AI Technical Summary
In existing electro-permanent magnet composite thrust bearings, the asynchronous movement of the permanent magnet bearing rotor and the electromagnetic bearing thrust disk makes it difficult to achieve effective composite operation. Furthermore, traditional solutions suffer from wear, fatigue risks, and high power consumption.
By using a built-in displacement sensor to provide real-time feedback on the rotor position and a hollow hydraulic cylinder to adjust the position of the electromagnetic bearing coil, closed-loop synchronous control of the rotor's axial movement is achieved. Combined with the calibration of the permanent magnet bearing's force-displacement characteristics and the setting of the electromagnetic bearing's current parameters, quasi-zero stiffness design in any range is realized.
Dynamic control of the air gap between the electromagnetic bearing and the thrust disk was achieved, which reduced operating power consumption, reduced the risk of component wear and fatigue, and improved vibration reduction and isolation performance and control accuracy.
