  • Patent number: 12381506
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device (1) for controlling an electric aircraft-propelling assembly, said propelling assembly comprising a propeller (3) and at least one electric motor (4) that is powered by an electric supply voltage and that delivers a torque and a rotation speed to drive the propeller (3). The control device (1) comprises at least a unit (11) for measuring an electric supply voltage, and a control unit (12) suitable for making a signal delivered to the electric motor vary as a function of said electric supply voltage, with a view to making the rotation speed of the propeller vary.

  • Patent number: 12294283
    Abstract: A cooling system for a drive device with several electric machines, the cooling system including a hydraulic circuit for a coolant including a cooling part in a gearbox of the drive device for cooling the gearbox, and an air/coolant heat exchanger including cooling walls forming channels for circulating coolant for the cooling thereof, an air cooling circuit including a plurality of fans, rotationally coupled to the gearbox, a cooling part between the cooling walls of the air/liquid heat exchanger, wherein the air sucked in and propelled by the fans circulates by sweeping over the cooling walls in order to cool them.

  • Publication number: 20240234236
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a power electronics apparatus. The power electronics apparatus includes at least a first electrically conductive element and a second electrically conductive element. The elements are intended to be at a first electrical potential and at a second electrical potential, respectively. At least a first and second power electronics components are mounted on the first and second elements, respectively, a first portion and a second portion of a sink are mounted on the first conductive element and on the second conductive element, respectively, so as to permit the transfer of heat from each power component to the corresponding portion of the sink through the corresponding conductive element. An electrical insulator is present between each portion of the sink so as to prevent the risk of flashover between the two portions.
