sliding contact

Then he saw more than felt his outstretched hand make sliding contact with the balloon fabric.

Turn the sliding contact of the potentiometer to approximately mid-position.

A difference to dynamic sliding contact problems is that there is more variety in the state of different surface particles.

In 2 places on the edges the disc was touched by objects that resembled nothing so much as sliding contacts.

These blocks maintained sliding contact with a gliding ring on the nacelle.

Burnishing is the plastic deformation of a surface due to sliding contact with another object.

In this design a large current is passed through a metal sabot across sliding contacts that are fed from two rails.

Galling is most commonly found in metal surfaces that are in sliding contact with each other.

However, the designer's problem of lubricating the swash plate face (a sliding contact) is made even more difficult.

The efficiency of direct current machines is limited by the "brush drop" due to the resistance of the sliding contact.

However, the practical construction of such arrangements requires the provision of reliable high speed sliding contacts.

An electrical circuit is formed by connecting sliding contacts: one to the axle of the disc, the other to its rim.

The rotor must thus be simple in design and there can also be no sliding contacts to sliprings or other brushgear.

In principle, coilguns can also be constructed in which the moving coils are fed with current via sliding contacts.

They were connected by an electrically conductive metal filament and a sliding contact in a capillary tube.

Spherical particles interact through frictional sliding contacts.

Switch contacts are generally subjected to more intense corrosion stress than are sliding contacts.

At the points where the rotor touches the stator, the surfaces are generally traveling transversely, so small areas of sliding contact occur.

The card slipped out of its slot with no difficulty; it did not jam, and none of the dozens of sliding contacts stuck.

Because of the large area of sliding contact between the moving and stationary threads, screws typically have large frictional energy losses.

The motor-operated pen is arranged to move the sliding contact of a potentiometer to feed back the pen position to an error amplifier.

I got up a slot contact for street railways, and have a patent on it--a sliding contact in a slot.

These gliding pads come in sliding contact with a steel disk, which is usually equipped with gear teeth to form a gliding-disk/gear-rim.

In an effort to minimize the number of non-printed components (or "vitamins"), Darwin uses printed sliding contact bearings on all of its axes.
