  2. DW-link - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DW-link

    The DW-link uses anti-squat to eliminate "suspension bob." Squat is defined as the tendency of rear suspension to compress under acceleration. The anti-squat used in the DW-link system is achieved by a minimisation of torque about the centre of mass. The DW-link system has also been designed to minimise pedal feedback caused by suspension travel.

  3. Bicycle drivetrain systems - Wikipedia

    A chain drive and rear derailleur gear change, the most popular system in use today A shaft-drive with crankset and rear gear hub. Bicycle drivetrain systems are used to transmit power on bicycles, tricycles, quadracycles, unicycles, or other human-powered vehicles from the riders to the drive wheels.

  5. Electronic throttle control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_throttle_control

    A typical ETC system consists of three major components: (i) an accelerator pedal module (ideally with two or more independent sensors), (ii) a throttle valve that can be opened and closed by an electric motor (sometimes referred to as an electric or electronic throttle body (ETB)), and (iii) a powertrain or engine control module (PCM or ECM). [4]

  6. Slider-crank linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slider-crank_linkage

    A slider-crank linkage is a four-link mechanism with three revolute joints and one prismatic (sliding) joint. [1] The rotation of the crank drives the linear movement of the slider, or the expansion of gases against a sliding piston in a cylinder can drive the rotation of the crank. There are two types of slider-cranks: in-line and offset.

  7. Dual pivot steering geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_pivot_steering_geometry

    Dual-pivot steering geometry (also known as virtual pivot) is a geometric arrangement of linkages in the steering of a car designed to reduce or eliminate scrub radius by moving the pivot point of the king pin outboard, in order to improve steering precision and straight line stability.

  8. Scott Russell linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Russell_linkage

    A Scott Russell linkage on the rear axle of a 2002 Nissan Sentra. The linkage is composed of two links. One link is double the size of the other, and is connected to the smaller link by its midpoint. One of the ends is then connected to something that can generate linear motion, such as a rolling or sliding connection, or another straight line ...

  9. Kinematic diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematic_diagram

    Dimensioned drawing of a slider-crank (left) and its kinematic diagram (right).. In mechanical engineering, a kinematic diagram or kinematic scheme (also called a joint map or skeleton diagram) illustrates the connectivity of links and joints of a mechanism or machine rather than the dimensions or shape of the parts.
