Abstract: A clamp pin tool holder for clamping an insert in a tool holder includes a bore for receiving a clamp pin and a bore for receiving a lock screw. The clamp pin includes a cam portion with angled surfaces. The lock screw is rotatably mounted to the bore of the tool holder and includes angled surfaces for engaging the angled surfaces of the clamp pin. When the lock screw is rotated in one direction, one angled surface on the lock screw and one angled surface on the clamp pin engage each other an acts as a conical wedge to cause the clamp pin to move relative to the lock screw. When the lock screw is rotated in the opposite direction, another angled surface on the lock screw engages a different angled surface on the clamp pin in a similar manner to cause the clamp pin to move in an opposite direction.

Abstract: An apparatus for rotating a threaded tightening device includes a guide and an anvil utilized to impact a lug on the threaded tightening device to rotate the tightening device onto or off of a threaded member. The guide has a frame with a support sleeve attached thereto. A reciprocating device is received in and is supported by the support sleeve. The anvil is attached to the reciprocating device. When the reciprocating device is received in and is supported by the support sleeve, actuation of the reciprocating device will cause the anvil to repeatedly impact a lug to rotate the threaded tightening device in the desired direction.

Abstract: A telecommunications network for linking a plurality of premises, comprising, typically, a fiber optic or coaxial cable, and a plurality of electrical power cables each connected to a respective one of the premises for supplying mains electrical power thereto. Each of the power cables is also connected to the fiber optic or coaxial cable so that telecommunications signals are transmissible between the fiber optic or coaxial cable and each of the power cables. A telecommunications signal is transmissible to the plurality of premises by being transmitted along the fiber optic or coaxial cable and subsequently along the respective power cable of each of the premises.

Abstract: A communications apparatus is adapted for use with a mains electricity transmission and/or distribution network. The communications apparatus includes a signal transmission and/or reception means, and frequency conversion means for converting the frequency of a signal transmitted or received by the signal transmission and/or reception means to a frequency which facilitates improved propagation of the signal on the network. Preferably the signal transmission and/or reception means is adapted to operate according to a telephony standard with uses a relatively high carrier frequency (e.g. CT2), and the frequency conversion means is usable to covert a signal having a relatively high carrier frequency (e.g. CT2) and the frequency conversion means is usable to convert a signal having a relatively high carrier frequency to a signal having a lower carrier frequency.

Abstract: A method for installing a compressed natural gas tank assembly in an automobile. The method includes connecting the tank assembly to an arm, rotating the tank assembly about an axis a predetermined angular amount, inserting the tank assembly into the automobile, and rotating the tank assembly about the axis in a second, opposite direction the predetermined amount. The tank assembly is disposed over a desired location in the automobile and placed in engagement with the desired location.

Abstract: The present invention provides an overhead balanced electricity distribution and/or power transmission network (1201), the network including input means (1301) for the input onto the network of a telecommunications signal having a carrier frequency greater than approximately 1 MHz from an unbalanced source and output means (1301) for removing said telecommunications signal from the network, wherein said input means and said output means provide impedance matching between said network and said source. Thus, propagation of HF communication signals over such networks is optimised, and the input and output means ("conditioning units") provide for interconnection between a source e.g. a relatively low impedance unbalanced HF (possibly coaxial) termination and a high impedance balanced OH EDN, and provide efficient unbalanced to balanced impedance transformation and termination.

Abstract: To compensate considerable movements between a floating unit and a seabed structure which are interconnected by a fluid line, the invention proposes to embody this fluid line in an upper catenary and a lower portion. The upper catenary is on the one hand supported by the floating structure and on the other hand by a subsurface buoy. The lower portion is on the one hand supported by the subsurface buoy and on the other hand connected to the seabed structure. This lower portion is provided with buoyancy beads. In this way it is possible that the floating structure may be displaced a considerable distance relative to the seabed structure. In addition, the system can withstand considerable environmental loading. This means that the connection between the seabed structure and floating unit can be maintained even under unfavorable conditions.
