1467559 Gyroscopic apparatus BENDIX CORP 12 May 1975 [17 June 1974] 19897/75 Heading G1C A redundant inertial measuring system comprises three strapdown platforms 10, 12, 14 supported by a vehicle having three mutually perpendicular axes each of which is equiangularly spaced between adjacent normals to the faces of an imaginary regular dodecahedron D, each platform being disposed along one of the axes and having a pair of compartments. Each platform supports two inertial sensors 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, the sensors being orientated by disposing each sensitive axis 1'-6' thereof substantially normal to a respective face 1-6 of the imaginary regular dodecahedron D, power supply means, rebalancing means and scaling means being associated with each sensor, each rebalancing means providing an output which is independent of the output from the other rebalancing means. Each sensor within each platform is electrically and physically separated from the other sensor. As described, the sensors are gyros and the power supply means and the rebalancing means are interchangeable between compartments. |
