second cutting string. The second string retainer is preferably circumferentially displaced on the string retention portion from the first string retainer. In a preferred embodiment, the first string retainer has a slidable clamp disposed in the interior and accessible from the exterior. The clamp is constructed and arranged for sliding relative to the base between a clamping position for selectively retaining the string in place through centrifugal force in the string retention portion, and a release position for user replacement of the first cutting string without tools.
