摘要： The invention is an assembly of a plurality of relatively movable jointed mbers such as robotic arm segments and a mechanical muscle connected between two of the segments. The muscle has a longitudinally inflexible, radially expandable sleeve containing a pressurizable bladder of elastic material. The bladder enlarges diametrically when pressurized and bulges the wall of the sleeve outward. The sleeve thereupon contracts axially to compensate for taken up by the sleeve's outward bulge. A terminus at either end of the sleeve connects the sleeve to different segments of a jointed arm, so that the sleeve's axial contraction effects movement of one segment relative to the other.

摘要： An improved battery case for armored vehicles the case having an inlet and outlet, the case halving means that opens the case for airflow when the interior temperature of the case reaches a predetermined value. The case is further insulated so it will minimize the transfer of heat from the surrounding engine components and armor plate.

摘要： Disclosed is an improved cable for connecting electrical components inside combat vehicle, the cable being comprised of a plurality of tubes surrounding individual wire bundles inside the cable. The tubes are resistant to diametrical crushing and have low-friction outer diametrical surfaces to facilitate relative axial sliding between the tubes. When the combat vehicle is being electrical repaired or updated, damaged or obsolete wire bundles can be slid out of the tubes and new wire bundles can thereafter be slid into the vacant tube.
