Abstract: A pulling tool is provided with a rotatable drum having a cable wound thereon. A motor is drivingly connected to the rotatable drum and the rotatable drum and motor are disposed within a unique housing structure. The rotatable drum is driven by a planetary gear system that is disposed within the rotatable drum to provide a compact assembly. A belt and pulley system is provided for delivering torque from the motor to the planetary gear system. The rotatable drum is provided with a two-piece stepped construction that allows the planetary gear system to be assembled within the drum and allows for the initial wraps of a cable around the smaller diameter portion of the stepped drum.

Abstract: A wheel end of a vehicle includes a knuckle and a wheel and wheel hub rotatably mounted to the knuckle. A CV-joint is positioned adjacent to the wheel hub. A clutch ring is slidable between engagement with one of the wheel hub and the CV-joint or both. A pneumatic annular actuator is connected to a shift fork that is engaged with the clutch ring for movement of the clutch ring between engaged and dis-engaged. The shift fork includes a base portion and an L-shaped section. The L-shaped section includes a plurality of slots therein to allow the shift fork to deflect and pivot when a misalignment occurs between the teeth of the constant velocity joint half shaft and the clutch ring during assembly of the CV-joint to the wheel hub. The pneumatic actuator includes an elastomeric diaphragm wall that includes a compliant stop extending axially therefrom.

Abstract translation: 车辆的车轮端部包括转向节和可转动地安装在转向节上的车轮和轮毂。 CV接头位于轮毂附近。 离合器环可以在与轮毂和CV接头中的一个或两者接合之间滑动。 气动环形致动器连接到与离合器环接合的换档拨叉，用于离合器环在接合和解除接合之间移动。 换档叉包括基部和L形截面。 L形部分在其中包括多个槽，以在将CV接头组装到轮毂时在等速接头半轴的齿与离合器环之间发生不对准时允许换档叉偏转和枢转。 气动致动器包括弹性体隔膜壁，其包括从其轴向延伸的柔性止动件。
