Locator Bushing Mechanism For Modular Welding Tables

摘要

The present invention will improve the efficiency of setting up a modular welding table by reducing the time it takes to properly aligning the plates on top of the frames, thanks to the design features of a tapered flange and a cylindrical protrusion as described and disclosed herein. Another advantage of implementing the design disclosed herein is that the plates can have double its useful life, if one side's surface get worn out, the plates can be flipped over and use the other side's surface.

主权项

1. A locator bushing mechanism for modular welding tables, comprising,
a cylindrical bushing further having a larger tapered flange at the upper end and a cylindrical protrusion at the lower end; a cylindrical recess portion is made at the upper end and a cylindrical through hole is made at the lower end, said recess portion and said through hole is made along the axial direction of said cylindrical bushing; a screw with its nut portion sized to fit inside the cylindrical recess portion and its threaded stem portion sized to fit inside the through hole portion; wherein the height of said cylindrical bushing is smaller than the thickness of a plate of a modular welding table, creating a gap between the surface of said cylindrical bushing and top surface of a table frame.
