  • Turbine having a rotor forming a nutation and precession movement
    Patent number: 5159271
    Abstract: Turbine for the analysis of samples by nuclear magnetic resonance. It comprises a rotor (7) having a spherical central core (8), whereof a cavity (9) contains the solid sample to be analyzed. Two conical surfaces are provided on either side of the central core (8) for rolling on two conical surfaces (13) of the stator. Blades are driven by a flow of compressed gas. This arrangement makes it possible to move the rotor (7) very rapidly, while respecting a constant ratio of the nutation and precession rotation speeds.
