This method and apparatus contemplate the making of pocketed springs for mattresses and cushions by inserting compressed springs at intervals along and between the plies of a folder two-ply strip of sheeting, maintaining the springs compressed therein while seaming the edges of the plies to form a sleeve about the compressed springs as the strip is drawn lengthwise toward a release point at which each spring is free to expand to spread the plies. This transposes the edge seaming to mid-height of the spring. A previously made cross seam incorporating the transposed edge seaming limits the forward movement of the spring and a further such cross seam made behind the spring encloses the spring within an individual pocket of the sleeve. The repetition of spring release and cross seaming behind each spring released produces a string or chain of pocketed springs with the closing seam of the sleeve at mid-height of the springs.

Disclosed is an improved spear head overshot. The spear head overshot is particularly useful as part of a cable-guided fishing assembly. The spear head overshot essentially comprises one or more pivot lugs, the pivot lugs comprising jaw sections and release point sections, an actuator slide, a wave spring, a pivot mandrel, a screw attached to the pivot mandrel, and a compression spring threaded over the screw. In operation, a spear head is inserted into the spear head overshot until the spear head passes the jaw sections of the pivot lugs, at which time the spear head is locked into place. To release the spear head, the release point sections of the pivot lugs are manually forced inward. Simultaneously, the jaw sections of the pivot lugs are forced outward, thereby allowing the spear head to be removed from the spear head overshot. In a cable-guided fishing operation, this process can be repeated as often as necessary.

A safety mechanism to prevent unintended ejection of a staple or fastener in a stapler or fastening tool. A low-start version of the stapler has a handle that when pressed pivots a lever which lifts a striker and energizes a power spring. At the release point, the striker is released and accelerated under spring bias into a staple, ejecting the staple by impact blow. A high-start version has the striker stationary in the upper position as the power spring is energized. In the safety mechanism, a movable hook or arm selectively prevents the striker, and linked components thereto, from completing an operational cycle. In one embodiment the safety mechanism includes a working surface sensing button bar operating in conjunction with the hook that latches the striker. The safety mechanism can also be a pivoting lock bar that engages the working surface, which surface pivots the lock bar into engaging the power spring, handle, and / or striker thereby preventing such components from reaching the release point.

A handling system with an improved fairlead is provided for protecting a tow cable wherein the cable breaking strength exceeds the system-rated tension load; the fairlead being positioned collinearly between the system bellmouth and winch. A guide slot passes through the fairlead positioning the cable higher than the winch release point and bellmouth entry point, maintaining the cable down-slope as the cable exits the fairlead. The slot has a hemispherical portion tapering inward to a groove extending downward. Near the groove bottom, at the fairlead end nearest the bellmouth, is a cutting device. Under tension, the cable rides in the hemispherical portion of the groove. If tension suddenly increases from a snag, the resulting force drives the cable down into the groove where the cable is cut by the device, separating before the force damages the system. The constrained cable end is securely held in place by the taper.

A method and system are described for assigning reliability metrics to error correction coded bits or symbols that are decoded. Survivor and non-survivor paths through a portion of a trellis representation within a sliding window are determined and recorded. Primary and non-primary traceback paths through a portion of the trellis representation are determined from the recorded data. If the primary and non-primary traceback paths diverge at a release point, a reliability metric is assigned to the bit or symbol estimate corresponding to the release point. This metric is derived from the difference between the path metrics of the primary and non-primary traceback paths. Alternately, if the two paths diverge through all or a portion of a release zone, a reliability metric is assigned to the block of bit or symbol estimates corresponding to the portion or more of the release zone where the two paths diverge from one another. Again, this metric is derived from the difference between the path metrics of the primary and non-primary traceback paths.

A spring actuated stapler includes a lever releasably linked to a striker at a lever front end. An elongated power spring is linked to the striker so that raising the lever front end deflects the power spring. The lever and power spring pivot about a common fulcrum structure. The fulcrum structure includes a rear facing surface and the lever pivots about the rear facing surface when the lever is near a lever release point. This pivot location is adjacent to the power spring, at a bottom of the structure of the fulcrum. With the lowest possible pivot location the lever retracts and releases from the striker more quickly than if the lever pivots about a higher location at a fulcrum “axial center”. The release action is therefore more consistent, and less sensitive to manufacturing variations of the stapler.
