Electromechanical rotary actuator operates over wide temperature range

Electromechanical rotary actuator, which operates over wide temperature range, contains a spring stop which has been calculated to limit internal deceleration loads to a magnitude equal to stall torque. Cryogenic capability is obtained by using dry lubricant on the gears and no lubrication on the bearings.

Sealing a rubber bladder between two sections of an accumulator

Leak-free clamping of a two section accumulator is accomplished by a flat metallic ring molded peripherally to the rubber flange of the bladder, and an inset rubber seal bonded to the face of the flange of each section. Method maintains constant torque on the clamping bolts.

Multi-purpose tool mitten

Tool mitten provides a low reaction torque source of power for wrench, screwdriver, or drill activities. The technique employed prevents the attachments from drifting away from the operator. While the tools are specifically designed for space environments, they can be used on steel scaffolding, in high building maintenance, or underwater environments.

Torsional tubular disconnect

Torque driven disconnect maintains connection on a gas supply line until desired parting occurs at a remote location. It consists of a helical plastic tube with a disconnect coupling fitted for an interference condition slip joint, and a rotationally constrained support connected to a gas source.
