    摘要: A gyroscopic boat roll stabilizer for a boat comprises a gimbal, having a gimbal axis, an enclosure mounted to the gimbal and configured to precess about a gimbal axis, a flywheel assembly rotatably mounted inside the enclosure for generating a torque that is applied to counter a rolling motion of the boat, and a braking system for controlling precession of the enclosure.

    摘要: A gyroscopic roll stabilizer includes an enclosure, a flywheel assembly, a bearing, a motor, and a bearing cooling circuit. The enclosure is mounted to a gimbal for rotation about a gimbal axis and configured to maintain a below-ambient pressure. The flywheel assembly includes a flywheel and flywheel shaft. The bearing rotatably mounts the flywheel assembly inside the enclosure for rotation about a flywheel axis. The bearing has an inner race and an outer race. The inner race is affixed to the flywheel shaft, and the outer race is held rotationally fixed relative to the enclosure. The motor is operative to rotate the flywheel assembly. The bearing cooling circuit is configured to transfer heat away from the bearing by recirculating cooling fluid along a closed fluid pathway. The gyroscopic roll stabilizer is configured to transfer heat away from the inner and/or outer race of the bearing to the cooling fluid.

    摘要: An anti-roll stabilizer device for boats includes a container adapted to be mounted on a suspension so as to oscillate around a first axis; a mass rotatably supported inside the container so as to form a rotor that rotates around a second axis transverse to the first axis; and a rotor cooling system having a hollow shaft arranged along the second axis, a first and a second cooling chamber sealed from the container of the rotor and from the outside, arranged at the ends of the hollow shaft and communicating through the hollow shaft, the first chamber having an inlet and the second chamber an outlet that are connected to a forced circulation circuit of the cooling fluid so that the cooling fluid can circulate from the first chamber to the second chamber through the hollow shaft and from the second chamber to the first chamber through the circulation circuit.

    摘要: A stabilizer (10) includes a base (20) fixed on a motion reduction target (1); a gimbal (40) supported by the base to be rotatable around a first axis (RA); a damper mechanism (30) disposed to damp a relative rotary motion of the gimbal (40) to the base (20); a flywheel (50) disposed to be rotatable around a second axis (RB) orthogonal to the first axis (RA). The damper mechanism (30) is a passive-type damper mechanism. A first value (D1) of a damping coefficient (D) of the damper mechanism (30) when an angular velocity of the gimbal (40) is a first angular velocity is larger than a second value (D2) of the damping coefficient (D) of the damper mechanism (30) when the angular velocity of the gimbal (40) is a second angular velocity smaller than the first angular velocity.

    摘要: A gyroscopic roll stabilizing device for a marine vehicle includes a base communicating with a gyroscopic component which includes a rotor rotatable about an axis, a motor for rotating the rotor about the axis, a swing container swinging about a swing axis and having the rotor communicating thereto, a first support member and a second support member being opposite to the first support member for swingingly supporting the swing container. An actuating member rotates the gyroscopic component about an axis around which the rotor does not swing in its free state.
