Abstract: In this mechanism, the linear or rotational motion is transmitted from one side to the other in only one direction, while its reverse motion and both other side motion directions can run freely without transmission. To obtain this function of transmitting the motion between both sides in different natures, the link that transmits the motion should be linked with a body which is not controlled by the in-between relative motion. The driving side can oscillate in short strokes or move with unlimited motion, both motion natures can have its own transmission mechanism design. Links could be used in pairs for force balance. One of the ways to transmit the motion from the driving side to the links is by using a waving surface to push and release the link. These waves can be formed in number which is different from the number of link pairs in order to ensure different phases and hence insure contacts of some of them for high and stable transmitted forces and torques.

Abstract: The enclosed invention is a new one way clutch where linear or rotary motion between two bodies is transmitted in only one direction by one or more links moving in one of the bodies and connected with the other by friction or positive engagement, the link(s) plays the role of a follower to the cam surface on the other body. The link(s) could be rigid or flexible or in combination of both, and its contact is insured by springs which could be separate or part of any of the mechanism bodies. The link(s) causes the two bodies to cease and move together in the driving direction, and to release in the opposite free movement direction. One of the two bodies can be omitted and replaced by a part of the using machine. Links and cam lubes could be used in pairs. If links reset is needed, flexible elements or additional cam-follower mechanism can be used to avoid impact. Higher forces and torques can be transmitted with minimum backlash, surface fatigue and maximum indexing rate and service life.

Abstract: A directional control and servo valve is provided. The valve includes a valve housing and a valving element. The valve housing includes a space, and a plurality of first cavities. The valving element includes two sides thereof. Each side includes a plurality of second cavities that corresponds the plurality of first cavities. The valving element includes plurality of webs formed in the plurality of second cavities. Each web separates the plurality of second cavities on each side from each other. The plurality of webs includes a plurality of holes adapted to connect the plurality of second cavities of both sides. The valving element is disposed in the space of the valve housing such that a plurality of control edges is configured that separates at least one first cavity with respective at least one second cavity to form control orifices that are symmetrical along both sides of the valving element.

Abstract: The torque motor as disclosed depends on decreasing the gap between a surface on a fixed part and a corresponding inclined facing surface on a rotating part, where the gap width is proportional to its distance from the angle vertex, in magnifying the electromagnetic force and its resulting torque. Therefore, the surface on the fixed part starts directly at—or close to—a point in align with the rotating part center of rotation, and hence the gap width is minimum at the start point and increases away from this point due to the inclination angle. The motor includes features, such as, utilizing many pairs of facing surfaces, many electromagnetic circuits; arrange the surfaces in pairs for balanced forces, works in one or two directions, the two directions electromagnetic circuits installed in one or two levels, and precautions and ways to avoid magnetic field interference and leakage.

Therefore, the surface on the fixed part starts directly at—or close to—a point in align with the rotating part center of rotation, and hence the gap width is minimum at the start point and increases away from this point due to the inclination angle. The motor may have various features such as utilizing many pairs of facing surfaces, many electromagnetic circuits; arrange the surfaces in pairs for balanced forces, works in one or two directions, the two directions electromagnetic circuits installed in one or two levels. Precautions and ways to avoid magnetic field interference and leakage should be considered.

Abstract: The new valve incorporates a poppet or spool that covers one of two ports at one position, and then switches to cover another port at a second position. In each of the two positions, it separates the covered port from a third port, and connects this third port with the uncovered port, and it reverses the connections at the second position. To ensure high speed of response, the poppet or spool has lowest possible mass and consequently inertia, it switches between the two positions in short stroke by the action of an actuator, and returns by the action of the liquid (or the gas in other applications) high pressure that could provide high displacing force, or by a spring, or by both.

Abstract: The servovalve incorporates a rotating plate valving element which connects between the valve ports through cavities formed inside it. The valving element cavities are formed symmetrically in both the valving elements sides, where each pair of symmetrical cavities is optionally separated by a stiffening web. Holes through the webs connect between the symmetrical cavities. The control orifices are formed between some edges in the valving element cavities and edges of cavities in adjacent fixed elements surrounding the valving element and properly designed for this purpose. The flow ducts inside the valves are formed by the cavities in the valving element and the adjacent parts to provide enough flowing cross sectional areas. The control orifices are formed in pairs at both valving element sides to duplicate the area and provide symmetry for flow forces lateral components balance. Each portion of the valving elements is subjected to the same pressure at its both sides to provide static balance.

Abstract: This invention presents several configuration of a new positive displacement pump with variable geometric volume for hydraulic drive and control system or else, this pump consists of one more pumping groups. When one pumping group is used an external energy storage system is to be utilized. This is not necessary in the case when the pump has two or more pumping groups. A pumping group consists of a cam that pushes one or more followers, which encircle the cam to form enclosed chamber. During the cam rotation the followers rise and fall. During the followers rise, the encircled volume between the cam and the followers expands, and sucks oil. The rising followers push control oil that exists in a control chamber behind them. In a pump with more than one pumping group, e.g. two pumping groups, this control oil is fed to the control chamber of the other pumping group, with followers in opposite phase with respect to those of the first pumping group.
