  • Patent number: 11970023
    Abstract: A vehicle wheel arrangement includes a wheel with a wheel hub and a carrier element for mounting the wheel on a vehicle part and/or for arrangement of a power-transmitting unit. In a joined state of the vehicle wheel arrangement a joining portion of the wheel hub corresponds with a joining portion of the carrier element. In the joined state of the vehicle wheel arrangement, the wheel hub and the carrier element are connected to one another in form-fitting fashion at least in a circumferential direction of a wheel hub axis. The wheel hub includes, in a region of the joining portion, one or more fiber plies with fibers arranged unidirectionally in the circumferential direction of the wheel hub axis. Furthermore, a method can be used to produce a vehicle wheel arrangement having a wheel hub made of fiber-reinforced composite and a carrier element.

  • Publication number: 20240109392
    Abstract: A pendulum rocker damper with a rotation axis includes an input side with first and second input-side counter tracks, an output side with first and second output-side counter tracks, a stored energy source, and rocker elements disposed at opposite axial ends of the stored energy source. Each of the rocker elements has three axially offset partial tracks forming an input-side roller track and an output-side roller track. A first input-side rolling element is clamped between the first input-side counter track and a first input-side roller track and a second input-side rolling element is clamped between the second input-side counter track and a second input-side roller track. A first output-side rolling element is clamped between the first output-side counter track and a second output-side roller track and a second output-side rolling element is clamped between the second output-side counter track and a second output-side roller track.

  • Publication number: 20240073322
    Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, systems, apparatus, interfaces, methods, and articles of manufacture are provided for providing information incorporating additional data feeds, creating common arrangements, and improving performance in a virtual meeting. In some embodiments, a video conferencing system hosts a customized video conferencing and includes video conference settings data, participant display device data, supplemental data feed data, and processing instructions. The video conferencing system may identify (based on the video conference settings data) a number of data feeds for display on a display screen of each participant in a video conference and (based on the participant display device data) a screen specification for each display screen of each participant. The system may then compute an arrangement for the number of data feeds that fits within an available display area.

  • Publication number: 20240018951
    Abstract: A thruster system for use in a spacecraft combines chemical and electric or electrothermal propulsion. To that end a thruster may comprise a cavity including at least one inlet to receive a first fluid and a second fluid configured to chemically react with the first fluid within the cavity to generate a reaction product. Alternatively, the cavity may be configured to receive a monopropellant configured to chemically decompose within the cavity. The thruster system further comprises an energy source coupled to the cavity and configured to heat or ionize material within the cavity by emitting electromagnetic radiation. Still further, the thruster system comprises a nozzle provided at one end of the cavity and configured to direct heated material out of the cavity to generate thrust.
