Abstract: Disclosed in this publication are channel mount fixings for the stacked mounting of elongated articles. In one implementation, a channel mount fixing includes a body section, a mount, and an object support. The body section is configured to position an elongated article adjacent to a workpiece. The mount is configured to attach to the workpiece. The object support is configured to support the article. The object support and body section define a channel therebetween that is configured to receive the article. The object support includes a block, a stand-off member, and a retainer arm. The block is configured to attach to the article via a cable tie and defines a cable tie pass-thru therethrough that is configured to receive the cable tie. The stand-off member is configured to space the block apart from the body section. The retainer arm is configured to retain the article in the channel.

Abstract: A channel routing entrance and exit is provided by a channel insert component that enables the passing of one or more elongated objects into or out of a channel. The channel insert component includes an opening configured to receive the one or more elongated objects. The opening is defined by one or more radiused edges that mitigate abrasion of the one or more elongated objects. The channel insert component also includes a notch configured to detachably secure the channel insert component to a protrusion of the channel. The channel insert component also includes a gap along the opening disposed between one or more cantilevers that are flexible from an initial shape to widen the gap, enabling the one or more elongated objects to fit through the gap into the opening.

Abstract: A fixing with a cutting guide may include a body section configured to mount on a workpiece, an object support configured to support a component, and a tie aperture configured to receive a cable tie. The object support includes a support arm that includes an outer surface, a first flange that extends from the outer surface along a first flange axis, a second flange that extends from the outer surface parallel to the first flange and spaced apart from the first flange, and a third flange that extends from the outer surface parallel to the first and second flanges. The third flange is positioned between the first and second flanges and is spaced apart from the first and second flanges. A first receiver is defined between the first and third flanges and a second receiver is defined between the second and third flanges.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fixing that includes a body section, a mounting section, and an object support. The body section has a body first end extending to a body second end, which defines a longitudinal axis. The body section includes a cable tie guide configured for receiving a cable tie, the cable tie guide includes a channel portion that extends along the body section longitudinal axis. The mounting section may include a connector configured for attachment to a workpiece. The object support and the body section define a cradle therebetween. The object support includes a stand-off member and a cradle arm. In aspects, the fixing includes a first fixing part and a second fixing part, which are joined at a breakable portion.

Abstract: This document describes fixings with visual installation status indicators. In aspects, the fixings may provide a user with a visual cue that indicates an installation status of the fixing, for example, an incomplete installation status or a complete installation status. In an aspect, a fixing is configured for attaching to a support structure at a bore defined in the support structure. The fixing includes a mount fastener configured for longitudinal insertion into the bore, a body section that extends from the mount fastener, and at least one visual indicator configured to indicate an installation status of the fixing to a user. The body section is configured to contact a first side of the support structure to limit the longitudinal insertion of the mount fastener into the bore.

Abstract: In some embodiments, lock assemblies are disclosed which have a housing, a barrel, and at least one tumbler. In some cases, the lock is codeable after the lock assembly has been assembled. Although not required, some embodiments can be re-coded to a new code with and without disassembling the lock assembly. The tumbler(s) can be pivotable, while in other embodiments the tumbler(s) move in a substantially linear fashion. The tumbler(s) can be comprised of two pieces or portions, wherein one piece/portion of the tumbler(s) either directly or indirectly engages the coded surface of a key while the other piece/portion is positionable to prevent rotation of the barrel with respect to the housing. In some embodiments, the tumblers are external to the barrel.

Abstract: A module for a battery is disclosed. The module includes a power system in the container. The power system also includes a high voltage battery for powering high voltage loads. The power system also includes a low voltage battery for powering low voltage loads. The module also includes a converter at least partially in the container configured for directing power provided from the high voltage battery to the low voltage battery. The module also includes a device for disconnecting at least one of the high voltage battery from the high voltage loads and the low voltage battery from the low voltage loads. The container is configured to transfer heat from the battery system to an outside of the container. A module for thermal management of a battery system is also disclosed. An energy management system for a battery system is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a portable, insulated carrier having a generally rigid housing defining a primary insulated compartment. An auxiliary storage assembly is attached to the housing for retaining an article on the housing externally of the primary insulated compartment. The auxiliary storage assembly includes a ledge and a retainer whereby the article abuts the ledge and is retained against the housing by the retainer. A secondary storage assembly is attached to the outside surface of the housing externally of the primary insulated compartment. The secondary storage assembly is formed of a flexible material to secure the contents yet provide access when necessary. An article retention assembly is attached to an outside surface of the housing. The retention assembly includes a generally elastic panel portion attached to an exterior surface of the housing with at least one edge thereof defining an opening for receiving articles therethrough.
