<p>1300219 Measuring angular displacement and rate electrically SPERRY RAND CORP 25 March 1970 [14 April 1969] 14539/70 Heading G1N Apparatus for deterining magnitude and rate of angular displacement comprises a core 13, 15 including a permanent magnet 14 a winding 34 on the core and energized from an A.C. supply to produce an alternating flux field co-extensive with the unidirectional field from the magnet, and a pivotable armature 38 including a pick-up coil (28) Fig. 3 (not shown) which is movable along an arcuate air-gap 23 whereby a signal indicative of its displacement are induced in it, which signal has an alternating component of phase sense and amplitude proportional to the direction and magnitude of the displacement and a direct current component of polarity and amplitude corresponding to the direction and magnitude of rate of change of displacement. The displacement is produced either by a mechanical connection to the armature of a movable member or, as described to measure pitch or roll of an aircraft, by displacement of the armature by a further winding (27) engergized by a D.C. signal from a flight director computer 12. The armature windings are disposed sideby-side on a frame 24 pivoted at 21 with an indicator pointer 10. The windings are energized from a driver amplifier 42 with feedback signals from displacement and rate detector circuits 44, 45 respectively. Signals in excess of a predetermined threshold actuate an alarm flag 55, which is also responsive to an open circuit between the driver amplifier and the computer or to failure of the computer.</p> |
