US Patent:

7077263, Jul 18, 2006

Filed:

Oct 11, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/247570

Inventors:

Thomas W. Richardson - Hinsdale IL, US
Mary Jane Richardson - Hinsdale IL, US

International Classification:

B65G 17/00

US Classification:

1988442, 24 31 B

Abstract:

A belt fastener assembly for fastening belt ends together comprises: first and second retention plates receiving and retaining substantially abutting belt ends between the plates, and defining a plurality of bolt holes. A plurality of threaded bolts each extend through a bolt hole of each of the first and second plates and also extend through portions of the belt positioned between the plates, to retain the first and second plates and the belt ends together, with nuts carried on the bolts. Washers are also carried on the bolts, each having an aperture and having, in an original condition prior to use, a frustoconical inner area surrounding the aperture to enlarge the aperture to a size of at least the outer diameter of the bolt threads. This facilitates placement of the washers on the bolts. Then, the washers may be flattened to decrease the size of the apertures, to retain the bolts in position extending through a retention plate prior to full assembly.

US Classification:

2924351, 29464, 2952506, 292815

Abstract:

A system for splicing a conveyor belt with belt fasteners is disclosed. A base assembly aligns the belt, belt fasteners and rivet holes thereof with swage structures for securing the rivets. A guide assembly has a rigid guide block with cylindrical pilot holes, and a guide membrane of resilient material. Guide pins are receivable by guide bores for aligning the base and guide assemblies with the pilot holes, rivet holes, and swage structures in registry. The guide membrane including openings aligned with the pilot holes. The openings have a pair of slits defining flaps deflectable to permit the rivet to pass therethrough, and a central hole or cut-out. The flaps and the cut-out assist in centering the rivet with the belt fastener rivet holes. The system uses a single-rivet driver, a multi-rivet driver, a pneumatic driver, or an electric hammer.

Inventors:

Mary L. Richardson - Washington DC, US

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

705 8

Abstract:

A method and system for providing an employment placement service that provides incentives to encourage use of the employment placement service by both employers and job applicants. In a representative embodiment, the invention broadcasts job openings, presents detailed information about the employers advertising the openings, provides means for employers and applicants to exchange information (e. g. , résumés), and provides incentives for both employers and job applicants to use the employment placement service. The primary components include a job listing database, an employer information database, a résumé database, and a series of graphical user interfaces that integrate the databases and give the employers and applicants access to view and manipulate the information. The system can also save user queries for various purposes.

Filed:

Sep 22, 1993

Appl. No.:

8/125418

Inventors:

Thomas W. Richardson - Hinsdale IL
Mary Jane Richardson - Hinsdale IL

International Classification:

B23P 1900

US Classification:

29816

Abstract:

A belt fastener assembly attachment apparatus attaches belt fastener assemblies to the end of a belt with rivets and with a non-manually powered rivet assembly driving tool. A guide template having a plurality of guide apertures is alignable with the anvil die apertures of an anvil die plate. Each guide aperture receives and aligns the rivet assembly dispensing barrel of the non-manually powered rivet assembly drive tool to the anvil die apertures of an anvil die plate and rivet receiving apertures of the belt fastener. Guide pins carried by the guide template and received within guide apertures of the anvil die plate maintain the guide template apertures in registration with the anvil die apertures of the anvil die plate and the rivet receiving apertures of the belt fastener. A rivet assembly supply strip presents each rivet assembly one at a time in accurate registration with the rivet assembly dispensing barrel of the non-manually powered rivet assembly drive tool to assure accurate driving of each rivet assembly.

Appl. No.:

8/411557

Inventors:

Thomas W. Richardson - Burr Ridge IL
Mary Jane Richardson - Burr Ridge IL

International Classification:

B23P 1100

US Classification:

227155

Abstract:

An apparatus for orienting a fastener in a clasping arrangement with a workpiece, the fastener presenting a first leg and a second leg joined by a bight intermediate the first leg and the second leg, comprises a deflector for engaging the first leg and the second leg. The deflector comprises a generally planar surface and a single cavity intersecting the surface in a substantially elliptical opening having a major axis and a minor axis. The cavity has at least a first interior wall and a second interior wall. The first wall slopes from the opening in a first direction toward a depth limit; the second wall slopes from the opening in a second direction toward the depth limit. The depth limit is substantially coincident with one of the first axis and the second axis. The deflector structure and the fastener interact when meeting in response to a driving force by the first leg being deflected along the first wall in the first direction and by the second leg being deflected along the second wall in the second direction.
