Abstract: A mechanism for compensating systematic uni-directional torque bias imposed on a bi-directional drive actuator shaft, comprising a pallet disposed on an arm for rotation with the actuator shaft. A bucket tappet is engaged by the pallet and contains a helical compression spring. As the actuator shaft rotates and compresses the spring, the load on the pallet increases linearly but the length of the lever arm changes non-linearly at a rate different from the force applied to the pallet. This results in a non-linear torque about the actuator shaft. The torque can be the same at the compression spring preload state as it is at the full load state or it can be biased to be unsymmetrical based on the layout and size of the components and the stroke of the actuator shaft.

Abstract translation: 用于补偿施加在双向驱动致动器轴上的系统性单向扭矩偏置的机构，包括设置在臂上的托盘，用于与致动器轴一起旋转。 铲斗挺杆由托盘接合并且包含螺旋压缩弹簧。 当致动器轴旋转并压缩弹簧时，托盘上的载荷线性增加，但是杆臂的长度以与施加到托盘的力不同的速率非线性地改变。 这导致关于致动器轴的非线性扭矩。 在处于满载状态的压缩弹簧预加载状态下，扭矩可以相同，或者可以基于部件的布局和尺寸以及致动器轴的行程将其偏置成不对称。
