Actuator mechanism
The invention relates to an actuator mechanism (1) for adjusting the orientation of a mirror element in an exterior mirror unit of a vehicle. The mechanism comprises an electric motor (9, 10) with a driving shaft (11, 12), a drive train (13, 14), and a movable mirror adjusting element (5, 6) coupled via the drive train to the driving shaft of the electric motor. Also, the actuator mechanism comprises an actuator frame (2) which carries the electric motor, the drive train and the mirror adjusting element. The driving shaft of the electric motor is bearing mounted in the actuator frame.
ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY FOR INTEGRATED DYNAMIC BRAKE APPARATUS
An actuator assembly for an integrated dynamic brake apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a hollow motor having a stator and a rotor spaced apart from an inner circumferential surface of the stator; a block having one side coupled to one side of the motor and in which chamber that accommodates fluid is formed; a gear unit having one side coupled and fixed to the rotor to convert rotational movement of the rotor to linear movement; a piston configured to receive the converted linear movement from the gear unit to linearly reciprocate; and an electronic control unit coupled to the other side of the block and comprising a motor position sensor configured to detect a position of the motor.
ACCELERATOR DEVICE
An accelerator device includes a pedal lever, at least one drive source, a power transmission mechanism, and a locking mechanism. The pedal lever operates in response to a depressing operation. The drive source is configured to exert a reaction force as a force in a returning direction to the pedal lever. The power transmission mechanism transmits a drive force from the drive source to the pedal lever. The locking mechanism is capable of regulating the operation of the pedal lever.
LIFTABLE TABLE LEG AND LIFTABLE TABLE
A liftable table leg includes a bushing, a second fixing piece, a lift assembly, a fixing base and a drive assembly. A first fixing piece is sleeved on a first end of the bushing. The second fixing piece includes a fixing flange and an accommodation groove. The first end is fixed to a bottom end of the accommodation groove through the first fixing piece. A nut of the lift assembly is fixedly disposed at a second end of the bushing. A lead screw of the lift assembly is rotatably disposed in the bushing and threaded into the nut. The second fixing piece is fixedly disposed at the fixing base through the fixing flange. The drive assembly includes a fixing frame. An end of the lead screw is rotatably connected to the fixing frame, and the drive assembly is capable of driving the lead screw to rotate.

Adaptor for surgical instrument for converting rotary input to linear output
An adaptor for a powered surgical instrument includes a casing, a cam drum, a first linear driver, and a second linear driver. The cam drum defines and is translatable along a longitudinal axis of the adaptor between a retracted position and an advanced position. The cam drum is being supported for rotation about the longitudinal axis. The cam drum defines first and second radial cam grooves about an outer surface thereof. The first cam groove defines a first profile and the second cam groove defines a second profile. The first linear driver includes a first cam follower disposed in the first cam groove and the second linear driver includes a second cam follower disposed in the second cam groove. The first and second linear drivers are supported for movement between advanced and retracted positions in response to rotation of the cam drum.
Landing leg assembly for vehicles
A landing leg assembly for a heavy duty commercial vehicle includes a first leg member defining an interior space, a second leg member telescopingly engaging the first leg member and movable between a retracted position and an extended position with respect to the first leg member, a gear assembly at least partially located within the interior space of the first leg member and operably coupled to the second leg member and configured to receive an input from a user to move the first leg member between the retracted and extended positions, the gear assembly including a shaft member and a gear member fixed for rotation with the shaft member, and an integral, single-piece bearing member including a bore that rotatably receives the shaft member, wherein the bearing member comprises a powdered metal and is directly welded to the first leg member.
