Patents by Inventor Julien LE BORDAYS

Julien LE BORDAYS has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11473815
    Abstract: A cooling device employing a thermodynamic cycle of the reverse stirling cycle type is provided. The device includes a compressor with a reciprocating piston driven by a rotary motor about an axis by means of a crankshaft. The device further comprises a monobloc support forming a cylinder in which the piston of the compressor moves. The crankshaft is supported by a single bearing. The bearing is positioned without an intermediate component in a housing of the monobloc support.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 27, 2019
    Date of Patent: October 18, 2022
    Assignee: THALES
    Inventors: Julien Le Bordays, Jean-Yves Martin, Mikel Sacau
  • Publication number: 20200208883
    Abstract: A cooling device implementing a stirling-type thermodynamic cycle includes a compressor with a reciprocating piston driven by an electric motor rotating about an axis via a crankshaft. The electric motor comprises an internal stator and an external rotor and is connected to the crankshaft via a link with at least one degree of freedom in rotation about the axis of the electric motor.

  • Patent number: 10544964
    Abstract: A cooler operating on the Stirling cycle, of the type including a compressor with a compression piston moving in a compression cylinder, a regenerator with a regeneration piston moving in a regeneration cylinder, a driving crankshaft including a crank pin that can rotate with respect to the compression cylinder and/or the regeneration cylinder, and a compression connecting rod, including a head mounted on the front pin and a foot articulated on the compression piston, the regeneration piston being connected to the crankshaft by a link element including at least three rigid adjacent sections connected by at least two spring-type connecting rods.
