  • Patent number: 10286405
    Abstract: An air cleaning device for removing aerosol particles from an air stream comprising: a particle charger comprising a housing and an electrode arrangement therein for generating air ions in the air stream, the particle charger having a particle charging zone within which, in use, aerosol particles in the air stream are electrically charged via collision with the air ions; a filter for precipitating electrically charged aerosol particles from the air stream moving through the device; and an air mover, comprising a casing, for moving the air stream through the device; wherein the particle charger and the air mover are provided upstream of the filter; and wherein the housing of the particle charger is hermetically sealed to the casing of the air mover in the direction of air flow through the device, such that the particle charger and the air mover are intimately coupled together, whereby all air entering the device has to pass through both the particle charger and the air mover.

  • Patent number: 9145908
    Abstract: A blind fastener adapter for a conventional screw-threaded nut and screw comprises a collar and a segmented ring over the collar, the ring and collar having a tapered interface wherein relative axial movement results in a change of diameter of the ring. The adapter further includes a spring adapted to bias the collar and ring into mutual engagement; the collar and ring include means to prevent substantial relative angular movement thereof. The collar is adapted for engagement by a blind side head of the screw in use, and the ring is adapted for blind side engagement of the perimeter of a hole.

  • Patent number: 8459624
    Abstract: The present invention provides clamp head comprising an arched body having upper and lower faces, a vertex and opposing unequal length arms. The body is further provided with a through aperture for a bolt or like threaded fastener which extends between the upper and lower faces in the region of the vertex. The aperture in the upper face is oval and tapers outwardly through the body in the direction of the lower face. The arms comprise a reaction arm having at its distal end a reaction face and a clamping arm having at its distal end a clamping face, the reaction and clamping faces being provided with respective formations. The formations of the reaction arm extend in a direction which is substantially transverse to the direction of the formations of the clamping arm.
