A landing leg assembly for a heavy duty commercial vehicle includes a first leg member defining an interior space, a second leg member telescopingly engaging the first leg member and movable between a retracted position and an extended position with respect to the first leg member, a gear assembly at least partially located within the interior space of the first leg member and operably coupled to the second leg member and configured to receive an input from a user to move the first leg member between the retracted and extended positions, the gear assembly including a shaft member and a gear member fixed for rotation with the shaft member, and an integral, single-piece bearing member including a bore that rotatably receives the shaft member, wherein the bearing member comprises a powdered metal and is directly welded to the first leg member.

A tractor assembly and an elevator. The tractor assembly includes: a traction sheave, having a traction means fitting surface and a first transmission surface on a peripheral surface thereof; a plurality of support wheels, configured to support the traction sheave, and each having a second transmission surface on a peripheral surface thereof; and support wheel bases, configured to support the support wheels through support shafts, wherein the first transmission surface of the traction sheave is in transmitting cooperation with the second transmission surfaces of the plurality of support wheels respectively. According to the tractor assembly and elevator of the present application, the support wheels are disposed to achieve the transmitting cooperation of the traction sheave during operation of the elevator and support the traction sheave, thus omitting the load and drive bearings required by a conventional traction sheave.

A lift assembly including a lifting structure, a lifting arm, a yoke structure fixed to the lifting structure, a pin pivotally coupling the lifting arm with the yoke structure, and an integrated anti-rotational assembly associated with both the yoke structure and the pin. The lifting structure can actuate relative to the ground between a lowered position and a raised position. The lifting arm is configured to actuate with the lifting structure between the lowered position and the raised position. The integrated anti-rotational assembly can inhibit rotation of the pin relative to the yoke structure about the longitudinal axis of the pin.

A drive train linkage includes a drive arm having a drive arm pivot axis, a driven arm having a driven arm pivot axis, at least one first coupling member extending between and being rotatably coupled to each of the drive arm and driven arm, and at least one second coupling member extending between and being rotatably coupled to each of the drive arm and driven arm so that the at least one second coupling member opposes the at least one first coupling member, where the at least one first coupling member and the at least one second coupling member are coupled to both the drive arm and the driven arm so to form a substantially zero mechanical deadband coupling between the drive arm and the driven arm.

An elevator system has an elevator shaft, an elevator car and a drive device for displacing the elevator car within the elevator shaft. The drive device is a linear motor that has a stationary part secured to a shaft wall of the elevator shaft and a movable part secured to the elevator car. The drive device has an air bearing between the stationary part and the movable part that keeps the stationary part spaced apart from the movable part via an air gap therebetween.

In a floating unit, a floating mechanism is provided with: a rolling portion that includes a holding portion fixed to one of a first member and a second member, a sphere held by the holding portion so as to be rotatable in all directions; and an opposing portion that is fixed to the other one of the first member and the second member, and has an abutment surface that abuts against the sphere. The abutment surface includes an inclined surface that is formed, over the entire region of the abutment surface in a circumferential direction around a reference position, so as to come close to a side, in the vertical direction, on which the sphere is arranged, while extending outward in the horizontal direction from the reference position.

An input gear assembly in which the input gear is coupled to the input shaft via a pair of spaced-apart pilot regions of the input shaft. One of the pilot regions is disposed adjacent to one of the bearings used, with the pilot region formed in or on the input shaft itself and engaging a corresponding internal surface of the input gear. Another of the pilot regions is formed in the inner bearing raceway of another of the bearings used, with the pilot region formed as an elongate portion of the inner bearing raceway of the input shaft and engaging another corresponding internal surface of the input gear. For manufacturing simplicity, this additional pilot region and the remainder of the elongate inner bearing raceway have the same material properties, surface treatment, straightness, and cylindricity. This arrangement prevents tilting of the input gear with respect to the input shaft and bearing shaft, thereby enhancing performance.

A crank assembly for displacing a load includes a motor and a displacement arm assembly. The motor includes a rotatable output shaft that defines a rotation axis. The displacement arm assembly includes a swingable crank arm and a support roller bearing. The swingable crank arm is coupled to the output shaft to swing about the rotation axis when the output shaft rotates. The swingable crank arm defines a pivot end adjacent the rotation axis and an opposite displacement end. The support roller bearing is rotatably supported on the swingable crank arm proximate the displacement end. The support roller bearing is configured to engage the load. The support roller bearing defines a bearing axis, which is substantially parallel to and offset from the rotation axis.

The present disclosure relates to a wheel connecting structure and a baby carrier. The wheel connecting structure includes a fixed base, a rotatable base, a rotating shaft and an anti-swing member. The rotatable base is rotatably connected to the fixed base by the rotating shaft. The anti-swing member has an abutting portion. The anti-swing member is arranged on one of the fixed base and the rotatable base, and the abutting portion abuts against the other of the fixed base and the rotatable base. The abutting portion is provided with a lubricating structure.

A caster 1 includes a wheel 10, a fork 20, a second member 20, and a rolling bearing 40. The rolling bearing includes an outer ring 40A, an inner ring 40B, and a plurality of rolling elements. The outer ring 40A includes a first outer ring 41 and a second outer ring 42. The inner ring 40B includes a first inner ring 43 and a second inner ring 44.
