Abstract: A method of repairing a chain assembly involves aligning bores of inner and outer chain links and inserting a thread end of a pin through the bores. Then, a nut is threadingly engaged with the threads of the pin, the nut is tightened nut on the threads to create an interference fit between the pin and a plate of the outer chain link at the bore of the outer chain link, and the nut is further tightened on the threads until an axial stop blocks further advancement of the nut along the thread end of the pin. Additionally, a kit for repair of a chain assembly system includes a chain link defining a bore, a pin that can form an interference fit with the bore, a nut, and an axial stop that blocks further advancement of the nut along a thread end of the pin when the pin contacts the axial stop.

Abstract: A chain assembly system can include an inner chain link and an outer chain link. The inner chain link and the outer chain link can define a pair of bores. The chain assembly system can include a pin including a head end that defines a head, and a thread end opposite the head end having threads. The chain assembly system can include a nut configured to threadingly engage the threads of the thread end of the pin and an axial stop that is configured to block further advancement of the nut along the thread end of the pin towards the head end of the pin when the pin contacts the axial stop.

Abstract: A method of repairing a chain can include aligning a bore of an outer chain link with a bore of an inner chain link, inserting a pin through the aligned bores, the pin having a thread end opposite a head end, engaging a multi-jackbolt tensioner with the thread end of the pin, the multi-jackbolt tensioner having a plurality of fasteners, advancing each of the plurality of fasteners to press on the outer chain link, and forming an interference fit between the pin and the outer chain link at the bore of the outer chain link from the advancing of the fasteners.

Abstract: A dust collection assembly for a computer numerical control (CNC) cutting machine includes an adapter configured to couple to an arm of the CNC cutting machine and a head telescopically coupled to the adapter by a plurality of nested members. The CNC cutting machine includes the arm supporting a spindle and a tool holder coupled for co-rotation with the spindle. Each of the plurality of nested members are collapsible relative to each other. The head is movable between an extended position in which the nested members are configured to surround the tool holder and a tool bit, and a retracted position in which at least some of the nested members are telescopically received in the adapter. The head defines an inlet fluidly connected to the plurality of nested members when the head is at least in the extended position. The inlet is configured to fluidly connect to a vacuum.

Abstract: A bone implant includes a bore extending entirely through the bone implant. The bone implant also includes a light source to emit light onto bone adjacent the bone implant to stimulate bone growth and/or reduce bone loss.

Abstract: A bone implant includes a rod having an aperture extending entirely through the rod. The aperture is to receive a fastener to couple the rod to a bone of a patient. The bone implant also includes a light source disposed on the rod. The light source is to emit light onto a portion of the bone adjacent the rod to at least one of stimulate bone growth or reduce bone loss.
