Abstract: A hose accessory includes a handle, a shaft slidably received in the handle, and a flexible conduit located within handle and shaft. The flexible conduit may be arranged to carry fluids between a first end of the hose accessory and a second end of the hose accessory. A lock is provided to secure the shaft in a fixed position relative to the handle. The lock may include a locking pin biased towards a locked position. The shaft may include first and second channels. The first channel receives at least a portion of the locking pin when the locking pin is in a locked position. The conduit extends through the second channel that isolates and separates the conduit from the locking pin.

Abstract: Trigger activated tools are provided that have one or more activation lockouts. The activation lockouts include electrical resets, variable position lockouts, mechanical lockouts, shield lockouts, and any combinations thereof.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for dispensing a rag are disclosed. The dispenser includes a housing within which a plurality of rags are disposed. The plurality of rags are arranged in a stack. In some embodiments, the stack of rags is disposed in a bag, and then placed in the housing. In other embodiments, the stack of rags is placed on a dispensing plate in the housing. The dispensing plate is moveable between one or more vertical positions in the housing. The rags may be hemless or edgeless and formed via ultrasonic cutting.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for supplying air to an interior of an athletic bag and/or to a piece of athletic equipment in the athletic bag (e.g., onto or into the piece of athletic equipment) is disclosed. The athletic bag includes a flow vent attached to a first wall of the bag and a hose attached (e.g., removably attachable) to the flow vent.

Abstract: An electronic board including an area forming a BGA type electronic component backing, and an electric heating resistor which supplies an amount of heat for soldering the component onto the plate is disclosed. The board includes a plurality of conductive layers alternating with electrically insulating layers, the resistor forming one of the conductive layers immediately underlying the surface layer. The board may also include a thermal drain. A facility for implementing the method is also disclosed. It allows for an electronic board to be repaired through replacing defective members without risking to unsolder or to damage adjacent members.

Abstract: This invention is related to an electronic board comprising an area forming a BGA type electronic component backing, an electric heating resistor at right angle to said area, said resistor being able to supply an amount of heat for soldering the component onto the plate, characterized in that the board comprises a plurality of conductive layers alternating with electrically insulating layers, said resistor forming one of the conductive layers immediately underlying the surface layer. The board comprises, if need be, a thermal drain. This invention is also related to a facility for implementing the method. It also allows for an electronic board to be repaired through replacing defective members without risking to unsolder or to damage adjacent members.

Abstract: An electrical connector crimp tool including a first crimp jaw section; and a second crimp jaw section pivotably connected to the first crimp jaw section. The second crimp jaw section includes a center crimp force axis directed towards an electrical connector during crimping. The second crimp jaw section includes a crimp groove for directly contacting the electrical connector during crimping. The crimp groove has a center crimp path axis which is angled relative to the center crimp force axis.

Abstract: A hand-held, battery-powered, hydraulically-actuated tool including a frame forming a tool longitudinal axis; a battery offset from the tool longitudinal axis; and located along the tool longitudinal axis a motor connected to the battery; a hydraulic fluid pump connected to the motor, such as by a transmission; a ram movably connected to the frame and adapted to be moved relative to the frame by hydraulic fluid pumped by the hydraulic fluid pump; and a working head adapted to be actuated by the ram. The tool includes a main section situated in an in-line configuration along the tool longitudinal axis. A center longitudinal axis of the battery is offset from the tool longitudinal axis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hot-air supply system for an aircraft equipped with at least one engine (2) with a fan (3) and compressors (4). According to the invention, the regulating devices (14, 15, 16) intended to regulate the flows of hot air and of cold air sent by the pipes (10 and 11) to the heat exchanger (12) are pneumatic, controlled electrically, and are controlled by a centralized management device (24).

Abstract: A protection arrangement for an electronic device sensitive to electromagic radiation comprises a single printed circuit board which is disposed within a metal casing so that it passes perpendicularly through a metal partition separating an upstream zone in which electromagnetic fields prevail from a screened downstream zone, the board thus having a first part situated in the upstream zone and a second part, which is intended to carry the electronic device, situated in the downstream zone. Electrical signals are conveyed from the upstream zone to the downstream zone by means of conductive lines printed on at least one inner layer of the printed circuit board, and the board is provided with means for filtering the electrical signals comprising surface-mounted components in the vicinity of the metal partition and capacitive elements integrated in the printed circuit board where it passes through the partition.

Abstract: An artificial valve remotely placeable in a blood vessel without major surgery to supplant the function of a malfunctioning natural valve including an expansible check valve remotely placed in a constricted configuration through the vessel and a remotely removable constraint for selective expansion of the check valve for sealing engagement thereof within the walls of the vessel at the desired location.
