Description

Rotary electric converter with preferred lubricant Cross-reference with related applications The present invention claims priority and benefits, etc. to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/032,840 filed on June 1, 2020, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Statements on U.S. federally sponsored research and development Not applicable. Notice of copyrighted content Parts of the material of this patent document may be protected under copyright law in the United States and other countries. The copyright holder does not object to facsimile reproduction by anyone of any files or records that are publicly available from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, but otherwise reserves all copyright. By virtue of this specification, the copyright holder does not waive any right to keep this patent document secret, including without limitation the right under 37 C.F.R. § 1.14. Technology field The technology of the present invention generally relates to a "rotary transformer," that is, a slip ring assembly that allows the passage of electricity between a stationary or fixed environment and a rotating environment. Generally, the present invention is connected to a power source and/or electrical load consumption device that uses this technology for power generation and/or power consumption. A preferred lubricant or boundary layer conductor (BLC) is used in the rotary transformer of the present invention, generally as nearly pure triacylglyceride or a mixture of triglyceride and natural or artificial oil materials, to facilitate the passage of electricity between a stationary sintered conductive surface and a rotating sintered conductive surface and to minimize wear between the conductive surfaces in contact during rotation. Examples of non-limiting uses include: 1) a wind or flowing liquid generator for a power grid (power consumption); 2) a standard motor having a rotating magnetic field coil for a power source (electrical load consumption device); 3) a counter-rotating (CR) electric motor assembly (electric load consuming device) for power supply; and 4) an equivalent power supply for a power-using assembly, etc. Applications include devices in which at least part of the device is stationary and another part of the device rotates and requires a continuous flow of electricity during rotational operation. The phrase "rotary transformer" indicates that the present invention passes electricity in a stationary environment and a rotating environment and is traditionally referred to as a slip ring assembly. More specifically, the present invention comprises a stationary substrate having a contact surface and a moving substrate having a contact surface that allows the passage of electricity between the two contact surfaces by sliding on the stationary substrate in a manner that brings the two contact surfaces close to each other and is lubricated with a boundary layer conductor. U.S. Patent Nos. 8,198,773; 8,253,294; and 8,531,072 (patented to the applicant) are for various double-reversing motor/generator applications. Relevant is U.S. Patent No. 10,116,187 for a Thin-Profile Counter-Rotating Differential Electric Motor Assembly (issued to the applicant and referred to as Patent '187). In particular, this CR motor assembly is, specifically, a relatively small electric motor having a thrust of generally less than about 10 lbs. As described in Patent '187, the CR motor assembly comprises: a central solid shaft having first and second ends (whether fixed or rotating); first and second rotating members rotating in opposite directions around this central solid shaft; first and second propellers fixed to the first and second rotating members, respectively; and electromagnetic means for powering the rotation associated with the first and second rotating members. It is provided with a means for transmitting electricity from an external power source to an electromagnetic means, positioned between the rotating members and the mounting means that rotate in the opposite direction and fixed to the second end of the central solid axis. This particular design is ideal for small CR motors in which the mass of the CR motor (mainly the first and second rotating members and the electromagnetic means) is relatively small (thrust of about <10 lbs). In addition, International Publication WO 2018/106611 (also patented to the applicant and referred to as WIPO '611) describes an electrical transmission means or a high current and high RPM-capable slip ring assembly that can be used with the CR motor disclosed in Patent '187. However, since the electrical wiring extends from the power source to the outside of the slip ring assembly, this slip ring assembly must be used between the first and second rotating members (and electromagnetic means) and the mounting means, as in Patent '187. The central shaft or axle is solid for the slip ring assembly. It is impossible to position this slip ring assembly inside or on the first and
