  • SELF-PROPELLED DRIVE AND CUTTER USING SAME
    Publication number: 20230012889
    Abstract: A self-propelled cutter has a gear assembly to provide both downward and forward force on a material to be cut. A gear assembly includes a drive input gear that engages with a transfer gear and propulsion gear engaged with the transfer gear by a lever arm. The drive gear and transfer gear are coupled and fixed to the cutter body but the propulsion gear rotates about the transfer gear via the lever arm. This gear assembly enables the propulsion gear to move as required to provide both downward and forward force on a material to be cut, such as a cast. A self-propelled cutter may have a drive input that is coupled with a drive input device, such as a crank or an electric motor. A cutter may have a first gear assembly on a first side of the cutter body and a second gear assembly on a second side.

  • Tire inflation system and method of control
    Patent number: 9815340
    Abstract: A system and method of controlling pressure of a tire. The method may include executing a low supply pressure operating mode when an available supply pressure of pressurized gas is less than a target tire pressure. The tire may be inflated with pressurized gas provided at the available supply pressure when an estimated tire pressure is not within a threshold amount of the available supply pressure.
