Patent number: 9821518Abstract: A platform assembly has a rigid support with an array of threaded passages extending therethrough; threaded posts are engaged in the threaded passages and extend above the rigid support by a distance adjusted by rotation of each threaded post in its associated threaded passage. Manually-adjusted dog point screws can provide the threaded posts, and self-locking nuts can provide the threaded passages. A platform of smooth, slightly flexible material extends over the threaded posts and has an array of mounting elements that magnetically attach to the threaded posts to hold the platform tightly against the end of each post. Adjusting the positions of the threaded posts serves to adjust the precise position and flatness of the platform surface relative to the rigid support, and with respect to a print head of a 3D printer in which the rigid support is incorporated.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2015Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Inventor: Daniel A. Bloom

Patent number: 9675045Abstract: A tag hanger has a strap which can pass around a support structure, such as a D-ring on an animal collar, and a retainer assembly that clamps one or more tags to one end of the strap, restraining their motion to prevent noise caused by the tags jangling together. The other end of the strap attaches to the retainer assembly to secure the tag holder to the support structure. A blocking element can be included on the strap to prevent contact between the tags and the support structure. The retainer assembly can employ a hex-head bolt that serves as a base element and a threaded retainer shaft that passes through a retainer passage in the strap and through hanger passages in the tags; a nut threadably engaging the bolt can then serve as a clamping element to secure the tags to the strap.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2016Date of Patent: June 13, 2017Inventors: Daniel A. Bloom, Jennifer Posthumus

Patent number: 8215212Abstract: An on-vehicle disk brake lathe has a motor connected to a right-angle gearbox mounted to a body of the lathe, the gearbox in turn driving a spindle shaft through a flexible drive linkage such as a belt or chain. The spindle shaft extends parallel to a gearbox output shaft, and both are normal to an axis of rotation of the motor. The flexible drive linkage can be tensioned by adjustably mounting the gearbox to the lathe body or by use of an adjustably positioned tensioning element. A cover can enclose the flexible drive linkage. The separate gearbox allows the use of durable bearings for the spindle shaft, and allows these bearings to be spaced apart to provide a high degree of stability. The modular structure of the resulting lathe simplifies fabrication and repair, and allows use of a modular body for the lathe.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2009Date of Patent: July 10, 2012Assignee: Pro-Cut Licensing Company, LLCInventors: Daniel A. Bloom, Christopher L. Greenwald
