    摘要: An autonomous floor cleaner can include a housing, a drive system for autonomously moving the housing over the surface to be cleaned, and a controller for controlling the operation of the autonomous floor cleaner. The drive system can include at least one drive wheel for driving the housing across a surface to be cleaned. The drive wheel can be selectively moved from an engaged or in-use position to a disengaged or maintenance position. In the disengaged or maintenance position, the wheel is disengaged from the autonomously moveable housing such that it can be pivoted, extended, removed, or otherwise moved farther away from the autonomously moveable housing.

    摘要: An “L-shaped” bushing assembly having a retainer pin sleeve and axle sleeve. An “L-shaped” retainer pin is fitted to the retainer pin sleeve and provides a handle piece that projects through the walls of the bushing assembly and wheel that is maneuverable to retract and release the retainer pin and wheel from a grooved axle. The L-shaped retainer pin and bias spring are alternatively mounted in single and multi-channel slots to facilitate retainer pin mounting and/or containment of the retainer pin at a storage position. The retainer pin sleeve slots and/or a transverse open slot facilitate cooperation of a wheel removal tool with the retainer pin(s).

    摘要: A hub or wheel assembly includes a retaining element, biasing element, and hand-maneuverable release mechanism. The housing includes an axle bore configured to receive an axle and a pin sleeve including a first end in fluid communication with the axle bore, a second end, and a conduit between the first end and the second end. The retaining element is within the conduit and is configured to operatively engage a groove in an axle. The biasing element is within the conduit and is configured to bias the retaining element towards the axle bore. The hand-maneuverable release mechanism is configured to displace the retaining element away from the axle bore.

    摘要: A wheel to axle securement system (WASS) that facilitates securing a vehicle wheel to an axle, or removal of a vehicle wheel from an axle. The WASS includes a wheel hub with a centered opening, an axle, and a quick release ball lock pin that is dimensioned to be inserted into an axle insert within the axle. The wheel hub is placed onto the axle through the opening such that the axle end is adjacent an outer surface of the hub. The lock pin has at least two balls that extend from or retract into the pin's shaft. A button on the pin actuates an internal assembly. When the button is released, the balls extend outward. Once the hub is on the axle, the pin button is depressed and the pin is inserted into the axle insert. When the button is released the balls are located adjacent and in contact with the end of the axle insert, which functions as a barrier that precludes the pin from being removed from the insert. Once the pin is in place, the hub is secured onto the axle.

    摘要: A drive axle shaft for use in a full floating axle assembly includes a spline formed at an inner end thereof and a flange formed at an outer end thereof. A majority of the shaft body between the spline and the flange is of an increased diameter which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of a reduced inner diameter portion of an axle housing through which the drive axle shaft extends. A pair of tapered portions form the transition between the increased diameter portion and the shaft ends to provide an axle shaft of increased torsional yield strength and torsional fatigue life.

    摘要: A versatile cultivator is provided wherein to a transmission mechanism for transmitting the power of an engine to a cultivating mechanism is operatively connected a power take-off shaft which projects from a lower front portion of a transmission housing accommodating therein the transmission mechanism, and wherein a running wheel unit is removably attached to the lower front portion of the transmission housing, the wheel unit having running wheels rotatably mounted on lateral sides of the front end thereof while being provided with an interlocking mechanism for linking the running wheels to the power take-off shaft. The cultivator can either be used as a rototiller or as a rotary cultivator, simply by mounting or dismounting the running wheel unit.
