Abstract: A device for positioning motor vehicle parts in the production or manufacture of motor vehicles. The device includes a main frame, at least one main module configured to be disposed on the main frame, at least one interchangeable first docking plate configured for releasable connection to the main module, and a plurality of first receptacles, arranged on the interchangeable first docking plate, configured to hold the motor vehicle parts at a predefined position during the production.

Abstract: A quickly assembled and disassembled protective cover for a table sawing machine is pivotally assembled on a cover plate having one end secured on an assembly base of a quick disassembling device. The assembly base is bored with a positioning hole for a positioning pin to be axially inserted therein. When pushed or pulled to shift axially, the positioning pin can be inserted and positioned in or separated from a through hole of a chopper plate, and the positioning pin is fixed in position by a positioning element. By so designing, the assembly base can be quickly assembled on or disassembled from the chopper plate, achieving effect of quick assembly and disassembly of the protective cover.

Abstract: An articulating adapter allowing increased clamping and holding capabilities of a common vise or tool at a plurality of angles having a base mounting plate (12) attached to a table (T). The rotating plate (14) has a mounting means (24) to allow the turning on a horizontal plane while having a hinged means to the articulating plate (16) allowing movement from 0 to at least 90 degrees from horizontal. The rotating plate (14) and the articulating plate (16) are attached via a set of links (18) and a slotted link (20) and having a set on each side with a locking means (34) and (36) to set at a given plurality of angles as needed. The articulating plate (16) additionally allows a variety of sizes and types of vises or tools to be attached.

Abstract: An adjustable clamp for holding objects securely in position comprising at least one arm (1) which exhibits one articulated arrangement (4, 5) arranged at each of the two ends of the arm. The articulated arrangement exhibits two pivot pins (6, 8, 7, 9) arranged at an angle to each other. The object (36) is held securely by a clamping arrangement attached to the articulated arrangement. Each articulated device (4, 5) exhibits, free to move in relation to the arm (1), an articulated body (15) with a curved articulated surface (16) which is in contact with and is so arranged as to move relative to a corresponding curved articulated surface (17) in an articulated component (12) attached to the ends (2, 3) of the arm. The articulated body also exhibits a flat articulated surface (18) which is contact with and may be turned relative to a corresponding flat surface.

Abstract: Selected fields of a redundant field slow motion video tape reproduced video signal are stored in a memory at a given clock rate and recovered at a lower clock rate that is inversely proportional to the number of times each field is repeated so as to produce a non-redundant video signal of reduced bandwidth. An audio signal is simultaneously reproduced from the tape at a rate less than that at which it was originally recorded and combined with the recovered video signal to produce a composite audio-video signal of reduced bandwidth possessing the full informational content of the original audio and video signals. The composite signal is suitable for application to the cutterhead of a video disc mastering lathe operating at reduced turntable speed whereby full bandwidth master recordings may be made with a cutterhead of lesser bandwidth.
