  2. Torsion box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_box

    A torsion box consists of two thin layers of material (skins) on either side of a lightweight core, usually a grid of beams. It is designed to resist torsion under an applied load. A hollow core door is probably the most common example of a torsion box (stressed skin) structure. The principle is to use less material more efficiently.

  3. Torsion constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_constant

    The torsion constant or torsion coefficient is a geometrical property of a bar's cross-section. It is involved in the relationship between angle of twist and applied torque along the axis of the bar, for a homogeneous linear elastic bar. The torsion constant, together with material properties and length, describes a bar's torsional stiffness.

    The old Britannia Bridge with train track inside the box-girder tunnel Section of the original tubular Britannia Bridge The patent curved and tapered box girder jib of a Fairbairn steam crane. A box girder or tubular girder (or box beam) is a girder that forms an enclosed tube with multiple walls, as opposed to an Ɪ-or H-beam.

    An axlebox, also known as a journal box in North America, is the mechanical subassembly on each end of the axles under a railway wagon, coach or locomotive; it contains bearings and thus transfers the wagon, coach or locomotive weight to the wheels and rails; the bearing design is typically oil-bathed plain bearings on older rolling stock, or roller bearings on newer rolling stock.

  6. Cavendish experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavendish_experiment

    Cavendish's diagram of his torsion pendulum, seen from above. The pendulum consists of two small spherical lead weights (h, h) hanging from a 6-foot horizontal wooden beam supported in the center by a fine torsion wire. The beam is protected from air currents inside a wooden box (A, A, A, A).

  7. Ready-to-assemble furniture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready-to-assemble_furniture

    A furniture assembly service industry has developed, making it easy for consumers to employ someone knowledgeable to assemble their furniture for them. [ 1 ] Produced mainly from particle board or medium-density fibreboard (MDF), the cost of producing this type of furniture is cheaper than using solid wood.

  8. Snap-fit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snap-fit

    A snap-fit is an assembly method used to attach flexible parts, usually plastic, to form the final product by pushing the parts' interlocking components together. [1] There are a number of variations in snap-fits, including cantilever, torsional and annular.

  9. Gear housing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_housing

    A split housing is like a walnut shell, the housing is divided in two parts, with a lower part that ties down the Gear Box to the structure, supports all the components during the assembly stage and holds the lubrication oil; and the upper part that completes the enclosure and provides mechanical integrity to the housing. The upper and lower ...
