20150274271 | PROPULSION SYSTEM FOR VESSELS - A propulsion system includes at least one permanent magnet motor, the magnet motor including an outer housing structure. In the housing structure, a stator and a rotor are arranged in such a way that a gap is formed between the stator and rotor, the stator being fixedly connected to the housing structure, whilst the rotor is connected to a motor shaft extending through the housing structure. A plurality of coils/windings are arranged around an inner circumference of the stator, whilst a plurality of permanent magnets are arranged around an outer circumference of the rotor. Through a coupling, the motor shaft is connected to a propeller shaft including a propeller. A thrust bearing and a propeller pitch control system are integrated into the permanent magnet motor. | 10-01-2015 |
20130064664 | PROPELLER PROPULSION SYSTEM FOR FLOATING STRUCTURES - A floating structure has a hull and a propeller propulsion system having a gear arrangement that is connected via a first intermediate shaft to at least one electromotor, the electromotor being arranged onboard the floating structure, and via a second intermediate shaft to a propeller. The gear arrangement has an angular gear. The first intermediate shaft forms an angle relative to the second intermediate shaft. The gear arrangement is arranged as a separate unit in an appendage or addition to the hull of the floating structure. The appendage or addition is designed to allow an interior thereof to be accessed from within the vessel, whereby maintenance, replacement, or repairs of the gear arrangement can be carried out. The angular gear has at least one angled gearwheel set and one cylindrical gearwheel set. | 03-14-2013 |
