Dual-shaft driving module
A dual-shaft driving module includes two shafts and a synchronizing block sandwiched between the two shafts. The two shafts are substantially parallel to each other and are substantially in a mirror symmetrical arrangement. Each shaft has two spiral grooves recessed on an outer surface thereof, and each spiral groove has a spiral angle within a range of 40 degrees to 60 degrees. The synchronizing block includes two concave surfaces arranged on two opposite sides thereof and four driving portions respectively protruding from the two concave surfaces. The two concave surfaces respectively face the two shafts, and each concave surface accommodates a part of the corresponding shaft. The four driving portions are respectively inserted into the four spiral grooves. When one of the two shafts is spun to transmit a force to the synchronizing block, the synchronizing block rotates the other shaft at the same time by the force.

Position transmitter assemblies for use with actuators
Position transmitter assemblies for use with actuators are disclosed. A position transmitter assembly for use with an actuator stem of an actuator includes a mounting bracket arranged for attachment to the actuator. The position transmitter assembly includes a position transmitter operatively coupled to the mounting bracket, the position transmitter including a position sensor or a feedback array. The position transmitter assembly includes an arm. The arm includes a first portion and a second portion. The other of the feedback array or the position sensor is mounted to the first portion. The position sensor is responsive to the feedback array to enable the position transmitter to determine a position of the actuator. The position transmitter assembly includes a cam assembly arranged between the actuator stem and the arm. The cam assembly is to cause the arm and the feedback array to linearly move when the actuator stem is rotating.
Mechanism for transforming reciprocal to rotational motion or vice versa, and mechanism applications
A mechanism for transforming rotating into reciprocating motion, or vice versa, comprising first and second annular components (1, 3) located coaxially along a longitudinal axis (ΔA). The first and second annular components are both able to rotate around and reciprocate along the longitudinal axis. A side (A) of the first annular component (1) is in continuous contact, in at least one point, with a neighboring side (Γα) of the second annular component (3) so that the second annular component (3) is able to rotate relative to and in continuous contact with at least one point with the adjacent side (A). The contacting sides are undulated surfaces (A, Γα) such that if the first and second annular components are forced into rotational motion, they remain in continuous contact so that every point of the undulated surfaces will trace, relative to the other, an undulated trajectory and also execute reciprocating motion.
Rotary shaft assembly
The present invention provides a rotary shaft assembly applied to a novel clutch system that ensures a 100% torque transmission rate between an engine and a transmission in a vehicle system and can be commonly applied to conventional manual transmission vehicles and automatic vehicles. The rotary shaft assembly converts linear motion of one member to rotary motion of another member, using a combination of a protrusion and an inclined guide slot.

Axial Pump Assemblies
Embodiments of the invention provide a pump assembly for a hydraulic tool. The pump assembly can include a reciprocating element that is configured to move between a retracted position and an extended position, a cam surface in the reciprocating element that can engage cam followers, a rotating element that can receive rotational input, and a base that can at least partially surrounds the rotating element. Movement of the cam followers along the cam surface can move the reciprocating element from the retracted position to the extended position.
Clutch device
A housing includes an accommodation space for a prime mover and a speed reducer. A rotational translation unit includes a rotation portion that rotates relative to the housing upon receiving torque outputted from the speed reducer, and a translation portion that moves relative to the housing in an axial direction according to rotation of the rotation portion. The accommodation space is between the rotation portion and the housing. A clutch in a clutch space allows or interrupts transmission of torque between a first transmission portion and a second transmission portion. The rotation portion is between the clutch space and the accommodation space. A sealing member has an annular shape in contact with the rotation portion, and maintains an air-tight or liquid-tight state between the accommodation space and the clutch space.

Auto-reversing driveshaft system and method
An auto-reversing driveshaft system/method configured to traverse in alternating longitudinal directions along a common driveshaft axis is disclosed. The system utilizes right-hand-thread (RHT) and left-hand-thread (LHT) channels along a target driveshaft (TDS) to engage dual drive pins (DDP) that are mechanically linked to an axial engagement collar (AEC) mechanically coupled to a motion driver platform (MDP). The AEC may be configured as a two-piece symmetric collar (TSC) in which the DDP are individually retained. The RHT and LHT are configured to implement a selected forward traverse rate (FTR) and reverse traverse rate (RTR) respectively for the DDP and AEC along the longitudinal axis of the TDS. The FTR and RTR may vary along the longitudinal axis of the TDS. The system and method are particularly applicable to the implementation of level winders, pumps, and/or situations where variable longitudinal traversal rates along the TDS are desired.
