==JIGGING SYSTEMS FOR FABRICATING TIMBER FRAMES AND APPLYING ATTACHMENTS TO MEMBERS THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240035294 titled 'JIGGING SYSTEMS FOR FABRICATING TIMBER FRAMES AND APPLYING ATTACHMENTS TO MEMBERS THEREOF

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a jigging system for fabricating a frame with attachments applied to its members. The system includes a support structure to hold the frame members in a plane and at least one jig to hold an attachment aligned to a defined axis. The jig abuts a face of one of the members, allowing for the attachment to be applied to the member.

* The innovation is a jigging system for efficiently fabricating frames with attachments.
* The system includes a support structure to hold the frame members in place.
* At least one jig is used to hold the attachment aligned to a defined axis.
* The jig abuts a face of one of the members, allowing for easy application of the attachment.

Potential Applications:
* Manufacturing industry: This jigging system can be used in various manufacturing processes that involve fabricating frames with attachments, such as in automotive or aerospace industries.
* Construction industry: The system can be utilized in constructing frames for buildings or structures, where attachments need to be accurately applied to the frame members.

Problems Solved:
* Alignment and positioning: The jigging system ensures precise alignment and positioning of attachments on the frame members, eliminating errors and inconsistencies.
* Efficiency and productivity: The system streamlines the fabrication process, reducing the time and effort required to apply attachments to the frame members.

Benefits:
* Accuracy: The jigging system ensures precise alignment and positioning of attachments, resulting in high-quality frames.
* Time and cost savings: The efficient fabrication process reduces production time and labor costs.
* Versatility: The system can be adapted for different frame designs and attachment types, providing flexibility in manufacturing processes.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

a jigging system for fabrication of a frame provided with at least one attachment applied to one or more members thereof, the system comprising: a support structure to support members arranged within a plane to define members of the frame; and at least one jig configured to hold a said attachment aligned to a defined axis that extends in one of orthogonal directions in the plane and is coaxial with a reference axis or is parallel thereto and spaced therefrom a predetermined distance in the other of the orthogonal directions, and to abut a face of one of the members transverse to the plane, whereby the attachment and member are located for application of the attachment to the member.
