A rotary transformer is disclosed which includes a primary core having a primary coil wound thereon, and a secondary core having a secondary coil wound thereon, wherein said cores are mounted for relative rotation about an axis of rotation. One of said cores includes a plurality of core segments arranged in spaced-apart relation relative to one another in a substantially circular array about said axis, the other core having a substantially annular configuration. In a particular embodiment, said primary core is fixed and hence remains static during operation, and includes a plurality of spaced apart core segments arranged in a circular array around said axis. |
