摘要:
A method of forming an adhesive joint, a structural subassembly, and a joint construction. The method comprises telescopically assembling male and female tubular members having slightly different diameters to cooperatively define a narrow continuous open-end adhesive chamber between contiguous surfaces of the assembled members. Four (4) or more centering pins equally circumaxially spaced about the members are forcefully entered in the adhesive chambers to equalize spacing between the members throughout the chamber. A distributing device communicates with the adhesive chamber for the introduction of adhesive under pressure to the chamber, thus forming a secure joint.In a fabrication method for a structural subassembly at least three (3) tubular structural members are loosely assembled with three (3) joint members each having at least two cups. Centering pins are forcefully introduced between contiguous surfaces of the members and cups and a distribution device encloses the open end of the adhesive chamber. Adhesive is then introduced between the contiguous surfaces of the members to form secure joints throughout.A joint construction is produced in the practice of the method of the invention.

A wind turbine electrical-generating system with air-directing vanes in the forms of sheaths over structural members crossing the sir discharge opening of the wind turbines. The turbines also have associated shroud assemblies which support the structural members and which cooperate with the vanes to provide superior performance.

A throttle linkage for a vehicle engine is provided comprising a vehicle engine and a throttle actuation arm secured for pivotal movement about an axis substantially fixed relative to the engine, the throttle actuation arm having an axis extending from the pivotal axis. A throttle control arm extending from the engine and capable of actuation to adjust engine power is also provided, the throttle arm having an axis extending from a point of connection to the throttle and substantially intersecting the throttle actuation arm axis, along with a coupling for engaging the throttle control arm and throttle actuation arm at approximately the point of intersection of their respective axes, the coupling allowing sliding of the arms along their respective axes, relative to each other.

A rocker arm for a model vehicle is provided, comprising a first portion and second portion each having an input and an output arm and each having an opening for receiving a pivot member about which the portions rotate. The first and second portions are secured for rotation together about a rotational axis through the respective openings and are spaced apart generally along the rotational axis. The rocker arm further comprises a suspension input coupling member that extends between the input arms of the first and second portions, where the input arms are spaced along the input coupling member, and a suspension output coupling member that extends between the outputs arms of the first and second portions, where the output arms are spaced along the output coupling member.
