Speed bump and speed bump system
A speed bump and a speed bump transportation system are provided. The speed bump comprises: a base; a cover disposed opposite to the base and configured to be movable relative to the base; an electric-power generation device associated with the cover to scavenge energy through the cover and convert the energy into electrical energy; a first detection device for detecting a force condition of the cover and sending a first detection signal to a communication device when the cover is pressed; the communication device electrically connected to the first detection device and for sending a first communication signal when receiving the first detection signal, wherein the electric-power generation device is electrically connected to the communication device and the first detection device respectively to supply electric-power to the communication device and the first detection device.
Mechanical Converter
The present disclosure relates to a mechanical converter of irregular bi-directional circular motion into continuous and consistent single direction circular motion through a system of gears, drive shafts, freewheels, and flywheel. The system works by transforming the circular movement, both clockwise and counterclockwise from the input shaft into continuous rotation of an output shaft through the use of a pair of free wheels solidly connected to the input shaft which transfers the alternating motion, depending on the rotation of the input shaft, to two parallel secondary shafts.
Oscillating lever driven reversible motor
An oscillating reversible motor providing a novel means of converting oscillating motion into selectable clockwise or counterclockwise rotary motion. More particularly, the invention presents a novel approach to a foot or hand pedal driven apparatus with which a traditional rotary water propeller or other output device may be employed in both forward and reverse directions of relative motion.
BICYCLE DUAL POWER TURNING TRACK, RACK, PINION, AND ONE-WAY BEARING PROPULSION SYSTEM
A dual powered propulsion system for use with a human powered vehicle is provided. The system includes a connecting rod with a front end operatively coupled to yoke-connected forearm bars. The system also includes a splitter coupled to a rear end of the connecting rod, wherein the splitter is coupled to a first rack and a second rack that operate with a first and second pinion gear to turn a crank axle. This system supplies rotational power to the crank axle in a single rotational direction as the connecting rod is oscillated up and down and back and forth. Even though a solid connecting rod is used to transfer power from the oscillating forearm bars to the crank axle, the vehicle is steerable to the right or left as a result of the use of a carriage, on rollers, and a turning track operatively connected to the forearm bars.
Wave powered electricity generator
A wave powered electricity generator is provided. 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 almost no wave. The 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 gears extending from the floating platform unit, and the rotational forces of gears are regulated through ratchets and consolidated to produce a power for driving generators. The racks on the floating ball units and the 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 gears directly and indirectly output a force to drive generators.
DRIVE MECHANISM FOR A MEDICATION DELIVERY DEVICE AND MEDICATION DELIVERY DEVICE
A drive mechanism for a medication delivery device containing a resilient member and having a rotation member configured to be rotated in a first direction during setting of a dose of a medication and to be rotated in a second direction during delivery of the dose, where the rotation member is coupled to a drive member that is coupled to a piston rod such that on dose delivery the piston rod is displaced in a distal direction to dispense a medicament and where the resilient member prevents movement of the drive member and the piston rod during dose setting.
Bicycle dual power turning track, rack, pinion, and one-way bearing propulsion system
A dual powered propulsion system for use with a human powered vehicle is provided. The system includes a connecting rod with a front end operatively coupled to yoke-connected forearm bars. The system also includes a splitter coupled to a rear end of the connecting rod, wherein the splitter is coupled to a first rack and a second rack that operate with a first and second pinion gear to turn a crank axle. This system supplies rotational power to the crank axle in a single rotational direction as the connecting rod is oscillated up and down and back and forth. Even though a solid connecting rod is used to transfer power from the oscillating forearm bars to the crank axle, the vehicle is steerable to the right or left as a result of the use of a carriage, on rollers, and a turning track operatively connected to the forearm bars.
Gear device for clutch
A gear device for a clutch contains: a drive gear, a first clutching member, and a second clutching member. The drive gear includes multiple first actuation protrusions and multiple second actuation protrusions, wherein each of the multiple first actuation protrusions has a beveled face and a flat top face, and each of the multiple second actuation protrusions has a beveled face and a flat top face. The first clutching member includes multiple third actuation protrusions, each of the multiple third actuation protrusions has a beveled face and a flat top face, and the first clutching member includes a first positioning disc and a first resilient element. The second clutching member includes multiple fourth actuation protrusions, each of the multiple fourth actuation protrusions has a beveled face and a flat top face, and the second clutching member includes a second positioning disc and a second resilient element.
SYSTEM FOR ADJUSTING THE CONVEYOR BELT TENSION FORCE WITHIN AN AGRICULTURAL HARVESTER
In one aspect, a system for adjusting the conveyor belt tension force within an agricultural harvester may include a conveyor having a first roller, a second roller spaced apart from the first roller, and a conveyor belt configured to engage the first and second rollers. The system may also include a tensioner assembly having a ratcheting mechanism configured to selectively adjust a position of the first roller relative to the second roller to adjust a tension force exerted on the conveyor belt.
Electric drive apparatus for vehicle
A vehicle electric drive apparatus is provided with a single hydraulic pump and left-side and right-side drive units. The left-side drive unit includes a left-side electric motor and a left-side transmission mechanism. The right-side drive unit includes a right-side electric motor and a right-side transmission mechanism. One of rotary shafts of the left-side transmission mechanism and one of rotary shafts of the right-side transmission mechanism constitute a pair of pump-drive rotary shafts. The single hydraulic pump is connected to the pair of pump-drive rotary shafts through respective one-way clutches, and is to be driven by one of the pump-drive rotary shafts that is rotated at a speed higher than the other of the pump-drive rotary shafts, so as to output a hydraulic pressure.
