A device can include a bar; a dynamic clamp assembled to the bar and configured to move with respect to the bar during use to capture dimensions of each of a plurality of physical objects to be measured; an orientation sensor; and a distance sensor configured to sense movement of the dynamic clamp with respect to the bar.

System of measuring objects in an environment

An oriented distance measuring system can include a rail; an odometer including a wheel; a first controller; and a first sensor in communication with the first controller, the first sensor configured to sense rotation of the wheel, the first controller configured to collect data from the first sensor, the data being associated with the rotation of the wheel; and a second sensor configured to sense roll, pitch, and yaw of the system.

Locating, measuring, and error-checking system

A vertically stabilized shelf bracket assembly having at least two support strips on which a plurality of shelf brackets are mounted. A cover is provided that aesthetically enhances the shelf bracket assembly and stabilizes it at the same time. In one embodiment, the cover includes a cap and a hanging casing. In one embodiment, apertures are provided in the shelf brackets to support a rod. In another embodiment an adjustable mounting slot is provided in the support strips to facilitate their parallel installation.

Vertically stabilized adjustable shelf bracket assembly

A self-contained viscous liquid dispenser having an improved vent valve is provided. The vent valve includes a plug member having a sealing ridge at its perimeter. The vent valve is activated at reduced pressure differentials between the inside and outside of the dispenser. The vent valve also provides redundant sealing capability.

Vent plug for self-contained viscous liquid dispenser

A dispenser for dispensing metered amounts of a viscous liquid includes a liquid reservoir and a pump chamber having an opening in communication with the reservoir. A pump mechanism including a pump cylinder with a dispensing channel therethrough is configured with the pump chamber and is movable from a rest to a pressurizing position upon actuation thereof to pressurize liquid within the pump chamber. A dispensing orifice is defined at one end of the dispensing cylinder. A check valve mechanism is disposed in the opening. During shipment or storage, the pump cylinder is locked in pressurized position. When locked in pressurized position, the dispensing channel engages the check valve to seal the opening and also prevent flow from the pump chamber to the dispensing channel.

Viscous liquid dispenser having leak prevention device

A self-contained viscous liquid dispenser includes a housing defining an internal liquid reservoir, and an opening defined through a front surface of the housing. An insert member is fitted through the opening, extends into the reservoir, and defines an internal pump chamber having a back end open to the reservoir and a front end open to the outside of the housing. A pump cylinder is slidably disposed and retained in the chamber. The pump cylinder is movable within the pump chamber from a rest position to a pressurizing position to pressurize and dispense liquid within the pump chamber through a delivery channel and out a dispensing orifice in the pump cylinder. The pump cylinder may be a multiple component device.

Self-contained viscous liquid dispenser

A viscous liquid dispenser includes a housing that defines an internal liquid reservoir. A dispensing pump mechanism is disposed in communication with the reservoir and has a delivery end extending from the housing for manual operation by a user. A mounting mechanism is configured as an integral component of the housing and provides the dispenser with the ability to be detachably connected to complimentary mounting structure on a wall surface. The configuration of the dispenser allows for a significantly increased capacity (volume) without a corresponding increase in the weight of the dispenser materials as compared to conventional dispensers.

Adapters according to the invention are configured for solid or coreless rolls of material dispensed in a roll dispenser. The dispenser has slots defined on the side walls thereof along which the adapters move. The adapters include a carriage having opposite side members attached to a transverse support arm. A pin is disposed on the outboard surface of each side member and engages in the slots defined in the dispenser side walls. A protrusion is disposed on an inboard surface of each side member and engages at least partially into a recess or divot formed in the sides of the solid or coreless roll.

Coreless roll product adapter and dispenser

A viscous liquid dispenser includes a housing that defines an internal liquid reservoir. A dispensing pump mechanism is disposed at least partially within the reservoir and has a delivery end extending out of the reservoir. A mounting mechanism is configured as an integral component of the housing and provides the dispenser with the ability to be detachable connected to complimentary mounting structure on a wall surface. A unique dispensing pump mechanism is also provided for use with any manner of viscous liquid dispenser.
