28386 results about "Piston rod" patented technology

In a piston engine, a piston rod joins a piston to the crosshead and thus to the connecting rod that drives the crankshaft or (for steam locomotives) the driving wheels. Internal combustion engines, and in particular all current automobile engines, do not generally have piston rods. Instead they use trunk pistons, where the piston and crosshead are combined and so do not need a rod between them. The term piston rod has been used as a synonym for 'connecting rod' in the context of these engines.

Gate valve

A gate valve has a transfer chamber-side valve element and a process chamber-side valve element connected to a single shaft actuated with a single three-position air cylinder to selectively close a process chamber opening and a transfer chamber opening or fully open both the openings to allow an object to pass therethrough. A lever member is secured to the single shaft. A roller supported by the lever member is kept in engagement with a cam groove of a cam member. A cam support member for supporting the cam member is connected to the piston rod of the three-position air cylinder. A spring is interposed between the lever member and the cam support member. When the piston rod is in the first (lower extremity) position, both the transfer chamber-side valve element and the process chamber-side valve element fully open the transfer chamber opening and the process chamber opening, respectively. As the piston rod shifts from the first position to the second position, the roller shifts from engagement with an upper position of the cam groove to engagement with an intermediate position, causing the process chamber-side valve element to close the process chamber opening. As the piston rod shifts from the second position to the third (upper extremity) position, the roller shifts from the engagement with the intermediate position to engagement with a lower position of the cam groove, causing the transfer chamber-side valve element to close the transfer chamber opening.

Within this long tubular cylinder wall is an axially vibratable multi-piston assembly having a plurality of pistons on a long piston rod. One piston is positioned in each of the cylinder chambers. These chambers hive multiple ports opening out through the long cylindrical wall. An elongated circular cylindrical elastomeric bladder forms a water-filled bladder chamber encircling the wall. An actuator piston is vibrated by a remotely controllably hydraulic circuit, thereby vibrating the multi-piston assembly for vibrating water out and in through multiple ports communicating with the water-filled bladder chamber for vibrating the exterior of the bladder shown having diameter "D" of 18 inches and length "L" of 118.5 inches, providing a 6,700 square inch vibration area contacting the ambient water. A multi-piston position sensor enables synchronization of the vibrator with companion sources being towed. An axial passage in the long piston rod feeds low-pressure compressed air into the cylinder chambers forming air cushions behind the pistons vibrating water in these cylinder chambers.
