摘要:
A high speed aircraft generator utilizes a resistor bobbin to constrain field leads from radial displacement during operation of the generator. The resistor bobbin is provided with passages through which the field leads are passed. The passages are parallel to an axis of the generator. The resistor bobbin thus serves two purposes in the generator; its normal function of supporting a resistor coil and a second function of constraining field leads. The field leads have a round cross-sectional configuration. The field leads are attached to flat conductors of a field coil with a unique brazing clip.

A generator may incorporate a positively restrained balance ring. A generator may include a rotor core including a rotor, and a balance ring. The balance ring may include a weight. The balancer may include a plurality of balance holes in the ring, at least one of the plurality of balance holes to receive a weighted insert. A method of balancing a rotor of a generator may include mounting a balance ring adjacent to a rotor core, and adjusting weights to be located at one or more of a plurality of positions equally spaced around the balance ring to balance the rotor.

A high speed generator cooling system directs a cooling oil spray through a chamber inside a coil support wedge assembly, which may be disposed adjacent to the generator coils. Heat from the generator coils may be conducted through the walls of the coil support wedge assembly and into the chamber where it is removed by the cooling oil spray passing through the chamber. The cooling oil passes through a generator rotor shaft and into a cooling passage in least one of the rotor laminations.

An outflow valve includes a valve closure mechanism that automatically closes the outflow valve in the unlikely event the outflow valve actuator becomes inoperable. The valve closure mechanism includes a pulley, a load plate, a cable, and a spring. The pulley is coupled to a valve element is the outflow valve and is configured to eccentrically rotate therewith. The cable has a first end coupled to the pulley, and a second end coupled to the load plate. The spring is disposed between the valve and the load plate and surrounds a portion of the cable. The spring is configured to supply a bias force, via the load plate and the cable, to the pulley that biases the valve element toward the closed position.

A rotor for a high speed generator is constructed of a plurality of laminations and interlamination disks, which are disposed between each of the laminations. A coil support assembly is disposed within each of the rotor interpole regions and is secured to the interlamination disks.

A relatively compact, lightweight outflow valve assembly includes suitable redundancy features that allow the valve assembly to meet regulatory requirements for certain postulated single point failures. The valve assembly includes a valve body that is constructed at least partially of a non-metallic material and has an outer surface and an inner surface that defines a flow passage having at least two flow ports. A sleeve is disposed within the valve body flow passage that is constructed at least partially of a metallic material. The sleeve has a flow passage formed therein that is in fluid communication with the valve body flow passage flow ports. A valve element is disposed within the sleeve flow passage and is moveable between at least an open position and a closed position. A plurality of brackets is mounted on the valve body outer surface and is coupled to the sleeve. When the valve assembly is installed in an aircraft, the plurality of brackets further couples the sleeve to the aircraft fuselage.
摘要:
A wedge-shaped member to restrain coil windings of a generator rotor from moving under centrifugal force. The wedge-shaped, substantially hollow member including a first plate, a second plate positioned opposite the first plate and positioned at an angle relative to the first plate, and one or more reinforcing members coupled between the first plate and the second plate. The wedge-shaped member is configured to fit between the core poles of a generator. A plurality of holes in the first and/or second plates permit a bonding material to adhere to adjacent coil windings and spread through the holes.
摘要:
A lubricating and cooling system for a high speed generator that directs a lubricating and cooling medium through the generator housing. The lubricating and cooling medium may be supplied to the generator on either end of the housing. A portion of the medium is supplied to the generator bearings. The remaining portion then flows through the rotor shaft, through the rotor, back to the shaft, where a portion may be sprayed onto the rectifier assemblies, then passed through the stator, and out of the generator.
