Driving Device, Fixing Device and Image Forming Apparatus
A driving device includes: a first driving source; a second driving source; a first gear to which a driving force is transmitted from the first driving source; a second gear to which a driving force is transmitted from the second driving source; a third gear that engages with the first gear and the second gear; and a fixation shaft that pivotally supports the third gear, the fixation shaft being disposed such that a center of the fixation shaft, a rotation center of the first gear and a rotation center of the second gear are disposed on a straight line in which the fixation shaft is provided through the third gear; and a hole having a diameter for compensating eccentricity of the first gear, the second gear and the third gear is formed in the third gear.
TRANSMISSION STRUCTURE OF CORELESS TUBULAR MOTOR
A transmission structure of a coreless tubular motor includes a motor main body, a motor connecting seat, a primary gear ring, a primary planetary gear assembly, a brake outer sleeve, a secondary planetary gear assembly and a tertiary planetary gear assembly; the motor main body is a coreless motor; a brake driving member and a brake driven member which are coaxially provided are provided in and pass through the brake outer sleeve; the brake driving member is connected to an output end of the primary planetary gear assembly, the brake driven member is connected to an input end of the secondary planetary gear assembly, the brake driving member is in transmission connection with the brake driven member, and a braking assembly connected to the brake driving member and the brake driven member is provided on the inner side of the brake outer sleeve in the circumferential direction.
Portal gear for model vehicles
A portal gear and a method to implement a portal gear for a model vehicle are provided. The portal gear may include a drive shaft attached to an input gear and an axle attached to an output gear. The portal gear may further include a housing to vertically contain the input gear and the output gear. Wherein the drive shaft transfers a rotational torque from an upper location to a lower location via a gear reduction resulting from the input gear rotating the output gear.
TORQUE CONVERSION DEVICE
A torque conversion device has: a second rotor having a second rotating shaft parallel to a first rotating shaft of a first rotor; link portions having first mounting portions attached to the first rotor, and second mounting portions attached to the second rotor, the link portions interposed between first rotor and second rotor; and weights mounted to the link portions and located on either side of the first mounting portions. The distance between first mounting portions and second mounting portions is equal to the distance between first rotating shaft and second rotating shaft, and the distance between first rotating shaft and first mounting portions is equal to the distance between the second rotating shaft and the second mounting portions.
Synchronous belt drive system
A synchronous belt drive system comprising a first obround sprocket having a toothed surface and at least one linear portion disposed between two arcuate portions, the arcuate portions having a constant radius, the linear portion having a predetermined length, a sprocket having a toothed surface, the sprocket engaged to the first obround sprocket by an endless toothed member, and the first obround sprocket having a magnitude and a phase such that an angular displacement timing error between the sprocket and the first obround sprocket is less than 1.5 degree peak to peak.

GEARED OVER TRAVEL STOP
A system for stopping rotation of a first gear and a second gear on a shaft, The first gear and second gear are concentric and rotatable about said shaft. The first gear and the second gear are driven by the same input system and the first gear and the second gear are configured to rotate at differential speeds and independently to each other. The first gear comprises a first end stop and the second gear comprises a second end stop and the first end stop and the second end stop are configured to engage each other when the first gear and the second gear have each rotated a predetermined number of turns. Engagement of the first end stop with the second end stop is configured to prevent rotation of the first gear and the second gear and cause a stall in the system.
Powered telescoping drive system
A power telescoping external vehicle rearview assembly comprising a drive gear assembly for telescopically moving a rearview head between a retracted and an extended position is disclosed. An embodiment of the rearview assembly comprises a bracket mountable to a vehicle, a rearview head telescopically mounted to the bracket via a plurality of arm assemblies, a rearview element mounted to the rearview head, an electric motor mounted to the rearview head, and a gear assembly connected between the motor and the plurality of arm assemblies. An embodiment of the gear assembly comprises pinion drive gear assemblies with rolling clutches for selectively disengaging the motor from the arm assemblies, a fixed clutch assembly for transferring power from the motor to the pinion drive gear assemblies, and a drive shaft connecting the fixed clutch assembly to the pinion drive gear assemblies.
