摘要:
A hub (2) includes a spindle (14) which projects through a housing (4) and rotates relative to the housing (4) on a bearing (6) that is located between the spindle (14) and the housing (4). The bearing (6) has two sets of raceways (28,40) that are oblique to the axis x, and in addition rolling elements (36) arranged in two rows between the sets of raceways (28,40). The inner raceways (28) that fit around the spindle (14) and have back faces (32), with the back face (32) for one of the races (26) being against a shoulder (18) from which the spindle (14) projects. Initially, the end of the spindle (14) projects straight beyond the back face (32) of the outer race—indeed, so that the races (26) can be installed over the spindle (14). But once the housing (4) and races (26) are in a position around the spindle (14), the projecting end portion of the spindle (14) is deformed radially and axially in a rotary forming operation such that it transforms into a formed end (20) that lies behind back face (32) of the race (26). With the two races (26) between the formed end (20) and the shoulder (18). During the rotary forming operation the hub (26) rotates, and the end of its spindle (14) is forced against a rotating forming tool and the force is monitored. The housing (4) is restrained and the torque transferred from the rotating hub (2) to the housing (4) is monitored.

摘要:
An interactive game apparatus in which players throw projectiles, such as soft balls, against a display panel on which a target image is projected and contact sensitive elements aligned with target areas in the projected image are activated by a hit from the thrown projectile to initiate a change in the projected image uniquely associated with the target area hit and the player who threw the projectile. An embodiment in the context of a tic-tac-toe game is described. A number of embodiments for identifying specific projectiles with a player responsible for throwing the projectile are described.
摘要:
A method for detecting blast induced pressure changes includes exposing a material, a contained solution, a membrane-bound solution, or a photonic crystal material, having a first optical property, to a pressure wave having a blast level. A change in the first optical property to a second optical property of the exposed material, contained solution, membrane-bound solution, or photonic crystal material is determined, and the extent of change corresponds to the blast level.
