13 results about "Footplate" patented technology

The footplate of a steam locomotive is a large metal plate that rests on top of the frames and is normally covered with wooden floorboards. It is usually the full width of the locomotive and extends from the front of the cab to the rear of cab or coal bunker just above the buffer beam. The boiler, the cab, and other superstructure elements are in turn mounted on the footplate. The footplate does extend beyond the front of the cab on some locomotives, but is then usually referred to as the "running board/plate." The footplate is where the Driver and Fireman stand in the cab to operate the locomotive, giving rise to the expression of working on the footplate for being in the cab of a steam locomotive. The part of the footplate ahead of the cab is referred to by a variety of different names.

Handle driving mechanism for locomotion rehabilitation

A system can comprise a driving link, a first footplate link, a footplate, a pulley system, a second footplate link, and a handle. The driving link can rotate, to thereby cause the first footplate link to translate in a first direction. The translation of the first footplate link footplate in the first direction can cause the footplate and the second footplate link to translate in the first direction when the first footplate link translates in the first direction. The translation of the second footplate link in the first direction can transmit force to the handle via the pulley system, thereby causing the handle to translate in a second direction that is substantially opposite the first direction when the first footplate link the footplate, and the second footplate link are translating in the first direction.

Safety riding stirrup

PCT designated stageWO2026146371A1Classical mechanicsStirrup
The present invention relates to a safety stirrup for equestrian use, featuring a locking system designed to keep the rider's foot stable and securely attached to the footplate during normal use, while ensuring rapid detachment when necessary. The system comprises a folding element articulated on the footplate, actuated by a tension spring fixed at two points and operating around a fulcrum, which allows the element to exert controlled pressure on the foot. This pressure is sufficient to prevent slipping but does not prevent deliberate or accidental detachment. A particular geometric configuration of the system perfects the closure when the line between the spring's attachment points overpasses the fulcrum. In an embodiment, the folding element exerts a force of approximately 10 N. A curved element is also provided on the footplate, designed to improve the lateral stability of the foot during riding.
