The invention discloses a high-transmission-ratio suspension shaft centrifugal supercharger which comprises a transmission unit, a fan supercharging unit and a cooling unit; the transmission unit is composed of a belt wheel, a planetary gear mechanism, a friction wheel group and a suspension mainshaft, the planetary gear mechanism comprises a sun gear and a planetary gear both installed in a gearbox, the sun gear and the belt wheel are in coaxial installation and rotate together, the planetary gears are distributed at the periphery of the sun gear in a 120 degree symmetric way and are meshed with and follow up the sun gear; the friction wheel group comprises friction wheels arranged in a sealed box and arranged coaxially with corresponding planetary gears; the suspension mainshaft generates contact friction with surfaces of the friction wheels and is driven to rotate together with the friction wheels; the cooling unit is used to pump out high-temperature lubricating oil in the gearbox and the sealed box, and lubricating oil is returned after cooling is performed. According to the invention, the supercharger is substantially improved in transmission precision and speed increasing ratio at a high speed range, and also possesses characteristics of long safe life, convenience for mounting, good heat dispersion performance, low noise and the like.

A system for implementing an electrical rotary joint in a large-diameter system using relatively small-diameter capsule slip rings is described herein. The system includes a system rotor that rotates about a system axis of rotation, and a system stator that is stationary with respect to the system rotor. The system also includes at least one conductive contact channel disposed on one of the system rotor and the system stator. The system further includes at least one capsule slip ring (CSR) coupled to the other of the system rotor and the system stator. The at least one CSR has a conductive annular element coupled thereto, the conductive annular element in mechanical contact with the at least one conductive contact channel such that the at least one CSR forms an electrical rotary joint between the system rotor and the system stator.

A power transmission roller assembly is provided which includes a roller body to be brought into abutment with the driving roller and the driven roller; a pivot shaft fixed to a vehicle body; a pivot arm provided radially inside of the roller body, and pivotally mounted on the pivot shaft; a roller support bearing rotatably supporting the roller body; and a pair of biasing members provided on the pivot arm. The pair of biasing members bias the roller support bearing to a predetermined position between the driving and driven rollers where the abutment forces between the roller body and the driving and driven rollers balance with each other.

A torque-variable single-shaft rotary shaft structure with multiple frictional pairs includes a pivot shaft. A first support is secured to a pivot shaft and a second support is disposed on the pivot shaft. An adjustment wheel assembly, a frictional assembly and an elastic assembly are fitted on the pivot shaft. The adjustment wheel assembly and the frictional assembly have a first adjustment wheel and a second frictional member synchronously movable with the first support and a second adjustment wheel and a first frictional member synchronously movable with the second support. When the first and second supports are rotated, the first and second adjustment wheels are driven to contact and abut against each other so as to provide axial action forces. The frictional assembly has multiple first and second frictional members, which are alternately arranged in frictional contact with each other to form multiple frictional pairs.
