an electrical connector designed to carry current or
an electromechanical device that allows the transmission of power and electrical signals from a stationary to a rotating structure
a rotary coupling used to transfer electric current from a stationary unit to a rotating unit
Found inside the Gantry , the slip ring provides a continuous electrical connection to the stationary portion of the CT machine.
Used to transfer electricity to or from rotating parts in motors and yaw mechanisms.
A conductor band mounted on an armature and insulated from it. A brush slides on the band as the armature rotates. The function of the slip ring system is essentially the same as a commutator and brushes. Slip rings are also used to transmit current from the armature in a generator application.
Electrically conductive ring, which is used around a shaft to conduct current from a rotating part to a non-rotating part as with generators or electric motors.
A slip ring (in electrical engineering terms) is a method of making an electrical connection through a rotating assembly. Slip rings, also called rotary electrical interfaces, collectors, swivels or electrical rotary joints, are commonly found in electrical generators for AC systems and alternators.
