Vehicle steering column assembly and method of assembling
A vehicle steering column assembly includes a first shaft having a first shaft cavity extending from an end of the first shaft. Also included is a second shaft operatively coupled to the first shaft, the second shaft having a second shaft cavity disposed therein. Further included is a torsion bar disposed within the first shaft cavity and the second shaft cavity. Yet further included is a stop tooth extending from the first shaft. Also included is a worm gear defining a slot with a slot wall, a first portion of the slot wall configured to engage a first side of the stop tooth to define a first radial boundary of the worm gear, a second portion of the slot wall configured to engage a second side of the stop tooth to define a second radial boundary of the worm gear.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING TORQUE IN AN ACTUATOR
A rotary actuator assembly includes a common shaft, a drive, and a gear assembly. The common shaft has a body portion and a neck portion, and defines a first axis of the actuator assembly. The drive includes a pinion, having an aperture formed therethrough, wherein the neck portion of the common shaft is slidably received in the aperture. The gear assembly includes an intermediate gear and a drive gear. The drive gear is rotationally fixed to the body portion of the common shaft. The intermediate gear rotates about a second axis parallel to the first axis, and is configured to transfer rotational movement from the pinion to the drive gear, wherein a major gear of the intermediate gear engages the pinion and a minor gear of the intermediate gear engages the drive gear, wherein.

LEFT-RIGHT WHEEL DRIVE DEVICE
In a left-right wheel drive device (10) that accommodates, in a casing (4), two electric motors (1, 2) spaced apart from each other and a planetary gear mechanism (3) arranged so as to be offset on a first side in an axial direction, a pair of motor shafts (11), a pair of counter shafts (12), and two output shafts (13, 14) are arranged in parallel. The first output shaft (13) is arranged on the first side from the planetary gear mechanism (3) and is fixed with a carrier (3C) at an end portion of a second side thereof. The second output shaft (14) is longer than the first output shaft (13) and is fixed with the second sun gear (3S2) at an end portion on the first side thereof. The second output shaft (14) is rotatably supported by roller bearings (35, 36) at the end portion on the second side and a position on the second side from a driven gear meshing with the second counter gear.
Transmission for a drive train in an agricultural or heavy load vehicle and a corresponding drive train and corresponding vehicle
A transmission for an agricultural or heavy load vehicle is provided, and includes a central drive shaft, at least one planetary gearset comprising a planet carrier, at least one output drive element, and one brake device. The drive shaft is connected to the output drive element via the planetary gearset. The brake device is located between the planet carrier and the output drive element in the form of a ring gear, such that the output drive element can be coupled to the planet carrier via the brake device.
SHAFT MODULE AND METHOD FOR INSTALLING A SHAFT MODULE
A shaft module at least having a first tooth system and at least two bearing seats is distinguished in that the first tooth system sits on a hub and is connected to the hub by at least one welded joint, and in that the bearing seats are formed on components separate from the tooth system. At least one of the components and the tooth system are secured on each other by a welded joint.
Actuating drive comprising a guiding element
The invention relates to an actuating drive and to a guiding element for use in an actuating drive. The actuating drive according to the invention includes an electric motor, comprising a rotor rotatably supported on a rotor axle and an output gear mechanically coupled to the rotor. The actuating drive further includes a guiding element comprising a guide configured to radially guide the output gear relative to an output axis. The guiding element also includes a first axle receiver configured to receive a distal end of the rotor axle. The guiding element also includes a second axle receiver configured to receive a central portion of the transmission axle.
Transmission and generator with intermediate shaft
An arrangement, including a gearbox, a generator, an intermediate shaft configured as a hollow shaft which is mounted at least partially in a housing of the gearbox, wherein a rotor of the generator is non-rotatably connected to the intermediate shaft and is supported by the intermediate shaft, and an intermediate piece arranged at least partially in the intermediate shaft. An output shaft of the gearbox is non-rotatably and detachably connected to the intermediate piece. The intermediate piece is non-rotatably and detachably connected to the intermediate shaft.
Driving motor system of electric mobility and driving system comprising the same
A driving motor system and a driving system of an electric mobility are provided. The driving motor system may comprise: an inverter configured to receive DC power and convert the DC power into AC power; a motor configured to provide driving force; and a reducer configured to increase the driving force provided by the motor and transmit the driving force to a wheel of the electric mobility, wherein the motor and the reducer are installed inside a motor housing.
