TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION TUNABLE MAGNETIC DAMPING DEVICE

Title:

TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION TUNABLE MAGNETIC DAMPING DEVICE

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JP2011133109

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

To provide a temperature compensation tunable magnetic damping device.

The damping apparatus is equipped with at least: one pair of magnets; a conducting member; a magnetic shunt; and a temperature sensing mechanism. The pair of magnets defines a gap therebetween. The magnets generate a magnetic flux circuit having a magnetic flux path within the gap and a magnetic flux return path outside the gap. The conducting member is positioned at least partially within the gap. The magnetic shunt is positioned at least partially within the magnetic flux return path of the magnets. The temperature sensing mechanism is coupled to the magnetic shunt. The temperature sensing mechanism is configured to control a position of the magnetic shunt based on a sensed temperature.
