AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In magnetic levitation bearing systems, the protective bearing is susceptible to damage from impact when the high-speed rotor falls. Traditional rigid mounting structures cannot effectively buffer and disperse the impact force, leading to bearing deformation or breakage, affecting equipment safety and increasing maintenance costs.

Method used

The protective bearing assembly is designed with an inner and outer ring arranged at intervals and connected by a damping structure. The damping structure absorbs the impact force, avoids direct impact damage, and improves the impact resistance.

Benefits of technology

It effectively absorbs the impact force when the rotor falls, prevents damage to the protective bearing, reduces the risk of equipment damage, and improves system safety and reliability.
