In Britain, it means diddly. It means you're a male, presumably respectable. If you have no other title, then the overly-British will put esq. after your name on an envelope, etc. In America, I believe it's sometimes used after a lawyer's surname. However, I don't see it used much by U.S. lawyers.
This type was used on the Lifeboats of the RMS Titanic. Each arm must be rotated out manually; uses manila rope falls. Goose-neck shape to the arm that is swung out. Mechanical (obsolete) â This type is like the radial davit, but both arms are moved out at the same time using a screw system; uses manila rope falls.
A rocker arm is an oscillating lever that conveys radial movement from the cam lobe into linear movement at the poppet valve to open it. One end is raised and lowered by a rotating lobe of the camshaft while the other end acts on the valve stem. When the camshaft lobe raises the outside of the arm, the inside presses down on the valve stem, opening the valve. When the outside of the arm is permitted to return due to the camshafts rotation, the inside rises, allowing the valve spring to close the valve. Some overhead cam engines employ short rocker arms in which the cam lobe pushes down (rather than up) on the rocker arm to open the valve. On this type of rocker arm, the fulcrum is at the end rather than the middle, while the cam acts on the middle of the arm. The opposite end opens the valve.
