Abstract: A tensioning device for a reciprocating flexible drive system, such as a wire rope is provided. The tensioning device provides a mechanism which effectively tensions the slack side of the wire rope while directly coupling the driven side of the wire rope to the load. The tensioning device slides within a housing to a first position where force from the driven side is applied directly to the load while the slack side is tensioned with a spring. When the wire rope is reversed, the tensioning device slides to a second position within the housing where force from the driven side is once again directly applied to the load.

Abstract: Cylinder-to-cylinder attachment method and construction featuring nonutiltion of mechanical fasteners or bonding, especially advantageous for attachment of cylinders which are composite or to be subjected to hydrostatic pressure. A fastening ring is interpositionally and rotatively engaged and aligned with a toothed axial end of each cylinder whereby the inwardly radial teeth for each cylinder appropriately mesh with the outer grooved circumferential surface of the fastening ring. The resultant joint is easily detachable and less susceptible than conventional joints to damage, breakage, degradation, stress concentrations and fluid infiltration.

Abstract: A circumferential rib-stiffened hollow cylinder and method for fabrication thereof featuring construction of the cylinder from complementarily shaped nestled prefabricated rings and resultant circumferential ribs which are integral with the rest of the cylinder. In one embodiment ring sections which are "L"-shaped in cross-section are axially and sequentially mated; ring sections which are "U"-shaped are axially and correspondingly integrated therewith, therein for a cylinder having internal circumferential ribs and thereout for a cylinder having external circumferential ribs. The dominant load path for the cylinder is through the reinforced cylinder elements, and the cylinder's wall-thickness-to-diameter ratio is effectively reduced, thereby allowing radial reinforcement of the ribs, reducing residual stresses and increasing strength; these advantages are especially significant for cylinders which are composite or are to be subjected to hydrostatic pressure. Moreover, in comparison with conventional cylinders of monocoque construction, manufacture and quality control may be expected to be more economical and cost-effective.

Abstract translation: 圆周肋加强的中空圆柱体及其制造方法，其特征在于，具有从与圆柱体的其余部分成一体的互补形状的预制环和所产生的周向肋的圆柱体的构造。 在一个实施例中，横截面为“L”形的环形部分轴向和顺序配合; “U”形的环形部分轴向地并相应地与其形成一体，其中具有一个具有内部周向肋的圆柱体，并且具有外圆周肋的圆柱体。 气缸的主要负载路径是通过加强缸体，圆柱体的壁厚比有效地减小，从而允许肋的径向加强，减少残余应力和增加强度; 这些优点对于复合或将要经受静水压力的气缸是特别重要的。 此外，与常规的单体结构的气缸相比，可以预期制造和质量控制将更经济和成本有效。
