  2. Matter (standard) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_(standard)

    Thread – low-power mesh protocol designed for battery-powered devices, which Matter uses as one of its supported transport layers; Zigbee and Z-Wave – wireless mesh protocols for home automation, can be used with Matter and a compatible bridge; Amazon Alexa – Amazon's smart assistant and home control system; HomeKit – Apple's smart home ...

  3. Linear-motion bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-motion_bearing

    A linear-motion bearing or linear slide is a bearing designed to provide free motion in one direction. There are many different types of linear motion bearings.. Motorized linear slides such as machine slides, X-Y tables, roller tables and some dovetail slides are bearings moved by drive mechanisms.

  4. Ball screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_screw

    Left inset: recirculating tube removed showing retainer bracket, loose balls and tube. Right inset: closer view of the nut cavity. A ball screw (or ballscrew) is a mechanical linear actuator that translates rotational motion to linear motion with little friction. A threaded shaft provides a helical raceway for ball bearings which act as a ...

  5. Thread (network protocol) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(network_protocol)

    Thread is an IPv6-based, low-power mesh networking technology for Internet of things (IoT) products. [1] The Thread protocol specification is available at no cost; however, this requires agreement and continued adherence to an end-user license agreement (EULA), which states "Membership in Thread Group is necessary to implement, practice, and ship Thread technology and Thread Group specifications."

  6. Linear actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_actuator

    Threaded onto the lead screw is a lead nut or ball nut with corresponding helical threads. The nut is prevented from rotating with the lead screw (typically the nut interlocks with a non-rotating part of the actuator body). When the lead screw is rotated, the nut will be driven along the threads. The direction of motion of the nut depends on ...

  7. Bearing surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_surface

    It is often the underside of a screw head (male seat, marked A) or a flat at the end of the screw thread (female seat, marked B). A bearing surface in mechanical engineering is the area of contact between two objects. It usually is used in reference to bolted joints and bearings, but can be applied to a wide variety of engineering applications ...

  8. Line shaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_shaft

    A line shaft is a power-driven rotating shaft for power transmission that was used extensively from the Industrial Revolution until the early 20th century. Prior to the widespread use of electric motors small enough to be connected directly to each piece of machinery, line shafting was used to distribute power from a large central power source ...

  9. Drive shaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_shaft

    Vibration: An early and common symptom of a failing drive shaft is an intense vibration coming from underneath the vehicle. Worn out couplings, u-joints, or bearings cause excessive drive shaft vibration. Turning problems: Problems with turning the vehicle, both during slow and high-speed drives, is another significant sign of a bad drive shaft.
