Gear adaptive Variator Gearbox variator is the toothed tranny with the adjustable transfer ratio which is certainly adapting to the adjustable loading. Unsuccessful attempts of creation of a equipment variator were undertaken repeatedly. The main problem is-maintenance of continuous engagement of cogwheels of a variator. The decision of this problem can be based on usage of a kinematic chain with two degrees of freedom. Earlier it had been proved that this kinematic chain with shut contour possesses the effect of force adaptation. The gear variator can be carried out in the form of the closed differential mechanism. The external variable technological loading adjustments the transfer ratio itself with no control system. The apparatus variator opens essentially new idea of creation of adaptive engineering for machines with variable technological resistance (for instance, adaptive gearbox of car). The idea of a gear variator is founded on discovery «Impact of drive adaptation in mechanics» which is certainly released in leading editions of globe press. In the paper the bases of the theory of a equipment adaptive variator are offered.
There are different types of DC drive setups with the designation dependant on the foundation of their DC current. This is often the case in emergency back-up systems. For instance, power plants have a bank of batteries supplying DC current to emergency oil pumps that supply oil to the bearings of a turbine during a crisis shutdown. A second source of DC current could be from a (Motor-Generator) MG arranged. In cases like this, the engine drives a DC generator that generates the DC current. These initial two types of drives provide pure DC current, for that reason they do not produce any significant electrically induced indicators when it comes to vibration. The last kind of DC drive, and the one that will be talked about in this paper, uses silicon controlled rectifiers (SCRs) to rectify AC current into DC Current. These drives produce 
a DC signal with AC pulses that correspond to the firing of the SCRs. These pulses or lack thereof in the case of failed SCRs and or gating complications produce vibration signals that can be analyzed to determine the source of the defect. Improper tuning of variable speed drives may also generate vibration problems.
Rectification: The first concept that needs to be understood when it comes to DC drives is definitely rectification. Rectification may be the process of transforming AC current into DC current. Pictured below is certainly a fifty percent wave rectifier and the resulting result. Only the positive part of the current Al passes through the rectifier.
