20090108512 | Pilot for a series damper - A damper for a torque converter, including: a cover plate for a damper; a turbine hub with a surface; and a pilot element rotationally connected to the cover plate and having a surface slidingly engaged with the surface for the turbine hub. The respective surfaces for the turbine hub and the pilot element are at least partially radially aligned and the pilot element is arranged to center the damper with respect to a longitudinal axis for the torque converter. In some aspects, the pilot element includes at least one axial protrusion engaged with the cover plate. In some aspects, the pilot element is formed of stamped metal. In some aspects, the pilot element is axially stabilized with respect to the turbine hub and the cover plate. In some aspects, the pilot element includes at least one radial protrusion slidingly engaged with a radial surface for the turbine hub. | 04-30-2009 |
267205000 | Including cam or wedge friction element or actuator therefor | 3 |
20090045561 | PRESSURIZED FLUID OPERATED SOLID FRICTION SHOCK ABSORBER - Solid friction shock absorber operated by a pressurized fluid which enables the quick dissipation, through solid friction, of the elastic energy absorbed by vehicles' suspensions. The pressurized bag presses the brake pads with brake linings against the inner wall of the body, creating a solid friction which dissipates the elastic energy absorbed. The pressurized fluid bag and the brake linings are installed on the shaft by presses. The pressurized fluid bag is fed by a feeder tube, a pressurized disk, or by a compressor. | 02-19-2009 |
20100052232 | FRICTION DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING FORCE, AND A FRICTION DAMPER COMPRISING SUCH A DEVICE - Friction device includes at least two members, one of which is mobile, or potentially mobile, in terms of relative displacement with respect to the other under the action of an external stimulus. The relative displacement is liable to cause the relative displacement of two friction surfaces subjected to pressing forces, so as to convert the external stimulus into a friction force and to thus control the displacement of the mobile or potentially mobile member. The pressing forces are produced by pre-stressing mechanisms and the members are able to act on the effects of the pre-stressing mechanisms so as to use the resultant effect of the relative displacement of the mobile or potentially mobile member to reduce the pressing forces. | 03-04-2010 |

20130056919 | DAMPING DEVICE - A damping device, including: a wedge assembly having a wedge including a vertical surface and an inclined surface; a primary friction board disposed on the vertical surface; and a secondary friction board disposed on the inclined surface; and a damping spring assembly disposed underneath the wedge assembly. The wedge assembly has the following structure parameters: α=16-30°, and μ03-07-2013 | |
267214000 | Friction surface formed on or biased by additional spring | 1 |
267215000 | Relatively rotating friction surfaces (e.g., drum type) | 1 |
20090121401 | Vibration damping assembly for a pulley that drives an auxiliary unit of a motor vehicle - Disclosed is an assembly for damping vibrations on a wheel that is used for driving a secondary unit of a vehicle. Said assembly comprises a damping device on the driving wheel that is mounted on a hub which is connected to a drive shaft of the secondary unit. A torsional vibration damper that is combined with a friction clutch is provided as a damping device. The friction clutch is fitted with at least one friction surface facing the hub and at least one second friction surface facing the friction ring in order to non-positively and/or positively couple the driving wheel to the hub via the damper cage of the torsional vibration damper such that torque is transmitted in a vibration damping manner from the driving wheel to the hub via the damper cage. The second friction surface is located between a plate spring and a support disk. The plate spring is connected to the damper cage while the support disk is connected to the hub. Also disclosed is an assembly encompassing several combined torsional vibration dampers. In addition, an assembly with fixed stops can be provided for transmitting high starting torques. Finally, an additional friction damping device is supplied on an assembly. | 05-14-2009 |
267216000 | Coil spring for biasing vehicle parts and friction surfaces | 1 |
20090072459 | Shock absorber for a bicycle - A shock absorber for a bicycle is mounted between a front stem and a front fork of the bicycle, provides a damping effect and has a leading assembly and a sliding assembly. The leading assembly has a leading rod. The leading rod is mounted slidably in the tubular front stem, is attached securely to and protrudes up from the front fork and has a keyed segment. The sliding assembly is mounted securely on the front stem, is mounted slidably around the leading rod and has a bearing. The bearing is mounted rotatably in the front stem, corresponds to, engages and is mounted slidably around the keyed segment of the leading rod. Consequently, having the keyed segment and the bearing corresponding to and engaging each other allows the shock absorber to reduce vibration and react promptly while the bicycle is ridden. | 03-19-2009 |
