  • Patent number: 10857600
    Abstract: Embodiments herein provide drill hole location transfer between remote components. One embodiment is an apparatus for replicating drill holes of a first workpiece on a second workpiece remotely located from the first workpiece. The apparatus includes an interface to receive coordinate data of first alignment pins installed to first template holes of a first drill plate, and a receptacle to receive a second drill plate having second template holes that match a pattern of the first templates holes of the first drill plate. A pin setting device moves a reference member in a plane over the receptacle, and positions the reference member with respect to the second drill plate based on the coordinate data of the first alignment pins, thus indicating locations within the second template holes to position drill bushings for replicating the first holes of the first workpiece on the second workpiece.

  • Patent number: 6423862
    Abstract: A method for making a vinyl carbonate represented by the formula (I): CH2═CHOC(O)X1R1  (I) wherein X1 is oxygen or sulfur and R1 is a substituted or an unsubstituted aliphatic alkyl, aryl, aryl alkyl, olefinic, vinyl, or cycloaliphatic group comprises: (a) reacting a compound represented by the formula (II): X2C(O)X1R1  (II)  wherein X2 is a halogen other than fluorine, with a compound represented by the formula (III): M1-F  (III)  wherein M1 is selected from a Group IA metal, in the presence of a first phase transfer catalyst and a first organic solvent, to form a compound represented by the formula (IV): FC(O)X1R1;  (IV)  and (b) reacting a compound represented by the formula (IV) with a compound represented by the formula (V): CH2═CHOSi(R2)3  (V)  wherein R2 is a substituted or an unsubstituted aliphatic alkyl, aryl, aryl alkyl, olefinic, vinyl, or cycloaliphatic group, or any combination thereof, in the presence of
