Abstract: A rebar cage includes a rebar guide, a rebar rod, and a rebar cage connector. The rebar cage connector includes front and rear sides, a base portion having top and bottom ends, upper and lower tabs extending at angles from the top and bottom ends of the base portion, and a hook portion. The upper and lower tabs respectively include upper and lower tab openings extending through the upper and lower tabs and through the top and bottom ends of the base portion. The hook portion extends from a first end at the base portion at the rear side and curls up towards the upper tab at a second end. The upper tab opening and the lower tab opening receive the rebar rod on the front side of the rebar cage connector. The hook portion receives the rebar guide on the rear side of the rebar cage connector.

Abstract: Reinforcing bar cage connectors and methods of constructing reinforcing bar cages are provided. A reinforcing bar cage includes a reinforcing bar guide, a reinforcing bar rod, and a reinforcing bar cage connector. The reinforcing bar cage connector includes a first clamp portion facing a first direction and configured to receive one of the reinforcing bar guide or the reinforcing bar rod in a first opening. The reinforcing bar cage connector includes a second clamp portion facing a second direction, opposite the first direction, and configured to receive an other one of the reinforcing bar guide or the reinforcing bar rod in a second opening. The first opening is perpendicular to the second opening. The reinforcing bar cage connector includes a metal tie wire is operable to be twisted to compress the first clamp portion and the second clamp portion.

Abstract: A stop-arm with camera system for a vehicle is provided. The stop-arm with camera system may include a shield, a stop-arm, and a camera assembly. The stop-arm includes a first side and a second side. The stop-arm may be deployable between a first position where the first side of the stop-arm is disposed at least partially inside the shield, and a second position where the stop-arm is substantially perpendicular to the shield. The camera assembly is coupled to the first side of the stop-arm. The stop-arm with camera system may be mounted on a rear passenger side of the vehicle, which may be a bus. The camera assembly may provide a view including an area that is under the vehicle and between a rear wheel of the vehicle and a front wheel of the vehicle when the stop-arm is in the second position.

Abstract: Certain embodiments provide a stop-arm with camera system for a vehicle. The stop-arm with camera system includes a shield, a stop-arm, and a camera assembly. The stop-arm includes a first side and a second side. The stop-arm is deployable between a first position where the first side of the stop-arm is disposed at least partially inside the shield, and a second position where the stop-arm is substantially perpendicular to the shield. The camera assembly is coupled to the first side of the stop-arm. In various embodiments, the stop-arm with camera system is mounted on a rear passenger side of the vehicle, which may be a bus. In certain embodiments, the camera assembly provides a view including an area that is under the vehicle and between a rear wheel of the vehicle and a front wheel of the vehicle when the stop-arm is in the second position.
