  2. Terraria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terraria

    Terraria is a 2D sandbox game with gameplay that revolves around exploration, building, crafting, combat, survival, and mining, playable in both single-player and multiplayer modes. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The game has a 2D sprite tile-based graphical style reminiscent of the 16-bit sprites found on the Super NES . [ 4 ]

  3. Telescopic cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_cylinder

    Single acting telescopic cylinders are the simplest and most common design. As with a single acting rod style cylinder, the single acting telescopic cylinder is extended using hydraulic or pneumatic pressure but retracts using external forces when the fluid medium is removed and relieved to the reservoir. This external retraction force is ...

  4. Control rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_rod

    Control rod assembly for a pressurized water reactor, above fuel element Control rods are used in nuclear reactors to control the rate of fission of the nuclear fuel – uranium or plutonium . Their compositions include chemical elements such as boron , cadmium , silver , hafnium , or indium , that are capable of absorbing many neutrons without ...

  5. Parking pawl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_pawl

    The main components of a parking pawl mechanism are the parking gear, parking pawl, actuator rod, cam collar, cam plate, pivot pin, and parking pawl return spring. The mechanism assembly is designed so that the parking pawl tooth collides and overrides the parking gear teeth (ratchets) until a safe engagement speed for the vehicle is reached.

  6. Rotary actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_actuator

    A rotary actuator is an actuator that produces a rotary motion or torque. The simplest actuator is purely mechanical, where linear motion in one direction gives rise to rotation. The most common actuators are electrically powered; others may be powered pneumatically or hydraulically , or use energy stored in springs .

  7. Actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actuator

    An actuator is a component of a machine that produces force, torque, or displacement, when an electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic input is supplied to it in a system (called an actuating system). The effect is usually produced in a controlled way. [1] An actuator translates such an input signal into the required form of mechanical energy.

  8. Rigid chain actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_chain_actuator

    Rigid chain actuators function as rack and pinion linear actuators that use articulated racks. Rigid chain actuators use limited-articulation chains, usually resembling a roller chain, that engage with pinions mounted on a drive shaft within a housing. The links of the actuating member, the “rigid chain”, are articulated in a manner that ...

  9. Position-sensing hydraulic cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position-sensing_hydraulic...

    External linear displacement transducers (LDTs) eliminate the need for a hollow hydraulic cylinder rod. Instead, an external sensing “bar” utilizing Hall-Effect technology senses the position of the hydraulic cylinder piston.
