ЛИНЕЙНЫЙ ПРИВОД

Номер: RU2604762C2
Принадлежит: ТАЛЬ (FR)

Изобретение относится к области приводов кинематических систем, используемых, например, для тренажеров полета, а более конкретно к линейным приводам. Линейный привод (2) для перемещения груза (3) содержит стойку (4), связанную с грузом (3) с помощью шарового шарнира, и пластину (6), подвижную в передвижении вдоль оси (5), принадлежащей плоскости основания (9) привода (2). Подвижная пластина (6) механически связана со стойкой (4). Линейный привод также содержит, по меньшей мере, один первый упругий кабель (7, 41), прикрепленный одним из его концов к подвижной пластине (6) и другим его концом - к опоре (9), являясь сцепленным с первым шкивом (20, 50), прикрепленным к опоре (9). Линейный привод может использоваться для перемещения платформы системы моделирования, установленной на шестистоечную конструкцию. 2 н. и 9 з.п. ф-лы, 5 ил.

УСОВЕРШЕНСТВОВАННЫЙ УНИВЕРСАЛЬНЫЙ ПОДВЕС

Номер: RU2442069C2

Универсальный подвес, предпочтительно, предназначен для установки оптического датчика, в частности камеры. Подвес содержит гнездо (6) и расположенный в нем шар (2). На внешней поверхности шара установлен первый массив (5) электромагнитов, а на внутренней поверхности гнезда - второй массив (7) электромагнитов. Поддержание шара внутри гнезда осуществляется за счет наличия взаимного магнитного отталкивания между некоторыми электромагнитами первого и второго массивов в положении, при котором частично сферические поверхности шара и гнезда являются практически концентрическими относительно общего центра для управления ориентацией шара относительно гнезда путем магнитного взаимодействия между другими электромагнитами первого и второго массивов. Повышается надежность подвеса, упрощается его сборка. 6 з.п. ф-лы, 5 ил.

COUPLING OF THE BALL-AND-SOCKET JOINT TYPE

Номер: CA1125529A

P 351 COPLING OF THE BALL-AND-SOCKET JOINT TYPE This invention relates to a coupling of the ball-and-socket joint type between two objects. Connected to the one object, which may be a driver's seat in a working vehicle is a joint socket and a joint ball with a gap between them. Connected to the other object, which may consist of a base for a driver's seat, for example, is a coupling element in the form of a spherical shell disposed in the gap between the joint socket and the joint ball. The latter are pressed towards one another by means of powerful cup springs so that the spherical shall is locked firmly and the two objects are thus located in relation to one another. The grip of the spring force can be cancelled by means of a tightening element connected to the joint ball, as a result of which the coupling becomes movable again so that new positions can be adopted. The coupling can be used in various connections where it is desired to adjust two objects in relation to one another simply ...

The present invention relates to a novel gimbal system. A grooved spherical ball has been designed to rotate with precise control over multiple degrees of freedom. A concave housing surrounds and stabilizes the ball. The ball articulates with and is moved by the actuation of two orthogonally situated toothed gears. Such improved gimbal design may be useful in systems which require precise, stable and rapid motion through multiple degrees of freedom such as the stabilization of cameras mounted on moving devices as well as myriad other diverse applications. 1. The specific groove design on the spherical ball is novel and unique:a. It allows for precise movement through multiple degrees of freedom when driven by the actuation of two orthogonally situated toothed gears.2. The concave housing is an improvement upon prior arta. It allows for stabilization of the gimbal using a tooth in groove mechanism which maximizes precision3. The interaction between ball and gears improves upon prior arta. It forces near-immediate response of the gimbal system to a driving input from the actuators.b. Actuation and stabilization of the ball do not rely on friction or any force which would cause fast-acting and substantial wear on the ballc. The minimal driving of mass necessary to change the position of the gimbal minimizes the work required of the actuators, thereby conserving energy4. The fixed position of the actuators in space improves upon prior arta. It allows gimbal function while minimizing energy expenditure, as the movement caused by one gear does not cause force to be exerted against the second.b. It minimizes potential tangling of wires.
