A method of supporting piping on a brace pipe includes providing a brace pipe attachment assembly comprising a first brace pipe attachment device, a second brace pipe attachment device, and a pipe hanger coupled to each of the first and second brace pipe attachment devices, the first brace pipe attachment device defining a first brace pipe channel and the second brace pipe attachment device defining a second brace pipe channel; inserting a first pipe end of the of the brace pipe through the first brace pipe channel; placing the pipe hanger under the piping to support the piping thereon; and inserting the brace pipe into the second brace pipe channel, wherein the second brace pipe attachment device is a hook partially encircling the second brace pipe channel and defining an open hook side, the open hook side allowing lateral access to the second brace pipe channel.

Method of supporting piping on a brace pipe

A brace pipe attachment mechanism includes a hook member comprising a hook and defining a first fastener hole; a base member defining a second fastener hole aligned with the first fastener hole, wherein the hook member is rotatable relative to the base member between a first position and a second position; and a fastener extending through the first fastener hole and the second fastener hole and configured to engage a brace pipe, wherein the hook member is rotatable about the fastener.

Brace pipe attachment mechanism

A brace pipe attachment mechanism includes an attachment device defining an attachment device body, the attachment device body comprising: an inner surface defining a brace pipe channel, the inner surface defining a gripping edge at least partially encircling the brace pipe channel; and a base portion, wherein a base fastener hole extends through the base portion to the brace pipe channel; and a fastener extending through the base fastener hole and into the brace pipe channel.

Example aspects of a stiffening system for a hanger assembly, a hanger assembly, and method of reinforcing a hanger assembly are disclosed. The stiffening system for a hanger assembly can comprise a stiffener rod; a brace member oriented parallel to the stiffener rod; a stiffening connector coupling the brace member to the stiffener rod, the stiffening connector defining a connector hook and a fastener hole, the connector hook defining a hook recess, a portion of the brace member received in the hook recess; and a connector fastener extending through the fastener hole, the connector fastener pressing the stiffener rod into a corner region defined between the brace member and the stiffening connector.

A combined thread forming and thread locking fastener is disclosed. A fastener includes three thread zones. A first thread zone utilizes a first thread forming thread profile with an increasing outer diameter. A second thread zone extends from the end of the first zone utilizing the first thread forming thread profile and continues with a constant diameter. The third thread zone utilizes a thread locking thread profile continuing along substantially the remainder of the shaft of a fastener.

Thread forming and thread locking fastener

A rotationally rechargeable electrical apparatus includes an electronic device with a back, a center of mass and a battery. An electrical generator at the back of the device has a rotor secured to the device and a stator having a flat contact surface extending parallel to the back of the device. The rotor and stator are rotatably connected together so that they can rotate relatively about an axis that extends perpendicular to the contact surface and passes through the center of mass. A voltage regulating circuit is connected electrically between the generator and the battery so that when the apparatus is placed on a support so that the contact surface frictionally engages the support and the device is spun about the axis, the generator produces an electrical output that is conditioned by the regulator circuit to charge the battery.
