Abstract: A membrane assembly for vacuum bagging includes an elongate sheet of flexible material capable of being rolled up into a cylindrical configuration and unrolled from the cylindrical configuration into a flattened-out configuration, a bistable tape spring attached to or captured by the elongate sheet, and an inflatable tube attached to or captured by the elongate sheet. The bistable tape spring has a first stable state which is a straightened-out state, a second stable state which is a rolled-up state, and a transition state between the first and second stable states. The inflatable tube is sealed at one end and has an orifice at the other end for admission of a fluid therethrough for inflation of the inflatable tube.

Abstract: There is provided a tool assembly for transferring locations and dimensions of a pattern of holes from a first structure to a second structure. The tool assembly has a transfer plate with a transfer plate pattern of transfer plate holes that include a plurality of oversize holes and two transfer plate index holes. The transfer plate pattern is substantially identical to the pattern in the first structure. The tool assembly has one or more alignment elements installed in the plurality of oversize holes. Each alignment element has a through opening in a coaxial alignment with the oversize hole. The oversize hole allows formation of an alignment variation gap between an exterior of the alignment element and an inner wall of the oversize hole. The tool assembly has one or more holding elements coupled to the transfer plate, each with a central through opening in coaxial alignment with the oversize hole.

Abstract: A tube hanger for a very early smoke detection system is provided. The tube hanger includes a tube hook configured to receive a tube, a suspension arm having a first end extending from the tube hook and a second end, and a support coupling mechanism extending from the second end of the suspension arm. The support coupling mechanism includes a first attachment mechanism configured to be coupled to a first frame type, and a second attachment mechanism configured to be coupled to a second frame type. The tube hanger further includes a third attachment mechanism extending from the support coupling mechanism and configured to be coupled to a third frame type.
