A rongeur including a shaft having a foot plate, a cutting slide, a breach extending between the foot plate and the cutting slide and a handle assembly for moving the cutting slide along the shaft. The cutting slide includes a pair of tracking arms arranged about a distal end of the cutting slide and a third tracking arm arranged about the proximal end thereof. The tracking arms are received within corresponding tracking slots in the shaft when the rongeur is in a closed position. The tracking arms are disengaged from the tracking slots by rotating the cutting slide about a pivot axis that extends parallel to the length of the shaft thereby placing the rongeur in an open position. To prevent inadvertent disengagement of the tracking arms from the tracking slots, a trigger assembly is provided which arrests proximal movement of the cutting slide.

A method and system for relieving forging induced residual stresses in a rotor forging balances a pre-spin machine with the forging mounted thereon at a first rotational speed and then pre-spins the forging with it mounted on the machine at a substantially greater second rotational speed. A one per rev sensor is used for determining a weight placement angle and a vibration sensor is used for determining an amount of weight to add to a spinning assembly including the forging during the balancing. High-density non-metallic balance weights adhesively attached on an inside surface of the forging or spinning assembly may be used. The rotational inertia of the spinning assembly may be checked during a spin up period by determining a rate of rotational acceleration vs. torque applied to the spinning assembly and used to stop the pre-spinning if it is to great.

A bucket assembly for a refrigerator door includes a bucket frame and a bucket. The bucket frame includes a rear portion, opposing side portions and at least two mounting members. The mounting members detachably support the bucket frame on a plurality of support elements from an inner liner of the refrigerator door. The bucket includes a front wall, a back wall, a bottom wall, opposing side walls and a keeper element. The keeper element is provided to support the bucket on the bucket frame or, alternatively, respective ones of the plurality of support members. When supported on the bucket frame, the bucket is pivotable relative to the bucket frame. Therefore, the bucket can be selectively mounted for stationary or tilt-out modes of use depending upon whether or not the bucket frame is interposed between the bucket and the inner liner.

A gear cam mounting device in a dual-hinge device for a portable terminal is provided, in which first and second hinge shafts provide first and second parallel hinge axes, respectively, first and second gear cams are fixed around the first and second hinge shafts, in engagement with each other, and first and second locking units penetrate respectively through the first and second gear cams in a direction that is perpendicular to the first and second hinge axes, for locking the first and second gear cams to surround the first and second hinge shafts.

A system comprises a plug locking assembly and a key. The plug locking assembly comprises a cover for receiving and holding a plug comprising a latch and a latch support surface positionable under the latch. A rotatable cam comprising a stop surface and a slot may carry the latch support surface and may interact with a cam latch comprising an arm. The arm is alternately positionable to abut the stop surface and to lie within the slot. The key may comprise a shaft, a key tab and a limit tab. The key mates with a key receiving member associated with the cover. The limit tab is positioned on a top surface of the shaft and helps prevent over-rotation of the latch support member.

A personal respiratory protection device 10 that comprises a mask body 12 that has a structure 35 located on it for receiving a clean air supply source such as a filter cartridge 14. The clean air receiving structure 35 has a first threaded portion 34. The clean air supply source has a second threaded portion 58 that has a thread 60 that mates with a thread 36 of the first threaded portion 34. The first and second threaded portions 34 and 58 engage each other at a high thread pitch and include an integral détente. A stop prevents over-rotation of the clean air supply source 14 relative to the mask body 12 during the securement operation. The inventive device allows the clean air supply source 14 to be attached to the mask body 12 with minimal rotation and is sufficiently intuitive that users may only need one hand to attach and replace the clean air source component 14 without having to remove the respirator 10 from their face.

An interlocking container end closure which permits a plurality of containers to be joined together and the contents thereof mixed.

A fitting (1) is specified, in particular for a vehicle seat, which has a first fitting part (3) and a second fitting part (4) that is rotatable around a rotary axis (7) relative to the first fitting part (3), and which has at least one safety bolt (10) that is movably guided in the radial direction on the first fitting part (3) for the purpose of forming an interlock with the second fitting part (4). According to a first variant, at least one rotatable actuating cam (34) is provided for radially supporting the safety bolt (10), which has outer, middle and inner support surfaces (50, 51, 52) running in the circumferential direction, the support surfaces (50, 51, 52) each having a radial offset relative to each other, and the step between the middle and the outer support surfaces (50, 51, 52) forming a stop against the safety bolt (10). According to a further variant, fitting (1) has an engagement means (35) for retracting the safety bolt (10), which is designed as a link (42) guiding the safety bolt (10), which includes a radial limiting surface (44) that acts as a stop in interaction with the safety bolt (10). A fitting of this type is effectively protected against over-rotation.

An actuator apparatus controls a valve mechanism of a suspension system. The apparatus includes a valve actuating assembly and an adjuster assembly. The valve actuating assembly is operatively connected to the valve mechanism and is operable between at least two rider-selectable positions to adjust the valve mechanism between various suspension settings. The adjuster assembly is operatively connected to the valve actuating assembly for adjusting the damping characteristics corresponding to at least one of the positions of the valve actuating assembly independently of the damping characteristics corresponding to another position of the valve actuating assembly.

An improved wafer container is provided for use with automated equipment. The container includes a top lid that engages with a bottom base to form a housing having an inner cavity for storing semiconductor wafers. The lid includes a handling member that interfaces with automated equipment for engaging the lid with the base and removing the lid from the base. The container includes latches that can be actuated between a locked position and an unlocked position by automated equipment. The container can hold multiple stacked wafer separator rings, each of which has automation tabs extending outwardly from the ring outer rim. The automation tabs allow for automated equipment to transfer the wafer separators rings between the container and a staging area.

The invention discloses an intelligent electric cooker system capable of automatically cooking. The system comprises an electric cooker terminal and a monitoring terminal. The electric cooker terminal comprises a rice bin, an accommodation box and an electric cooker, and the accommodation box is arranged below the rice bin. The accommodation box is the rectangular box provided with an opening at the upper end, and is divided into a first tank and a second tank through a separator plate.
