Title: Cam bar centering mechanism
Inventor: CORNAY PAUL J
IPC: F16D3/42

Granted: 2007-08-15
Abstract: Universal joint (100) includes a centering mechanism (100A) for supporting the universal and forcing the two joint halves to operate at the same angle thereby causing the joint to operate at constant velocity at all angles. Each shaft (134, 135) of the joint (100) is rotatably connected to the centering mechanism (100A). Movement of one of the shafts (134, 135) at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the coupling yoke (136) is transmitted to the other shaft (135, 134) by the centering mechanism (100A) and the centering mechanism (100A) causes the other shaft (135, 134) to likewise move at the same angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the coupling yoke (136). The centering mechanism(100A) includes cam rods (102, 103) supported within a cam tube (101), which arrangement allows a full range of movement of the shafts (134, 135) at angles of 90°.

Abstract: In a paper making assembly an essentially fixed but adjustable blade scrapes the surface of a rotating drum. The blade is mounted on an arm which rises and falls in response to the change in pressure within a flexible hose (8) under the arm (5). In its axial direction the hose (8) is esp. longer than the arm. The arm end makes contact with a de-activating switch limiting arm travel. The de-activation switch prevents contact between the hose (8) and the arm (5) in a given movement sector and limits pressure by the arm (5) on the base (7). The de-activation switch has an effective axial length which limits the force exerted by the blade holder (5) with the hose (8) along the length of the blade (4).
