  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING A SHAFT SHEAR EVENT
    Publication number: 20250060281
    Abstract: The method can include monitoring a current value of a rate of reduction of rotation speed of the shaft, including receiving a plurality of values of rotation speed over time, at a sampling rate below 200 ms, and determining a difference between two non-subsequent ones of said plurality of values of rotation speed; providing a threshold value of a rate of reduction of rotation speed of the shaft; and generating a signal indicative of the shaft shear event when the current value exceeds threshold value.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 6, 2024
    Publication date: February 20, 2025
    Inventors: Philippe BEAUCHESNE-MARTEL, Jeremie HEBERT, Pramuk FERNANDO, Jasraj CHAHAL
  • Method and system for detecting a shaft shear event
    Patent number: 12163859
    Abstract: The method can include monitoring a current value of a rate of reduction of rotation speed of the shaft; providing a threshold value of a rate of reduction of rotation speed of the shaft; and generating a signal indicative of the shaft shear event when the current value exceeds threshold value.

  • Method and system for detecting a shaft shear event
    Patent number: 11619139
    Abstract: The method can include: monitoring a current value of a rate of reduction of torque of the shaft; providing a threshold value for the rate of reduction of torque of the shaft; and generating a signal indicative of the shaft shear event when the current value exceeds the threshold value.
