A Buckling Flexure-Based Force-Limiting Mechanism
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A force-limiting buckling flexure has been created which can be used in a wide range of applications where excessive force from an implement can cause harm or damage. The buckling flexure is monolithic, contains no ...
A Two-Pressure Humidity Generator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A device for precisely humidifying a process gas is presented, with particular application to document preservation. The machine is designed to minimize the risk of damage from overpressure by ...
Constraint-Based Design of Parallel Kinematic XY Flexure Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents parallel kinematic XY flexure mechanism designs based on systematic constraint patterns that allow large ranges of motion without causing over-constraint or significant error ...
Design of Novel Catheter Insertion Device
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Poor positioning of needles and catheters may result in repeated attempts at correct placement, injury to adjacent structures or infusions into inappropriate spaces. Existing catheter insertion ...
