Abstract: A locking device includes a locking arm movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locking device additionally includes a shaft that engages the locking arm so as to move the locking arm between the locked and the unlocked position. The locking device further includes a key-driven actuator configured to rotate the shaft. The locking device also includes a motor-driven assembly which engages and rotates the shaft. The motor-driven assembly includes a motor, a rotatable screw, and a gear. The motor-driven assembly also includes a clutch which engages the shaft upon rotation of the gear. The clutch includes a first pawl configured to be actuated when the gear rotates in a first direction and a second pawl configured to be actuated when the gear rotates in a second direction, where the first and second pawls are configured to disengage with the shaft when the rotatable screw is stationary.

Abstract: An adjustable door hinge that includes a rack and pinion gear set that is adapted to adjust hinge alignment relative to a door frame/case. As the pinion gear is rotated, a set of gear racks acts as a set of tapered wedges that change the alignment of the hinge relative to the door frame/case. Once the desired alignment of the hinge is reached, hinge mounting screws can be tightened to releasably couple the assembly in the proper alignment/location.

Abstract: A power unit is disclosed that includes a first surface with one or more power outlets, and a second surface angularly disposed with respect to the first surface. The second surface has one or more universal serial bus (USB) ports, and a power switch disposed thereon. The angled nature of the second surface provides ease of access to the USB port(s) and power switch.

Abstract: An electronic torque wrench has inner and outer telescoping housing portions and a battery tray assembly telescopically receivable in the inner housing portion and a bezel assembly receivable in an aperture in the outer housing portion and interconnected with the housing portions and the battery support assembly by a single fastener. The bezel assembly carries torque measuring circuitry.

Abstract: An electronic torque wrench has a lever arm pivotally coupled to a head member which is adapted for coupling to an associated fastener for rotation therewith about the rotational axis thereof, a torque sensing device being disposed on the head member for movement therewith relative to the lever arm. Different embodiments are provided for different degrees of relative angular movement between the head member and the lever arm.

Abstract: An electronic torque wrench has inner and outer telescoping housing portions and a battery tray assembly telescopically receivable in the inner housing portion and a bezel assembly receivable in an aperture in the outer housing portion and interconnected with the housing portions and the battery support assembly by a single fastener. The bezel assembly carries torque measuring circuitry including a microcontroller, and a four-key pad including arrow keys for incrementing and decrementing a preset torque level at any time, an on/zero key and a units key for toggling among plural different units of torque measurement. The preset torque level is displayed until torque is applied or a key is pressed and can be changed and displayed at anytime.

Abstract: There is illustrated an electrically insulating hand tool having a shaft that is hollow along its entire length, a work-engaging insert received in one end of the shaft, and an electrically insulating handle connected to an opposite end of the shaft. The shaft has a unitary one-piece construction and is made from a composite material.

Abstract: A wheeled, manually propelled vehicle with vertical support structure has an ergonomic handle attached to the support structure, the handle having a central section extending substantially horizontally in use and inclined sections which incline downwardly from the opposite ends of the central section and respectively terminate in curved end sections which curve toward the support structure and are integral for attachment plates for attachment to the support structure. The inclined sections facilitate grasping of the handle with an ergonomic arm position when a user is pushing the vehicle and facilitate maneuvering the vehicle around corners.
