In an electric motor-pump assembly, two working diaphragms, each delimiting a working chamber, are cyclically driven by a crank drive via connecting rods. The crank drive includes eccentrics for each connecting rod, which are placed on an axial bearing journal in the extension of an output shaft of an electric motor. In order to ensure a rotationally fixed connection between the eccentrics and the bearing journal to be produced and in order to ensure an angularly precise position of the two eccentrics, each of the eccentrics is connected to the bearing journal by a positively locking engagement.

A cartridge drive gear assembly for holding a drum coupling includes a drive gear having an outer surface and an inner surface, the inner surface including inner projections which extend into the interior of the drive gear and includes at least two voids disposed on opposing sides of the inner projections, and at least one slot disposed in the inner surface.

The invention relates to a shaft-hub connection (1), particularly for mounting a rotor wheel on a shaft (10). The shaft-hub connection (1) comprises a shaft (10), a hub (20) and a filler material (30). The shaft (10) comprises an end section (11) on one end. A receiving region (21) is arranged in the hub (20). The end section (11) is arranged in the receiving region (21), with an intermediate layer of the filler material (30) positioned inbetween. The filler material (30) forms undercuts in the axial and rotational direction, in relation to the end section (11) and in relation to the receiving region (21), so as to create a positive embodiment of the shaft-hub connnection (1).

A lock mechanism includes a snapping part and a pressing part configured to be slidably connected with a first body. The pressing part includes a pressing end and an abutting end opposite to the pressing end. The abutting end is configured to abut against the snapping part to make the snapping part engage with a second body and to lock the second body onto the first body.

A rotary working component for use in a pump, compressor, blower or the like having an impeller, rotor, fan blade or other similar component includes a metallic insert and a composite structure overmolded on the metallic insert. The metallic insert can include an aperture adapted to mount the rotary working component to a drive shaft and a fluted catenoid or truncated spherical or spheroid outer surface having smooth contours between fluted regions thereof.

The disclosure is directed to an apparatus for generating energy in response to a vehicle wheel rotation. The apparatus may include a first roller comprising a curved roller surface configured to be positioned in substantial physical contact with a first wheel of the vehicle. The first roller may be configured to rotate in response to a rotation of the first wheel. The apparatus may further include a first shaft rotatably couplable to the first roller such that rotation of the first roller causes the first shaft to rotate. The apparatus may further include a first generator operably coupled to the first shaft. The generator may be configured to generate an electrical output based on the rotation of the first shaft and convey the electrical output to an energy storage device or to a motor of the vehicle that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy to rotate one or more wheels of the vehicle.

An agricultural harvester includes a chassis, an axle assembly carrying the chassis, a plurality of hub assemblies including a first hub assembly and a second hub assembly, the hub assemblies coupled to a corresponding end of the axle assembly, and a plurality of ground engaging devices each being coupled to a corresponding hub assemblies. The ground engaging devices support the axle assembly and the chassis. The axle assembly includes an extendable/retractable axle for altering a distance between the ground engaging devices that are coupled to the hub assemblies, and a connecting rod extending/retracting from a central portion of the axle assembly, the connecting rod also coupled to a portion of the first hub assembly. The connecting rod is generally vertically displaced from the extendable/retractable axle.
