The first sprocket engaging tooth includes a first radially outer surface provided radially outward of the outer peripheral surface. The second sprocket engaging tooth includes a second radially outer surface and a third radially outer surface. The third radially outer surface is provided radially outward of the outer peripheral surface and radially inward of the second radially outer surface. A first distance is defined from the outer peripheral surface to the first radially outer surface. A second distance is defined from the outer peripheral surface to the third radially outer surface. The second distance is shorter than the first distance.

A drive system 20, 20 for rotating a wheel 11, 11 of an aircraft landing gear 10, 10, is disclosed having a drive element 24, 24, a motor 21, 21 operable to rotate the drive element, and a driven gear 25, 25 adapted to be attached to the wheel. The drive system has a drive configuration in which the drive element is capable of meshing with the driven gear to drive the driven gear, wherein the drive system further comprises a transmission error measurement apparatus 30, 40, the apparatus configured to obtain, over time, measurement data of one or more characteristics of the drive system when in the drive configuration, the measurement data providing an indication of a transmission error between a torque commanded by the motor and a resulting torque at the driven gear. An aircraft 100 and a method of providing an indication of a transmission error in a drive system is disclosed.

A pedal-type vibrational apparatus includes a seat body, a pedal assembly, a gear plate assembly, a drive assembly and an eccentric assembly, like a lever structure. By treading the pedal assembly, the gear plate assembly drives the drive assembly to rotate. The drive assembly is connected with the eccentric assembly. The user can fully exercise the muscles of the body during exercise, and the vibrational effect generated by the eccentric assembly can stimulate the acupuncture points of the body to improve the blood circulation. The left and right pedals can be treaded in turn to continuously drive a gear to rotate in the same direction so as to achieve the effect of acceleration and to enhance vibrations.

Constant velocity joints or homokinetic joints are used for the continuous transmission of rotational movements and torques. They transmit the rotational movement of a driving shaft to a shaft to be driven without changing the speed or torque. The transmission takes place independently of the speed, torque, or the value of a diffraction angle and independently of the speed at which this diffraction angle changes.

Constant velocity joints with a diffraction angle of 90 are equipped with specially shaped gear pairs, which are held together by a spring-loaded inner joint.

In this joint transmission, a diffraction angle of 90 is achieved while the shafts to be connected to fixedly mounted bevel- and spur gear pairs are connected to each other, so that no spring-loaded inner joint is needed. Therefore, high engine speeds and high torques can be transmitted.

A drive device includes a shaft rotatably supported by a first bearing and a second bearing. The first bearing is disposed in a shaft hole of an output frame end. The second bearing is disposed in a bearing box of an opposite-to-output frame end. An oil seal is fixed in the shaft hole and is closer to an output end than the first bearing is, and is in sliding contact with an outer circumference of the shaft. A biasing member is housed in the bearing box and biases an outer race of the second bearing toward the output end. Accordingly, a deflection amount and a bend amount of the shaft at the location where the oil seal is disposed may be reduced.

The life estimation system is a life estimation system that estimates a life of the reduction gear including a reduction mechanism. The life estimation system includes a sensor that is to be mounted onto the reduction gear and detects information for identifying a stress generated in a specific part of the reduction gear, and an estimating unit that identifies the stress generated in the specific part based on detection information obtained by the sensor and estimates the life of the specific part based on the identified stress.

An actuator for a transfer case includes an actuator member, a face cam mechanism, and a motor. The actuator member includes a circumferential flange and an annular body extending from an inner periphery of the circumferential flange. The annular body includes a circumferential slot opposite the flange defined between two end walls formed by the annular body. One of the end walls includes a bearing member coupled thereto. The face cam mechanism includes a follower coupled to a cam member. The cam member is configured to displace axially when rotated. The follower is disposed within the slot. In a first range of motion, the annular member is rotated independent of the face cam mechanism. In a second range of motion, the bearing member engages the follower to rotate the second cam member relative to the first cam member, and the follower moves axially along the bearing member.

Examples in the disclosure relate to an apparatus and method for disassembling automatic transmission shaft assemblies. The apparatus may include a body portion defining multiple gear lands oriented normal to a pressing direction, each gear land having a semi-circular shape partially encompassing a central opening. The apparatus may include a moveable portion limited to movement between generally opposing positions, movement thereof reconfiguring the apparatus to enable positioning of a plurality of transmission shaft assemblies each having a unique configuration. The method may include sequentially placing each transmission shaft on the fixture, pressing the transmission shaft to remove press-fit components, and reconfiguring the fixture to enable positioning of a next shaft assembly, each shaft assembly having a unique configuration of press-fit components.
