  • Vibration absorbing device for slip-ring brushes
    Patent number: 10833467
    Abstract: A sliding brush assembly for a slipring includes a sliding brush and an absorbing device containing absorbing material attached to the sliding brush, such that the at least one sliding brush is enclosed by the absorbing material. The absorbing device includes a housing with two (optionally identical) housing parts (each having an elongated base with a snap arm at one side and at the opposing side an opening, into which the snap-arm fits). The housing may easily be closed around a sliding brush by snapping two housing parts together.

  • Slipring with integrated heating unit
    Patent number: 10396516
    Abstract: A slipring assembly comprises a slipring module having at least one slipring track which is in electrical contact with at least one slipring brush. The slipring module includes an isolating body holding the at least one slipring track. Furthermore a heating element is embedded in the slipring module to generate heat within the slipring module and to increase the temperature of the at least one slipring track. This allows increasing the temperature of the slipring module to an optimum operation temperature and further to remove humidity from the surface of the slipring track.
