181 MAGNETIC ROTATION RESTRICTING DEVICE US14706089 2015-05-07 US20160266601A1 2016-09-15 Bo CHRISTENSEN
A magnetic rotation restricting device includes a support unit, a rotary unit, a magnetic unit enabling the support unit and the rotary unit to be magnetically attracted to each other; and a restricting unit. With the arrangement of magnetic attraction, and the engagement of the toothed portions and the threaded portion, and the restricted space, the structure of the magnetic rotation restricting device is very stable, and therefore suitable for use in an assembly member which needs to be used under high speed environment (such as extreme sports). Besides, only the restricting unit needs to be released when adjusting the angle of the assembly member, and a restricting force (the magnetic force) will be produced during angle adjustment to prevent inertia-caused uncontrolled rotation of the assembly member, so as to enhance the precision of adjustment.

The second member is mounted for rotation about an axis and for controlled shifting movement along the axis relative to the first member between a first position which corresponds to the unlocked mode of the assembly and a second position which corresponds to a locked mode of the assembly.
187 Optical Sighting System US13225946 2011-09-06 US20120053878A1 2012-03-01 Bernard T. Windauer; William T. McDonald; Ted C. Almgren
An automatic optical sighting system generates at least one adjustment for an adjustable optical system based on at least one detected condition, an appropriate dynamic model of a projectile in flight, and a solution of the equations of motion in flight, so that the projectile will have a trajectory between an origin and a selected target that helps the projectile to hit the target.
188 PARKING BRAKE SYSTEM US13147061 2010-02-01 US20110290064A1 2011-12-01 Takaya Azumi; Naoto Shibui; Satoru Masuda
In a parking brake system, a locking tooth (17a) of a ratchet plate (17) is configured to have: a first area (S1) in which a locking claw (19c) of a ratchet pawl (19) comes into contact with the locking tooth and remains there in an equilibrium state when a parking brake lever is pulled up and thereafter loosened while a release rod being pressed; and a second area (S2) in which the locking claw remains there in a state of halfway engagement of tooth tips when a pressing force of the release rod is released. With this configuration, when the locking claw (19c) comes into contact with a portion closer to a tip of the locking tooth (17a) beyond the first area (S1), a line of force (F1) is maintained due to the pressing force of the release rod. Accordingly, the locking claw (19c) does not become in the state of halfway engagement of tooth tips at the second area (S2), and the locking claw (19c) slides towered the tooth tip to prevent beforehand the occurrence of the state of halfway engagement of tooth tips. Further, even if an occupant erroneously pulls up the parking brake lever toward an operational position while the release rod being pressed, it is possible to reliably prevent the occurrence of the state of halfway engagement of tooth tips in a ratchet mechanism.

192 Variable position hand control mount for operator controls US09953123 2001-09-17 US06647820B2 2003-11-18 James Edward McKeown; Stephen Paul Foisy
A mounting system for an operator control implement comprises a manipulation tube which defines a first axis and upon one end of which an operator control implement is adapted to be mounted. The manipulation tube extends through a housing within which a first clutch assembly is disposed, and in conjunction with which there is disposed a first cam member. A first fixed support member defines a second axis, and a second support member is rotatably mounted upon the first support member. The second support member is fixedly mounted upon the housing, and a second clutch assembly is interposed between the first and second support members. When the manipulation tube is rotated around the first axis, the first cam member causes the first clutch assembly to effectively permit the manipulation tube to go from a LOCKED state to a RELEASED state such that the manipulation tube can undergo axial movements along the first axis, and similarly, the second cam member causes the second clutch assembly to effectively permit the second support member to go from a LOCKED state to a RELEASED state such that the manipulation tube can undergo rotational movements around the second axis. The operator control implement can thus be adjustably positioned with respect to an operator station so as to render the implement accessible to a pilot or operator regardless of the stature of the pilot or operator.

The shaft (15) is journaled in a pair of support plates (10, 11) which are rigidly connected to one another, and brake discs (23) having brake linings (22) are arranged between the lever (14) and the support plates (10, 11). Cup springs (24) provide a spring force acting transversely to the operational direction of the lever (14), so that frictional forces provided by the brake linings (22) assure a smooth and jolt free operation of the lever (14).
195 Method and apparatus for an electromagnetic joystick lock with flux canceling driver circuit US122003 1998-07-24 US5953196A 1999-09-14 Daniel E. Zimmermann
The locking force of an electromagnetic joystick lock with flux having a flux canceling driver circuit is controlled in order to maintain the control lever of a joystick in a desired position. In one embodiment, the locking force may be in either an activated or deactivated state, and one of a forward or reverse current is applied to the coils of the lock in response to the state, in order to eliminate the residual magnetism when the locking force is deactivated.
196 Indicating positive positioning selector knob lock US7222 1993-01-22 US5329829A 1994-07-19 Leslie J. Sell
An interfering surface is disposed between a rotating selector knob and a stop to prevent unwanted rotation of the selector knob and wherein release of the stop requires displacement of the knob in an axial direction relative to the stop to bypass the interfering surfaces thereby permitting selective rotation of the knob.
197 Locking mechanisms US592300 1990-10-02 US5074703A 1991-12-24 Peter G. Dawson
A pyrometer has a lock nut that engages a threaded sighting tube. The lock nut encloses a ratchet mechanism formed by two coaxial collars with inclined ratchet teeth at their ends. The teeth are urged together by a helical spring, one of the collars being prevented from rotation relative to the nut by means of a pin that engages a slot in the collar. The other collar has an annular face which is urged by a disc spring against a washer locked with the body of the pyrometer so as to form a friction clutch. The ratchet allows the nut to be tightened but it can only be untightened by overcoming the friction of the clutch.
198 Arresting apparatus for fixation of an adjusted position US267832 1988-11-07 US4919036A 1990-04-24 Peter Eng
To order to positively lock or arrest an adjusted position at a mechanical device, for instance the elevation position at a firing device, with negligible play, wherein there is fixed the position set by a hand wheel serving for adjustment of the elevation position of the firing device, there is provided a locking or arresting apparatus comprising a clamping device arranged at a stationary part or housing of the firing device. The clamping device comprises two jaw members. By means of the clamping device, following setting of the desired position, such as the elevation position of the firing device, a ring member fixedly connected with the rotatably mounted hand wheel can be clamped between both clamping jaw members by the clamping device. In this way, the ring member can be positively arrested or fixed in position. The locking or arresting apparatus has many fields of application for all types of mechanical devices of different construction.
199 Rotary control having variable detents US798657 1985-11-15 US4647889A 1987-03-03 John L. Addis
A rotary control having a variable detent is disclosed. The control, for electrical instruments and the like, includes a manually rotatable shaft to which a plate is coaxially mounted. The plate includes magnetizable flutes extending radially therefrom, each flute corresponding to a rotational stop position of the rotary control. Spaced adjacent the plate is a switchable electromagnet that forms a detent. A control switch in communication with the electromagnet selectably energizes it to engage magnetically the flutes successively as the shaft is manually rotated, stopping the rotary control at each rotational stop position. The switch also de-energizes the electromagnet so that the shaft may be continuously variable. A plurality of electromagnets can be positioned about a plate to vary the locations of the rotational stop positions. In a separate embodiment, a plurality of plates, each with an associated electromagnet, is mounted coaxially on the shaft.
200 Multiple mode control lever assembly US333602 1981-12-23 US4440040A 1984-04-03 Carl E. Kittle; James E. Roach
A multiple mode single lever control lever assembly includes a lever fixed for pivotal movement with a pivot member rotatably mounted in a housing. The pivot member includes detent recesses, a centering, spring-engaging tab and a friction disk-engaging finger. An arm is slidable in a bore in the housing, is biased towards the pivot member and carries a detent follower and a centering spring-engaging tab. A rotatable index member includes cam surfaces which cooperate with corresponding cam surfaces on the housing so that the index member moves axially to frictionally engage clutch disks with the friction disks upon rotation of the index member while a ramp surface on the index member engages the arm to uncouple the arm from the centering spring and to uncouple the detent follower from the pivot member.
