A gearbox includes a sun gear, a plurality of planetary gears meshed with the sun gear, a rotating frame supporting the planetary gears, and a housing with an internal ring gear meshed with the planetary gears. The planetary gears include a first gear and a second gear coaxially connected to each other along an axial direction and rotating synchronously, the first gear meshed with the sun gear, and the second gear meshed with the internal ring gear of the housing. The rotating frame received in the housing has an upper frame and a lower frame with a central hole, each of the plurality of planetary gears is arranged between the upper frame and the lower frame by a mounting pin, the lower frame is supported by a flange connected to the housing, the sun gear is driven to rotate so as to operate the rotating frame. The gearbox of the present disclosure has low vibration and low noise.

A one-way damping structure (1), comprising a spring (11), a drive element (12) and a friction force generation member, the spring (11) and the drive element (12) being connected such that the spring (11) is driven by means of the drive element (12); the spring (11) comprises a fixing portion (111), a connecting portion (112) and an annular portion (113), the connecting portion (112) being located between the fixing portion (111) and the annular portion (113) and connecting the fixing portion (111) to the annular portion (113), and the fixing portion (111) being fixed; and the annular portion (113) comprises at least half a turn for defining a spring opening which spirally extends in the circumferential direction, and slides relative to the friction force generation member so as to generate friction torque. Also disclosed is an adjusting assembly which comprises the described one-way damping structure (1). A seat height adjuster utilizes one-way damping properties in which the spring (11) of the one-way damping structure (1) generates different torques in different rotation directions; moreover, in combination with a traditional output structure (2) and an installation structure (3), a driver (4) continues to stably defy a fixed load so as to work when the seat is adjusted downwards under the load, and the lifting ability is unaffected when the seat is adjusted upwards.

A drive gear assembly rotatably drives a driven gear of an engine component. The drive gear assembly comprises a drive shaft extending longitudinally along an axis. A main drive gear is operatively coupled to the drive shaft and a scissor gear is aligned coaxially with the main drive gear. A scissor spring is disposed and operatively coupled between the main drive gear and the scissor gear and biased therebetween wherein the main drive gear and the scissor gear rotate about the axis relative to each other. An isolation mechanism is operatively coupled between the main drive gear and the drive shaft for absorbing impulse loads generated by the driven gear when engaged with the main drive gear.

A bull gear is provided for a reciprocating pump. The bull gear includes a hub extending around an axis of rotation of the bull gear. The bull gear includes a rim having a plurality of helical gear teeth extending along a circumference of the rim. The rim extends a width along the axis of rotation from a first side portion to a second side portion that is opposite the first side portion. The bull gear includes a web connecting the hub to the rim. The web extends a radial length from the first side portion of the rim to the hub.

A driving device and a vehicle window lifter are disclosed. The driving device includes a motor and a gearbox. The motor includes a stator and a rotor. The gearbox includes a housing and a gear. The motor is mounted in the housing and includes a rotary shaft driving the gear. The housing supports the motor through a soft support structure. Two bearings are mounted in the housing at the same side of the stator for supporting and determining an orientation of the rotary shaft. Over-constraint to the rotary shaft is eliminated by reducing the number of the rigid support points between the rotary shaft and housing. The soft connection between the motor and housing can avoid or reduce motor vibrations transferred to the gearbox.
