    摘要: A method and a system for reducing mechanical disturbances from energy storage flywheels (32) in an electrically-powered vehicle are provided. The system includes at least two counter-rotating energy storage flywheels (32) arranged on the vehicle; vehicle dynamics, control, and sensors for sensing a disturbance to the vehicle and providing an output indicative of the disturbance. The system also provides for adjustably controlling an attitude of the vehicle in response to the output of the sensors and to counteract disturbances resulting from the at least two counter-rotating energy storage flywheels (32). A method for reducing mechanical disturbances from energy storage flywheels arranged in an electrically powered vehicle is also provided. The method has the steps of: sensing a torque on the vehicle to provide a torque measurement; processing the torque measurement to produce a control signal based upon the sensed torque; and modifying a relative speed or orientation of the energy storage flywheels by using the control signal to reduce a net torque produced by the flywheels. A flywheel-powered electric vehicle system is also provided. The system includes an electrical power subsystem arranged on a vehicle structure; a pair of counter-rotating energy storage flywheels (32) mounted to a flywheel mounting plate, the pair of flywheels connected to the electrical power subsystem. Torque sensors are arranged between the flywheel mounting plate and the vehicle structure for sensing a net torque on the vehicle resulting from the pair of flywheels and generating a torque signal indicative thereof. A vehicle attitude sensor is arranged on the vehicle structure to produce an attitude signal. A vehicle attitude actuator and electronic processing equipment are arranged on the vehicle structure and connected to the pair of counter-rotating energy storage flywheels (32), the torque sensors, the vehicle attitude sensor, the vehicle attitude actuator, and the electrical power subsystem. The electronic processing equipment processes the attitude signal and the torque signal to provide a control signal to the vehicle attitude actuator for reducing the net torque on the vehicle.

    摘要: Selon l'invention, on utilise un mécanisme à mouvement dit de Genève (3) entraîné en rotation (f) dans un sens ou un autre par un moteur électrique (8). Ce mécanisme (3) comprend une croix dite de Malte (31) tournant autour de l'axe de rotation (Δ) du rotor (6) et supportant une pièce annulaire (5). La croix de Malte (31) est couplée mécaniquement à une vis à billes (4) coaxiale à cet axe de rotation (Δ), de manière à transformer le mouvement de rotation (f) en un mouvement comprenant une composante linéaire (f'), permettant de rapprocher ou d'éloigner à volonté la pièce annulaire (5) de manière à obtenir un contact avec le rotor (6), puis un auto-blocage blocage contre une paroi fixe (70), ou au contraire sa libération par une translation en sens inverse de la pièce annulaire (5).

    摘要: A satellite power distribution method for efficiently distributing power to satellite electric propulsion thrusters (24) is provided. The satellite includes spacecraft loads (20), an electric propulsion thruster (24), thruster auxiliary circuits (22), and a first power transformer (30). The first power transformer (30) has a primary winding (32) coupled to a first energy source (12) that supplies satellite power. A first secondary winding (36) of the first power transformer (30) is coupled to the spacecraft loads (20) for supplying primary power. The power distribution method includes the steps of first coupling a second secondary winding (34) to the first power transformer (30) for converting the satellite power to thruster discharge power which is rectified. The rectified discharge power is filtered to obtain power that is supplied to the electric propulsion thruster (24). Finally, satellite power is converted to auxiliary power for powering the thruster auxiliary circuits (22).
