  • Publication number: 20230329377
    Abstract: Various examples are provided related to attachment of tape or strips of material along a seam of a garment or other material. In one example, among others, a robotic system includes a joining device that can attach a tape or strip of material across a seam, a loading system that can position material with the seam for attachment of the tape or strip of material, a seam feed system that can adjust positioning of the material for attachment, and a tape handling system that can supply the tape or strip of material to the joining head of the joining device for attachment across the seam. A tape handling system can include a tape joining assembly that can receive tape or strip of material from a current tape cartridge and bond it to the tape or strip of material clamped by the tape joining assembly.

  • Patent number: 11491612
    Abstract: An armorer tool system for distributing the applied torque over a very wide surface, associated with assembling and disassembling primarily the barrel and the lower receiver extension of an AR platform firearms, independently of the specifications of their barrel extension, lower receiver and upper receiver external features, and magazine well geometry; and methods of using the tools are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11460268
    Abstract: A detachable foregrip for long-barreled firearms with a plurality of ergonomic grip positions, allowing nimble changes of the supporting hand position without changing the position of the device in relation with the firearm or reconfiguring the foregrip; as deemed necessary by the user based on different situational uses or mission or purposes, the user's stance, preferences, unique personal and current physical characteristics; any of the available 9 distinct positions reduces strain and fatigue by means of the proper posture of wrist, elbow and shoulder, and allowing the use of the simplest fatigue relief that is to change the wrist posture without losing weapon control; therefore, improving shooting accuracy, consistency, weapon control, recoil mitigation and endurance; and enables a safe and effective Quick Draw Carry System that improves survivability, deployment, mobility and endurance, and ensures a rested firing hand that always has access to the secondary weapon; ultimately, easing the training path

  • Publication number: 20200109912
    Abstract: A detachable foregrip for long-barreled firearms that enables the weapon to be held up by the shooter's supporting hand in one of the multiple ergonomic grip positions optimized for all missions from long range shooting to highly dynamic CQC. The foregrip, subject of this patent, allows supporting hand to be quickly changed to any of the 13 distinct positions to reduce strain and fatigue by means of the proper posture of wrist, elbow and shoulder, and allowing the use of the simplest fatigue relief that is to change the wrist posture without losing weapon control; therefore, improving shooting accuracy, consistency, weapon control, recoil mitigation and endurance. Moreover, the foregrip enables a safe and effective Quick Draw Carry System that improves survivability, deployment, mobility and endurance, and ensures a rested firing hand that always has access to the secondary weapon; ultimately, easing the training path implementing simple and efficient methods.
