A gear motor assembly includes a casing having a through hole, a motor fixed to the casing, an output shaft, a gear fixed to the output shaft and driven by the motor, and a substantially tubular bearing fixed in the through hole of the casing. The gear has a central hub which has an axial end surface, and a shaft portion extending from a central portion of the axial end surface of the central hub. The shaft portion is sleeved in the bearing. A slot is formed in the outer surface of the shaft portion and is filled with lubricant. The slot extends from a free end of the shaft portion to a joint between the outer surface of the shaft portion and the axial end surface of the central hub.

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.

A worm gear has a worm wheel, a drive shaft, and a flexible shaft. The worm wheel meshes with a worm shaft, which is driven by the drive shaft. The flexible shaft can be arranged in the drive shaft with a radial gap between at least a portion of the flexible shaft and the drive shaft. The flexible shaft can be coupled to the drive shaft such that a first spring constant is provided for displacement of the flexible shaft in a radial direction within a first range and a second spring constant is provided for displacement of the flexible shaft in the radial direction within a second range.

A drive device serves for adjusting an operating element for a valve, a throttle, a blow-out preventor or the like, in particular in the field of gas and oil production, the operating element being actively connected to at least one driving motor via a drive train, and at least one transmission changing unit being arranged in the drive train for converting a revolution of the driving motor into a revolution of the operating element and/or a revolution/linear motion converter being arranged for converting the revolution of the driving motor into a linear motion of the operating element. In order to also have a very compact design in case of a high possible performance and to simultaneously permit a good thermal distribution within the drive device, so that separate cooling devices for carrying off the generated lost heat are superfluous, the drive train comprises at least one essentially disk- or wheel-shaped revolution introducing device which is actively connected with at least two drive shafts driven by separate driving motors.

A pressure angle of the worm is set to be greater than a pressure angle of the worm wheel so that a maximum number of meshing teeth becomes smaller than or equal to n (where n is a natural number) with respect to the speed reduction mechanism in which a number of meshing teeth is always n+1 or changed between n+1 and n by rotation under a condition in which the pressure angles of the worm and the worm wheel are the same with respect to each other.

Modular pumps comprising universal gearboxes and crank units and associated methods.

A driving device for driving in rotation a toothed wheel, in particular a turntable, has a worm intended to mesh with the toothed wheel, a motor to drive the worm in rotation, a flexible sleeve that partially surrounds the worm in such a way as to form an assembly described as a worm/sleeve assembly, and a pre-stressing unit. The motor is arranged in a structure that is fitted pivotably relative to the worm/sleeve assembly, and the driving device also has a force transfer unit connecting the motor to the sleeve at a second extremity of the worm.

A gear unit for an actuating drive, in particular a window lifter drive, of a motor vehicle is provided that includes a gear housing and a pivot bolt rotatably fixedly connected thereto for rotatably supporting a gear wheel, in particular of a worm gear, the pivot bolt has a second pivot section, which is adjacent to a first pivot section having a first outer diameter, and which has a free end section on the front, the outer diameter of the second pivot section being smaller than the outer diameter of the first pivot section at least over one part of it pivot section length.

A worm gear includes a worm formed with a through hole through which a shaft transmitting the rotation of a motor is inserted, and a worm wheel configured to mesh with the worm and transmit the rotation to an output shaft. Given that a normal pitch is denoted by E and a width of a recess in the direction of a worm axis by H, the worm is configured such that H/E0.6 (1) is met.
