Abstract: An assembly for moving a component relative to a ceiling of an engine enclosure includes a first-class lever, and a harnessing mechanism. The first-class lever is formed in at least one of the ceiling and a structure disposed above the ceiling. The first-class lever has a first side, and a second side located proximal to an opening defined in the ceiling. The harnessing mechanism includes a flexible link having a first end and a second end. The first end is disposed on the first side and is configured to allow an effort to be applied thereto. The second end is disposed on the second side and is configured to releasably connect with the component. The second end may hoist or lower the component relative to the ceiling in response to the effort and based on a type of effort applied at the first end.

Abstract: A polishing head comprises a casing with abrasive segments attached thereto made to oscillate on radial shafts driven by a ring with vertical eccentric rotary motion. The ring is coupled to a first eccentric and to a crown gear is fixed to the casing while a pinion is coupled with rotational motion to a second eccentric connected to the structure of the machine. A plurality of pins are mounted on eccentric planetary gears coupled with rotational motion to the ring and to the body of the head with a further pair of crown and pinion gears provided in which the first crown gear is rigidly connected to a second pinion and rotates with it on the second eccentric. The first pinion is rigidly connected to the said first eccentric, concentrically with the axis of the head and the second crown gear is rigidly connected to the housing of the polishing head concentrically with the axis of the head.
