STEERING DEVICE
A steering device includes: a steering shaft structured to receive rotational force; a rack bar in engagement with the steering shaft; and a rack housing that is made of a metal and contains the rack bar such that the rack bar is movable. The rack housing includes a tubular section extending in a movable direction of the rack bar, and includes a first inclination section disposed in an axial end of the tubular section and inclined to go away from the rack bar outwardly in a radial direction with respect to the rack bar. The tubular section is structured to contact with the rack bar in response to warping of the rack bar due to input from outside. The first inclination section is structured to contact with the rack bar later than the tubular section in response to warping of the rack bar due to input from outside.
Actuator for the actuation of at least one movable member, in particular for changing gear ratios in a motor vehicle transmission
An actuator for the actuation of at least one movable member of a motor vehicle transmission. The actuator includes a housing, at least one electric motor having a stator and a rotor mounted on a rotor shaft extending along an axis X1, a motor pinion fixed to the opposite end of the shaft from the rotor, a circuit board for supplying power to the stator and controlling the electric motor, and a reduction mechanism driven by the motor pinion. The housing defines a first volume in which the electric motor and the circuit board are received. The circuit board is located axially along the axis X1 between the electric motor and the motor pinion. The actuator further includes a cover defining a second volume in which the reduction mechanism is received, the housing and the cover each have guides for guiding the reduction mechanism.
LONG-BOLT POWER TAKEOFF HOUSING
The present invention relates to a power takeoff (PTO) device. More specifically, the present invention relates to a PTO with a novel bolted joint assembly securing the housing of the PTO to a transmission housing, whereby the bolted joint assembly is easier to assemble correctly and more robust than conventional bolted joint assemblies used with conventional PTO housings. The preferred embodiment of the invention comprises elongated fasteners affixing or securing the PTO housing to the transmission housing. Such elongated fasteners provide easier access to the fastener head with standard tools, while providing significantly greater fastener stretch that reduces or prevents vibration loosening of the PTO housing.
Electric actuator including a holder that holds a conductive member and an elastic member that is interposed and held between the holder and a case
An electric actuator includes a case, an electric motor 5 built in the case, and a motion conversion mechanism 4 configured to convert a rotary motion of the electric motor 5 into a linear motion. The electric motor 5 is fixed to the case (gear case 10) at a first end in an axial direction of the electric motor 5, and the electric actuator is provided with a first elastic member 50 between an outer peripheral surface of the electric motor 5 and an inner peripheral surface of the case (motor case 60) at a second end of the electric motor opposite to the first end fixed to the case (gear case 10).
Power-assist assembly
A power-assist assembly comprising a housing including a drive axle portion extending between a pair of extension sleeve connection ends spaced along a first axis and an input gear portion extending along a second axis transverse to the first axis. A gear assist housing is connected to the input gear portion. A boot assembly connected to at least one of the extension sleeve connection ends. The boot assembly includes an extension sleeve connected to the extension sleeve connection end, a boot sleeve connected to the extension sleeve and spaced from the extension sleeve connection end of the housing by at least a portion of a length of the extension sleeve, and a boot retaining ring connected to the boot sleeve opposite the extension tube.
Drive device for a window lifter having a gear cover
A drive device for use in an adjusting apparatus configured to adjust a vehicle part, including a drive housing provided with a housing pot, a drive gear disposed in the housing pot and rotatable about an axis of rotation, an output element operatively connected to the drive gear, and a gear cover, connected to the housing pot and annularly extending about the axis of rotation, and including a cover body provided with a first edge portion connected to the housing pot and a second edge portion protruding radially inwards relative to the first edge portion. A height measured axially between the first edge portion and the second edge portion varies with respect to a circumferential direction about the axis of rotation.
ROTARY ACTUATOR
A rotary actuator includes a housing having a first end and a second end spaced from the first end along an axis. The housing defines a cavity extending circumferentially about the axis. An output shaft is arranged coaxially with the axis. The output shaft extends outwardly from the cavity through the first end. A drive system is disposed in the cavity and axially spaced from the first end. A gearbox is disposed in the cavity between the output shaft and the drive system. The gearbox is coupled to the drive system and the output shaft. A rotational controller is disposed in the cavity between the drive system and the second end. The rotational controller is configured to actuate the drive system to adjust an angular position of the output shaft.
Compact gear motor
The present disclosure relates to a mechatronic actuator consisting of a housing incorporating a shell and a three-phase electric motor formed by a stator excited by electrical coils and by a magnetized rotor, driving an output shaft by means of a gear train, the axis of the rotor, the axis of the output shaft and the axes of the intermediate toothed wheels being parallel, the stator having a radial triangular star shape, the three wound poles forming the three branches of the star, the axes of symmetry of two consecutive wound poles forming a mechanical angle of 120°, the housing also incorporating an electronic circuit, including a capacitor for filtering the electrical signal, the shell having a longitudinal axis, characterized in that the stator is positioned in the hosing in such a way that the axis of symmetry of one of the three wound poles forms an angle of between 70 and 110° with the longitudinal axis.
