EDDY CURRENT BRAKING DEVICE FOR ROTARY SYSTEMS |
摘要 |
An apparatus has a first portion of a magnetic braking system with a first element disposed thereon. The first portion rotates about an axis. The position of the first element is a fixed distance from the axis. A second portion of the magnetic braking system has a second element disposed thereon. A spring biases the rotatable first portion a first distance from the second portion. Upon application of a force to one of the portions, the relative position of the rotatable first portion to the second portion is reduced to a second distance less than the first distance. |

1. An apparatus comprising:
a rotatable first portion of a magnetic braking system having a first element disposed thereon, wherein the first portion is rotatable about a rotatable first axis, and wherein a position of the first element is disposed a fixed distance from the rotatable first axis; a second portion of the magnetic braking system having a second element disposed thereon, wherein at least one of the first element and the second element generates a magnetic field; a linkage connected to at least one of the rotatable first portion and the second portion for moving the at least one of the rotatable first portion and the second portion; and a spring for biasing the rotatable first portion a first distance from the second portion, wherein upon application of a force to at least one of the rotatable first portion and the second portion, a relative position of the rotatable first portion to the second portion is reduced to a second distance less than the first distance, wherein a bias force of the spring is adjustable. |
