Title: The Innovative Contributions of Vaclav Kulle
Introduction
Vaclav Kulle is a notable inventor based in Blind Bay, CA. He has made significant contributions to the field of magnetic bearings and rotary electrical machines. With a total of 4 patents to his name, Kulle's work showcases his expertise and innovative spirit.
Latest Patents
One of Kulle's latest patents is for a sectoral core for magnetic bearing. This invention involves a rotary electrical machine that comprises a rotor assembly and a stator assembly separated by an air gap. The stator is formed from discrete generally pie-shaped pole pieces that have a progressively increasing radial slot to accommodate the winding of the coil. The pole pieces are preferably wound from a grain-oriented ferromagnetic tape to improve the permeability of the pole and its saturation level. Additionally, groups of poles may be separated into sectors. In an alternative embodiment, some of the pole pieces are formed from both a permanent magnet and ferromagnetic tape to provide a constant bias between the rotor and stator assemblies.
Another significant patent by Kulle focuses on flux control techniques for magnetic bearings. This invention features a magnetic bearing with several pole pieces disposed around the circumference of the shaft supported by the bearing. To inhibit magnetic flux migration within the bearing, magnetic barriers made of non-magnetic material are interposed between pole pieces at selected locations. Magnetic guides are also included to prevent magnetic saturation of the bridging portion of the pole pieces prior to the poles saturating.
