摘要:
The present invention provides a variable reluctance actuator system and method that can be adapted for simultaneous rotation and translation of a moving element by applying a normal-direction magnetic flux on the moving element. In a beneficial example arrangement, the moving element includes a swing arm that carries a cutting tool at a set radius from an axis of rotation so as to produce a rotary fast tool servo that provides a tool motion in a direction substantially parallel to the surface-normal of a workpiece at the point of contact between the cutting tool and workpiece. An actuator rotates a swing arm such that a cutting tool moves toward and away from a mounted rotating workpiece in a controlled manner in order to machine the workpiece. Position sensors provide rotation and displacement information for a swing arm to a control system. A control system commands and coordinates motion of the fast tool servo with the motion of a spindle, rotating table, cross-feed slide, and in feed slide of a precision lathe.

The speaker system consists of a single housing containing a tweeter, mid-range and woofer transducer units. The tweeter unit consists of an elongated, aluminum ribbon positioned vertically and connected to the top and bottom of a rigid elongated frame. The ribbon is located between sets of split magnets which are designed to provide a shaped magnetic field that helps center the ribbon in a direction perpendicular to its length. Additional electromagnetic centering is provided by flat ribbon conductors located on the surfaces of the magnets sets which return the current carried by the ribbon. The mid-range transducer is similar to the tweeter transducer in construction except that the edges of the mid-range ribbon are mechanically attached to the frame by foam strips. In addition, the mid-range ribbon is transversely corrugated at variable slant angles relative to ribbon longitudinal axis. The woofer transducer consists of an elongated, trapezoidal, corrugated aluminum ribbon attached to a non-vibrating frame. In order to provide a single electrical path, the ribbon is divided into a serpentine path by a series of cuts. To prevent undesirable auto effects, the ribbon is tensioned in a transverse direction.
摘要:
An electronic motor that accepts single-phase power and converts the same to polyphase power which is delivered to a polyphase winding of the machine. The electronic motor includes an electronic synthesizer. The synthesizer is shown in the context of an electronic motor, but in a wider context as well.
摘要:
A superconducting machine wherein the field winding and associated elements in the cold region of the machine are protected against transients by a flexible, electrically conductive outer shield means that interacts with an inner conductive shell in a way that causes the magnetic field to be compressed between the shield and the shell, thereby to transmit mechanical radial forces between the two.

A high bandwidth rotary fast tool servo provides tool motion in a direction nominally parallel to the surface-normal of a workpiece at the point of contact between the cutting tool and workpiece. Three or more flexure blades having all ends fixed are used to form an axis of rotation for a swing arm that carries a cutting tool at a set radius from the axis of rotation. An actuator rotates a swing arm assembly such that a cutting tool is moved in and away from the lathe-mounted, rotating workpiece in a rapid and controlled manner in order to machine the workpiece. One or more position sensors provides rotation and position information for a swing arm to a control system. A control system commands and coordinates motion of the fast tool servo with the motion of a spindle, rotating table, cross-feed slide, and in-feed slide of a precision lathe.
