  • Apparatus for connection and sealing of utility connections
    Patent number: 11815200
    Abstract: Pipe connector for coupling a first-end pipe and a second-end pipe that includes intermediary attachment connectors for each of the first-end and second-end pipes. The attachment connectors include O-ring slots machined into an external perimeter surface and a movable sleeve that engages with the intermediary attachment connectors to form a seal between the O-ring slots and an internal perimeter surface of the sleeve.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 5, 2021
    Date of Patent: November 14, 2023
    Inventor: Peter Baruch Mueller
  • Method and apparatus for tightening a threaded fastener connection in concealed walls and/or floors
    Patent number: 11320038
    Abstract: A threaded fastener actuator that includes a worm-gear used to transfer rotational power to an impeller gear. The impeller gear includes a polygonal channel for receiving an actuator feature included in a threaded fastener. As the worm-gear is rotated, the impeller gear rotates about a vertical movement axis, which causes the threaded fastener contained in polygonal channel to also rotate and engage with a corresponding threaded coupler.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TIGHTENING A THREADED FASTENER CONNECTION IN CONCEALED WALLS AND/OR FLOORS
    Publication number: 20200325978
    Abstract: A threaded fastener actuator that includes a worm-gear used to transfer rotational power to an impeller gear. The impeller gear includes a polygonal channel for receiving an actuator feature included in a threaded fastener. As the worm-gear is rotated, the impeller gear rotates about a vertical movement axis, which causes the threaded fastener contained in polygonal channel to also rotate and engage with a corresponding threaded coupler.
