New Low-Loss Planetary Shift Transmission

A novel type of planetary shift transmission has been designed with reduced parasitic losses. Instead of oil-immersed multi-plate clutches, a small number of external dry-friction devices is used to engage the six available gear ratios. With dry friction, the application force, and the drag when disengaged, are significantly reduced.

New Technology Provides Precise, Dynamic Control of the Pitch of a Boat Propeller

Currently, propeller pitch control uses three approaches: it is based upon either hydraulic oil pressure, mechanical control using lateral motion along the axis of the drive shaft, or electric motor control with the drive motor embedded in the hub. All three of these techniques are either expensive to manufacture and install,

NOLA Dam It All with Sand Sausages

New Orleans, Louisiana (NOLA) was flooded due to a breach in the levee.

Small gaps in such a levee can easily be filled with sandbags if enough of them are around and there are enough people to fill and place the bags. However a larger breech can be filled easier with this “NOLA Dam it All” system.

Non-Contacting Cleanroom Conveyor

Levitated conveyors move silently and seemingly effortlessly

without lubrication or wear-producing debris as magnetic forces provide suspension without wheels. Ideal for medical or semiconductor clean rooms where dust or contaminants are

prohibited, these systems save power as well.

Our entire track system is totally passive inexpensive steel, easily installed and modified.
