Portable fixture facilitates pressure testing of instrumentation fittings

Portable fixture facilitates pressure testing to detect possible leaks in instrumentation fittings mounted on tank bulkheads. It uses a vacuum cup which seals a pressure regulator adapter around one side of the fitting to be pressure tested. Leakage is detected with a gas sniffer.

Portable machine welding head automatically controls arc

Portable weld tool makes weld repairs out-of-station and on the side opposite the original weld. It provides full automatic control of the arc voltage, current, wire feed, and electrode travel speed in all welding attitudes. The device is readily adaptable to commercially available straight polarity dc weld packs.

Variable-speed, portable routing skate

Lightweight, portable, variable-speed routing skate is used on heavy metal subassemblies which are impractical to move to a stationary machine. The assembly, consisting of the housing with rollers, router, and driving mechanism with transmission, weighs about forty pounds. Both speed and depth of cut are adjustable.

A prototype high power portable lamp

Portable lighting system serves the combined work and photographic needs of manned spacecraft efforts. This system enables the lamps to be momentarily brightened while the camera shutter is opened. The brightness is adequate for black and white or color photography and yet the increased heat load is nil.
