PIVOT JOINT STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18582660 titled 'PIVOT JOINT STRUCTURE
The abstract of the patent application describes a pivot joint structure with a pin hole, a pin, and a fixation holder. The pin includes a protrusion part that is inserted into a slit in the wall part of the fixation holder.
- Pin body inserted through first and second pin holes
- Protrusion part extends from axis center in first direction
- Fixation holder includes planar part with second pin hole and wall part
- Wall part has first slit in second direction with opening at one end
- Protrusion part inserted into first slit by rotation about rotation center
Potential Applications: - Mechanical engineering - Robotics - Automotive industry
Problems Solved: - Providing a secure pivot joint structure - Allowing for rotational movement in a controlled manner
Benefits: - Increased stability and durability - Precise control over movement
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Pivot Joint Structure for Enhanced Mechanical Systems This technology can be used in various mechanical systems, such as industrial machinery, robotic arms, and automotive components, to improve performance and reliability.
Questions about Pivot Joint Structure: 1. How does the protrusion part enhance the functionality of the pivot joint structure? The protrusion part provides stability and control over the rotational movement of the joint, ensuring precise operation. 2. What are the potential drawbacks of using this pivot joint structure in certain applications? Some potential drawbacks could include increased complexity in assembly and maintenance due to the unique design of the structure.
Original Abstract Submitted
A pivot joint structure includes a first pin hole, a second pin hole, and a pin including a pin body inserted through the first pin hole and the second pin hole. The pin includes a protrusion part extending from an axis center of the pin body in a first direction, the fixation holder includes a planar part where the second pin hole is provided and a wall part rising from the planar part in the axial direction of the pin body, the wall part includes a first slit extending in a second direction and having an opening at one end, and the protrusion part is inserted into the first slit by being rotated toward the first slit about a rotation center at the axis center of the pin body.
