METHOD FOR CONVERTING MECHANICAL LOAD POWER INTO CYCLIC MOVEMENT POWER AND DEVICE WHICH IMPLEMENTS SAID METHOD Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: driven member 3 is designed as magnetic system with permanent magnets 5, 6, 59, 60. Driving member 2 is designed as assembly of members 4, 62, 63, which are made from magnetostrictive material. Members 4, 62, 63 are located within effective range of magnetic field of said magnetic system. Device operates, when members 4, 62, 63 of driving member 2 are loaded. Possibility of relative movement of members is provided by alteration of direction or amplitude of magnetization of material of said members 4, 62, 63 upon their mechanical loading. Relative movement of members 2 and 3 is designed as reciprocal or rotational movement. EFFECT: simplified design, decreased amount of materials, facilitated manufacturing. 17 cl, 23 dwg
