  2. Desmodromic valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desmodromic_valve

    The common valve spring system is satisfactory for traditional mass-produced engines that do not rev highly and are of a design that requires low maintenance. [1] At the period of initial desmodromic development, valve springs were a major limitation on engine performance because they would break from metal fatigue.

  3. Test fixture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_fixture

    Test fixtures can be set up three different ways: in-line, delegate, and implicit. In-line setup creates the test fixture in the same method as the rest of the test. While in-line setup is the simplest test fixture to create, it leads to duplication when multiple tests require the same initial data.

  4. Valvetrain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valvetrain

    Cutaway of a dual overhead camshaft engine 1969 AMC V8 overhead valve engine. The rocker cover has been removed, so the pushrods, rocker arms, valve springs, and valves are visible. A valvetrain is a mechanical system that controls the operation of the intake and exhaust valves in an internal combustion engine. [1]

  5. Two-stroke power valve system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-stroke_power_valve_system

    A stroke is the action of a piston travelling the full length of its cylinder.In a two-stroke engine, one of the two strokes combines primarily the intake stroke and the combustion stroke, while the other stroke primarily combines the compression stroke and the exhaust stroke, though technically since both ports are exposed during both the combustion and compression strokes, some reversion ...

  6. Bed of nails tester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bed_of_nails_tester

    Spring loaded pins are a component of the bed of nails tester. A bed of nails tester is a traditional electronic test fixture used for in-circuit testing.It has pins inserted into holes in an epoxy phenolic glass cloth laminated sheet (G-10) which are aligned using tooling pins to make contact with test points on a printed circuit board and are also connected to a measuring unit by wires.

  7. Partial stroke testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_stroke_testing

    Partial stroke testing (or PST) is a technique used in a control system to allow the user to test a percentage of the possible failure modes of a shut down valve without the need to physically close the valve. PST is used to assist in determining that the safety function will operate on demand.

  8. Tickford Vehicle Engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tickford_Vehicle_Engineering

    The XR6 continued to use the same 4.0-litre inline six-cylinder shared with the base models but with Tickford alloy cylinder heads, cam and higher pressure valve springs with unique Tickford EEC programming. A press bent 2.5-inch exhaust was also added, a minor upgrade over the standard 2.25-inch system.

  9. In-circuit testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In-circuit_testing

    A common form of in-circuit testing uses a bed-of-nails tester.This is a fixture that uses an array of spring-loaded pins known as "pogo pins". When a printed circuit board is aligned with and pressed down onto the bed-of-nails tester, the pins make electrical contact with locations on the circuit board, allowing them to be used as test points for in-circuit testing.
