Gyroscopic boat roll stabilizer with bearing cooling

A gyroscopic roll stabilizer includes an enclosure, a flywheel assembly, a bearing, a motor, and a bearing cooling circuit. The enclosure is mounted to a gimbal for rotation about a gimbal axis and configured to maintain a below-ambient pressure. The flywheel assembly includes a flywheel and flywheel shaft. The bearing rotatably mounts the flywheel assembly inside the enclosure for rotation about a flywheel axis. The bearing has an inner race and an outer race. The inner race is affixed to the flywheel shaft, and the outer race is held rotationally fixed relative to the enclosure. The motor is operative to rotate the flywheel assembly. The bearing cooling circuit is configured to transfer heat away from the bearing by recirculating cooling fluid along a closed fluid pathway. The gyroscopic roll stabilizer is configured to transfer heat away from the inner and/or outer race of the bearing to the cooling fluid.

Cooling system and method for operating a cooling system

Disclosed is a cooling system comprising a refrigerant cycle for cycling refrigerant from at least a compressor unit for com-pressing gaseous refrigerant to a condenser unit for condensing gaseous refrigerant to liquid refrigerant, from the condenser unit to an evaporator unit for evaporating the liquid refrigerant to gaseous refrigerant, and from the evaporating unit back to the compressor unit, and a lubrication cycle having at least one lubricating refrigerant supply line for providing refrigerant as lubricant to a bearing assembly, wherein the at least one lubricating refrigerant supply line branches off from the refrigerant cycle at the condenser unit for providing refrigerant to the bearing assembly, and re-unites with the refrigerant cycle at the evaporator unit, for feeding back refrigerant from the bearing assembly to the refrigerant cycle.

This application is directed to an apparatus for providing electrical charge to a vehicle. The apparatus comprises a driven mass, a generator, a charger, a hardware controller, and a communication circuit. The driven mass rotates in response to a kinetic energy of the vehicle and is coupled to a shaft such that rotation of the driven mass causes the shaft to rotate. The driven mass exists in one of (1) an extended position and (2) a retracted position. The generator generates an electrical output based on a mechanical input coupled to the shaft such that rotation of the shaft causes the mechanical input to rotate. The charger is electrically coupled to the generator and: receives the electrical output, generates a charge output based on the electrical output, and conveys the charge output to the vehicle. The controller controls whether the driven mass is in the extended position or the retracted position in response to a signal received from the communication circuit.
