Sensitive Electrical To Mechanical Transducer

US Patent:
5022425, Jun 11, 1991
Filed:
Mar 28, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/500524
Inventors:
Robert C. Prescott - N. Marshfield MA
Robert J. Robinson - Derry NH
Assignee:
Dresser Industries Inc. - Dallas TX
International Classification:
G05D 1600
US Classification:
137 82
Abstract:
A transducer having a cross field polarized permanent magnet mounted for slight pivotal movement within an annular coil winding. The magnet comprises neodymium-iron-boron to provide a compact, lightweight, low inertia and high intensity magnetic field. A magnetic field generated by current in the coil winding influences the permanent magnet to pivot slightly about a horizontal axis and rotate a yoke structure to produce a mechanical output of the transducer. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the yoke is attached to a spring arm for controlling escape gas pressure from a nozzle to thereby control the pressure of a gas stream.
