What is a Rigid Connecting Link?

A Rigid Connecting Link (CONNECTING LINK,RIGID) is an item of various cross-sectional shapes which may be of solid or hollow construction. It is specifically designed for attachment to a lever(s) and/or control(s) to actuate various remote mechanisms. It is one of the following: (1) A one-piece item with or without eyes and/or holes in each end which may have bushings or bearings pressed in the eyes; (2) A one-piece item with both ends processed for terminations, excluding threaded end(s); (3) A two-piece construction type item consisting of a body with both ends processed for terminations and a single end attachment; or (4) A three-piece construction type item consisting of a body and two end attachments. Excludes internal combustion engine type piston connecting rods; DRAG LINK, STEERING; LINK, ANCHOR, BRAKE SHOE; TIE ROD, STEERING; and TURNBUCKLE. For cylindrical shaped externally threaded items without end attachments, see ROD, THREADED END and STUD (as modified).

A Pawl is a catching device of various shapes and cross sections, which permits motion in only one direction. Designed to engage the teeth or notches of a sector, quadrant, ratchet wheel, or the like. Item is so pivoted that the angle of approach to the interdental engagement causes it to rest more firmly as the reverse load is increased. Item may be spring actuated to cause engagement. Excludes CAM (as modified).

What is a Linear Actuating Cylinder Assembly?

A Linear Actuating Cylinder Assembly (CYLINDER ASSEMBLY,ACTUATING,LINEAR) is a cylinder containing a piston and other component parts designed to develop linear motion required to operate a given object(s) with energy generated from either pneumatic or hydraulic pressure(s). See also CYLINDER, ACTUATING, LINEAR. Do not use if a more specific name applies.

What is a Straight Axle?

A Straight Axle (AXLE,STRAIGHT) is a straight axle having two or more of the following conditions: a specified surface finish designation in the range of 1 to 125 microinches (0.025 to 3.2 micrometers), arithmetical average (aa), machined peripheral flat(s), circular groove(s), keyway(s), splines, threads, or holes. It is not designed for use in aliging by fitting into corresponding holes of another item. It may be drilled for lubricating holes. For items having an integral gear(s) or worm(s), see GEARSHAFT (as modified). For items not having the above conditions see PIN, STRAIGHT, HEADLESS. For items used to transmit motion see SHAFT, STRAIGHT. For items having machined ends which constitute steps see AXLE(1), SHOLDERED. Excludes SHAFT(1), SHOULDERED; and BOLT, FLUID PASSAGE.

What is a Shouldered Axle?

A Shouldered Axle (AXLE,SHOULDERED) is an axle having two or more different diameters (greater than 0.031 inches (0.79 millimeter)) along its length. It must have one or more of the following conditions: a specified surface finish designation in the range 1 to 125 microinches (0.025 to 3.2 micrometers), periphersl flat(s), circular groove(s), keyway(s), splines, threads, or holes. The ends and/or sholders may be machined to accommodate bearings couplings and the like. It is not designed for use in aligning by fitting into corresponding holes of another item. For items used to transmit motion see SHAFT(1), SHOULDER. For items not having any of the above conditions see PIN, SHOULDER, HEADLESS. Excludes SHAFT(1),STRAIGHT; and AXLE(1), STRAIGHT.

NATO Supply Class 3040 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 30, which is dedicated to Mechanical Power Transmission Equipment. Specifically, Class 3040 focuses on Miscellaneous Power Transmission Equipment.

Miscellaneous Power Transmission Equipment refers to a wide range of components and devices used in mechanical power transmission systems. These components are responsible for transmitting power from a power source to various machinery and equipment.

Examples of items that fall under NATO Supply Class 3040 include:

1. Gears: These are toothed wheels that mesh with each other to transmit power and motion between rotating shafts.

2. Pulleys: Pulleys are used to change the direction or speed of a rotating shaft by means of a belt or chain.

3. Sprockets: Similar to pulleys, sprockets are toothed wheels that engage with a chain or a toothed belt to transmit power.

4. Clutches: Clutches are used to engage or disengage power transmission between two rotating shafts.

5. Couplings: Couplings are used to connect two shafts together, allowing for the transmission of power and motion.

6. Bearings: Bearings are used to support and reduce friction between moving parts in a power transmission system.

7. Shafts: Shafts are the rotating elements that transmit power from the power source to the driven machinery.

8. Housings and Casings: These are protective enclosures that house and protect the various components of a power transmission system.

NATO Supply Class 3040 encompasses a wide range of miscellaneous power transmission equipment, ensuring that all necessary components for efficient power transmission are included.
