  • Publication number: 20240360665
    Abstract: In one aspect, the invention provides a structural post that comprises a major flange and a minor flange connected through a web portion. The two flanges are configured such that a cross-sectional area of the major flange is greater than that of the minor flange. Thus, the structural post has an asymmetrical configuration due to the difference in the cross-sectional area between the two flanges. The middle portion has substantially less material thus rendering the structural post lighter in construction, which would facilitate transportation as well as make buildings lighter. Further, the minimal amount of material used in the web portion reduces thermal bridge, thus reducing heat loss from interior to exterior. The structural post of the invention can further be manufactured to predetermined dimensions to ensure that it can conveniently replace existing studs.

    Abstract: Apparatus and method for temporarily supporting metal framing members during construction of a metal frame structure. A spacer tool has a main body portion with an outer tube and a first support plate at one end, and an extendable portion with an inner tube and a second support plate at an opposing end. The inner tube is slidably retractable and extendable within the outer tube to establish an overall separation distance between the first and second support plates via a locking assembly. Each of the first and second support plates includes at least one magnet to enable the support plates to be magnetically secured to each of the adjacent metal framing members during installation thereof. For example, a first metal stud can be secured, and the spacer tool can be used to position and support a second metal stud for installation at the desired spacing from the first stud.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods disclosed herein relate to modular safety barrier panels with individually releasable barrier members. The barrier panel may, for example, include horizontal rails. The rails may, for example, each include a respective array of spatially distributed apertures. An array of barrier members may, for example, each be disposed through a corresponding aperture in the upper rail and into a corresponding aperture in the lower rail. One or more of the barrier members may, for example, also pass through an aperture of at least one coupling member. A selectively operated closure member may, in a locked mode, prevent removal of the barrier member out of the apertures. Various embodiments may advantageously provide rapid and tool-less assembly of a modular fence panel for livestock and/or release of one or more members of the modular fence panel.

    Abstract: An exemplary lock apparatus generally includes a shackle, a crossbar, a lock device, a first bolt, and a trigger. The lock device has a locked state in which the lock device retains a spindle in a spindle locking position, and an unlocked state in which the lock device does not prevent movement of the spindle to a spindle unlocking position. The first bolt is engaged with the spindle such that movement of the spindle between the spindle locking position and the spindle unlocking position drives the first bolt between a first locking position and a first unlocking position. The trigger is movably mounted in the crossbar for movement between an engagement position, in which the trigger maintains the spindle in the spindle unlocking position, and a disengagement position, in which the spindle is operable to move to the spindle locking position.

  • Publication number: 20240360697
    Abstract: A portable electronic lock comprises a lock body and a securing part that is movable relative to the lock body between a closed position and an open position, wherein the lock body comprises an electromechanical locking device that has an electric motor having a rotor, a latch coupled to the rotor, and a control circuit. The latch can be electrically driven by means of the electric motor from a locking position, in which the securing part located in the closed position is locked to the lock body, into an unlocking position in which the securing part is released for a movement into the open position. A mechanical driving of the latch can be effected by a moving of the securing part from the open position into the closed position, with the latch being drive-effectively coupled to the rotor of the electric motor such that the mechanical driving of the latch effects a forced rotational movement of the rotor. The control circuit is configured to detect the forced rotational movement of the rotor.
