  2. Revolute joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolute_joint

    A revolute joint (also called pin joint or hinge joint) is a one-degree-of-freedom kinematic pair used frequently in mechanisms and machines. [1] The joint constrains the motion of two bodies to pure rotation along a common axis. The joint does not allow translation, or sliding linear motion, a constraint not shown in the diagram. Almost all ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Door_closer

    Modern manual door closer Eclipse door spring and separate checking mechanism A door closer is a mechanical device that regulates the speed and action of a door ’s swing. [ 1 ] Manual closers store the force used to open the door in some type of spring and reuse it to close the door.

  4. GM 10.5-inch 14-bolt differential - Wikipedia

    However, the 10.5" 14-bolt axle remains in production today, specifically utilized in GMC Savana and Chevrolet Express vans. Notably, the 11.5" 14-bolt axle is featured in third-generation Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. There are discernible differences between the GM and Ram versions, evident in the gaskets used and the axle cover designs.

  5. Bolted joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolted_joint

    The curve representing a clamped parts-to-bolt stiffness ratio of 0.01 shows that when the relative stiffness of the clamped parts is very low, almost all of the load is transferred to the bolt, down to the point where a compressive load equals the preload, and separation at the bolt head occurs, reducing the force in the bolt to zero.

  6. Hinge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinge

    An ornate brass door hinge A barrel hinge. A hinge is a mechanical bearing that connects two solid objects, typically allowing only a limited angle of rotation between them. Two objects connected by an ideal hinge rotate relative to each other about a fixed axis of rotation, with all other translations or rotations prevented; thus a hinge has one degree of freedom.

  7. Universal joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_joint

    A universal joint. A universal joint (also called a universal coupling or U-joint) is a joint or coupling connecting rigid shafts whose axes are inclined to each other. It is commonly used in shafts that transmit rotary motion.

  8. AK-74 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AK-74

    Apart from several minor improvements, such as a lightened bolt and carrier assembly to reduce the impulse of the gas piston and bolt carrier during firing, the rifle features a new glass-filled polyamide stock that retains the shape of the original AK-74 fixed laminated wood stock, but side-folds to the left like the skeletonised AKS-74 ...
