| 20120195003 | Rotating Rectifier - A rectifier comprising an electrically conductive support 32, a first plurality of rectifier components 24 carried by the support 32 and having their anodes connected to a first bus bar 26, a second plurality of rectifier components 28 carried by the support 32 and having their cathodes connected to a second bus bar 30, the cathode of each of the first rectifier components 24 being connected to the anode of an associated one of the second rectifier components 28, and first and second resistance paths 40, 42 between the first and second bus bars 26. 30 and the support 32. | 08-02-2012 |
| 20120134612 | BEARING ENCLOSURE WITH INTEGRATED WEAR DETECTION - An electro-mechanical fuse integrated into the enclosure of a bearing assembly of a generator or like component. Under normal operation, the electro-mechanical fuse provides continuity through a bearing sensing circuit. However, ball cage damage causes the fuse to open and, in turn, the bearing sensing circuit indicates bearing wear. Thus, damage to other generator components is greatly reduced because the generator is removed for maintenance in a timely manner. | 05-31-2012 |
| 20120091851 | Rotary Electric Machine - A rotary electric machine comprises a rotor rotatable within a stator assembly, the stator assembly comprising a stator body defining a plurality of stator slots accommodating electrical conductors, a slot liner being provided within each slot to provide electrical insulation between the stator body and the electrical conductors, wherein each slot liner protrudes from an end of the stator slot and carries an armour element to protect the slot liner and associated conductors from erosion whilst permitting efficient cooling. | 04-19-2012 |
| 20120001522 | Motor - A motor comprising a motor housing, a stator located within the motor housing, a rotor supported for rotation within the motor housing upon a rotor shaft, the rotor shaft being supported for rotation by bearings, and a sealing sleeve, wherein the sealing sleeve is of closed ended form and encircles the rotor, the sealing sleeve being sealed adjacent its open end to the motor housing. | 01-05-2012 |
| 20110215669 | Rotor Assembly - A rotor assembly comprises a rotor body defining a pole, a winding encircling the pole, a compression member located radially inwards of the winding, and compression means located between the compression member and the rotor body and operable to urge the compression member in an outward direction to apply a compressive load to the winding. A method of assembly of the rotor is also disclosed. | 09-08-2011 |
| 20100288364 | Metering Valve Arrangement - A method is described for controlling the operation of a metering valve driven by a stepper motor, a position sensor normally providing position information to allow control over the metering valve in a closed loop manner. The method comprises the steps of:
