The tube defines a rear end with a peripheral fold forming a rear groove, and an extension extending beyond the rear groove, the extension defining a first outer edge and being configured to be folded toward an outer side of the tube to form a crimping lip. The at least one hole is bordered by a recessed ring having a form complementary to that of the rear groove of the rear end of the at least one tube. The extension is configured to be folded above a second outer edge of the recessed ring and blocked in the groove. | 11-05-2015 |
20160107225 | RETENTION AND RELEASE MECHANISM FOR A POWER TOOL - A manually-actuated retention and release mechanism is disclosed for use with a blind threaded rivet setting tool. The mechanism has a cap with an internal screw thread which retains a drive screw immovably to a spindle such that axial or rotational movement of the spindle results in concomitant movement of the drive screw. The cap cooperates with a manually-actuable bar via series of serrations formed on the cap, each of which serrations is a latch point for the bar. Movement of the bar into or out of engagement with the serrations dictates whether or not the cap is locked in position. | 04-21-2016 |
20160108950 | PLUG-IN COUPLING HAVING AN ELASTICALLY DEFORMABLE COUPLING PART AND INSTALLATION METHOD THEREFOR - An elastically deformable coupling part for a plug-in connection for connecting a first component and a second component, has an inner connection portion, in which a head of a pin-like element of the second component can be accommodated by a detent or snap-in connection. In addition, the coupling part has an outer fastening portion, which can be connected to a keyhole of the first component by a bayonet closure. The fastening portion comprises at least one radial contact surface. At least one first radial projection, which forms a bayonet gap for a rotational accommodation of the first component, is arranged at an axial distance from the radial contact surface. At least one second radial projection, which forms a locking gap for the first component between the second projection and the radial contact surface by a movability directed inward, is arranged at an axial distance from the radial contact surface. | 04-21-2016 |
