    The 23 SAGE centers included 1 in Canada, [53] and the "SAGE control centers reached their full 22 site deployments in 1961 (out of 46 originally planned)." [ 54 ] The completed Minot AFB blockhouse received an AN/FSQ-7, but never received the FSQ-8 (the April 1, 1959, Minot Air Defense Sector consolidated with the Grand Forks ADS on March 1 ...

  3. Power take-off - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_take-off

    A split shaft PTO is mounted to the truck's drive shaft to provide power to the PTO. Such a unit is an additional gearbox that separates the vehicle's drive shaft into two parts: The gearbox-facing shaft which will transmit the power of the engine to the split shaft PTO; The axle-facing shaft which transmit the propelling power to the axle.

  4. Machine taper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_taper

    The rate of taper is 1:20 on diameter, in other words 0.600" on diameter per foot, .050" on diameter per inch. Tapers range from a Number 2 to a Number 20. The diameter of the big end in inches is always the taper size divided by 8, the small end is always the taper size divided by 10 and the length is the taper size divided by 2.

  5. Key (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_(engineering)

    Square keys are used for smaller shafts and rectangular faced keys are used for shaft diameters over 6.5 in (170 mm) or when the wall thickness of the mating hub is an issue. Set screws often accompany parallel keys to lock the mating parts into place. [3] The keyway is a longitudinal slot in both the shaft and mating part.

  6. Shaft alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_alignment

    Shaft alignment is the process of aligning two or more shafts with each other to within a tolerated margin. The resulting fault if alignment is not achieved within the demanded specifications is shaft misalignment, which may be offset or angular. Faults can lead to premature wear and damage to systems.

  7. Shaft (mechanical engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_(mechanical_engineering)

    The following stresses are induced in the shafts. Shear stresses due to the transmission of torque (due to torsional load). Bending stresses (tensile or compressive) due to the forces acting upon the machine elements like gears and pulleys as well as the self weight of the shaft. Stresses due to combined torsional and bending loads.

  8. Stave bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stave_bearing

    A stave bearing is a simple journal bearing where a shaft rotates in a bearing housing. Rather than the usual arrangement where the fixed part of the bearing surrounds most of the circumference of the shaft in one or two pieces, a stave bearing uses a large number of axial staves to support the shaft. A large housing is made with grooves ...

  9. Barrel threads - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrel_threads

    There are many systems for designating thread types (metric, unified, Whitworth, etc.).Threading can be specified by diameter, pitch, angle, length and fit tolerances.. However, the use of action threads is not well standardized within the firearms industry, and threading can vary between manufacturers and mo
