摘要:
A suspension system for magnetically suspending an object (O) comprises an electromagnetic coil (L) having an axially extending core (13) of magnetically permeable material and a permanent magnet (14) disposed on its axis. A permanent magnet (10) is also provided in the object (O) and is arranged such that it is in attraction with the permanent magnet (14) on the coil (L), and with the magnetically permeable core (13) so that the object (O) is suspended at a position below the coil (L) by the attractive force. Sensors (15, 16) on the coil (L) detect the magnetic field of the permanent magnet (10) in the object (O), and provide signals to a control circuit, which applies current to the coil (L) to attract the object (O) when the detected field is below a predetermined limit and to repel the object when the detector field is above a predetermined limit. In this manner, the object (O) is held in position using a relatively low current, since the coil (L) is only energised when the object moves away from the position in which it is held by the field of the permanent magnets (10, 14).

A combined externally pressurized gas and magnetic bearing assembly (3) includes an externally pressurized gas bearing (9) and a magnetic bearing (8) that are integrated together so as to have component parts common to both of the externally pressurized gas bearing (9) and the magnetic bearing (8). The externally pressurized gas bearing (9) or the magnetic bearing (8) may be disposed within an axial extent of the magnetic bearing (8) or the externally pressurized gas bearing (9), respectively. A spindle device utilizing the combined externally pressurized gas and magnetic bearing assembly (3) is also provided which includes a housing for supporting a main shaft (4) rotatably through the combined externally pressurized gas and magnetic bearing assembly (3). This combined externally pressurized gas and magnetic bearing assembly (3) can be applied not only to the radial bearing, but also to the axial bearing.

In a magnetically mounted oscillation-damped flywheel, both the force generating systems (M1, M2) for the radial drive and transverse movement and the corresponding control sensors (SE1...SE4) are located in the wheel hub. Parasitic oscillations can thus be drastically attenuated without any adverse effect on the wheel's swivelling range.

A superconducting bearing device comprises an annular permanent magnet portion 2 disposed concentrically with a rotary body 1 in the form of a vertical shaft, and superconductors 8 opposed to the lower end face of the magnet portion 2 and vertically spaced apart therefrom. The permanent magnet portion 2 comprises a disk 4 fixedly mounted on the rotary body 1, and annular permanent magnets 6a, 6b arranged on the disk 4 at a spacing radially of the rotary body 1. Each of the magnets 6a, 6b has upper and lower ends magnetized to polarities opposite to each other, and the adjacent magnets 6a, 6b are magnetized to polarities opposite to each other at the upper ends, as well as at the lower ends. The radial spacing between the magnets 6a, 6b is optimized in accordance with the radial dimension (width) of the magnets 6a, 6b. This improves the device in load capacity and rigidity and prevents the deflection of axis of the rotary body 1, enabling the bearing device to support the rotary body 1 in a noncontact state with good stability.

A magnetic bearing system uses conductive loops which interact with magnets (26, 28, 29) to levitate a rotor (16-18) and to center on a rotational axis (A1). The rotor having a plurality of closed loops (22, 24) of finite inductance and finite conductivity material. In the preferred embodiment, each loop is subjected to two magnetic fields simultaneously and its magnets are equally subjected to the fields, thus producing equal and opposite magnetic forces so that no current will flow. However, when the loop deviates laterally from its prescribed path, the interior of the loop is subjected to unequal fields. Thus producing current to exert a force to move the loop back toward the path.

Un palier magnétique pour le centrage actif selon au moins un axe de centrage d'un second corps mobile par rapport à un premier corps comporte :
une première portion (11) comportant deux plaques ferromagnétiques parallèles (14), un premier noyau (15) entouré d'un premier bobinage (16) et des moyens (18) à aimantation permanente perpendiculaire auxdites plaques ferromagnétiques, une seconde portion (12) séparée des plaques ferromagnétiques de la première portion par une paire d'entrefers (19, 20) d'épaisseur variable parallèlement à l'axe de centrage.
Les moyens à aimantation permanente sont décalés par rapport au noyau selon une direction sensiblement parallèle à la paire d'entrefers, et les plaques ferromagnétiques sont munies d'encoches (22, 22' ...) disposées en regard des moyens à aimantation permanente et orientées transversalement à la paire d'entrefers.
