Embodiment Construction

[0072] In the following description, the terms 'connected' and 'coupled' refer to operatively connected and coupled. It should be understood that any number of intervening components, including no intervening components, may be present between the mentioned features.

[0073] figure 1 An apparatus 10 for transmitting electrical energy is shown according to various examples. Therefore, according to figure 1 Examples of can be incorporated or integrated into any such components, including, for example, azimuth thrusters. Device 10 includes first member 12 having first surface 14 , second member 16 having second surface 18 , first inductor 20 , and second inductor 22 . Thus, the device 10 may be any mechanical system, or part of a mechanical system. For example, the apparatus 10 may comprise part of an azimuth thruster for a marine vessel.

[0074] The first member 12 may be any fixed or rotatable part(s) of the device 10 . For example, the first member 12 may be included o...

Abstract

A thruster for propelling a marine vessel, the apparatus comprising an upper housing, a lower housing, the lower housing being arranged to rotate relative to the upper housing, a first body arranged within the upper housing, the first body comprising a first inductor to provide a magnetic field, and a second body arranged within the lower housing, the second body comprising a second inductor to generate an electrical current from the magnetic field.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to devices for transmitting electrical energy. Background technique [0002] The mechanical system may include at least a portion that is rotatable relative to an adjacent (fixed or rotatable) portion of the mechanical system. The transfer of electrical energy between two such parts may present several challenges due to the movement of the two parts. For example, a vessel may include azimuth thrusters for propelling the vessel in the water. Azimuth thrusters typically include a propeller that can be rotated about a vertical axis to select the direction of propulsion. There can be several challenges in transferring electrical energy between the stationary part of the vessel and the rotatable azimuth thrusters. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] According to various examples, there is provided a propeller for propelling a vessel, the propeller comprising: an upper casing; a lower casing arranged to rotate relative to th...
