  2. Transmission control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Unit

    Known as an input speed sensor (ISS). This sensor sends a varying frequency signal to the TCU to determine the current rotational speed of the input shaft or torque converter. The TCU uses the input shaft speed to determine slippage across the torque converter and potentially to determine the rate of slippage across the bands and clutches. This ...

  3. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. [1] This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure, temperature, and liquid level.

  4. Rotary valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_valve

    A rotary valve (also called rotary-motion valve) is a type of valve in which the rotation of a passage or passages in a transverse plug regulates the flow of liquid or gas through the attached pipes. [1] The common stopcock is the simplest form of rotary valve. Rotary valves have been applied in numerous applications, including:

  5. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    The blue valve body is visible in-line with the pipe. The valve actuator opens or closes the butterfly disc of the valve based on electrical signals sent to the actuator. Another valve actuator is visible in the background, with windows to indicate the valve position. A valve actuator is the mechanism for opening and closing a valve. Manually ...

  6. Manual transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_transmission

    This means the output shaft rotates at the same speed as the selected gear, thus determining the gear ratio of the transmission. [16] The dog clutch is a sliding selector mechanism that sits around the output shaft. It has teeth to fit into the splines on the shaft, forcing that shaft to rotate at the same speed as the gear hub. However, the ...

  7. 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.

  8. Ford C4 transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_C4_transmission

    The early model C4 (1964–1969) used a .788-inch 24-spline input shaft, which was upgraded in 1970 to 26-spline and .839-inch. The upgrade also included a matching 26-spline clutch hub. In 1971, Ford went to a 26/24-spline input shaft, meaning the torque-converter side is 26-spline and the clutch hub is 24-spline.

  9. Eccentric (mechanism) - Wikipedia

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

    Eccentric bottom bracket on a Burley tandem bicycle held in place with two set screws. The term is also used to refer to the device often used on tandem bicycles with timing chains, single-speed bicycles with a rear disc brake or an internal-geared hub, or any bicycle with vertical dropouts and no derailleur, to allow slight repositioning, fore and aft, of a bottom bracket to properly tension ...
