Rear vehicle body structure

In a rear vehicle body structure, a spare tire is received in a spare tire pan in a rear end up slanted orientation, the front end of the spare tire is prevented from forward movement by a spare tire pan cross member, and a rear bottom of the spare tire pan is reinforced. At the time of a rear end crash, the spare tire is tilted substantially to an upright orientation around the front end, and the spare tire pan is deformed such that the rear bottom is folded upon a front bottom wall in the shape of letter Z as seen from side so that the spare tire pan provides a long deformation stroke, and is utilized for absorbing the impact energy of the rear end crash. Preferably, the rear bottom comprises an elevated horizontal part and a stepped portion defining a front edge of the elevated horizontal part.

Double Cam Taper Lock Connector Pin Apparatus

A hammerless connector pin assembly is insertable in the aligned connector openings in telescoped ground engaging wear and support members and is releasably lockable therein. The inserted assembly has opposite end portions that block removal of the wear member from the support member. Each of the two end portions has a laterally projecting cam member disposed thereon which is positioned within opposite ones of the two opposed wear member connector openings. As the interior surface of the wear member becomes worn from use and is able to shift further rearwardly along the support member, the cam members may simultaneously be rotationally adjusted to maintain contact with the wear member to prevent forward movement thereof away from its rearward shifted position, and then locked in their rotationally adjusted positions.

Trigger sprayer nozzle assembly and sprayer housing attachment lock

InactiveUS20070295757A1Increase velocityReduced diametric dimensionLarge containersLiquid transferring devicesCross overEngineering
The present invention pertains to the construction of a manually operated trigger sprayer in which the sprayer housing has a reduced diameter dimension liquid discharge passage to increase the velocity of liquid flow through the liquid discharge passage, and in which the nozzle assembly has a novel configuration that securely attaches the nozzle assembly to the sprayer housing to prevent the increased velocity of liquid flow through the sprayer housing liquid discharge passage from dislodging the nozzle assembly from the sprayer housing. The novel construction of the sprayer housing and the nozzle assembly includes a resilient crossbar provided on the sprayer housing that crosses over the liquid discharge passage and a pair of resilient flanges on the nozzle assembly that engage over opposite sides of the sprayer assembly crossbar and securely attaching the nozzle assembly to the sprayer housing.

Leg protection system and vehicle having the same

A leg protection system includes an airbag that deploys in front of a leg of an occupant seated in a vehicle seat. The airbag first deploys in front of an ankle or an instep of the leg, and then deploys upwardly along the leg. An airbag may include an ankle bag that deploys only in front of the ankle or the instep, and a knee bag that deploys only in front of the knee. A vehicle may further include a closing panel for blocking a space between a lower end of an instrument panel and a dash panel.

Display shelf with adjustable divider walls

InactiveUS20130075352A1Increased bending stiffnessReduces transverse deformation and bendingShow cabinetsRacksEngineeringMechanical engineering
A divider wall for use with a gravity-fed shelf assembly includes an elongate wall portion and a first front leg extending from a first end of the wall portion. The first front leg has a body portion and an engagement protrusion extending from the body portion. The divider wall further includes a rear leg extending from a second end of the wall portion. The first front leg and the rear leg are each adapted to be received into a front slot and a rear slot, respectively, of the shelf assembly. Gravity acts on the divider wall and displaces it within the front and rear slots toward a front end of the shelf assembly such that an undersurface of the shelf assembly adjacent the front slot is in contact with or immediately adjacent to the engagement protrusion to prevent the removal of the first front leg from the front slot.

InactiveUS20040087896A1Lower the volumeMaintaining the sterility of the adjustment slotJet injection syringesMedical devicesNeedle Free InjectionEngineering
A method and apparatus for adjusting the contents of a needle-less injector that contains an injectable product are described. A needle-less injector includes an adjustment switch in mechanical contact with the driver of a needle-less injector. A user may displace the adjustment switch to expel air or gas contained in the product section of the needle-less injector prior to administration of a needle-less injection with the same. The adjustment switch may alternatively or additionally be used to expel at least a portion of the injectable product contained in the needle-less injector to reduce the volume of the product to be injected with the needle-less injector.

Web separator with reverse rotation mechanism for tissue paper winding machine

ActiveUS20090026299A1Easily pull apartFacilitate smooth windingArticle deliveryWebs handlingPaper sheetCounter rotation
A tissue paper winding machine includes a first winding roller and a web separator arranged below the first winding roller. A tissue paper is fed into the winding machine to bear against a lower circumferential surface of the first winding roller and moves along a predetermined feeding direction for winding around a core. The web separator includes a pivot shaft, at least one pinch arm having a connecting end connected to the pivot shaft and a pressing end radially outward extended from the pivot shaft, and a driving mechanism for driving the pinch arm to turn about the pivot shaft reverse to the feeding direction of the tissue paper. When the pressing end of the pinch arm is turned to a separation position, it cooperates with the first winding roller to clamp the tissue paper therebetween, and applies a reverse pulling force to split the tissue paper.

Trigger forward pivot limit for a trigger sprayer

ActiveUS7455198B2Prevents unintended and undesirable separationPotential problemLarge containersFire rescueSprayerEngineering
A manually operated trigger sprayer includes a feature that limits the forward pivoting movement of the trigger. By limiting the forward pivoting movement of the trigger, the novel construction of the trigger sprayer prevents the trigger from engaging against the nozzle assembly attached to the sprayer housing of the trigger sprayer and potentially dislodging the nozzle assembly from its attachment to the trigger sprayer housing.

Automatic welding machine

InactiveUS6866077B2Prevent forward movementWeld is also clearly improved visuallyLaminationLamination apparatusPlastic materialsEngineering
An automatic welding machine for planar plastic materials, such as sealing sheets, tarpaulins or films, the chassis, in the welding position, in addition to being carried by the driving unit and the pressure device, also being carried by a rigid guide wheel, preferably in the front region of the chassis. With respect to a pressure roller running essentially on the welded overlap region, the guide wheel is arranged in such a way that, during the welding, it runs along the bottom plastic material parallel to the edge of the top plastic material. In addition, the guide wheel has a narrow running surface. During the welding, the guide wheel runs along the edge of the overlapping plastic material and the pressure roller runs essentially on the weld region. Due to this configuration, the automatic welding machine can follow the edge in such a way as to keep to the track, so that guidance by the operator or frequent corrections of the welding direction are not necessary. This leads to an increased weld quality and also to a higher welding speed. There is less interference from the background or due to the welding device swinging in laterally.
