Hybrid Touchdown Bearing System

View page
US Patent:
7830055, Nov 9, 2010
Filed:
Sep 28, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/904590
Inventors:
James Arseneaux - Westford MA, US
Assignee:
Beacon Power Corporation - Tyngsboro MA
International Classification:
H02K 7/09
US Classification:
310 905, 310 74, 310 90
Abstract:
Upon operation, flywheel assemblies sand other such rotational mechanisms are released by mechanical backup bearings, which then normally remain disengaged until shutdown as the flywheel assembly is levitated by the axial magnetic field. However, either due to over heating of bearings, power failure or other stimuli, flywheels often suffer a phenomenon deemed as touchdown down from the levitation state. During this touchdown event, flywheels inherently lose rotational momentum, thus ceasing to generate and release power and often cause damage to components as well as casing. Enhancements developed herein, through the introduction of the instant secondary hybrid touchdown bearing system, allow flywheels and other such systems to retain rotational momentum and continue generation of energy. Further, the instant system negates damage to system components, as well as bearing wear.

Flexible Bearing Damping System, Energy Storage System Using Such A System, And A Method Related Thereto

US Patent:
20030048964, Mar 13, 2003
Filed:
Sep 13, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/952231
Inventors:
Norman Brackett - N. Reading MA, US
Omar Kabir - Delanson NY, US
James Arseneaux - Westford MA, US
International Classification:
F16C019/50
F16C027/00
US Classification:
384/476000, 384/536000
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a bearing damping system for damping vibrations and conducting heat from vibration-producing, heat-generating devices, an evacuated energy storage system including such a bearing damping system for damping vibrations produced by the rotating shaft and conducting heat from bearings and/or bearing assemblies; and a method for damping vibrations and conducting heat from vibration-producing, heat-generating devices. In one aspect of the present invention, the system includes one or more flexible bearing dampers in combination with one or more heat transferring rosettes. The flexible, e.g., elastomeric, bearing dampers minimize the rigid body critical velocity, which further minimizes the amplitude of the vibrations so that relatively high damping energy is required. The heat transferring rosettes comprises a flexible thermally conductive member that transfers heat by conduction from the bearings, bearing assemblies and/or heat generating devices to a remote heat sink. Preferably, the flexible thermally conductive member comprises a first end of a thermally conductive member that is thermally coupled directly to the heat-generating device, a second end f a thermally conductive member that is thermally coupled directly or indirectly to the remote heat sink and a third conductive member therebetween.

US Patent:
20180069399, Mar 8, 2018
Filed:
Nov 14, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/812395
Inventors:
- Tyngsboro MA, US
Matthew L. Lazarewicz - Boxford MA, US
James F. Arseneaux - Westford MA, US
Paul Dresens - Wayland MA, US
Hernan Alex Rojas - Salem NH, US
Assignee:
Beacon Power, LLC - Tyngsboro MA
International Classification:
H02J 3/30
Abstract:
A method for controlling AC frequency of electrical power being distributed to an electrical distribution network that is connected to one or more electrical loads and to one or more power sources includes: electrically coupling an energy storage sub-system to the electrical distribution network, said energy storage sub-system including one or more flywheel energy storage systems; and controlling operation of each of the flywheel energy storage systems responsive to the AC frequency of the electrical power, so the electrical storage subsystem injects or absorbs an amount of electrical energy into or from the electrical distribution network so as to regulate the AC frequency of the electrical power being distributed to the electrical distribution network so as to be at or about a desired AC frequency.
