| 073110010 | TESTING IMPACT DELIVERING DEVICE (E.G., A HAMMER) | 7 |
| 20080295572 | Automated System for Impactor Testing - One aspect of the invention provides an automated system for performing repeated testing using an impactor which comprises a cup manifold defining multiple impaction cups, an impactor head defining transfer passages, and a nozzle manifold which defines multiple nozzles and is disposable between the cup manifold and the impactor head, so that in the assembled impactor a route is defined for through-flow via the impaction cups, the nozzles and the transfer passages. The system comprises an impaction station for performing impaction testing using the assembled impactor; a cup manifold recovery station for recovering sample material from the impactor cups in a solvent; an impactor head cleaning station; and at least one handling system for assembling the impactor for impaction, and for subsequently disassembling the impactor and delivering the cup manifold and the impactor head to their respective stations. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20080282768 | Method for calibrating a backlash impulse device in a sport implement - The calibration of a backlash impulse device in a sport implement ( | 11-20-2008 |
| 20080264145 | Two-Way Linear/Dynamic Force Multiplying Device - That uses the weight of an electric car ( | 10-30-2008 |
| 20100257917 | HAMMER TEST BENCH - A test bench for testing a hammer and hammer tool comprising: a bench frame; a load cell assembly mounted on the bench frame for absorbing the impact delivered by the hammer; and a movable mounting deck for securing the hammer to the bench frame and for moving the hammer with the hammer tool into a test firing position against the load cell assembly and delivering an impact force against the load cell assembly. The load cell assembly comprises a pneumatic air bag assembly constructed to dissipate the impact force of the hammer. Other aspects include a load cell assembly for testing a hammer and hammer tool and a method for test firing a hammer tool. Hydraulic hammers generating forces between 200 ft-lb and 12,000 ft-lb can be adequately test fired. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20080282767 | IMPACT TEST APPARATUS - An impact test apparatus allows a retaining member to retain a test object. The retaining member is attached to an elastic member. When a weight is made to collide against the test object, impact is applied to the test object. The test object is subjected to free oscillation in response to the impact. The elasticity of the elastic member accepts the movement of the retaining member. Damping of the free oscillation of the test object is minimized. The impact test sufficiently reflects the influence of the free oscillation. | 11-20-2008 |
| 073110020 | Shot peener | 2 |
| 20100077831 | MEASURING INTENSITY OF SHOT PEENING IN AREAS WITH DIFFICULT ACCESSIBILITY - Determining shot peening intensity by affixing a Almen test strip to a shot peening surface, removing the peened strip from the shot peening surface, measuring an arc height of the shot peened strip, and determining peening intensity on the surface from the measured arc height. The strip may be affixed with an adhesive such as rubber cement and may be a sub-size strip cut from a full size Almen strip. The arc heights of the sub-size strip may be correlated to arc heights of the standard strips. A sub-size strip may be affixed to and a full size standard strip may be mounted on a peening surface of a block and be simultaneously shot peened. Arc heights may be measured on a gage having support means for holding both strips. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20090107211 | AIRFOIL SHOT PEENING TEST STRIPS - A shot peening operation is developed utilizing a test strip and test strip holder. The test strip holder has an internal cavity, and the test strip lies over that cavity. Parameters of a shot peening operation can be developed utilizing the test strip, and those parameters will be acceptable for use with a part having internal cavities. | 04-30-2009 |
