Rotating a casing during a cementing operation to ensure efficient displacement of cement slurry. More specifically, embodiments are directed towards a sub and rotating tool that are positioned above a first cement operation, wherein the rotating tool is positioned in a kickoff point or build section of a horizontal well.

An actuating apparatus has a first and a second actuating element that delimit a pressure chamber. The actuating apparatus has a rotary decoupling bearing coupled via a compensation assembly to the second actuating element for joint movement along the spatial axis. The compensation assembly comprises a first ramp element which is supported axially on the second actuating element and is preloaded relative to the second actuating element by a first preloading apparatus for rotation about the spatial axis and a second ramp element coupled to the rotary decoupling bearing. An axial overall length of the compensation group along the spatial axis changes in the case of a rotation, of the first ramp element relative to the second actuating element. The compensation assembly has a blocking element and a blocking toothing system in blocking engagement with a counter-blocking toothing system of the first ramp element

Systems and methods for an electric drive axle are provided. In one example, the electric drive axle may include an electric motor-generator rotationally coupled to a gearbox having a one-way clutch mounted on an output shaft and operable in an engaged configuration and a disengaged configuration, where in the engaged configuration, the one-way clutch transfers rotational energy from the output shaft to an output gear rotationally coupled to a plurality of drive wheels. The gearbox further includes a mode adjustment mechanism including a lock ring rotationally coupled to the output shaft and configured to selectively engage an input gear and the one-way clutch in a plurality of operating modes.

A release bearing arrangement is provided for a piston of a clutch cylinder of a multi-plate clutch, which piston is axially movable along a shaft of a motor vehicle. The release bearing arrangement includes a release bearing for axial force transmission of an actuating force introduced by the piston to a transmission device of the multi-plate clutch. The release bearing has a first bearing plate, a second bearing plate and a plurality of rolling elements, the rolling elements being arranged so as to roll between the first bearing plate and the second bearing plate. The release bearing arrangement has a self-centering device for radial self-centering of the release bearing relative to the shaft and/or relative to the piston that is axially movable along the shaft.

An actuation mechanism for a clutch, includes: an actuation element designed to be applied with an actuating force and to be shifted in an actuation direction by same; a transfer element designed to carry out a shift in the actuation direction; and a compensation mechanism designed to apply a reinforcing clamping force for the frictionally engaged transfer of the actuating force between the transfer element and the actuation element, when an actuating force is applied to the actuation element. The compensation mechanism has a friction element and a counter surface which are designed to bring about the reinforcing clamping force via a frictional connection when applying the actuating force. The friction element and the counter surface are designed to generate the reinforcing clamping force via a supporting force resulting from a deflection of the actuating force. The reinforcing clamping force has at least the value of the supporting force.
