DEVICE FOR INFLUENCING A FLOW OF PARTICLES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/117631
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for influencing a flow of particles, said device having a housing (2; 62) and adjusting means (6; 46; 66) which are movably accommodated in the housing (2; 62) and are used for influencing the state of movement of the particles in the housing (2; 62), and having a coupling device (7; 47; 67) for contactlessly introducing force into the adjusting means (6; 46; 66), said coupling device being provided outside of the housing (2; 62). A permanent magnet arrangement (28) or a superconductor is associated with the adjusting means (6; 46; 66), and the coupling device (7; 47; 67) comprises a superconductor (21) or a permanent magnet arrangement, the superconductor being designed for contactless, magnetic field-assisted transmission of forces to the permanent magnet arrangement (28). According to the invention, in addition to the superconductor (21) and the permanent magnet arrangement (28), a transmission path for contactless energy transmission and/or signal transmission is formed between the coupling device (7; 47; 67) and the housing (2; 62) and/or the adjusting means (6; 46; 66).
