International Classification:

B60T 1/06
B60B 27/02

US Classification:

188 18 A

Abstract:

A brake hub assembly for coupling to the axle of a vehicle, the brake hub assembly including a hub defining a central axis, a wheel flange plate removeably coupled to the hub, and a brake disk removeably coupled to the hub. Where when the hub is coupled to the axle, at least one of the wheel flange and the brake disk is removable from the hub without removing the hub from the axle.

Brian Fecht - Swartz Creek MI, US

International Classification:

B60T 1/06
B60B 27/02

US Classification:

188 18 A

Abstract:

A brake hub assembly for coupling to a disk face of a wheel includes a hub body and a wheel flange extending radially from the hub body. The wheel flange includes a substantially planar mounting surface and an outboard edge. The outboard edge is curved to substantially conform to a deflection of the rim under side load.

International Classification:

H01F 27/40
H01F 27/02
H01F 27/42
G01R 31/00

Abstract:

A distribution transformer monitor includes a housing arranged for positioning in proximity to a distribution transformer vessel. The monitor also includes a sensor arranged in the housing, which is positioned to generate digital data associated with at least one environmental condition that exists inside the distribution transformer vessel, and a processing circuit arranged to determine from the generated digital data that the at least one environmental condition has crossed a threshold. The sensor may include any one or more of a temperature sensor, a camera, an accelerometer, a pressure sensor, and a microphone. The housing of the distribution transformer monitor may include at least one indicator legend arranged to facilitate positioning of the housing in a substantially vertical orientation relative to the distribution transformer vessel.

International Classification:

G01R 31/62
G01J 5/00
G01P 15/18
H02J 50/00

Abstract:

In at least some cases, an embodiment of an electric power industry structure monitor is arranged as a distribution transformer monitor. In at least some cases, an electric power industry structure monitor is arranged as a tilt sensor monitor. In at least some cases an electric power industry structure monitor is arranged as a high-voltage tower (e.g., power pole) monitor. In some cases, the electric power industry structure monitor includes a housing arranged for positioning on an electric power industry structure, and a sensor arranged in the housing. The sensor is positioned to generate digital data associated with at least one environmental condition that exists proximal to the electric power industry structure monitor. The monitor also includes a processing circuit arranged to determine from the generated digital data that the at least one environmental condition has crossed a threshold.

Inventors:

- Novi MI, US
Jeffrey T. Root - Howell MI, US

International Classification:

F16D 7/00
F16L 15/08

Abstract:

A torque-limiting fastener and a method of assembling the same includes a drive shell, a driven fastener carried by the drive shell, and a clutch axially between the fastener and the drive shell. The drive shell may have a shell base wall including drive-off surfaces, drive-on surfaces, and a shell skirt extending axially away from the shell base wall. The driven fastener may have a fastener base wall including driven-on surfaces, driven-off surfaces, drive tang pockets between the driven-on and driven-off surfaces, and driven-on beam pockets, and a radially outer wall extending in an axial direction away from the fastener base wall. The clutch may have a plate, a driven beam, and a driven tang, wherein the driven beam and the drive tang are cantilevered with respect to the plate. A drive shell, driven fastener, and clutch are individually disclosed.

B60C 23/04
B60C 23/20
B60C 25/00

Abstract:

A vehicle monitoring system monitors a vehicle characteristic and, from the monitoring, determines the state of a vehicle component. The system may set an alert and may communicate that alert to a user or supervisory authority. The state of the vehicle component may relate to a vehicle tire and to the potential delamination of a tire.
