A gear backlash control mechanism includes a base, a worm gear pivoted to the base, a driving member, a biasing member, a driving worm set having a first shaft, a first worm and a first linkage structure jacketing the first shaft, and a driven worm set having a second shaft, a second worm axially slidable on the second shaft, and a second linkage structure fixed to the second shaft and linked to the first linkage structure. The driving member rotates the worm gear via the first shaft and the first worm and rotates the second worm via the first and second linkage structures and the second shaft. When the worm gear rotates, the first worm abuts against a first tooth surface of each tooth of the worm gear sequentially, and the biasing member pushes the second worm to abut against a second tooth surface of each tooth sequentially.

A boat lift that may have a first worm screw operably connected to the drive shaft defining an axis of rotation aligned with the drive shaft and operably contacting a first worm gear, the first worm screw and the first worm gear defines a first lifting stage. The boat lift may also have a second worm screw operably connected to the first worm gear and operably contacts a second worm gear, the second worm screw and the second worm gear defines a second lifting stage. The boat lift may have a tapered roller bearing assembly that operably engages the second worm screw, the tapered roller bearing assembly has a first tapered roller bearing secured at a first location proximate a first end of the second worm screw and a second tapered roller bearing secured at a second location proximate a second opposing end of the second worm screw.

A circle drive for rotating a blade on a draft frame of a motor grader includes a circle gear mounting the blade, a worm wheel, a torque dividing arrangement, and a single input provided on a first shaft. The torque dividing arrangement includes a set of shafts positioned about the worm wheel, a torque dividing gear set, and a set of worm gears meshed with the worm wheel. The worm wheel is operatively coupled to drive the circle gear. The set of worm gears includes a first worm gear on a first shaft and a second worm gear on a second shaft. The single input is configured to provide a driving torque that drives the set of worm gears such that the set of worm gears divides the driving torque. The driving torque is capable of driving the worm wheel for driving the circle gear and rotating the blade.

The present invention relates to a power transmission device, which includes: a worm shaft; a Janggu (slim waist drum)-shaped worm which is provided on the worm shaft, and has a diameter-reduced part whose outer diameter is increased toward both ends from a center thereof in an axial direction of the worm shaft, wherein the diameter-reduced part has spiral worm teeth formed thereon; a first transmission shaft disposed in parallel to the worm shaft at an interval; and a first transmission gear which is provided on the first transmission shaft, and includes first gear teeth having tooth shapes conjugated with the worm teeth of the Janggu-shaped worm and are continuously formed in a spiral shape on an outer circumferential surface thereof, thus to rotate by threadedly engaging with the worm teeth of the Janggu-shaped worm.

A locking system for a vehicle having a locking device and a gear motor operatively connected to the locking device and configured to cause the locking device to take a stable locking state and a release state, where the gear motor includes a drive motor having an input shaft, a first transmission wheel coupled to a first portion of the input shaft and a second transmission wheel coupled to a second portion of the input shaft.

The present disclosure relates to a transmission mechanism for a base station antenna, and a base station antenna including the transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism includes a motor and at least one connecting rod, wherein a gear mechanism is provided on a first end of the connecting rod, and the motor drives the connecting rod to rotate via the gear mechanism; and wherein a worm gear unit is provided on a second end of the connecting rod opposite to the first end, and the worm gear unit is configured to drive a movable element of a phase shifter when the connecting rod rotates. The transmission mechanism according to the present disclosure can generate greater driving force through the worm gear unit, and has a shorter axial length and a smaller height, and thus is particularly suitable for a more compact and thinner 5G base station antenna.

The invention relates to a two-axis rotator for producing a rotation about two orthogonal spatial axes, and to a handling device comprising a two-axis rotator of this kind. The two-axis rotator for producing a rotation about two mutually orthogonal rotational axes comprises a main body, a first rotor and a second rotor, wherein the first rotor is mounted on or in the main body so as to be able to rotate about a first rotational axis, and the second rotor is mounted on or in the first rotor so as to be able to rotate about a second rotational axis, and wherein the first rotor has a first drive and the second rotor has a second drive, and the first drive and the second drive can be driven independently of one another.

An electromotive furniture drive includes a drive motor including an output shaft, a lift spindle arranged in a common plane with the output shaft, and a gear assembly configured to couple the output shaft of the drive motor to the lift spindle. The gear assembly includes an intermediate shaft which intersects the common plane between the lift spindle and the output shaft.

In this shift device, in a case in which an external force has acted on a lever when an operating mechanism is causing the lever to pivot, a clutch mechanism permits rotation of a first detent plate with respect to a second detent plate, such that pivoting of the lever is permitted. Note that a restraining mechanism urges the lever toward a shift position. This enables to the restraining mechanism to urge the lever separately to the clutch mechanism, thereby enabling the degrees of freedom for setting a biasing load on the lever by the restraining mechanism to be increased.
