WORK IMPLEMENT ASSEMBLY USING A CENTER ADAPTER MATING WITH A NOTCHED BASE EDGE
An adapter includes a first leg, a second leg, and a throat portion that define a slot defining a direction of assembly onto a work implement assembly, a lateral direction that is perpendicular to the direction of assembly, and a vertical direction that is perpendicular to the direction of assembly and the lateral direction. The throat portion further includes a first throat side surface disposed along the lateral direction and a second throat side surface disposed on the opposite side of the throat portion along the lateral direction. The first throat side surface defines a first adapter cover receiving recess.
WORK IMPLEMENT ASSEMBLY USING A CORNER ADAPTER MATING WITH A NOTCHED BASE EDGE
The first and the second legs and the throat portion of an adapter include an upper surface and a lower surface that at least partially define a slot, and a clearance void disposed at the closed end of the slot. A ratio of the clearance void width to the clearance void height ranges from 2.0 to 3.0.
Systems and methods for damping photovoltaic panel arrays
Damper includes a housing having proximal and distal ends, a first attachment point proximate the distal end of the housing, a rod having proximal and distal ends at least partially disposed within the housing and moveable relative to the housing between an extended position and a compressed position, a second attachment point proximate the proximal end of the rod, a piston joined to the rod within the housing proximate the distal end of the rod, the piston including a bypass groove having a flow area defined therein to allow fluid to flow from a first side of the piston to an opposing side of the piston, and a first washer disposed proximate a first end of the piston and at least partially covering the flow area of the bypass groove.
REACTION FORCE GENERATION UNIT
Provided is a reaction force generation unit that enables stabilization of a reaction force to be generated and enhances processing accuracy. In a pressed body 20, three domes including a first dome 22-1, a second dome 22-2, and a third dome 22-3, bulge from a base 21. A leading end 23 of each dome 22 faces an opposing surface 11 of an opposing member 10. When the base 21 is pressed by the pressing member 13, the leading ends 23 of the domes 22 move in a direction relatively close to the opposing member 10. At this time, the domes 22 are elastically deformed and cause an appropriate reaction force with respect to the handle. In a natural state where the pressed body 20 is not subjected to any pressing force, axes X1, X2, and X3 of the domes 22-1, 22-2, and 22-3 are substantially parallel to each other, and acute angles formed by the axes X1, X2, and X3 and a normal line X0 of the opposing surface 11 are substantially similar to each other at a predetermined angle 0 larger than zero degree.
Vibration damper for a motor vehicle and a method for producing a press fit between a damper inner tube and at least one separating plate
A vibration damper for a motor vehicle may comprise a damper outer tube, a damper inner tube having a lateral surface of the damper inner tube and arranged coaxially in the damper outer tube, a separating plate arranged coaxially in a region of the lateral surface of the damper inner tube, and a sealing element arranged coaxially circumferentially on the damper inner tube on the separating plate. In a region of the separating plate arranged coaxially on the lateral surface of the damper inner tube, a groove for the separating plate may be formed on the lateral surface of the damper inner tube. The separating plate may be arranged in the groove, and the connection between the groove and the separating plate may be press fit, at least in the radial direction.
Shock absorber
A shock absorber includes a seal member that is slidably in contact with a piston rod, a friction member that is formed of an annular elastic rubber section slidably in contact with the piston rod and an annular base section to which the elastic rubber section is fixed, and an communication path that reduces pressure difference between both sides of the friction member in axial direction. The elastic rubber section is provided with a minimum inner diameter section, a first enlarged diameter section, and a second enlarged diameter section. A force is applied to the piston rod by the friction member such that movement in an outward direction of the cylinder becomes difficult and movement in an inward direction of the cylinder becomes easy.
HIGH TEMPERATURE FLUID ISOLATOR WITH LARGE DYNAMIC DISPLACEMENT CAPABILITY
The present disclose describes a fluid isolator mount. The mount provides a long service life under high temperatures and large dynamic displacements. The mount utilizes metallic flexures and dynamic fluid chambers. The mount provides vibration isolation at selected frequencies while precluding damping effects.
TUBULAR VIBRATION DAMPING DEVICE
A tubular vibration damping device includes an inner shaft member and an outer tubular member connected by a main rubber elastic body. A plurality of first identification protrusions protruding outward are formed apart in a circumferential direction on one axial end surface of the main rubber elastic body, and a plurality of second identification protrusions protruding outward are formed apart in the circumferential direction on another axial end surface. The first identification protrusion and the second identification protrusion are arranged at positions differing from each other in the circumferential direction in an axial projection, and the first identification protrusion and the second identification protrusion have a comprehensive overall pattern in which weight balance is maintained on a central axis of the main rubber elastic body.
VIBRATION ISOLATOR
Any one of a bracket and a first attachment tool includes a press-fit portion. Another one of the bracket and the first attachment tool includes a tubular press-fitted portion. The press-fit portion is press-fitted to the press-fitted portion. The press-fitted portion includes a tubular rigid portion having an inner surface with recesses depressed and an elastic film portion made of an elastic body bonded to an inner surface of the rigid portion. The press-fit portion includes: a first protrusion portion projecting in a direction perpendicular to the press fitting direction, the first protrusion portion biting into the elastic film portion; and a second protrusion portion that partially overlaps with the rigid portion as viewed in the press fitting direction with the second protrusion portion located inside the recess.
Vibration-damping device
A vibration-damping device (1) of the present invention includes a tubular first attachment member (11), a second attachment member (12) that is attached to any one of a vibration generating portion and a vibration receiving portion, an elastic body (13) that connects the first attachment member and the second attachment member with each other, and a bracket (B) that is connected to the remaining one of the vibration generating portion and the vibration receiving portion and is press-fitted into the first attachment member. The second attachment member includes a stopper wall portion (14) which surrounds the first attachment member from radially outside. A penetration hole (11b) which is open toward the stopper wall portion is formed in the first attachment member, and a stopper elastic body (19) covering the penetration hole is installed on an inner circumferential surface of the first attachment member. The stopper elastic body is elastically deformed by the bracket and protrudes to an outer circumferential surface side of the first attachment member through the penetration hole.
