摘要： An energy storage device particularly suitable for use in hybrid fluid power systems and fluid systems utilizing accumulators. A piston accumulator has a primary face on one end of the piston and a series of secondary faces on the opposite end of the piston. Each face has an associated chamber, and one or more of the chambers of the secondary faces may be selectively connected to a system pressure line. Since the pressure of the system pressure line depends on (and varies with) the number of chambers connected thereto, the potential energy of the chamber of the primary face may be delivered to the system pressure line at a variety of output pressures. Similarly, the chamber of the primary face may be recharged with energy at a variety of input pressures.

摘要： An internal combustion engine utilizing hypocycloid movement has a crankshaft having a small crank pin construction wherein the piston rod end is supported rotatably on an eccentric disc which, in turn, is journalled for rotation on the crankpin. A rigid interconnected subassembly of the eccentric disc, counterweights and a pinion gear is rotatably mounted on the crankpin in a manner to distribute the piston loads to the opposite pin ends, thereby reducing crankpin bending stresses. The main crankshaft support bearings are located directly adjacent the crankpin ends, thereby further reducing crankpin bending stresses. A two-piece crankshaft construction allows the crankshaft to be preassembled for machining, disassembled for mounting the piston subassembly thereon, and reassembled. The modified hypocycloid gearing assembly includes a rotatable internal ring gear transmitting a portion of the torque produced by the piston force to the output shaft via the pinion gear and an idler gear and sun gear assembly. The remaining portion of the torque produced by the piston force is transmitted directly through the crankshaft. An adjustable idler gear mounting allows the modified gear assembly to be adjusted to compensate for gear tooth backlash.

摘要翻译： 利用次摆线运动的内燃机具有具有小曲柄销结构的曲轴，其中活塞杆端可旋转地支撑在偏心盘上，该偏心圆盘又被转动支承在曲轴销上。 偏心盘，配重和小齿轮的刚性互连子组件以将活塞负载分配到相对的销端的方式可旋转地安装在曲柄销上，从而减小曲柄销弯曲应力。 主曲轴支撑轴承直接位于曲柄销端部附近，从而进一步减小曲柄销弯曲应力。 两件式曲轴结构允许将曲轴预组装用于机械加工，拆卸以将活塞组件安装在其上并重新组装。 改进的下摆线圈齿轮组件包括可旋转的内齿圈，其将由活塞力产生的扭矩的一部分经由小齿轮传递到输出轴，以及惰轮和太阳齿轮组件。 由活塞力产生的扭矩的剩余部分直接通过曲轴传递。 可调节的空转齿轮安装允许修改的齿轮组件被调节以补偿齿轮齿隙。

摘要： An interventional device includes a base having an upper surface, a cup-shaped frame, a probe positioner, and a radio frequency coil. The cup-shaped frame is mounted to the base and configured to receive a body part. The probe positioner is mounted to at least one of the base and the cup-shaped frame, and is capable of rotating about a longitudinal axis which is perpendicular to the upper surface of the base. The radio frequency coil is mounted to the cup-shaped frame and is configured to rotate about the longitudinal axis.

摘要： A positioner for centering or otherwise situating medical devices such as biopsy needles with respect to a human body includes a clamp for receiving a portion of the human body (e.g., a breast), a carriage which moves along a carriage path next to the clamp, and a positioning arm pivotally mounted to the carriage and having a mount for a medical device thereon. The carriage may therefore carry the positioning arm along the carriage path to a desired location adjacent to the clamp, at which point the positioning arm may be pivoted to situate a medical device within the device mount at a desired location adjacent the portion of the body within the clamp. The components of the positioner are preferably made of materials that do not interfere with medical imaging instrumentation (e.g., MRI scanners), though the positioner may include markers at desired locations (e.g., on the positioning arm adjacent the device mount) which are visible by the imaging instrumentation so that the location of the medical device may be ascertained during imaging.

摘要： A multiaxial testing apparatus is shown and described wherein items to be tested are affixed to opposing mounts, and wherein at least one of these mounts defines a constant link of a mobile truss. By varying the lengths of other links within the mobile truss, the pose of the constant link mount is changed, thereby altering the pose and/or loading on the test item affixed between the mounts. In preferred embodiments, the mobile truss includes six variable-length links situated between two constant links, at least one of which is a mount, so that a test item affixed between the mounts may be moved and/or loaded in six degrees of freedom.
