  1. 1. Requirements and Analysis of an Overload Protection Mechanism for an Electromechanical Linear Actuator

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Mats Vesterberg; [2022]
    Keywords : EMA; Electromechanical Actuator; Linear Actuator; Shock load; Protection mechanism; Elektromekaniska ställdon; Linjära ställdon; Shocklaster; Överlastskydd;

    Abstract : Cascade Drives specializes in high-performance electromechanical linear actuators (EMA). The company has developed a range of linear rack and pinion actuators based on a patented load distribution technique that allows multiple pinions to interact with a single gear rack. READ MORE

  3. 2. Verification of elastomer characteristics in electro-mechanical linear actuator

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Rohit Karmungikar; [2022]
    Keywords : ANSYS; Aging; Hyperelastic; MATLAB and Mooney-Rivlin; ANSYS; Åldrande; Hyperelastic; MATLAB och Mooney-Rivlin;

    Abstract : Cascade Drives develops electromechanical actuators using a rack and pinion configuration to achieve a combination of high load and high-speed operation. A patented load distribution mechanism enables the use of multiple pinions on a single rack, resulting in a compact unit with high positional accuracy capable of absorbing shock loads. READ MORE

  4. 3. Concept Design Improvement of Shift Fork for New Dog Clutch Actuator : Simulation driven product development approach

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Industriell produktutveckling, produktion och design

    Abstract : Kongsberg Automotive is developing a brand-new actuator for engaging and disengaging a clutch for different driveline applications. This master thesis research improves the concept design of the shift fork for the new Dog-Clutch Actuator using Design for Manufacturability (DFM). READ MORE

  5. 4. Development of Inlet Valve in an Oil­-free Novel Steam Engine

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Gautam Rajeev; Dinesh Thirunavukkarasu; [2021]
    Keywords : Steam engine; rotational valve; actuator mechanism; sealing; Ångmotor; rotationsventil; ställdon; tätning;

    Abstract : A novel compact steam engine design could be used to replace current combustion engines in the rapidly changing world of renewable energy. Especially with the increased research into alternative fuels such as hydrogen fuel cells and methane, which would vastly improve the efficiency of a steam engine. READ MORE

  6. 5. Improved Release Mechanisms for Aerospace Applications

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad mekanik

    Author : Baran Hamad; Markus Englund; [2021]
    Keywords : release mechanisms; hdrm; split spool initiator; reusable; smart materials; shape memory alloy; sma; pyrotechnic; non-explosive; spacecraft; nitinol; releasemekanismer; hdrm; fästelement; split spool-initierare; återanvändbar; minnesmetall; pyrotekniska; icke-explosiva; rymdfarkost; nitinol;

    Abstract : Hold down release mechanisms (HDRMs) are used for tightly attaching segments of bodies together when it is desired to release them rapidly at some point. When transporting sensitive payloads on launch vehicles, the challenge arises of releasing the fastened segments of the spacecraft without risking damage to the costly equipment. READ MORE
