| 20120015204 | STAINLESS STEEL ALLOY - Stainless steel alloy composition. The stainless steel alloy composition includes rounded carbides and free chromium in a ferrite matrix. The rounded carbides have particle sizes under 5 microns. The rounded carbides include a first quantity of niobium-containing carbide and a second quantity of chromium carbide, and are substantially free of large, irregularly-shaped carbides. | 01-19-2012 |
| 20110094079 | SNAP CLIP LUG - A method for disconnecting a snap clip lug. The method includes supplying a snap clip lug that is formed by a clasp member and a receptacle member. The clasp member has a resilient arm connected to a locking tab and the receptacle member has a sleeve that has a locking slot at one end. The resilient arm fits into the sleeve such that the locking tab engages the locking slot thereby retaining the resilient arm in the sleeve. The resilient arm is flexed in a lateral direction and the locking slot is disengaged from the locking slot. The clasp member is separated from the receptacle member, thereby disconnecting the snap clip lug. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20090072546 | QUICK DISCONNECT SWIVEL LUG - A quick disconnect swivel formed of a body, an arm, and a biasing member. The body includes a shaft, which extends generally outwardly from the body along a pivot axis. The arm includes a post, which extends generally outwardly from the arm, the arm defining an opening therein sized to receive the shaft so that the arm can be pivoted with respect to the body about the pivot axis between an opened position and a closed position, and the post and the body forming a lug when the arm is in the closed position. The bias member is operatively associated with the body and the arm and applies an axial force to the body and the arm. The body and the arm cooperatively engage one another to convert the axial force into a rotational force, the rotational force biasing the arm toward the closed position. | 03-19-2009 |
| 20090070973 | SNAP CLIP LUG - A snap clip lug, including receptacle member, clasp member and a post. Receptacle member has a body including a sleeve, first post formation means connected to the body, and a locking slot disposed in relation to the sleeve. The sleeve includes a retaining wall and an opening at one end for receiving the clasp member. Clasp member has a base, second post formation means connected to the base, and a resilient arm extending outwardly from the base and having a locking tab for engaging the locking slot. The locking tab is adapted to slidingly engage the retaining wall and to be received by the locking slot. The post, which is disposed perpendicularly between the receptacle member and the clasp member, is formed from first and second post formation means having engaged one another when the resilient arm is inserted in the sleeve. | 03-19-2009 |
