  • Patent number: 9765919
    Abstract: The resilient foot has a rubber tubular member to provide a resilient support and an insert of solid material within the tubular member to limit the travel of the resilient foot under load. The insert is disposed in a bore of the tubular member and is inwardly spaced a small distance from the support surface of the tubular member to limit the vertical motion. The resilient foot has an enlarged elastomeric flange to provide non-slip characteristics and radial grooves are provided in the flange for the squeezing out of fluid between the foot and a mounting surface.

  • Patent number: 9046256
    Abstract: The connector for connecting the LED tube to the electrical supply holder has a pair of metal connector pins each of which has a pair of electrical contact in two bores of a circumferential array of bore to allow the LED tube to be inserted into the electrical supply holder in each of several positions 90° apart. In a second embodiment, the connector has a pair of metal connector pins each of which has a semi-cylindrical wall against which a pin of the LED tube contacts. In this embodiment, the LED tube may be turned up to 360°.

  • Publication number: 20120266542
    Abstract: The latch assembly employs a coil spring for biasing a roller assembly with a main roller in a direction outwardly of the housing. The roller assembly has a pair of guide rollers or guide plates for guiding the roller assembly on the inside of the housing during use. The coil spring is positioned between the two guide rollers and remains coaxial of the housing during pivoting of the roller assembly within the housing during use. Guide pins are provided to keep the roller assembly from rubbing against the housing walls as a thrust load is applied to the main roller.
