Abstract:
A three-phase/two-phase rotary transformer including a three-phase portion and a two-phase portion that are movable in rotation relative to each other about an axis A. The three-phase portion includes a first body made of ferromagnetic material and three-phase coils, the two-phase portion including a second body made of ferromagnetic material and two-phase coils. The second body defines a first annular slot of axis A and a second annular slot of axis A, the two-phase coils including a first toroidal coil of axis A in the first slot, a second toroidal coil of axis A in the first slot, a third toroidal coil of axis A in the second slot, and a fourth toroidal coil of axis A in the second slot, the first coil and the fourth coil being connected in series, the second coil and the third coil being connected in series.
Abstract:
An adaptor (44, 70) mating a non-plug-in type circuit breaker (42) to a bus structure (14, 64) of a plug-in breaker panel (40, 62) includes a first portion (48, 72) coupled to a terminal (46) of the non-plug-in type circuit breaker (42) and an opposite second portion (50, 74) engaging a portion (24, 66) of the bus structure (14, 64). The first portion is formed from a first conductive material and the opposite second portion is formed from a second conductive material. The firs portion and the second portion form a conductive pathway between the terminal (46) of the non-plug-in type circuit breaker (42) and the portion (24, 66) of the bus structure (14).
Abstract:
The machine is designed to produce pleated developable herring bone structures, such as used as filter elements in the motor industry. The machine includes first means for scoring longitudinal fold lines on a band transversely spaced by the width of half-chevron and for initiating folds about these lines to obtain the chevron pattern, second means for producing transverse folding lines to form the folds half-fold by half-fold and accentuate the chevrons on each half-fold, third means for imparting the final shape to the chevrons and formed by convergent differentially moving rakes directed substantially longitudinally, and fourth means for moving the fashioned structures out of the machine. The starting material comprises two tapes initially wound on respective reels and, as these two tapes pass through the machine, there is interposed therein an endless supporting tape. A novel electrical control arrangement is provided whereby the machine may be operated in automatically repeated cycles, cycle by cycle, or operation by operation.
Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments aim to improve upon existing multi stage generators for providing power to a load. In particular, embodiments of the invention include a regulator situated between the output of a pilot exciter and the main exciter of a multi stage generator system, the regulator arranged to limit the voltage available to a field current control element which sets the field current supplied to the main exciter.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an assistance device (17) for an electrical power generation system (11) of an aircraft, said system (11) comprising a generator (13), a regulator (14) and a contactor (15) comprising contacts and an actuator for opening/closing the contacts which is controlled by said regulator (14) and arranged between the generator (13) and a distribution architecture (12), the assistance device being characterized in that it is connected to at least one power source (18) which is separate from the generator (13) and the regulator (14), and in that it comprises means for closing the contactor which are suitable for connecting the power source (18) to the actuator (23) of the contactor (15) in order to provide the current necessary for closing said contactor (15).
