This disclosure pertains to methods and apparatus for interfacing an onsite power generation system with an existing main electric panel. The interfacing is performed by: attaching a fifth jaw connector to a neutral bridge within an existing meter socket; wiring AC supply lines from the onsite power generation system to load side jaws of a five blade meter socket adapter; and wiring a neutral line from the onsite power generation system to a fifth terminal of the meter socket adapter. The lines from the onsite power generation system are routed through an opening formed in the meter socket adapter. The meter socket adapter is then inserted into the meter socket so that five jaws in the socket receive all five blades of the meter socket adapter. The blades of the meter are then plugged into the jaws on the opposite end of the meter socket adapter.

A socket adaptor, for use in creating a laminated stump socket for use with a patient having a stump, in attaching a prosthetic limb to the patient. The socket adaptor has a main body and a plurality of prongs. The prongs are made of sheet titanium so that they are flexible and bendable to closely accommodate the stump. The socket adaptor is subsequently encapsulated with the laminated stump socket. The main body allows a prosthetic connector to be attached thereto to allow the laminated stump socket to secure directly to the prosthetic limb.

A progressing cavity pump / motor includes a stator tube (12), a rotor (20) within the stator tube, and a coupling assembly (30) interconnecting the upper and lower rotor sections. The coupling includes a drive adapter (32) and a socket adapter (36) for transmitting torque between the upper and lower rotor sections, and at least one alignment surface (60) in cooperation with a mating surface to rotationally position the drive adapter within the socket adapter at a selected circumferential position. The pump / motor may be reliably assembled in the field while maintaining precise axial and rotational positioning of the rotor sections.

An integrated tool system that includes various interchangeable implements and attachments to provide functionality of pliers, wrenches, hammers, ratchets and screwdrivers. Many of the attachments are secured to rectangular jaws at the upper portion of the device. The lower portion of the device includes an ratcheting gear for accepting sockets, socket adaptors, ratchet extensions and so forth. The upper and lower portions are separable to reveal a receiver for hexes that is stored within the handle, thereby facilitating screwdriving and the like.

The present invention relates to a pressure checking piston and the tools group used by the pressure checking piston. A socket adaptor (70) is stored in the accepting case (5) of the tools group. Besides, the loading tools (60) are embedded at the peristome of the accepting case (5). The loading tools (60), the circumference protuberance (63) at the lower end of the handle part (61) is embedded installed at the circumference trough (7) at the inner peristome of the accepting case (5), and the handle part also acts as the cover of the accepting case. In this way, the handle part (61) can also act as the cover of the accepting case (5), so it does not need the cover of the tools group of itself. At the state that the casing (20) is absorbed at the loading tools (60), the loading tools can not installed at the accepting case (5) in the tools group. Therefore, when we unloads the casing (20) of the pressure checking piston using the loading tools (60) and the pressure checking or the air stripping has finished, it can avoid that we forget to install the casing (20) again. In this way, it can avoid the careless exposing of the piston inner part, and it will not reduce the operation character when we do experiment.

A travel power adapter system includes a base unit and a plurality of adapter assemblies. The base unit provides an integral prong configuration associated with an intrinsic electrical plug standard. Each adapter assembly provides a prong configuration associated with a different extrinsic electrical plug standard. The base unit provides a base recess that the integral prong configuration can pivot into in a nested condition. Each adapter assembly provides coupling sleeves dimensioned to slidably receive, in a first direction, the plurality of prongs in the nesting condition, forming an operative association between the base unit and the prong configuration of the adapter assembly, enabling an electrical connection to a receptacle or socket associated with the extrinsic electrical plug standard. The adapter assembly provides a locking unit that engages a locking slot of the base recess, thereby preventing the adapter assembly unintentionally moving in the reverse first direction.
