Patent number: 11338884Abstract: A discoidal brake for a bicycle comprises a pair of discoids, each of which is mounted on a bicycle member laterally of a wheel rim, one on either side of the wheel. The discoid is pivotally mounted in levered relation on each pivot mount below adjacent and biased away from the wheel rim. A brake shoe is affixed to each discoid to allow camming of the brake shoe into the wheel rim facilitating braking. A control cable is affixed to a control member above the wheel with the control member being connected to the center of a yoke cable. The yoke cable is affixed to each discoid with yoke cable passed partway around the annular component on each discoid.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2021Date of Patent: May 24, 2022Inventor: John McIntyre

Patent number: 11104307Abstract: Unlike axle replacement on vehicles, where the weight of the vehicle and air-assisted tools may be used, replacement of axle shafts in confined spaces (e.g. benchtop testing rigs) demand improved methods for controlling axle rotation during loosening and tightening of hub nuts. The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for controlling axle rotation during axle shaft replacement in confined spaces. The apparatus further includes a safety mechanism to prevent accidental team member injury caused by an independently rotating axle. Additionally, the disclosure describes a method of the apparatus for efficient loosening and tightening of hub nuts, reducing team member physical burden and expediting axle shaft replacement.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2017Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: TOYOTA MOTOR ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING NORTH AMERICA, INC.Inventors: Brady Keith Bowling, Joseph Lee Nelon, Douglas John McIntyre, Charles Michael Taylor

Patent number: 10151309Abstract: A peristaltic pump device includes a resilient tube secured in a pump housing with a rotor having rollers squeezing against the resilient tube facilitating the pumping of a liquid or gas. A cylindrical rotor rotates in a bore provided in the pump housing. The rotor has steps in which rollers freely slide and rotate. As the rotor rotates, the rollers also rotate and are slidingly held in the rotor step thereby frictional contact with the compressing resilient tube and consequently the liquid or gas within goes out of the resilient tube. The pump is inexpensive to build, reliable, and by design promotes the long life of the resilient tube as compared to existing roller type peristaltic pumps.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2016Date of Patent: December 11, 2018Inventor: John McIntyre
