The invention relates to a drive unit for fitting or retrofitting a two-wheeled vehicle (1), preferably a bicycle, having an electric motor which is designed as a disc motor (10), comprising a rotor disc (11) having permanent magnets (12) and an annular stator (13) with windings, which generate an electrical alternating field for driving the rotor disc (11), wherein the rotor disc (11) can be fastened non-rotatably to a receptacle (6) on the front or rear wheel of the two-wheeled vehicle (1) and the annular stator (13) can be fastened to a frame part (4, 5) of the two-wheeled vehicle (1). For tool-free dismantling the annular stator (13) can be unfolded in the circumferential direction and can be removed or pulled off from the rotor disc (11).

The present disclosure relates to a field of door/window hardware accessories, in particular to a door/window pulley, a pulley device, and a door/window. The present disclosure provides the bearing and the anti-deformation metal ring that can be in contact with the track, the anti-deformation metal ring use rigidity itself to effectively avoid generating indentation, and the door/window pulley is also difficult to be pressed to cause deformation. Moreover, the inner part of the injection molded body is filled between the bearing and the anti-deformation metal ring, which not only well transfers pressure bore by the anti-deformation metal ring when load-bearing to the bearing, but also restores the anti-deformation metal ring after slight deformation by giving an outward elastic support to the anti-deformation metal ring using elasticity of the injection molded body.

A quick-release automatic tensioning motor base for supporting a motor. The motor is operably coupled to a device to be driven via a drive belt. The motor base includes base brackets and at least one guide rail fixedly coupled between the base brackets. A platform assembly, which supports the motor, is slidably coupled to the guide rail. A spring assembly is selectively coupled between the base brackets and fixedly coupled to the platform assembly. The spring assembly applies a biasing force to the platform assembly to maintain a belt tension along the drive belt. A quick-release assembly selectively engages the spring assembly and base brackets to permit movement of the quick-release assembly between a fastened position and a released position. A spring compression retention assembly is operably coupled to the spring assembly to maintain spring compression on the spring assembly even when the quick-release assembly is in the released position.

A motor mounting assembly and associated motor mounting fixture. The motor mounting fixture includes a fixture body, a motor fastener, and a coupling member. The fixture body has a fixture base and first and second spaced apart legs extending distally from the fixture base, a first aperture through the first leg and a second aperture through the second leg. The motor fastener projects proximally from the fixture base, and is received in the at least one elongate slot. The coupling member extends through at least the first aperture of the first leg and is fixed to at least one of the first and second legs. The coupling member has a through bore that includes screw threads that are threadably engageable with the adjusting rod such that the fixture body moves along the elongate slot of the motor base when the adjusting rod is rotated.

Disclosed is a flow-directing motor mount for a motor mounted within the flow stream of a moving air. A flow-directing motor mount is described. Embodiments of the flow-directing motor mount cause a change in the direction of flow of a air stream constrained by a air intake cone or baffle and flowing through a HVAC device, such as a fan of an air-handler assembly. The change in direction of flow creates an angular momentum in the air stream in the direction of rotation of a fan, increasing the overall operating efficiency of the HVAC device. By increasing the operating efficiency, the air resistance created by the flow-directing motor mount supports coupling a motor to the HVAC device is offset, enabling the HVAC device to operate at a higher efficiency.
