ELECTRONIC SPEED SENSOR Filed Oct. 28, 1965 INVENTOR. DONALD B. HEASLlP ATTORNEY United States Patent Ofiice 3,284,568 Patented Nov. 8, 1966 3,284,668 ELECTRONIC SPEED SENSOR Donald B. Heaslip, Sauquoit, N.Y., assignor to The Bendix Corporation, Utica, N .Y., a corporation of Delaware Filed Oct. 28, 1963, Ser. No. 319,162 3 Claims. (Cl. 3175) This invention relates to speed-responsive, electrical controls and more particularly concerns such a control which is initiated by electro-magnetic means.
Some motors, such as air turbine starters, require a speed-sensing device for interrupting the supply of air to the motor at a predetermined speed which corresponds to the speed necessary for starting an engine. In the past, mechanical-fiyweight, speed-sensmg devices have been frequently used. Such devices depend upon mechanical movement against springs and involve the wearing of rotating parts which necessarily affect the accuracy and reliability. These rotating mechanical speed-sensmg devices also are relatively bulky and expensive. It has been proposed to use electro-magnetic means for generating a speed-responsive signal which is used to actuate a control device for the motor to be regulated. In one such proposal, a resonant'reed relay is actuated by the electro-magnetic means which generates an A.C. signal. In some instances, several closures of the resonant reed relay contacts were necessary in order to provide sufficient power for operation of the relay coil. This functionlng sometimes resulted in a delay and improper operation and hence has disadvantages.
An object of the present invention is to provide an improved electrical speed-sensing control which does not rely on a mechanical, speed-sensing device whereby a wearing of rotating mechanical parts is avoided and more accurate and reliable speed-sensing is realized.
Another object is to provide an improved electrical speed-sensing control which is inexpensive, compact, and more sensitive.
A further object is the provision of a speed-sensing control having a resonant reed relay and an electro-magnetic speed sensing device wherein more rapid functioning of the resonant reed relay is achieved so that a control device for a motor is more precisely operated at a predetermined speed.
The realization of the above objects, along with the features and advantages of the invention, will be apparent from the following description and the accompanying drawing.
The drawing is a schematic showing of a DC. source, a main control switch for circuitry including an electromagnetic pickup, a resonant reed relay, a silicon controlled rectifier, and a double-throw control relay.
Referring to the drawing, a DC. source 11 is connected to a main control switch 13 having wire 15 connected to lead 17 of the resonant reed relay 19. Resonant reed relay 19 has a first reed contact 21 with lead 17 and a second reed contact 23 having lead 25. The resonant reed relay 19 also has a power coil 27 for causing the two reed contacts 21 and 23 to vibrate at a natural frequency for the closing at the contact tips thereof. The resonant relay coil 27 is connected to the energizing coil 29 of the electro-magnetic pickup device 31. The magnetic pickup device 31 will generate an A.C. signal when energized by exciter rotor 33, having projections 35 of magnetic material. Rotor 33 is rotated by an air turbine starter (not shown). At a predetermined speed and frequency, the generated A.C. signal will correspond to the natural frequency required for closing the reed contacts 21 and 23, as is well known.
A wire 41 extends from the juncture of wire 15 and lead 17 to the anode lead 43 of the silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) 45. The cathode lead 47 from SCR 45 is connected to double-throw relay 49 by means of wire 51 while the gate lead 53 of SCR 45 is connected to lead 25 of resonant reed 23. The double-throw control relay 49 has an actuating coil 61 which has a predetermined inductance and is grounded and a load resistance 63 is connected in parallel with coil 61. The relay 49 includes a first fixed contact 65 which is normally open (N/O), a center moveable common contact 67, and a second fixed contact 69 which is normally closed (N/C). The common switch contact 67 is connected by wire 71 to wire 41 at a location between SCR 45 and the main control switch 13. The lower or first fixed contact 65 is connected to the juncture of the coil 61, the resistance 63, and the wire 51. The upper fixed contact 61 is connected by wire 73 to a load 75 which is grounded. Load 75 can be a normally-closed, air supply, solenoid valve for the mentioned air turbine starter.
The SCR 45 is a high speed, sensitive gating silicon controlled rectifier, such as the 2N1595 made by the Texas Instruments Company, Dallas, Texas. The load resistor 63 (used in parallel with the coil 63 of the relay 49) has a value which permits a holding current to flow immediately through the SCR 45 when first gated in spite of the inductance of coil 63 whereby the SCR locks in immediately and operates more proficiently under inductive load.
In operation, the switch 13 is closed and then the solenoid of the normally-closed air supply valve or the load 75 is energized, whereby air is supplied to an air turbine starter (not shown) and thus causing toothed rotor 33 to rotate. The toothed rotor 33 is part of the starter gear box (not shown) or other similar device. As toothed rotor 33 rotates, an A.C. signal is generated in the coil 29 of the magnetic pickup 31. This power signal is fed to the coil 27 of a resonant reed relay 19. Below starting speed, the resonant reed relay 19 will remain open since the output from the magnetic pickup is below the required resonant frequency. When a predetermined speed of rotor 33 is reached and the frequency of the generated signal is the same as the natural frequency of the reeds 21 and 23 of the resonant reed relay 19, the reeds 21 and 23 vibrate and contact each other. At the first closure of the contacts on the tips of the reeds 21 and 23, the silicon controlled rectifier 45 is gated and slightly thereafter, the actuating coil 61 of the relay 49 is energized, causing the relay switch to operate. As the common element 67 of the switch breaks from the second or N/C contact 69, the load 75 is de-energized. As the common element 69 of the switch makes with the first or N/O contact 67, an additional holding circuit to the relay coil 61 is completed. Relay 49 will not be de-energized until switch 13 is opened. The resistance 63 offsets the inductive load from coil 61 so that SCR 45 operates better.
It is to be noted that the use of the self-holding, silicon controlled rectifier circuit allows the relay 49 to operate after the first closure of the reed relay contacts 21 and 23. Many closures of the reed relay contacts to prov1de the energy necessary for a relay of the type shown to switch to holding position do not result. As mentioned, the inductance of the relay coil 61 does not delay immediate flow of the holding current for the SCR since the load resistor 63 permits flow of the required holding current. The coil 63 operates a few milliseconds after the SCR is initially gated with the consequent self-holding by flow through resistor 63. The inductance would prevent a self-holding current during the brief current flow at the first closing of the contact reeds.
It is to be understood that changes can be made in the disclosed embodiment of the invention by persons skilled in the art without departing from the invention as set forth in the following claims.
What is claimed is:
1. A control system for a mechanical source of power having an associated primary source of electrical power connected to a load comprising:
