  2. Mud agitator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_agitator

    A mud agitator is used in surface mud systems to suspend solids and maintain homogeneous mixture throughout the system. A mechanical agitator is driven by an explosion-proof motor, coupled to a gear box that drives the impeller shaft. The impellers (turbines) transform mechanical power into fluid circulation or agitation. The objective is to ...

  3. Wig wag (washing machines) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wig_wag_(washing_machines)

    A vertical-axis washing machine has two mechanisms: a central agitator for washing and a drum for spinning, both driven by the same motor and controlled independently by clutches to the belt drive. The wig-wag is mounted atop the washing machine's transmission, where it oscillates back and forth like a railroad signaling wigwag (hence the name ...

  4. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    A low code-rate close to zero implies a strong code that uses many redundant bits to achieve a good performance, while a large code-rate close to 1 implies a weak code. The redundant bits that protect the information have to be transferred using the same communication resources that they are trying to protect.

  5. Rotary vacuum-drum filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_vacuum-drum_filter

    An agitator is used to regulate the slurry if the texture is coarse and it is settling rapidly. Solids that are trapped on the surface of the drum are washed and dried after 2/3 of revolution, removing all the free moisture. [5] During the washing stage, the wash liquid can either be poured onto the drum or sprayed on the cake.

  6. Agitator (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agitator_(device)

    The Dual-action is a two-part agitator that has bottom washer fins that move back and forth and a spiral top that rotates clockwise to help guide the clothes to the bottom washer fins. The modern agitator, which is dual-action, was first made in Kenmore Appliances washing machines in the 1980s to present. These agitators are known by the ...

  7. Washing machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washing_machine

    Since the agitator and the drum are separate and distinct in a top-loading washing machine, the mechanism of a top-loader is inherently more complicated than a front-loading machine. Manufacturers have devised several ways to control the motion of the agitator during the wash and rinse separately from the high-speed rotation of the drum ...

  8. Mud Gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_Gun

    A mud gun is commonly used to guard against precipitates in a solids control system. The mud gun is installed in a mud tank. Furthermore, it is usually used together with mud agitator. The mud agitator is used in the middle of the tank while the mud gun is placed in the corner of the tank. [1] [2]

  9. Mud motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_motor

    Mud Motor Animation A mud motor (or drilling motor) is a progressive cavity positive displacement pump (PCPD) placed in the drill string to provide additional power to the bit while drilling. The PCPD pump uses drilling fluid (commonly referred to as drilling mud, or just mud) to create eccentric motion in the power section of the motor which ...
