A method, system, apparatus, and/or device for generating electrical power from a solar cell and rotational energy from a blade of a wind turbine. The method, system, apparatus, and/or device a blade of a wind turbine, a solar cell, and a rotor system. The blade may be blade configured to catch wind from a surrounding area to rotate the blade and convert kinetic energy into rotational energy. The solar cell may be connected to an exterior surface of the blade. The solar cell may be configured to convert solar energy into electric energy. The rotor system may be electrically connected to the solar cell to receive the electric energy from the solar cell. The rotor system may be configured to remain stationary relative to the blade as the blade rotates about an axis. The rotor system is configured to send the electric energy to a power source.

A powered actuator unit for use in a closure system of a motor vehicle. The powered actuator unit includes a common housing configured to house a brushless DC (BLDC) electronic motor unit, a gear drive unit, a shift support arrangement, and a controller arrangement.

The carrier includes an outer ring segment being planar and an inner ring segment being arcuate and a web segment interconnecting the outer ring segment and the inner ring segment and the plurality of electromagnetic subassemblies are each adapted to abut one another in an annular arrangement upon assembly. The outer ring segments define an outer peripheral surface of the stator unit having a polygonal cross-section and the inner ring segments define a rotor cavity having a circular cross-section.

A slip ring unit for an electrical machine is provided for accommodating a carbon brush system. The slip ring unit includes at least one insulating segment having shaped sections for cooling parts of the electrical machine. The insulating segment having the shaped sections is shaped from the insulating segment as a fanwheel, wherein the insulating segment having the shaped sections forms a fan to distribute a cooling air flow to the parts of the electrical machine to be cooled. The slip ring unit has boreholes on the sides of supports of the slip rings for passage of cooling air.

A motor coil substrate includes a flexible substrate, and multiple coils formed on the flexible substrate such that each of the coils has a spiral shape. The flexible substrate has multiple folding lines formed and the multiple coils positioned such that the flexible substrate is folded at the folding lines and wound around a magnet and that an m-th coil and an (m+1)-th coil of the coils partially overlap one another when folded at the folding lines.

The present disclosure relates to a conductive slip ring for logging while drilling (LWD) instrument. The present disclosure utilizes a mechanical conductive slip ring to solve the problems of transmission of electric power and signals between two structures that have relative rotation, and the conductive slip ring has a simple structure, doesn't involve any complex circuit, and has low cost and high reliability. With the conductive slip ring in the present disclosure, there is no power transmission efficiency problem or signal transmission error rate problem. The conductive slip ring has high temperature-resistant, pressure-proof, and vibration-roof abilities, and can be applied widely.
