Abstract: A locking assembly for a door assembly of an agricultural vehicle includes: an actuator that defines an actuator axis and is linearly movable between a first position and a second position and rotatable about the actuator axis between a first locking orientation and a second locking orientation and includes a pair of locking features; a biaser configured to bias the actuator toward the first position; an energizer configured to bias the actuator toward the first locking orientation when the actuator is in the second locking orientation; and a lock configured to engage a second locking feature when the actuator is in the second locking orientation. Linear movement of the actuator from the first position to the second position while the actuator is in the second locking orientation causes the lock to disengage from the second locking feature so the energizer rotates the actuator towards the first locking orientation.

Abstract: A valve includes a set screw that is screwable into and out of a complementary female threaded opening in a valve part for changing a setting of the valve, for changing an adjustable flow restriction of the valve, in which the set screw includes a free outer end that projects outside the valve part, and a gripping part on its free outer end for a tool to be engageable thereupon. The free outer end of the set screw includes a male thread onto which a locking nut is screwed. A protective cap is provided for covering the free outer end, that includes a first cap portion with a rotation space for fitting freely rotatable over the locking nut, and a second cap portion with a complementary female thread that is screwed onto the male thread towards a locked position.

Abstract: Seal arrangement (48) comprising a plug member (46) configured to seal a through opening (12) in a wall (10); a pressing section (74); and a cover member (70) configured to be connected to the plug member (46) and configured to force the pressing section (74) to press a sealing element (72), arranged laterally outside the plug member (46), towards the wall (10). A kit of parts and a method for sealing a through opening (12) in a wall (10) and for painting the wall (10) are also provided.

Abstract: A tissue removal system may include a tissue removal device including a handpiece and an upper housing, and configured with an outer cannula having an outer cannula opening for severing tissue, an inner cannula disposed in the outer cannula and reciprocal within the outer cannula, an illumination device having a sleeve arranged at least partially on the outer cannula, and a fiber optic channel defining an opening and arranged offset from the sleeve, and a light source arranged within the channel and configured to supply light from the opening to a surgical site.

Abstract: A tire valve cap having an ABS thread shield that will not interact with the different metal valve stems used on today's vehicles. The ABS insert uses a unique snap in ring design with anti-twist taps that hold the insert into an outer metal cap and at the same time will not twist around inside the cavity of the metal outer cap. Further, the cap includes a unique manner of holding the stem seal in place by using an over-molded in seal (e.g., square O-ring) that will not dislodge with use.

Abstract: A cap for use in covering a portion of a fastener protruding from a surface is provided. The portion includes threads. The cap includes an interior, a base that at least partially delimits the interior, a threaded receptacle on the interior configured to threadably engage the portion of the fastener, and a seal coupled to the base to engage the surface.

Abstract: A self-sealing protective/dust cover for application to a magnetically attractable filling port includes a sleeve defined by a closed wall and closed at one end by an end face. The closed wall defines an open central region and the end face is contiguous with the closed wall. A magnet provide magnetic attraction between the protective/dust cover and the filling port to maintain the protective/dust cover on the filling port.

Abstract: A system, method, and device for an assembly cover positioning on an end piece is disclosed. The exemplary device may have a sidewall portion made of a ring of material with an aperture in the center wherein the aperture is sized to produce a frictional fit on the end piece. The exemplary device also has a cover portion coupled to a top portion of the sidewall portion.

Abstract: A pipe nipple protective sleeve that includes a sheath that is closed at a forward end and connects to a collar at an open rear end, where the collar is open into the sheath and the collar hole and sheath diameters and the sheath length are selected to fit over a particular diameter and length of a pipe nipple as projects from a wall of a building under construction, with the sheath to fit over and cover the pipe nipple and the collar is to receive fasteners, such as staples, driven there through for mounting it onto a wall stud or sheet rock surface adjacent to the pipe nipple. With the pipe nipple protective sleeve installed onto the pipe nipple, a section of skeet rock that the pipe nipple is fitted through, is textured, painted or tiled over during the wall finishing and, after completion of the wall finishing, the sheath is separated from the collar, exposing the nipple surface that is free of contaminants and is ready for receiving a fitting or fixture attached thereto.

Abstract: A duct cover for installation on a duct having a known sectional area defined by the duct exterior margin, includes a cover envelop having a body, the body having an open end and an opposed closed end with a center portion extending between the open end and the closed end to define an envelop enclosure, the body being substantially impermeable relative to airborne particulate and moisture, and an elastic member being operably coupled to the body open end and having a relaxed disposition and an expanded disposition, the expanded disposition defining an opening that is area that is greater than the duct sectional area, the elastic member being contractable from the expanded disposition to a duct conforming disposition in compressive sealing engagement with the duct exterior margin. A method of installing a duct cover on a duct is further included.

Abstract: A valve stem and cap apparatus includes a valve stem having a base for attachment to a rim and a tubular sleeve extending upwardly from the base, the sleeve defining an open end. A stem valve is positioned in the sleeve for regulating air flow therethrough. A pair of resilient flanges are positioned on an outer surface of the sleeve adjacent the open end. The apparatus includes a cap having a cylindrical configuration with an open end for selectively covering the open end of the sleeve. The cap defines a pair of oppositely disposed apertures for releasably engaging respective resilient flanges in a snap-fit relationship when the cap is positioned to cover the open end of the sleeve and appropriately rotated.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a dust plug for insertion into a fluid conduit system. The dust plug is comprised of an insertion end, removal means, and a hollow central body located between the insertion end and the removal means. The insertion end of the plug is formed as a solid flat end so that when the plug is inserted into the fluid conduit system, the hollow interior of the plug does not communicate with the interior of the system. Additionally, the removal means is preferably formed as a continuous lip about the end of the hollow central body.

Abstract: A plastic end plug for use with plastic pipe, the end plug having a knock-off disc with dimensions that prevent the entire disc, when separated from the remainder of the plug, from entering the pipe bore. The knock-off disc of the plastic end plug is removable by a force applied to the disc in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis through the pipe bore, and desirably includes an optical indicator observable by the user to determine whether or not the underside of the knock-off disc is wetted by a fluid contained in the pipe segment.
