Abstract: A torque sensing assembly of a differential of an axle assembly is described in the present disclosure. The differential may include a differential housing portion, a drive pinion positioned within the differential housing portion, a ring gear, a carrier, a differential pinion, a first side gear, a second side gear, a first bearing, a first bearing support, and the torque sensing assembly. The first bearing is coupled to the differential housing portion and rotatable with the carrier. The first bearing support is coupled to the differential housing portion and used to support the first bearing. The torque sensing assembly is coupled to the first bearing support and operable to measure a characteristic resulted from a separation force created between the drive pinion and ring gear.

Abstract: A plurality of weapons are provided with electrically operated firing devices and radio transmitting and receiving equipment which permits each weapon to be fired only when the weapon trigger is depressed and a specific command signal is received by the weapon. A master control unit permits an operator to select necessary conditions which are to be satisfied before giving the command, including numbers of groups and weapons to be employed and numbers thereof which are to be in firing position with triggers depressed. Switching and logic arrangements are disclosed to permit the selection, receive signals from the weapons, recognize satisfaction of the conditions, and give the command simultaneously to all ready weapons.
