Abstract
The present invention relates to a magnetic center-finding structure, and more particularly a magnetic center-finding bearing structure intended notably for space applications. The present invention proposes a magnetic concept with no magnet on the rotor, the rotor being reduced to a crown comprising magnetic yokes, to arrange an item of equipment that can be tested on the ground, under gravity, in all positions, without the addition of extra energy, and with a reduction in the complexity of said device.
