  • Publication number: 20240417191
    Abstract: A process and apparatus for handling a rigid sheet is disclosed. The process comprises engaging opposing faces of a sheet at its periphery with engagement means providing a second engagement means, movable relative to the first and engaging the sheet with the second engagement means. The sheet is then moved relative to the second engagement means whilst the sheet is engaged with the first engagement means and is then clamped. The sheet is then moved to a desired orientation or location whilst maintaining the first and second engagement means in fixed relative position. The process is useful in handling glass sheeting and in the production of multiple glazed units and on an insulating glass production line.

  • Patent number: 11605317
    Abstract: A sign frame is provided. In one aspect, the sign frame includes a first panel and a first coupling assembly. The first coupling assembly is integrally formed with the first panel. The sign frame includes a second panel and a second coupling assembly. The second coupling assembly is integrally formed with the second panel. The second coupling assembly is removably coupled to the first coupling assembly. The first panel operatively pivots with respect to the second panel, between a stowed position and a deployed position, about the first coupling assembly and the second coupling assembly that are removably coupled.

  • Publication number: 20220275593
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes a modular crash attenuator system including an array of attenuator segment pair assemblies. Each attenuator segment pair assembly includes a first attenuator segment and a second attenuator segment, a tensioning assembly configured to removably couple the first attenuator segment adjacent to the second attenuator segment, and a coupling assembly configured to removably couple the attenuator segment pair assembly to at least one other attenuator segment pair assembly. The crash attenuator system additionally includes a barrier attachment assembly disposed at a first end of the array and coupled to at least one attenuator segment pair and an end cap assembly disposed at a second end of the array, the second end being opposite the first end.

  • Patent number: 11427977
    Abstract: Barricade systems are provided. A barricade system includes a first handle recess, a first channel extending to the first handle recess, a first handle portion including a first handle and a first handle post, and a first leg portion including a first leg and a first leg post. The first handle extends perpendicularly from one end of the first handle post. The first leg extends perpendicularly from one end of the first leg post. The first handle post and the first leg post are rotatably connected to each other. The rotatably connected first handle post and first leg post are disposed within the first channel. The barricade system switches between a stowed state and a deployed state by rotating the first handle post 180 degree. The 180 degree rotation of the first handle post facilitates a 90 degree rotation of the first leg post.

  • Patent number: 10980299
    Abstract: A bottom garment for providing comfort to the wearer. The bottom garment may include a front panel and a back panel, both the front panel and the back panel formed of a high weft-stretch fabric. The bottom garment may also include a garment lining formed of a higher weft-stretch fabric, low weight fabric attached on the inside of the panels inside of the garment, above a crotch point of the bottom garment. The stretch in the weft direction of the garment lining is greater than a stretch in the weft direction of the front panel and the back panel. The stretch in the warp direction of the garment lining is less than the stretch in the weft direction of the garment lining. The bottom garment may further include an elastic support band for maintaining the position of the garment when the garment is worn.

  • Patent number: 9704307
    Abstract: A diagnostics unit (10) for detecting a noise, vibration, harshness (NVH) type fault observed by a user of a vehicle (90). The diagnostics unit (10) comprising: a stud type attachment means (20) for rigidly attaching the diagnostics unit (10) to a test component (30) of the vehicle (90), for example a transfer case (30). The diagnostics unit (10) also comprises an accelerometer (28a, 28b) for detecting a force of acceleration in at least one axial direction (‘X’). A power source (27) is provided within the diagnostics unit (10) along with a Bluetooth® data transmitter (25) for transmitting data gathered by the accelerometer (28a, 28b) of the diagnostics unit (10) to a computing device (50), such as a lap-top disposed within the vehicle (90). The data is analysed by the lap-top (50) to identify which component of the transfer case (30) (for example, gear, chain, bearing) is faulty.
