Because the pressure angle (=12) of teeth (47) of a worm wheel (46) is larger than the pressure angle (=11) of teeth (45) of a worm (44), tips of the teeth (47) of the worm wheel (46) can be more tapered as compared with a case in which the pressure angle of the teeth of the worm and the pressure angle of the teeth of the worm wheel are the same angle (the conventional case). Thereby, it is possible to ensure non-contact of teeth, which had been variable in terms of contact and non-contact in the case of the conventional form, even if there has been non-uniformity in the teeth (47) of the worm wheel (46).

Gear unit for motor vehicle

A gear unit for a motor vehicle including a rotatable worm gear shaft rotating about a rotation axis and cooperating with a worm gear wheel in an engagement region spaced from the rotation axis. A pivotable rotary bearing mounts the worm gear shaft on a housing on one side of the engagement region and a loose rotary bearing, pretensioned in the direction of the spacing axis, mounts the other side in the housing. A support device supports the pivotable rotary bearing on the housing in the direction of the rotation axis. To optimize engagement between a worm gear shaft and a worm gear wheel, the pivotable rotary bearing pivots relative to the housing about a pivot axis perpendicular to the rotation axis and to the spacing axis. A support point of the support device is offset relative to the rotation axis along the spacing axis towards the engagement region.

APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING LANDING GEAR

A landing gear system and method of actuating the landing gear system, the system including a first leg assembly, a second leg assembly, a cross-shaft arranged between the two leg assemblies, and a landing gear actuator. The landing gear actuator includes a motor and a coupling shaft which is arranged to couple and decouple the landing gear actuator from the cross-shaft.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TIGHTENING A THREADED FASTENER CONNECTION IN CONCEALED WALLS AND/OR FLOORS
20200325978 · 2020-10-15 ·

A threaded fastener actuator that includes a worm-gear used to transfer rotational power to an impeller gear. The impeller gear includes a polygonal channel for receiving an actuator feature included in a threaded fastener. As the worm-gear is rotated, the impeller gear rotates about a vertical movement axis, which causes the threaded fastener contained in polygonal channel to also rotate and engage with a corresponding threaded coupler.

GEARBOX ASSEMBLY AND A HEADREST ACTUATOR COMPRISING THE SAME
20200318717 · 2020-10-08 ·

The present invention relates to a gearbox assembly comprising a housing, a cover, a screw rod that is inserted through said housing along a first direction, a worm wheel integrally formed on said screw rod, and a worm arranged in the housing along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, said worm being in meshing transmission with the worm wheel, wherein said worm is driven into rotation by a driving shaft, so that the worm drives said worm wheel and said screw rod into rotation through a kinetic pair; said screw rod moves a lifting mechanism attached to the screw rod in a vertical direction through screw transmission; and a stop pin is arranged on said housing, said stop pin being positioned in the direction of extension of a free end of the driving shaft of the worm against the free end. In addition, the present invention further relates to a headrest actuator comprising said gearbox assembly.

Electric retractable view device for vehicle

This invention intends to prevent generation of abnormal sound. A motor shaft is inserted in a center hole of a worm and fitted in the center hole in a direction around an axis of the worm. A distal end of the worm is received in a bearing recess. A worm wheel engages with the worm. A radial gap and rotational play are formed between the motor shaft and the center hole of the worm. A radial gap is formed between the distal end of the worm and the bearing recess. The gap between the distal end of the worm and the bearing recess is formed so as to have a size that prevents an outer circumferential surface of the distal end of the worm and an inner circumferential surface of the bearing recess from coming into contact with each other when the worm is rotating.

Vehicle Auxiliary Steering Device Comprising Double Acting Clutch
20200307678 · 2020-10-01 ·

The present invention relates to a vehicle auxiliary steering device comprising a double acting clutch, the device replacing a conventional motor driven power steering (MDPS) system and, more specifically, to a vehicle auxiliary steering device comprising a double acting clutch, the device transmitting power, which is generated from a power generation device rotating in one direction, through the double acting clutch to a handle shaft coupled to a steering wheel and a wheel shaft, so as to assist the direction changing ability of a vehicle, thereby having excellent safety and excellent steerability, which is transmitted to a driver, and operability (handling) of the steering wheel.
