A single piece unitary metal coupling includes a first end, a second end, and a convolution between the first and second ends. The convolution includes at least one cylindrically-shaped tip end.

Coupling apparatus

A hybrid bearing system that has a self-lubricating portion and a grease lubricated portion each being disposed on the same surface, the system is adapted to accommodate at least two distinct wearing forces generated by different types of motions. The bearing system includes: a first member; a second member, the second member being configured to be rotatably received within the first member; a self lubricating machineable liner system disposed between the first member and the second member; a receiving area disposed on the self lubricating liner system and a portion of either the first or the second member; and a lubrication opening in fluid communication with the receiving area, the lubrication opening providing structure for disbursing a lubrication grease within the receiving area.

Hybrid bearing system

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention is a flyer bow having a first surface and a second surface in opposition to the first surface. The first and second surfaces are joined to form an airfoil shape. A channel passes through the flyer bow between the first and second surface and a wire guide is disposed within the channel. There is at least one orifice through one of the first and second surface thereby establishing fluid communication between the channel and the ambient atmosphere.

Flyer bow with integral enclosed wire guide

A flyer bow is presented for use with twisting machines to twist wires. The flyer bow has inner and outer surfaces, and at least one surface is curved to form an airfoil in cross section. The curved surface may be the outer surface or the inner surface. Both surfaces may be curved to form a symmetric airfoil. The inner surface has a wire receiving recess and a wear strip recess spanning the wire receiving recess. Aerodynamically shaped wire guides may be attached to the inner surface opposite to the wire receiving recess.
