NON-SCRUBBING VERTICAL DRIVE UNIT FOR A TRACKLESS OR FREE ROAMING VEHICLE WITH ZERO TURN RADIUS
20190193784 · 2019-06-27 ·

A driven wheel assembly to provide a zero turn radius without wheel scrubbing. The assembly includes a vertical axis motor driving a vertical drive shaft to drive first and second spaced-apart wheels that are oriented horizontally or perpendicular to the vertical drive shaft for lateral motion of the vehicle. This is combined with an off-axis vertical motor and gear, which rotates or steers, the driven wheel assembly. Instead of a right angle gear drive as found in a conventional drive unit, the driven wheel assembly employs a center differential coupled to the output end of the vertical drive shaft and a hub of each of the first and second wheels and that is positioned in the space between the two wheels. The center differential drives the first and second wheels, and each of the first and second wheels can turn at a different rotational velocity or even in opposite directions.

Cutting device for flexible material

The cutting device includes a blade (1), in which either the blade (1) can move relative to a sheet of flexible material (4) or the sheet of flexible material (4) can move relative to said blade (1), and the blade (1) is associated with a plurality of independent flexible bristles (2), which press and stabilize the flexible material vertically and/or horizontally against a base (5) where the flexible material to be cut is supported. The device can be used to apply constant and well-distributed pressure on the flexible material in the cutting zone, preventing the material from wrinkling and securing the same in an optimal manner relative to the blade, thereby facilitating the cutting.
