  • Patent number: 8281536
    Abstract: A wall fixture positionable between interior and exterior walls of a structure and including a first member having a flange extending from a web, the flange including mounting locations spaced along a length of the flange for supporting fasteners securable at a plurality of locations spaced along the interior wall and a second member having a flange extending from a web. The second member can be adjustably securable to the first member such that a distance between exterior sides of the flanges is variable. The flange of the second member can include mounting locations spaced along the flange for supporting fasteners securable at a plurality of locations spaced along the exterior wall. The web of one of the first and second members can define apertures sized to receive at least one of plumbing, conduit and wires.

  • Publication number: 20120067000
    Abstract: A frame assembly for supporting a wall panel includes a stud having an end portion. The stud is configured to engage and support the wall panel. The frame assembly also includes a track member having a generally U-shaped cross-section defined by a base and two sidewalls. The track member defines a longitudinal axis. The frame assembly further includes an engagement member coupled to the base of the track member and extending parallel to the longitudinal axis. The engagement member defines a slot that receives the end portion of the stud to support the stud.

  • Patent number: 5670073
    Abstract: A water cooled gas metal arc welding (MIG) gun which is provided with a water cooling system for the gun barrel that introduces the coolant water at the bottom of the barrel to create a coolant water flow through the gun that does not allow the coolant water to stagnate and heat up. The gun includes a water cooled shielding gas cup on the lower end that ensures coolant water flow therethrough, and provides metal thickness at the end of the cup which prevents physical abuse of the cup from affecting the guns' performance. The gun has a shielding gas delivery system which ensures good shielding gas flow and allows for replaceable shielding gas diffusers.
