  2. Tank steering systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_steering_systems

    Leopard 2. Tank steering systems allow a tank, or other continuous track vehicle, to turn. Because the tracks cannot be angled relative to the hull (in any operational design), steering must be accomplished by speeding one track up, slowing the other down (or reversing it), or a combination of both.

  3. Tank controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_controls

    The term "tank controls" comes from the steering mechanisms of old tanks, which had to stop completely before turning. [2] The term differs from the controls of literal tank driving games like Battlezone where dual analog sticks are mapped to the treads of the tank which may be moved together or alternately to turn.

  4. Dustcap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dustcap

    A dustcap is a small cover used on the valve stem of a bicycle or car tire to prevent dust or other small particles from entering the valve and damaging it. Dustcaps are usually made from plastic but may occasionally be made of metal. The dustcap is internally threaded and is secured by screwing it onto the end of the stem.

  5. Ackermann steering geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ackermann_steering_geometry

    Ackermann geometry. The Ackermann steering geometry (also called Ackermann's steering trapezium) [1] is a geometric arrangement of linkages in the steering of a car or other vehicle designed to solve the problem of wheels on the inside and outside of a turn needing to trace out circles of different radii.

  6. Differential steering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_steering

    Differential steering is the primary means of steering tracked vehicles, such as tanks and bulldozers, is also used in certain wheeled vehicles commonly known as skid-steer, and even implemented in some automobiles, where it is called torque vectoring, to augment steering by changing wheel direction relative to the vehicle.

  8. Dust cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_cap

    The dust cap (also known as dust dome, or dome) is a gently curved dome mounted either in concave or convex orientation over the central hole of most loudspeaker diaphragms. It protects the inner mechanics (such as the pole pieces and the voice coil ) from small particles (which can cause rubs ) and other contamination.

  9. Cross-drive steering transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-drive_steering...

    A later design of cross-drive transmission, the Allison X1100, was used in the 1970s experimental US MBT-70 and XM1 [3] tanks, then later adopted in the M1 Abrams.This adopts a different principle for the steering cross-coupling: instead of a hydro-dynamic torque converter, it uses a hydrostatic combination of a hydraulic pump and a hydraulic motor.
