ROTOR CLIP FOR BRAKE ASSEMBLY
A clip for a rotor disk of a brake assembly, the clip comprising: a first half comprising a first sheet metal strip having a body portion and a first end and a second end bent in a first direction relative to the body portion; and a second half comprising a second sheet metal strip having a body portion having a length the same as the length of the body portion of the first sheet metal strip, the second sheet metal strip having a first end and a second end bent in a second direction, opposite to the first direction, relative to the body portion of the second sheet metal strip; and wherein one of the first end of the first sheet metal strip and the first end of the second sheet metal strip is provided with a first pin protruding from the end.
CONTROL DEVICE FOR HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE
A control device is provided for a human-powered vehicle that includes a generator configured to output electrical power, an electric power storage device electrically connected to the generator, and a component having an actuator actuated by electrical power from at least one of the generator and the electric power storage device. The control device includes a controller electrically connected to at least one of the generator and the electric power storage device. The controller is configured to control an operation state of the component in accordance with information relating to at least one of an output state of the generator and a store state of the electric power storage device.
Hub lifting and pick-and-place equipment
Hub lifting and pick-and-place equipment includes a fixed plate. The lower portion of the fixed plate is connected with a vertical plate. One side of the bottom of the vertical plate is fixedly connected with a fixed frame. The bottom of the vertical plate is hinged with a safety plate. The safety plate and the vertical plate are also connected with each other through shielding oil cylinders. A wire holder is mounted on one side of the vertical plate.

Splined drum and electric motor engagement assembly
The rotor of an electric motor unit has a web portion partially enclosing the remainder of the unit and terminating in a circumferentially extending rim. The brake drum defines an engagement surface for drum brake linings, and has an outboard end defining a flange securable to the wheel hub. The brake drum also includes an open inboard end, partly covered over by a dust guard, and a circumferential wall extending between the outboard and inboard ends and surrounding the engagement surface. By way of keys and slots or recesses, a reinforcing ring interlocks the circumferentially extending rim of the web portion and the circumferential brake drum wall. The reinforcing ring is secured to the circumferentially extending rim and to the wall of the brake drum at a location disposed axially between the rim of the web portion and the brake drum lining engagement surface.
Wheel end assembly having a vent passage
A wheel end assembly having a spindle, a hub, and a rotary seal assembly. The spindle defines a spindle air passage, a vent passage, and a spindle hole. The hub defines a hub air passage. The rotary seal assembly fluidly connects the spindle air passage to the hub air passage. The vent passage fluidly connects an inboard cavity to the spindle hole.
ROTARY MECHANISM WITH ADJUSTABLE TONE WHEEL
A rotary mechanism comprises a fastener and a tone wheel. The tone wheel comprises a first radial flange, a second radial flange, a first target, and a second target. The first and second targets mounted respectively to the first and second radial flanges to be sensed by a sensor. Each of the first radial flange and the second radial flange comprises a plurality of mounting points, the plurality of mounting points of the first radial flange and the second radial flange provided for adjustment of a diameter of the tone wheel. The fastener is provided to mount the first radial flange and the second radial flange to a shaft at a selected mounting point among the plurality of mounting points of each of the first radial flange and the second radial flange to set the diameter of the tone wheel. An associated method is disclosed.
Rotor drive key and fastener assembly
In some examples, an assembly includes a rotor drive key configured to fit around a wheel boss defined by a wheel. The rotor drive key includes a support structure. The assembly further includes a fastener configured to extend the wheel boss and the support structure in a substantially axial direction of the wheel when the rotor drive key fits around the wheel boss, where the fastener is configured to limit movement of the rotor drive key relative to the wheel boss. The fastener may be rotated to establish and/or increase a contact pressure between the fastener and the rotor drive key to help the fastener limit movement of the rotor drive key relative to the wheel boss.
STAKING ASSEMBLY, STAKING ASSEMBLY MANUFACTURING METHOD, HUB UNIT BEARING, HUB UNIT BEARING MANUFACTURING METHOD, AUTOMOBILE, AND AUTOMOBILE MANUFACTURING METHOD
Axial relative movement of an auxiliary member (30) and a hub body (22z) is performed, the hub body (22z) and an inner race (21) are combined with each other in an axial direction, and a part of the hub body (22z) deformed by a blade (33) of the auxiliary member (30) is disposed inside an engagement concave portion (26) of the inner race (21).
METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A BRINELLING-RESISTANT HUB BEARING UNIT
A method of manufacturing a wheel hub bearing unit includes providing a bearing ring having at least one raceway surface, the bearing ring preferably being a bearing outer ring which is preferably formed of a steel having a carbon content of between about 0.55% by weight and 0.60% by weight. The bearing ring is carbonitrided within a furnace having an enclosed atmosphere containing ammonia gas. The bearing ring is then tempered by heating the ring to at least five hundred degrees Celsius (500° F.). Next, the induction hardening the at least one raceway surface of the ring is induction hardened, preferably by means of special inductor coil. Finally, the raceway surface(s) of the ring is machined to desired final dimensions and surface finish.
