49 results about "Torque limiter" patented technology

A torque limiter is an automatic device that protects mechanical equipment, or its work, from damage by mechanical overload. A torque limiter may limit the torque by slipping (as in a friction plate slip-clutch), or uncouple the load entirely (as in a shear pin). The action of a torque limiter is especially useful to limit any damage due to crash stops and jams.

Calibration method and device for the anti-tipping angle of the main boom in lifting equipment

This invention relates to the field of mechanical engineering, specifically to a method and device for calibrating the anti-tilting entry angle of the main boom in lifting equipment. This application employs an automatic calibration process under no-load conditions. First, it collects the main boom's self-weight torque and force-related parameters based on the initial low-position angle. Then, it identifies the actual entry angle by utilizing the abrupt change in torque difference during uniform boom lifting. Finally, it calibrates the torque of auxiliary components based on this angle. Its beneficial effects are derived as follows: Manual calibration is prone to errors in the perceived entry angle and the actual force applied. This application eliminates the subjective errors of manual calibration by determining the entry angle through the abrupt change in torque difference. With accurate actual entry angle, the torque limiter can match the actual force state of the hydraulic cylinder during calculation, avoiding the error of "prematurely calculating / omitting the anti-tilting torque," thus significantly reducing the deviation between the theoretical and actual lifting weight. This solves the problem of false overload alarms affecting operational efficiency and avoids safety hazards caused by deviations in lifting weight calculation.

This utility model relates to a bidirectional torque plate for an impact testing bench, comprising a torque plate body detachably mounted on a torque limiter under test. The torque plate body has lever arms extending radially to both sides, with each lever arm's end forming a torque-acting end mechanically connected to a force sensor. When the torque limiter under test is subjected to an impact load, the torque plate body tends to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. When one lever arm applies pressure to the corresponding force sensor through its torque-acting end, the other lever arm applies tension to the corresponding force sensor through its torque-acting end, thus achieving bidirectional measurement of tensile and compressive forces. This utility model improves detection accuracy by canceling out the self-weight of symmetrical torque couples, effectively achieving precise control of the torque transmission path under impact load, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of torque measurement data.

The invention extends an existing vehicle dynamics control system to stabilise cornering on extremely low friction surfaces with an estimated friction coefficient mu in the range of approx. 0.02 - 0.05. A controller superimposes sharp-edged steering impulses around a dynamic neutral steering position δ0(t) with an asymmetric bias towards the curve direction. The impulses are synchronised with short brake pulses (preferably at the inner-rear wheel) and a drive-torque limiter so that the combined tyre force remains inside the friction ellipse sqrt(Fx2 + Fy2) ≤ mu (estimated) -TV. A state machine (ARMING, ACTIVE, STABILISATION and ABORT) activates automatically when mu (estimated) ≤ 0.05 and vehicle speed v≤ 20 km / h, and deactivates on stability restoration or driver override.
