  2. Binary cam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_cam

    The binary cam is a design for the pulley system of a compound bow. Craig Yehle, director of research and development at Bowtech Archery, received a patent [ 1 ] for the design on December 11, 2007. Bowtech started equipping its bows with the new cam design in the 2005 model year.

  3. Cam timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cam_timer

    Cam timers don't offer the greater flexibility that CPU-based controllers provide. In addition to offering more wash program variations, a CPU-based washing machine controller can respond to malfunctions, automatically initiate test cycles, reducing manufacturing costs, and provide fault codes in the field, again reducing repair costs.

  4. Compound bow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_bow

    Archer Erika Jones shooting a compound bow at the 2013 Archery World Cup. The bow has the axle attaching the limb to cam mounted at the edge of the cam as opposed to the center. In modern archery, a compound bow is a bow that uses a levering system, usually of cables and pulleys, to bend the limbs. [1]

  5. Cam (mechanism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cam_(mechanism)

    Constant lead barrel cam in an American Pacemaker lathe. This cam is used to provide a repeatable cross slide setting when threading with a single-point tool. A cylindrical cam, or barrel cam, is a cam in which the follower rides on the surface of a cylinder. In the most common type, the follower rides in a groove cut into the surface of a ...

  6. Dwell mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwell_mechanism

    A single dwell linkage takes advantage of the behavior of a link with a stationary revolute (hinge) or prismatic (sliding) joint and its interaction with special coupler curves. There are two methods of producing a single-dwell: arc-based and linear-based. An arc-based single dwell linkage uses the approximation of a circular arc.

  7. Variable camshaft timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_camshaft_timing

    For twin-cam or DOHC engines, VCT was used on either the intake or exhaust camshaft. (Engines that have VCT on both camshafts are now designated as Ti-VCT.↓) The use of variable camshaft timing on the exhaust camshaft is for improved emissions, and vehicles with VCT on the exhaust camshaft do not require exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) as retarding the exhaust cam timing achieves the same ...

    Official Olympic Video on YouTube shows 1968 timing system and process @ 7:19 According to the IAAF , any record in athletics ( world , Olympic, or national) or qualifying time for Olympic Games or World Championships set in a sprint event must be timed by a FAT system to be valid.

  9. Timing belt (camshaft) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timing_belt_(camshaft)

    The 1966 Pontiac OHC Six engine was the first US mass-produced vehicle to use a timing belt, [21] [22] while the 1966 Fiat Twin Cam engine was the first mass-produced engine to use a timing belt with twin camshafts. Carmakers began to adopt timing belts in the 1970s and compared to timing chains are less expensive, smaller, lighter, quieter ...
