High power transfer through load-supporting bearings
Patent Ludois, Daniel Colin; Dai, Jiejian; Hagen, Skyler
A system for power transfer to a movable platform makes use of a capacitive interface in moving elements of load-supporting bearings for power transfer. Tank circuits associated with each bearing increase power transfer by reducing effective impedance of the small bearing capacitances.
Optics assembly for high power laser tools
Patent Fraze, Jason D.; Faircloth, Brian O.; Zediker, Mark S.
There is provided a high power laser rotational optical assembly for use with, or in high power laser tools for performing high power laser operations. In particular, the optical assembly finds applications in performing high power laser operations on, and in, remote and difficult to access locations. The optical assembly has rotational seals and bearing configurations to avoid contamination of the laser beam path and optics.
Laser based ignition system for natural gas reciprocating engines, laser based ignition system having capability to detect successful ignition event; and distributor system for use with high-powered pulsed lasers
Patent Gupta, Sreenath Borra; Sekar, Ramanujam Raj; Hillman, Gregory E.
A laser based ignition system for stationary natural gas engines, a distributor system for use with high-powered lasers, and a method of determining a successful ignition event in a laser-based ignition system are provided. The laser based ignition (LBI) system for stationary natural gas engines includes a high power pulsed laser providing a pulsed emission output coupled to a plurality of laser plugs. A respective one of the plurality of laser plugs is provided in an engine cylinder. The laser plug focuses the coherent emission from the pulsed laser to a tiny volume or focal spot and a high electricmore » field gradient at the focal spot leads to photoionization of the combustible mixture resulting in ignition. « less
