Male threaded Heim Joint (A) the casing (B) the ball swivel (C) the opening for attaching hardware (D) the threaded shaft. A rod end bearing, also known as a heim joint (N. America) or rose joint (U.K. and elsewhere), is a mechanical articulating joint.
Ball chain detail Dogtags on ball chain. Ball chain or bead chain is a type of chain consisting of small sheet metal balls connected via short lengths of wire. [1] The balls are hollow and have two small antipodal holes. These holes accept a short length of wire deformed on the end like a rivet so that the end is bound inside the ball. The wire ...
In some cases (e.g., D-subminiature connectors), short standoffs may be used to receive the jackscrews that lock the connection together. In contrast, some spacers may look similar to standoffs but are unthreaded pieces of tubing which let the entire bolt pass through.
The pilot pin is located in the centre of main contact circle on 4- and 5-pin connectors. On 3-pin (2P+E) connectors, it is located on the contact circle opposite the ground pin. The other connectors are located 105° on either side of the earth pin, rather than 120° as in the smaller variants, to make room for the pilot pin.
A swivel is a connection that allows the connected object, such as a gun, chair, swivel caster, or an anchor rode to rotate horizontally or vertically. Swivel designs
A safety wire is used to ensure proper security for a fastener. The wire needed is long enough to reach from a fixed location to a hole in the removable fastener, such as a pin — a clevis fastener, sometimes a linchpin or hitch-pin through a clevis yoke for instance — and the wire pulled back upon itself, parallel to its other end, then twisted, a single end inserted through a fastener ...
Line Source connectors (top) mated with Line Drain connectors (bottom). Panel Drain (female) connectors, for feeding power in to a portable distribution cabinet. Powerlock is a range of single-pole electrical connectors used for temporary high-current, low-voltage (up to 1000 V AC) applications, [2] similar to but considered safer than camlock ...
Chassis or panel connectors permanently attached to a piece of equipment so users can connect a cable to a stationary device; PCB mount connectors soldered to a printed circuit board, providing a point for cable or wire attachment.
