Inventor: WEN SHIH-CHOU
IPC: F16H61/66
Filed: 2011-11-25
Abstract: An easily switchable automatic transmission eccentric shaft includes an input shaft over which a movable centrifugal saddle is fit. An elastic body is arranged between the centrifugal saddle and the input shaft. The centrifugal saddle is provided at one side thereof with an openable weight assembly, which selectively moves the centrifugal saddle with respect to the input shaft.  A balance weight is coupled to one side of the weight assembly. The balance weight forms a limiting structure that includes two retention members and an elastic element between the retention members. The limiting structure helps controlling preciseness of variable transmission, helps increasing available transmission positions, facilitates the weight assemblies returning back to home positions, and is suitable for high horsepower applications.

Abstract: A machine prepares semi frozen food products and/or beverages from pre-prepared (e.g. frozen) cups. A user chooses the desired frozen cup, inserts it into the machine, chooses how they would like it prepared from a range of thickness options, and the machine then opens a sealed chamber door and inserts the product upward into the chamber and prepares the product by blending it in the cup. Upon removal of the product and resealing of the chamber door, the cleaning mechanisms provide thorough cleaning of all food contact surfaces and the chamber interior. Automatic high temperature steam sanitation takes place in the chamber if the machine is not used for an extended period of time, thus greatly reducing or eliminating the need for manual cleansing and sanitation by an attendant and ensuring healthy food preparation at all times.

Abstract: A method of making a composite rotor yoke includes preparing a molded rotor yoke in a closed cavity tool and possibly machining at least one portion of the molded rotor yoke to form the rotor yoke. In the preferred embodiment, preparing the molded rotor yoke is accomplished by applying layers of uncured low-flow composite material and a layer of uncured high-flow adhesive; substantially enclosing the uncured molded rotor yoke in the closed cavity tool; applying pressure so as to compress the uncured molded rotor yoke; and curing the uncured molded rotor yoke. During the curing process, the high-flow adhesive bleeds out of the molded rotor yoke, thereby preventing marcels from forming through movement of the low-flow composite material.
