SYSTÈMES ET PROCÉDÉS POUR METTRE EN UVRE UN JOINT ROTATIF ÉLECTRIQUE DANS UN SYSTÈME DE GRAND DIAMÈTRE AU MOYEN DE BAGUES COLLECTRICES DE CAPSULE DE PETIT DIAMÈTRE
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.
