Abstract: A security panel mounting system having a mounting unit configured to attach to a mounting surface; a securing unit configured to engage with the mounting unit wherein the engagement of the securing unit with the mounting unit forms a base fixture; a first narrow gasket and a second narrow gasket, each narrow gasket having: a narrow gasket body; a T-shaped narrow gasket handle attached to the narrow gasket body; and a gasket hollow nested within the narrow gasket body; wherein each narrow gasket handle is configured to engage with a corresponding structure within the base fixture to secure a security panel within the base fixture; and a cover configured to engage with the base fixture. An advantage is that the hollow within each narrow gasket may allow an impact to the panel to be responded more flexibly, reducing the likelihood of the mounting system being damaged from the impact.

Abstract: A compression framing system configured to engage with opposing mounting surfaces, the compression framing system having a compression frame, the compression frame having: a first compression arm and a second compression arm, each compression arm having: a hollow pipe body; and a friction shoe associated with the hollow pipe body, said friction shoe being configured to engage directly with the mounting surface; an inner support beam configured to secure the first compression arm to the second compression arm; and an expansion controller associated with the hollow pipe body of the first compression arm; wherein the expansion controller is configured to selectively adjust a separation distance between the friction shoe of the first compression arm and the friction shoe of the second compression arm. The compression framing system is configured to provide a mounting structure frictionally engaged with opposing mounting surfaces for non-destructive attachment of a protective structure.

Abstract: A corner connector having a first connector leg; and a second connector leg associated with the first connector leg, such that a connector angle is formed between the first connector leg and the second connector leg, each connector leg having: a leg body; at least one engagement port nested within the leg body; at least one set screw configured to be nested within the at least one engagement port of the corresponding connector leg; and a pair of connector grooves nested within the leg body of the corresponding connector leg, wherein each connector groove of the pair of connector grooves is configured to engage with a corresponding complementary structure of a corresponding member of a security frame. The corner connector is configured to facilitate a secure, waterproof seal between security frame members that form mitered corners, such that fluid does not infiltrate into the corresponding security frame after installation.

Abstract: A security panel mounting system having: a mounting unit configured to attach to a mounting surface; a securing unit configured to attach to the mounting unit to form a base fixture; a shock gasket configured to nest within the base fixture, wherein the shock gasket is configured to secure a security panel within the base fixture; and a cover configured to engage with the base fixture. A center mullion may be implemented to allow multiple security panels to be mounted within the mounting surface. One advantage is that the security panel mounting system may allow for the utilization of security panels within any window or door to enhance security. Another advantage is that the shock gasket may allow for the expansion and contraction of the security panels, as a result of changes in ambient conditions, to occur without resulting in bowing or deformation of the security panel.

Abstract: A compression framing system configured to engage with opposing mounting surfaces, the compression framing system having a compression frame, the compression frame comprising: a first compression arm and second compression arms, each compression arm having: a body member; a pivot foot engaged with the body member, said pivot foot being configured to engage directly with a corresponding mounting surface; and a shock bracket engaged with the body member and configured to engage with a protective structure; an inner support beam configured to secure the first compression arm to the second compression arm; and an expansion controller associated with the body member of the first compression arm; wherein the expansion controller is configured to selectively adjust a separation distance between the pivot feet of the compression arms.

Abstract: A pintle hitch connector, which includes a cylindrical trailer contact portion, a threaded portion extending from the cylindrical base with cylindrical walls. A threaded portion is provided distal to the trailer contact portion, where the threaded portion includes a hole to accommodate a locking mechanism or retainer pin. The end of the trailer contact cylinder distal to the threaded portion has a load securing pin extrusion bisecting its circumference. The load securing pin has a hole in the insertion end of the shaft to accommodate a locking mechanism or some retaining pin, and inserts into the hole running the length of the load securing pin extrusion.

Abstract: A needleless injector has a syringe body having an opening at one end, a piston housed within the syringe body for urging a liquid within the syringe body through the opening and a ram for driving the piston. A shock absorbing component is provided for reducing an initial transfer of force from the ram to the piston. The initial rate of pressure increase on the liquid is reduced, thereby controlling the rate of collapse of gas bubbles in the liquid.
