A transmission housing (1) which can be coupled to the drive shaft (21) of an electric motor (20) to form a gearbox (22), the transmission housing (1) comprising a housing body (2) defining a cavity (4), and housed at least partially inside the cavity (4)—a rotary drive member (5),—an output shaft (6) and,—a device (7) for transmitting the rotational movement of the rotary drive member (5) to the output shaft (6), characterised in that the rotary drive member (5) is supported inside the cavity (4) of the housing body (2) by one or more guide members (8) and comprises a wall (9) and two coaxial helical teeth (10) created from a single part with the wall (9) and arranged on either side of the wall (9), the helical teeth (10) being configured to generate axial forces in opposite directions.

A power switching structure includes an input shaft, a detection shaft sleeve fit over the input shaft, an assisting power assembly, and an output assembly selectively drivable by the input shaft and the assisting power assembly. The output assembly includes first and transmission sleeves rotatably mounted to the input shaft. The assisting power assembly includes a power member rotatably mounted to the second transmission sleeve. A one-way bearing is arranged between the first and second transmission sleeves and the power member. An output member is mounted on the second transmission sleeve. A micro-motion static frictional force is induced between the first and second transmission sleeves and the input shaft to allow the detection shaft sleeve to directly and accurately measure a torque value of the input shaft. The one-way bearing arranged between the first and second transmission sleeves and the power member allows for selection among sources of power.

Example landing platform systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a landing platform includes a top plate configured to support an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), where the top plate has a plurality of slots therethrough. A rotating plate is located adjacent the top plate and includes multiple centering pins extending therefrom and extending through the plurality of slots in the top plate. A motor is capable of rotating the rotating plate, which causes the multiple centering pins to center the UAV on the top plate.

The invention relates to a workpiece carrier device (1) comprising: a drive gear (3) for receiving workpiece arrangements (4), which is rotatable about a main axis (2), a number of drive bodies (6), which are arranged on the drive gear (3), are respectively rotatable about an axis of rotation (5) and each have a drive pinion (8) and a stationary internal input gear (9) with an inner toothing, which meshes with the drive pinions (8), wherein the axes of rotation (5) extend parallel to the main axis (2) and are arranged in an annular region of the drive gear (3) that runs concentrically in relation to the main axis (2), and so, when there is rotation of the drive gear (3) relative to the internal input gear (9), the drive bodies (6) rotate about their respective axes of rotation (5), wherein the internal input gear (9) and the drive bodies (6) with their drive pinions (8) are formed and arranged in relation to one another and a working clearance (S) is provided between the internal input gear (9) and the drive pinions (8) such that a driving effect is transferred to all of the drive pinions (8) equally during operation. The invention also relates to a coating arrangement 100 comprising such a workpiece carrier device (1).
