Of course there was much confusion and lost motion at first, but eventually Ja got them in hand, detailing squads of them under competent chiefs to certain work.

The grader's weight determined how big a tractor or how many animals were needed to move as much material efficiently with the least amount of lost motion from the blade.

Pull-type graders smoothed the way

They do not permit the user to fully flex or extend the elbow, they do not prevent lost motion between the bones of the remaining limb and the distal prosthetic structure during active lifting, and they do not load the bone uniformly but rather concentrate the load near the ends.

Prosthetic sockets stabilized by alternating areas of tissue compression and release

The defective lost motion springs, which are compressed by rocker arms in normal engine use, may bend or break over time, resulting in abnormal engine noise and potentially causing engine stalling and problems in re- starting," a company statement said.

According to reports, in a statement, HSCI said it would carry out preventive part replacement of the lost motion spring in the valve train of the City sedans being recalled.

The phenomena may be bearing frictions, impacts, shocks within drive mechanisms and drive motors, lost motion inside gears, inaccurate alignments, unbalances, variable pressure determined by combustion processes, variable forces caused by machine's operating error, flow forces of fluids, too high tolerances.

Causes of vibrations occurrence during operation of industrial machinery

The quality of materials and manufacturing are the best ways to eliminate backlash--the free-play that leads to lost motion.

Acting screwy: ball screws continue to be the drive of choice when the loads are high and variable

It might be said that so far the cylinder has only taken up the lost motion or backlash in the system.

The designs eliminate backlash between the screw and the nut and also maximize system stiffness and minimize lost motion.

The papers are organized into sections on engine cycles with variable valve actuation, cam phasing systems, profile switching and lost motion systems, cylinder deactivation, mechanical variable valvetrain systems, and camless valve actuation.
