Abstract:
An anti-sway apparatus for use in a tow vehicle-trailer braking system to provide the wheel brakes of the trailer with an actuation signal sufficient to initiate a lesser acceleration in the trailer than in the tow vehicle to develop a uniform acceleration in the tow vehicle-trailer combination.
Abstract:
An electromotive device including a stator provided with electromagnets, an eccentric armature mounted for movement by the electromagnets, and an output member which is concentric with the stator and is driven by the armature movement. A light-actuated electromagnet commutation system is disclosed. The armature of the electromotive device has epicyclic movement relative to both the stator and the output member with the two epicyclic movements cooperating to provide an integrated motor transmission unit.
