A rotating power tool assembly includes a rotating power base and a modular drive head. The rotating power base may be configured to rotate a spindle, and the modular drive head may be configured to be detachably coupled to the rotating power base. The modular drive head may comprise a torque control clutch, a working tip, and a torque value indicia. The torque control clutch may be non-adjustably structured to implement a torque limiting slip event that prevents the working tip from further rotation, despite continued rotation of the spindle, in response to the working tip being subjected to torque in excess of a discrete torque value. The torque value indicia may be externally visible and may comprise a visible characteristic that correlates to the discrete torque value.

An electrically isolated adapter may include a drive body made of first metallic material extending along a common axis, a driven body made of a second metallic material extending along the common axis, and an isolation assembly formed of insulating material disposed between the drive body and the driven body. The drive body may include a drive head configured to interface with a socket or fastener. The insulating material has a resistance to electrical current that is higher than the resistance to electrical current of at least one of the first metallic material and the second metallic material. The driven body may include a drive receiver configured to interface with a protrusion of a driving tool. A portion of one of the drive body or the driven body is received inside a portion of the other of the drive body or the driven body such that the drive body and driven body overlap each other along the common axis.

A flexible bit holder may include a drive body having a receiving orifice formed therein, a drive body having a shank and a flexion assembly. The receiving orifice may be configured to receive a bit, and the shank may be configured to interface with a driver to receive rotational energy from the driver. The flexion assembly may be disposed between at least a portion of the drive body and the driven body to operably couple the drive body and driven body. The flexion assembly may be configured to transfer torque applied to the driven body by the driver to the drive body. The flexion assembly may be formed of flexible material such that the drive body is rotatable relative to the driven body about a common axis of the drive body and the driven body.

A vehicle video display verification system, comprising a camera carried by the vehicle; a display unit positioned in the vehicle displaying images captured by said camera; a verification sensor monitoring the status of image information from said camera being displayed on said display unit; and, a video control unit receiving said image information from said camera and outputting said image information to said display unit, and receiving feedback information from said verification sensor; wherein said video control unit records said image information from said camera and said feedback information from said verification sensor for establishing confirmation of an image display status on said display unit in the event of a vehicle accident.

Vehicle video display verification system

A socket joint for carrying a mirror head or indirect vision system on a support tube to be mounted to a vehicle and a mirror or indirect vision arrangement comprising such socket joint and a mirror head or indirect vision system is provided. The socket joint comprises a support tube with at least one opening to be attached to a vehicle, a joint base contacting the support tube, at least one anchor extending through said at least one opening in said support tube, and at least one fastener engaging the at least one anchor and extending through a fastening hole in the joint base into the anchor. By the engagement of the fastener in or with the anchor, the portion of the anchor located within the support tube engages an interior surface of said support tube and said support tube is clamped between anchor and joint base.

Socket joint with integrated tube anchors

A mirror assembly includes attachments for connecting a mirror retaining plate and a connector assembly, and methods for connecting a mirror retaining plate and a connector assembly, are provided.

Mirror mounting assembly

A socket joint for a mirror assembly having a first concave portion receiving a support tube that attaches to the vehicle. A pair of anchors disposed in the first concave portion extend through openings in the support tube. The anchors project outwardly from the first concave portion into the support tube. Each anchor engages an interior surface of the support tube. A fastener engages each anchor from a front side of the socket joint to clamp the support tube between the anchor and first concave portion. A central connecting post extends outward from the front side of the socket joint for cooperating with various assembly components to pivotally mount a mirror head. A second concave portion is disposed around the central connecting post which receives a complementary convex portion of the mirror head housing so that the housing can pivot on the second concave portion around the central connecting post.
