The invention relates to a device for attaching a balancing weight (2) to a mounting surface (17) on an inner side (3) of a rim dish of a wheel rim (4) and provides for a mounting head (1) to be dimensioned in such a way that it fits into the rim dish. The mounting head (1) includes a support element (5), which is radially displaceable relative to the wheel rim (4) and on which a feeler element (6) is axially movably arranged, the feeler element (6) having a convex contact surface (14) and a receptacle (12) for at least one balancing weight (2), said receptacle being oriented towards the inner side (3). The mounting head (1) is configured in such a way that the contact surface (14) may be brought into contact with a boundary surface (18) of the inner side (3), and may be displaced along said boundary surface until the balancing weight (2) comes radially into contact with the mounting surface (17).

An apparatus for correcting an imbalance in a rotating shaft and a method for correcting the imbalance in a rotating shaft. The joint assembly includes a first joint member that is drivingly connected to at least a portion of second joint member via one or more torque transmission elements. At least a portion of a first shaft is drivingly connected to at least a portion of a first joint member and at least a portion of a second shaft is drivingly connected to at least a portion of a second end portion of the second joint member. A boot can is connected to at least a portion of a first end portion of the second joint member and one or more balancing elements are attached to at least a portion of the boot can.

A propeller shaft (1) that is a power transmission shaft has a shaft member (2) as a tubular body made of iron-based metal and a balance weight (3) made of iron-based metal and welded to an outer peripheral surface of this shaft member (2). At least a part of the balance weight (3) of the propeller shaft (1) is covered with a sacrificial metal coating (4) made of sacrificial corrosion prevention material that contains metal whose ionization tendency is higher than that of metal forming the shaft member (2). With this, it is possible to suppress local progression of corrosion at a periphery of the balance weight (3) and improve durability of the propeller shaft (1).

Turbochargers operate at extremely high speed, so balance of the rotating core is of the utmost importance to turbocharger life. A special balancing washer is added to the clamping region between the compressor nut and the nose of the compressor wheel to aid in keeping the wheel, nut, and stub-shaft on the turbocharger axis and to thereby prevent introduction of core unbalance.

An arrangement for fastening, at multiple fastening points, a power electronic device such as a frequency converter (1) to a base (2) susceptible to vibration, at least a portion of which fastening points are vibration-damped, and which fastening points are on two opposite sides of the frequency converter (1). The invention is realized such that there are at least two fastening points (3, 4; 3, 4, 5) on each of two opposite sides of the frequency converter (1), wherein fastening points (3, 4, 5) on one side are damped while fastening points (3, 4) on the other side are undamped.
