Abstract: A full-round head nail having an offset head is configured with a gusset formed integrally between an undersurface of the offset head and a superior portion of a shank. The head of the nail is relatively thin, and the shank is positioned radially off center of the round head such that no heel is formed at a point tangential to both the head and the shank. The gusset has a lofted surface tapering radially from a roundness at the zero heel to a taper at the toe. The gusset reinforces the junction of the shank with the head, supports the toe of the head, and distributes the force of a load on the head through a longitudinal axis of the shank, preventing the toe from bending or yielding and prevents the shank from yielding to the stresses of the load applied.

Abstract: Core orientator 10 for a core drill 24 includes a face orientator 28 and a bottom orientator 30 supported by a shaft 50 which extends into a shroud 86. A  tubular extension 90 is coupled to the shroud 86 and is slidably coupled to a main body 12. The main body 12 includes first and second latches 16 and 18. The first latches 16 releasably lock the device 10 to a core lifter case assembly 20 disposed within the core drill 24, to selectively prevent the device 10 from advancing in an uphole direction within the core drill 24. The latching system 18 operates to prevent the device 10 from falling out of the core drill 24. Face orientator 28 includes a plurality of pins 32 which can move axially to provide a plurality of profile reference points to a facing surface of a hole to be drilled.  The bottom orientator 30 includes a plurality of balls 60 disposed within said respective braces 62. In initial operation, the device 10 is loaded into the core lifter case assembly 20 with the latches 16 abutting a forward most end of the assembly 20. Pins 32 are extended to the maximum extent out of shroud 86 and the balls 60 are able to rotate freely within the races 62. When the core drill 24 is brought into contact with the facing surface of the hole, the pins 32 are pushed backward to provide a profile of the facing surface until the shroud 86 contacts the facing surface. Then the shroud 86 is pushed in the uphole direction causing the tubular extension 90 to slide into the body 12. This releases a spring 132 causing the shaft 50 to clamp the races 62 to hold the ball 60 in a particular position commensurate with the bottom of a hole being drilled. The latches 114 are also released by the sliding motion of the extension 90 allowing the assembly 10 to be pushed into the core tube assembly 20 and associated core tube 22. The device 10 can be withdrawn with the core in a conventional manner to provide an indication of the orientation of the core.

Title: Method and apparatus for reducing web feed rate variations induced by parent roll geometry variations
Inventor: BINNER PAUL ALAN SR
IPC: B65H16/00

Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for reducing feed rate variations when unwinding a web material. The apparatus includes a rotational position and speed determining device for determining the rotational position and speed of the parent roll, a drive system for imparting rotational movement to the parent roll, a device for measuring the radius of the parent roll, and a logic device. The logic device generates an ideal speed reference signal and utilizes calculated and measured data to establish a corrected speed reference signal to make adjustments in the driving speed based upon the corrected speed reference signal to maintain a relatively constant feed rate. By dividing the parent roll into 1, 2,...n sectors, the data can be refined to a relatively high degree taking into account high speed data processing capabilities as well as operating system response times to make appropriate driving speed adjustments.
