    摘要: A stirring component includes a body arranged in an internal chamber at a side of a circular spline away from a flex spline of the harmonic transmission system. The body includes a coupling hole through which the body is coupled to and rotated with an input shaft of the harmonic transmission system, and at least one stirring recess arranged on a side of the body adjacent to the circular spline and has a varying depth in an axial direction to stir and push lubricant medium within the internal chamber towards the flex spline during rotation of the body. With the stirring component arranged within the internal chamber, the plate-shaped body can block the lubricant medium from moving further. Furthermore, the stirring component can stir and push the lubricant medium away from the body towards the flex spline.

    摘要: A method for protecting the integrity of measurement data acquired by a sensor includes: in response to the measurement data being acquired, determining, by the sensor, whether an aggregate value has already been generated, and: if the aggregate value has not yet been obtained, mapping, by a predetermined aggregation function that takes the measurement data as a mandatory argument and a previously generated aggregate value as an optional argument, the measurement data to the aggregate value; whereas if the aggregate value has already been obtained, mapping, by the predetermined aggregation function, the combination of the aggregate value and the measurement data to a new aggregate value; and in response to a predetermined condition being met, computing, using a secret key of the sensor, a signature of the aggregate value; and outputting the signature via a communication interface of the sensor, and/or storing the signature in a memory.

    摘要: A power converter system includes an auxiliary resonant commutated pole converter leg, particularly an ARCP half-bridge, having a series connection of a saturable-core inductor and at least one bi-directional auxiliary switch connected to a dc-link neutral point. An ARCP controller is provided to control turn-on of the at least one bi-directional auxiliary switch to provide an auxiliary current flowing through the saturable-core inductor, and a saturation instant detector is provided to detect a saturation instant of the saturable-core inductor due to the auxiliary current exceeding a saturation current after turn-on of the at least one bidirectional auxiliary switch. The ARCP controller is responsive the detector to continue providing the auxiliary current and thereby a boost current for a predetermined boost period after the detected saturation instant of the saturable-core inductor to achieve a desired total boost current.
