Abstract: A rack and pinion steering system including a rack slidably supported within a housing that engages in a pinion gear wherein the housing includes a cylindrical sleeve having an outer seal surface with a slight medial taper at one end thereof. A yoke assembly, which is received by the cylindrical sleeve, operates to guide the rack and maintain engagement of the rack and pinion during operation of the steering system and includes a yoke member engaging the rack. A retainer member holds a yoke plug, used in the yoke assembly, in position and has a compliant annular seal member having an inner sealing surface that has a complementary slight outward extending taper to provide a self-sealing interface with the medial taper of the outer seal surface of the cylindrical sleeve to protect the internal components of the steering system from water and other contaminants.
Abstract translation: 一种齿条和小齿轮转向系统,其包括可滑动地支撑在壳体内的齿条,其啮合小齿轮,其中所述壳体包括圆柱形套筒,所述圆柱形套筒具有在其一端具有轻微内侧锥度的外部密封表面。 由圆柱形套筒容纳的轭组件操作以引导齿条并且在转向系统的操作期间保持齿条与小齿轮的接合,并且包括接合齿条的轭构件。 保持器构件将用于轭组件中的轭塞固定在适当的位置并且具有柔性环形密封构件,该环形密封构件具有内部密封表面,内部密封表面具有互补的微小的向外延伸的锥形,以提供与外部的内侧锥体的自密封界面 密封表面的圆柱套筒,以保护转向系统的内部部件免受水和其他污染物的影响。

Abstract: A pair of rotary dies with lands having coacting cutting edges which cut blanks of material from a web passing between the rotating dies. To provide a clean cut and improved squareness of the cut ends, a side face of the land adjacent the cutting edge has a positive rake. To insure that the cutting edges can be brought into coacting relationship to produce a clean cut, they are located and arranged on the dies so that they can be varied and adjusted axially and in rotary phase relationship to each other. A die stand for positioning, adjusting and driving the rotary dies, and a method for making negative electrode cylinders for producing the rotary dies by hardening, grinding and electric discharge machining blank cylinders of tool steel, are also disclosed.
Abstract translation: 一对具有共同作用的切割边缘的旋转模具,其通过旋转模具之间的幅材切割材料坯料。 为了提供切割端的清洁切割和改进的方形性,邻近切割边缘的边缘的侧面具有正耙。 为了确保切削刃能够形成共同的关系以产生干净的切割,它们被定位并布置在模具上,使得它们可以轴向变化并且以相互旋转的关系相互调节。 还公开了用于定位,调整和驱动旋转模具的模座,以及通过硬化,研磨和放电加工工具钢坯料制造旋转模具的负极气缸的方法。
