A joint for connecting two adjacent flooring panels together in a substantially vertical manner includes a rotatable locking member made of plastic, metal or another resilient material. The rotatable locking member is located within a groove or opening of one flooring panel and the second flooring panel has a tongue shaped to mate with the rotatable locking member. Upon installation, the rotatable member rotates and locks around the back of the tongue via a groove above the tongue. The rotatable locking member includes a resilient arm which is bent away from its initial rest position upon installation, so that when the rotatable locking member locks onto the tongue, the resilient arm is bent providing a biasing force which holds the panel securely in position.

A connector is configured to connect two frame members. The connector includes a body with a first end and a second end spaced from the first end. A fulcrum is coupled to the body between the first end and the second end. The body is configured to be received in a channel of a frame member and pivots about the fulcrum inside the channel between a first pivot position in which the frame members are free to move relative to one another and a second pivot position in which the frame members are locked against relative movement.

The present invention incorporates a flexible seal into a typical coaxial cable connector. The seal comprises a flexible brim, a transition band, and a tubular insert with an insert chamber defined within the seal. In a first embodiment the flexible brim is angled away from the insert chamber, and in a second embodiment the flexible brim is angled inward toward the insert chamber. A flange end of the seal makes a compliant contact between the port and connector faces when the nut of a connector is partially tightened, and becomes sandwiched firmly between the ground surfaces when the nut is properly tightened. The present invention allows the connector to make a uniform RF seal on a port even with a range of tightening torques.

A bicycle wheel securing structure includes a shaft member, a head member, a lever member and an adjustment member. The shaft member has a first threaded end and a second end with a center axis extending therebetween. The head member is disposed on the second end of the shaft member. The lever member is operatively mounted between the shaft member and the head member to move the shaft member in an axial direction relative to the head member in response to movement of the lever member. The adjustment member is axially adjustably coupled to the head member such that an axial position of an abutment surface of the adjustment member can be adjusted relative to the shaft member.

A furniture automatic resetting type press and rebound mechanism comprises a furniture movable part, a furniture immovable part, connecting elements and a fixed support. The furniture movable part is movably arranged on the furniture immovable part in an opening-closing mode, a press and rebound device, a stretchable resetting device and at least two rotating wheels are arranged on the fixed support, the press and rebound device at least comprises pushing and moving elements, and the stretchable resetting device at least comprises stretchable elements and first elastic elements which are mutually matched in an elastic mode; the pushing and moving elements and the stretchable elements are slidably arranged on the fixed support, the at least two rotating wheels are arranged in a relatively independent mode and rotatably arranged on the fixed support, the at least two rotating wheels are mutually matched in a linkage mode when rotating to a certain position, one of the two rotating wheels is in driving connection with the stretchable elements, and the other one of the two rotating wheels is in driving connection with the pushing and moving elements; and swing elements are arranged on the pushing and moving elements, heart-shaped sliding chutes are formed in the fixed support, the swing elements are arranged on the pushing and moving elements in a swinging mode, and one ends of the swing elements sequentially slide along tracks of the heart-shaped sliding chutes towards one direction when the pushing and moving elements slide.

A bicycle wheel securing structure includes a shaft member, a head member, a first wheel securing device, a second wheel securing device, a first lever member and a second lever member. The shaft member has first and second end portions and a longitudinal center axis. The head member is coupled at the second end portion. The first wheel securing device is positioned at the second end portion. The second wheel securing device positioned at least one of the first and second end portions. The first lever member is operatively connected to the first wheel securing device to move the first wheel securing device in response to movement of the first lever member. The second lever member is operatively connected to the second wheel securing device to move the second wheel securing device in response to movement of the second lever member.
