  2. Speedloader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedloader

    An 1858 New Model Army black-powder cap-and-ball revolver replica. The cylinder has been removed from the frame. The modern revolver circular speedloader holds a full cylinder complement of cartridges in a secure fashion, spaced in a circular configuration so as to allow the cartridges to drop simultaneously into the cylinder easily (although non-circular types such as half moon clips are very ...

  3. Electronically controlled unit injector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronically_controlled...

    Injection phase Partway through the pump stroke, the solenoid is energized, which closes the spill valve. The fuel is forced into the cylinder through the spray tip. Pressure reduction phase Toward the end of the pump stroke, the spill valve is re-opened, allowing the fuel to recirculate again and ending the injection phase.

  4. Low-speed pre-ignition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-Speed_Pre-Ignition

    Low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI), also known as stochastic pre-ignition (SPI), [1] is a pre-ignition event that occurs in gasoline vehicle engines when there is a premature ignition of the main fuel charge. [2] LSPI is most common in certain turbocharged direct-injection vehicles operating in low-speed and high-load driving conditions. [3]

  5. Nitrous oxide engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrous_oxide_engine

    Nitrous injection systems may be "dry", where the nitrous oxide is injected separately from fuel, or "wet" in which additional fuel is carried into the engine along with the nitrous. NOS may not be permitted for street or highway use, depending on local regulations. N 2 O use is permitted in certain classes of auto racing. Reliable operation of ...

  6. LHD (load, haul, dump machine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LHD_(Load,_Haul,_Dump_machine)

    The speed of the vehicle is controlled mechanically. The transmission is controlled by a hydrostatic drive; in hydrostatic transmission, the motor drives a variable displacement pump hydraulically connected to a hydro-motor driving the axle via a gearbox. The speed is controlled by changing the displacement volume of the axial pump.

  7. Mercedes-Benz M110 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_M110_engine

    The M110.981 uses Bosch D-Jetronic injection. This system senses the ambient temperature, engine temperature, intake manifold underpressure and throttle valve position and calculates with an analog computer how many milliseconds the fuel injectors should stay open per revolution. The .991 is the low-compression version of the .981.

  8. JCB HMEE - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JCB_HMEE

    The HMEE is an armoured backhoe loader designed for high speeds in order to self-deploy with military convoys. Most backhoes are limited to much lower speeds. [7] It is also capable of towing heavy loads and has good off-road mobility. It is based on technology from the JCB Fastrac tractors. [8] The programme started in 2003.

  9. Retarder (mechanical engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retarder_(mechanical...

    Exhaust brakes are simpler in operation than an engine brake.Essentially, the exhaust pipe of the vehicle is restricted by a valve.This raises the pressure in the exhaust system, forcing the engine to work harder on the exhaust stroke of its cylinders, so again the engine is acting as an air compressor, with the power required to compress the air being withheld from the exhaust pipe, retarding ...
