Abstract: A fuel injector seal for preventing the intrusion of liquid fuel into the working moving parts of a fuel injector. The seal is in the form of a flexible bellows, assembled from first, inner and second, outer caps joined together. The seal is positioned in the injector to create a liquid tight seal between the reciprocating injector jet needle and the enclosure for the remaining fuel-sensitive components of the injector.

Abstract: Scroll saws produce an accumulation of sawdust or other debris removed from a workpiece during operation of the saw. This debris can block the operator's view of the cutting path of the saw. An improved device and method for removing accumulated debris from the cutting path of a saw blade is disclosed. A bellows is described, comprising a bellows section having an accordion-like structure and a flexible stem having a passage through which air may pass. The bellows may be manufactured as a single piece using a blow molding process to achieve greater structural integrity. A scroll saw having a bellows for removing debris and a protective cover for use with the bellows is also described.

Abstract: An improved mathematically modeled family of bellow fold patterns, useful for making bellows from stiff but foldable materials, which forms a corner of a bellow consisting of a series of several single inversion fold patterns, each having a characteristic design angle which is mathematically computed to provide a desired initial wall angle for the bellow and to minimize wall tilting over a predetermined extension angle range, thereby allowing low cost bellows to be made which can extend long distances while using a minimal amount of stiff but foldable material.

Abstract: A plurality of axially aligned bellows are formed in the cuff of a protective boot to accommodate a large diametric range of cylinders to be encircled by the cuff.
