  • Position encoder with combined inductive and magnetic sensors
    Patent number: 11920927
    Abstract: A position encoder comprises: a first and second member, with the first member movable relative to the second member; a first sensor arranged at one of the first or second members, and a first track arranged at the other one of the first or second members such that the first sensor moves along the first track when the first member moves relative to the second member, with the first sensor capturing at least one of its position or displacement along the first track; a second sensor arranged at one of the first or second members, and a second track arranged at the other one of the first or second members such that the second sensor moves along the second track when the first member moves relative to the second member, with the second sensor capturing at least one of its position or displacement along the second track.
    Type: Grant

  • High-power compact electrical resistor
    Patent number: 10002693
    Abstract: The electrical resistance (10) includes a sealed housing (12) with a generally cylindrical shape defined along a longitudinal axis (X), a resistive element (16), extending along a spiral defined around the longitudinal axis (X), and a fluid guiding element (18), defining, with the sealed housing (12), a conduit for guiding a flow of fluid in contact with the resistive element (16). The guiding element (18) has a spiral shape defined around the longitudinal axis (X).
