DEPLOYABLE FIELD LIGHT HAVING VERTICAL SAFETY FEATURES
Systems and methods disclosed herein are directed to a deployable field lighting apparatus that meets the requirements of a class 1, division 1 hazardous environment. All aspects of the electrical and mechanical components of the deployable field light are spark-resistant and impact resistant such that the raising, lowering and powering of the deployable field light may be accomplished in hazardous environments. Further, the deployable field light includes additional safety features that are suited to ensure that raised lighting components are prevented from crashing down during deployment or retrieval operations. The filed light prevents accidental falls and maintenance failures because all potential energy is controlled by vertical shaft screws with fixed and engaged screw nuts that prevent rapid vertical/linear motion in any direction. The deployable field light utilizes worm-gear mechanisms along with idler gear translational properties to exert safe control of vertical motion during any deployment operation.
Linear actuator and linear actuator assembling method
A linear actuator assembling method includes a semi-finished product assembling step and a threaded shaft assembling step. The semi-finished product assembling step is to form a semi-finished product, and the semi-finished product includes a case, a main gear, and a main gear bearing. The main gear and the main gear bearing are surrounded and restricted by the case, and the main gear bearing is sleeved on the main gear. In the threaded shaft assembling step, a threaded shaft is reversely assembled, and one end of the threaded shaft is inserted into the main gear to allow the end of the threaded shaft to be restricted by the main gear.
METHOD FOR PRODUCING A CMC-COMPONENT
A method is proposed for producing a CMC-component (6) comprising at least the steps of pyrolizing (2) a green body (1; 10) made of a fiber (15)-reinforced thermoplastic material (14) and infiltrating (4) the pyrolized green body by a liquid carbide forming substance (31). The fibers (15) of the green body (1; 10) are arranged in one or several strands (16), each of these strands (16) having a main extension direction. The lengths of the fibers (15) of each strand (16) are larger than the overall length (L) of the green body (1; 10) along the main extension direction of this strand (16).
Electric actuator
Provided is a ball screw device (31), including: a ball screw shaft (33); and a ball screw nut (32) which is rotatably fitted to an outer periphery of the ball screw shaft (33) through intermediation of a plurality of balls (34), wherein the ball screw shaft (33) performs a linear motion in an axial direction along with rotation of the ball screw nut (32), wherein the ball screw shaft (33) has a hollow shape having a hole portion (33b) extending in the axial direction, and wherein a stroke detection sensor (55) configured to detect an amount of displacement of the ball screw shaft (33) in the axial direction is arranged in the hole portion (33b).
Roller screw mechanism with magnetized means
The roller screw mechanism provides a screw having an outer thread, a nut surrounding and coaxial with the screw, the nut including an inner thread, and a plurality of rollers radially disposed between the screw and the nut and cooperating with the outer and inner threads. Magnets for attracting metal particles are disposed inside the roller screw mechanism.
Linear transmission device
A linear transmission device includes: an elongated shaft member, a moving module, a rolling unit, a return assembly, a sensor and a data receiving unit. The linear transmission device has a simple structure. The sensor is disposed at the junction of the first return pipe and the second return pipe of the return assembly to timely detect the change in the distance between the rolling elements, which can determine whether there is an abnormality in the shape of the spacers. With the sensor outputting detecting signals, it can stop the terminal immediately to confirm the condition of the workpieces and the machine, avoiding the structural damage of the machine and the workpiece caused by the continuous operation. The sensor can also serve as a medium for transferring data, further facilitating maintenance.
BORING APPARATUS AND METHOD
An apparatus for boring a wellbore, including a bit body having a first end, an inner cavity, and a second end. The first end is connected to a workstring that is configured to deliver a rotational force to the bit body. The inner cavity contains a profile having a first radial cam surface. The second end includes a working face containing a cutting member. The apparatus also includes a pilot bit rotatively connected within the inner cavity. A second radial cam surface is contained on a first end of the pilot bit. The first and second radial cam surfaces are operatively configured to deliver a hammering force. A second end of the pilot bit may include an engaging surface configured to engage a formation surrounding the wellbore. The bit body rotates relative to the pilot bit.

Ball screw locking apparatus
An apparatus for positively locking a ball screw in a lift position is described. The apparatus includes defined tooth disc and pawl housings, which interconnect to facilitate interoperation of locking components. A tooth disc is secured to the ball screw and actuators associated with each pawl can exert a downward force on each pawl, in order to force the pawls into engagement with the tooth disc via movement in a vertical plane. Owing to the shape, size and positioning of the pawl and tooth disc components relative to one another, and the vertical movement of the pawl members into engagement with the tooth disc, the apparatus of the present invention is capable of locking the hall screw in position at any point along the length of the ball screw, even if the pawls are out of alignment with the teeth, or recesses between adjacent teeth.
