Drive wheel and cart
A drive wheel in which the rotational axial center of a wheel along the vertical direction intersecting the axial center of the axle is arranged shifted in the horizontal direction orthogonal to the axial center of the axle with respect to the axial center of the pivot shaft. When a radius R1 of the wheel, center distance R2 between the rotational axial center and the axial center of the pivot shaft, rotational frequency n1 of the wheel, rotational frequency n2 of the pivot shaft, rotational speed V1 of the wheel, and steering rotational speed V2 of the wheel rolling on a floor surface while turning the pivot shaft satisfy V1=V2, relations of V1=2R1n1, V2=2R2n2, and n1=n2 (R2/R1) are satisfied.
Driving apparatus having improved engagement
A driving apparatus includes a driving input gear with first gear teeth, a columnar shaft, and a driven gear that engages the driving input gear. The driven gear includes a cylindrical boss portion, a cylindrical rim portion, a web, and second gear teeth. The second gear teeth are formed at an outer peripheral surface of the rim portion. The first gear teeth are first helical teeth twisted in a first direction with respect to a direction that the rotary drive shaft extends. The second gear teeth are second helical teeth twisting in a second direction that is the opposite of the first direction. The rim portion is tapered, radially decreasing toward the end to which the web is linked. The through-hole of boss portion has an inner diameter larger than an outer diameter of the shaft.
TRACKLESS TUGGER TRAIN AND METHOD FOR STEERING A TRACKLESS TUGGER TRAIN
The subject matter of the invention is a trackless tugger train (100) having at least one transportation module (10) and at least two axle modules (11), wherein each transportation module (11) is arranged between two axle modules (11), wherein each axle module (11) has a wheel axle (12) and a steering device for steering the wheel axle (12), wherein the steering devices of the axle module (11) are embodied in each case in such a way that each steering device steers the axle module (11) which is assigned to it, independently of a steering device of another axle module (11).
Axle assembly having a wheel end assembly and a gear reduction unit
An axle assembly having a spindle, an axle shaft, and a wheel end assembly. The wheel end assembly includes a hub and a gear reduction unit. The gear reduction unit includes first and second side gears, a case, and a pinion gear that is rotatably disposed on a pinion pin. The case is rotatable with the hub.
Adjustment mechanism
The invention relates to an adjustment mechanism that includes a set ring gears which are arranged coaxially towards a central axis and which each include a cylindrical toothing system, two eccentric wheels with beveloid gears which mesh with the cylindrical toothing systems of the ring gears, eccentric axes which are inclined at an angle towards the central axis, and a central shaft that is driven by a drive shaft onto which the eccentric wheels are mounted. The set of ring gears include a center ring gear that is circulating and two outer neighboring ring gears which are solidly fixed.
DIFFERENTIAL LOCK ACTUATOR SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MOVING FLIGHT CONTROL SURFACE
A differential actuator system for controlling a flight control surface is provided, which includes a first control lane subsystem, a second control lane subsystem, a differential subsystem and a differential lock subsystem. The differential subsystem includes a first gear set forming a first load path from the first control lane to the flight control surface, and a second gear set forming a second load path from the second control lane to the flight control surface. The differential lock subsystem operably couples to the first gear set and the second gear set and is switchable between a locked state to couple the first and second gear sets in a torque-summing mode for moving the flight control surface and an unlocked state to couple the first and second gear sets in a velocity-summing mode for moving the flight control surface. Control signals issued from a controller operate the differential actuator system.
Wheel end assembly
A wheel end assembly that includes a hub, a hub cap, first and second spider retainers, and a spider having a spider shaft. The hub and the hub cap cooperate to define an internal cavity. The first and second spider retainers are disposed in the internal cavity and cooperate to define a spider shaft hole. The spider shaft is received in the spider shaft hole.
SOLAR ROTATING DEVICE WITH ANTI-SHAKING STRUCTURE
Disclosed is a solar rotating device with anti-shaking structure, characterized in that the solar rotating device comprises a first planetary gear set and a second planetary gear set disposed at a next stage of the first planetary gear set, and inclined teeth are formed on at least a peripheral surface of a second PL gear and a second ring gear of the second planetary gear set to have tapered structures.
Differential lock actuator systems and methods for moving flight control surface
A differential actuator system for controlling a flight control surface is provided, which includes a first control lane subsystem, a second control lane subsystem, a differential subsystem and a differential lock subsystem. The differential subsystem includes a first gear set forming a first load path from the first control lane to the flight control surface, and a second gear set forming a second load path from the second control lane to the flight control surface. The differential lock subsystem operably couples to the first gear set and the second gear set and is switchable between a locked state to couple the first and second gear sets in a torque-summing mode for moving the flight control surface and an unlocked state to couple the first and second gear sets in a velocity-summing mode for moving the flight control surface. Control signals issued from a controller operate the differential actuator system.
Battery powered hand-operated troweling machine
A battery-powered troweling machine is driven by an electric motor powered by a pair of twenty-four volt batteries coupled in series to drive a planetary gearbox to rotate a trowel blade assembly engageable with the surface of the poured concrete. The controls are carried by a detachable handle that is connectable with a receiver box that traps the handle between interior and exterior stops and uses over center clamps to maintain the handle in proper position within the receiver box. The controls at the rearward distal end of the handle can be used to vary the speed of rotation of the troweling assembly, to adjust the pitch of the individual trowel blades through an actuator and linkage assembly, to initiate actuation of the electric motor and to provide an emergency stop for the operation of the troweling machine.
