11306783 · 2022-04-19 · ·

A bearing provides a first ring and a second ring capable of rotating concentrically relative to one another. At least one tapered groove is formed on a first axial cylindrical surface of the second ring and oriented towards the first ring. The bearing further provides at least one first distance sensor mounted on the first ring and facing a tapered wall of the tapered groove of the second ring that is inclined with respect to the axis of the bearing, a longitudinal axis of the first distance sensor being perpendicular to the axis, and at least one second distance sensor mounted on the first ring and distinct from the first distance sensor. The second distance sensor radially faces a second axial cylindrical surface of the second ring.

Method for constructing active magnetic bearing controller based on look-up table method

A method for constructing an active magnetic bearing controller based on a look-up table method includes: building finite element models of an active magnetic bearing to obtain two universal Kriging prediction models in X-axis and Y-axis directions about actual suspension forces being in association with actual displacement eccentricities and actual control currents in the X-axis and Y-axis directions of the active magnetic bearing based on a universal Kriging model; creating two model state tables in the X-axis and Y-axis directions about the actual suspension forces being in association with the actual displacement eccentricities and the actual control currents to construct two look-up table modules with the two built-in model state tables, respectively; and constructing an active magnetic bearing controller by using two fuzzy adaptive PID controllers, two amplifier modules in the X-axis and Y-axis directions, the two look-up table modules, and two measurement modules in the X-axis and Y-axis directions.

CHASSIS COMPONENT FOR A WHEEL SUSPENSION AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A CHASSIS COMPONENT
20210309061 · 2021-10-07 ·

A chassis component for a wheel suspension, having a strut arrangement with at least one strut which has a profile with an open cross-section. The at least one strut has a profile base and two wall sections which extend away from the base. An end of the strut has an articulation point that receives a first joint component having a spherical joint body and a second joint component which holds the joint body so as to rotate and/or pivot. A first joint accommodation aperture and a second joint accommodation aperture are arranged, in the area of the articulation point, opposite one another. The joint body is positioned via a circular-segment-shaped fastening element arranged on the joint body between the joint accommodation apertures. The joint accommodation apertures and the joint body positioned between them are integrated in a joint housing produced by overmolding, which forms the second joint component.
