A rotating part that includes at least one generator unit having at least one coil, at least one permanent magnet and two pole shoes having pole surfaces facing radially outward is provided, The non-rotating part has an arc-shaped saddle adaptor of ferromagnetic material arranged with a radial distance to the pole surfaces. The saddle adaptor is configured to close a magnetic circuit passing via the pole shoes through the coil in a rotational position where the saddle adaptor overlaps with the pole shoes of the generator unit.

Power generator assembly comprising a non-rotating part and an electric device included on a rotating part

A power generator assembly including a rotating part and a non-rotating part is provided. It is proposed that the rotating part includes first and second, circumferentially adjacent generator units. Each generator unit includes at least one coil, at least one permanent magnet and two pole shoes having pole surfaces facing radially outward. The non-rotating part includes an arc-shaped saddle adaptor of ferromagnetic material arranged with a radial distance to the pole surfaces. The saddle adaptor is configured to close a magnetic circuit passing via the pole shoes through the coil in a rotational position where the saddle adaptor overlaps with the pole shoes of a generator unit. According to the invention, a pole shoe of the first generator unit and an adjacent pole shoe of the second generator unit have the same magnetic polarity.

Power generator assembly for rotating applications

Embodiments provide a couplant and an arrangement of a couplant, a transducer, and a construction component. The couplant is adapted to couple the transducer to the surface of the construction component. The couplant provides 36% to 40% mass portion of hard metal.

Couplant and arrangement of couplant, transducer, and construction component

A couplant and an arrangement of a couplant include a transducer and a construction component. The couplant is adapted to couple the transducer to a surface of the construction component. The couplant comprises basically 15% to 75% mass portion of hard metal.

An assembly comprising at least an electrical component mounted on a substrate. The component includes at least a first electrode and a second electrode. The substrate includes at least a first electrical conductor and a second electrical conductor. The first electrode is electrically connected to the first electrical conductor and the second electrode is electrically connected to the second electrical conductor. In a direction perpendicular to the substrate, the first electrode is located between the first electrical conductor and the second electrode. The second electrode is connected to the second electrical conductor by a connecting element extending between the second electrode and the second electrical conductor.

Assembly comprising at least an electrical component mounted on a substrate, a component suitable for such an assembly as well as a method for mounting an electrical component on a substrate

A hub unit including an end cap for preloading and retaining a bearing unit on an axle. The end cap is provided with a sensor unit for detecting at least one of vibrations and temperature of the bearing unit.

A measurement system comprises a measurement unit, a transmitter, an autarkic power unit and a control unit. The measurement unit measures a quantity repeatedly and the transmitter connects the measurement system to a network and transmits data to the network based on the measurements of the measurement unit. Further, the autarkic power unit supplies electrical energy to the measurement unit, the transmitter and the control unit. Additionally, the control unit controls the measurement of the quantity and the transmission of data dynamically based on a currently available amount of energy provided by the power unit. Further, the control unit stops measurements by the measurement unit and keeps the transmitter connected to the network, if the currently available amount of energy is below a predefined energy limit indicating that the currently available amount of energy is too low for taking measurements and for keeping connected to the network.
