A manually operated propelling method for skateboard or longboard skating comprising of an attachable foot pedal mechanism. The mechanism translates linear motion from the user to rotational motion at the wheel of the skateboard. This mechanism allows the rider to propel the skateboard forward without having to remove a foot from the skateboard deck. This is achieved by pushing a spring loaded pedal mounted on the board, which moves a bracket containing a unidirectional ratchet styled gear, which then drives a driving gear that is clamped to the one of the skateboard trucks, which in turn interacts with a driven gear attached to one or more wheels of the skateboard.

This invention is a method in which large waves are separated from a floating platform unit by using a partition plate unit so that the floating platform unit enclosed by the partition plate unit is in a state of almost no wave. These large waves outside the partition plate unit are to move many floating ball units up and down so that the racks provided on each of the floating ball units are capable of rotating the power gears extending from the floating platform unit, and the rotational forces of power gears are regulated through ratchets and consolidated to produce a single direction rotating power, and then to drive external generators. The racks on the floating ball units and the power gears on the floating platform unit are pulled together by using springs. The resilient force of the two springs simultaneously helps the rack's up and down in smooth reciprocating motion. Then the power gears directly and indirectly drive the multiple coaxial gear to output a single-direction spinning force to drive the external generators. The invention has the advantages of super high-efficiency, simple structure, easy to set up, able to be fixed or not fixed on the shore, and able to be set up offshore, and the size of the entire mechanism can be easily extended or adjusted linearly in terms of power demand. It can fully utilize the available sea area.

A device for rotating a toothed wheel, including a linear piezoelectric motor including: a passive element having an elongated shape, a piezoelectric actuator capable of axially moving the passive element in a bidirectional manner, a transmission member fastened to the passive element, meshing with a toothing of the wheel in such a way as to rotate the wheel by one tooth in a first direction of rotation when the passive element is moved axially in a first direction of movement, a jumper mobile between two end positions, including a lowered position in which it blocks a rotation of the wheel in a second direction of rotation opposite to the first direction of rotation.

A multi-speed transmission includes a driving shaft that rotates as a rotational force is input; a plurality of driving gears which are coupled to the driving shaft and rotate by the rotation of the driving shaft; a plurality of transmission gears which is engaged with the driving gear; a transmission shaft which includes a plurality of pawl assemblies that are at least partially moved inward and outward on an outer peripheral surface, is coupled with the transmission gear, and is selectively coupled with at least a part of the transmission gear; a transmission control means for selectively controlling the inward and outward movement of at least a part of the pawl assembly; a plurality of driven gears which are engaged with at least a part of the transmission gears; and a driven shaft which is coupled with the plurality of driven gears.

A torque transfer control mechanism that suppresses output-side displacement, and including a rotation control unit that maintains a locked state when an input torque rotating a transfer mechanism is not applied, and releases the locked state when the transfer mechanism rotates. The rotation control unit includes an internal gear and lock plates that include outer teeth that can engage with inner teeth of the internal gear. When an input torque is not applied, the inner teeth of the internal gear engage with the outer teeth of the lock plates, and when the transfer mechanism is rotated, engagement between the inner teeth and the outer teeth is released. Thus, even when torque is applied from the output unit side, engagement between the inner teeth and the outer teeth is not released by the torque.

A wrench rotational axis re-positioning apparatus includes a housing, an interior cavity defined in the housing, input and output gear assemblies mounted to the housing and disposed in the interior cavity in a meshing contact with one another and rotatable about respective first and second axes arranged in a right angle configuration with one another, the input and output gear assemblies having respective input and output fittings for connection to respective drive and driven devices, and a ratcheting mechanism mounted to the housing and extending from exterior thereof into the interior cavity such that the ratcheting mechanism is presettable in either one of first and second orientations relative to the output gear assembly to enable the latter to correspondingly rotate in one or the other opposite direction about the second axis in response to the input gear assembly being rotated in either opposite direction about the first axis.

A wave energy converter deep sea mounting system consists of a floatable platform, an enclosure, a wave energy converter mechanism, a generator, a float arm, and a float. The enclosure is mounted atop the floatable platform by an enclosure support axle, about which the enclosure can rotate. The wave energy converter mechanism and the electrical generator are mounted within the enclosure. The float arm is connected between the enclosure and a stationary float, and as the floatable platform rises and falls due to wave action, the enclosure is thus rotated. The wave energy converter mechanism has a stationary input pulley connected through at least one pulley system to a generator output pulley, multiplying input rotations from the float arm action to the electrical generator in order to generate electricity. As the enclosure rotates about the stationary input pulley, the remaining pulleys are forced to spin through rotation about the stationary input pulley.
