2 results about "Motion resistance" patented technology

Resistance to motion. This is the resistance a vehicle faces while attempting to move from a stall condition or while accelerating. This resistance must be overcome by the powerplant of the engine in order to sustain motion. When the power produced is smaller than the resistance to motion, the vehicle will gradually slow down.

Vehicle equipped with suspension-controlled motion resistance member

The present invention provides a vehicle equipped with a suspension-controlled motion resistance member. [Solution] The vehicle includes a body and a chassis coupled to the base of the body. The vehicle further includes a motion resistance member coupled to the base surface of the chassis, a wheel assembly coupled to the chassis, and a suspension unit coupled to the wheel assembly and the chassis. In operation, the suspension unit is configured to move the chassis in a first direction until at least a portion of the motion resistance member contacts the ground below the base surface of the chassis.

Electronic caliper, configured to generate current for measurement processes

ActiveDE102013224710B4MicrometersSlide gaugesGear wheelControl engineering
Electrically operated caliper (100, 400) configured to generate current for measuring operations, wherein the caliper (400) has: a scale element (102); a slide (130); a signal processing section (150) configured to measure a displacement between the scale element (102) and the slider (130); and a power generating device (405) that is fixed with respect to the slide (130) and which has: a power-generating gear train (432) configured to rotate in response to a force, the force being applied to the gear train (432) via a power-generating handle (410) by a user moving the power-generating handle (410) relative to the gear train (432); and a generator (431) which is coupled to the gear train (432) and configured to rotate in response to a force exerted by the rotating gear train (432) and to supply current to the signal processing part (150), wherein: the power generating device (405) generates electricity while the user moves the power generating handle (410); the power-generating device (405) is configured to contribute a motion resistance force component while the user moves the power-generating handle (410); and the gear train (432) has a force-limiting clutch (432C) which is configured to limit the resistance force component of the movement and the force-limiting clutch (432C) is configured such that the resistance force component of the movement is at most 20 N while the user moves the power-generating handle (410) with a maximum hand acceleration and / or with a maximum hand speed.
