2. Retaining ring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retaining_ring

   Spiral retaining rings are axially installed into housings/bores (internal) or onto shafts (external), making 360° contact with the groove. Spiral retaining rings have no ears or lugs to interfere with the assembly. These rings are manufactured by coiling flat wire into the shape of the finished retaining ring.

3. Circlip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circlip

   A circlip (a portmanteau of "circle" and "clip"), also known as a C-clip, snap ring, or Jesus clip, [1] is a type of fastener or retaining ring that consists of a semi-flexible metal ring with open ends that can be snapped into place into a machined groove on a dowel pin or other part to permit rotation but to prevent axial movement. There are ...

4. Safety wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_wire

   A safety wire is used to ensure proper security for a fastener. The wire needed is long enough to reach from a fixed location to a hole in the removable fastener, such as a pin — a clevis fastener, sometimes a linchpin or hitch-pin through a clevis yoke for instance — and the wire pulled back upon itself, parallel to its other end, then twisted, a single end inserted through a fastener ...

5. Positive locking device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_locking_device

   These practices are not a means of obtaining or maintaining torque, rather a safety device to prevent the disengagement of screws, nuts, bolts, snap rings, oil caps, drain cocks, valves, and parts. Three basic methods are used in safetying; safety-wire, cotter pins, and self-locking nuts. Retainer washers and pal nuts are also sometimes used. [2]

6. Kirschner wire - Wikipedia

   The wire is then attached to some form of traction so that the pull is applied directly to bone. In traction of the femur for example, the protruding ends of the wire are fixed to the legs of a horseshoe shaped frame which maintains tension in the wire while the crook of the horseshoe is attached via line and pulleys to weights which maintain ...

7. Slip ring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ring

   This can be used in starting a slip-ring induction motor, for example. A slip ring is an electromechanical device that allows the transmission of power and electrical signals from a stationary to a rotating structure. A slip ring can be used in any electromechanical system that requires rotation while transmitting power or signals. It can ...
