Abstract: A turbocompressor assembly comprising a gas tight casing enclosing a rotor, a motor and a compressor arranged at a common shaft along a rotor axis, the rotor being disposed by a first bearing at a first axial end section of the shaft and a second bearing at a second axial end section of the shaft,  characterized in that  a retainer bearing is placed between the motor and the compressor such that the rotor is circumferentially enclosed by the retainer bearing to support the rotor is disclosed. The retainer bearing is fastened to the turbocompressor assembly using a fixing means to prevent relative movement of the retainer bearing with respect to the bending rotor. The retainer bearing is placed in a clamping device which carries away the loadings exerted by the bending rotor to the casing through the wedges, thereby preventing damage of rotor during emergency rundown.

Title: Détecteur d'activité électrique de couche physique

Abstract: [0045] L'invention concerne un circuit de détection de l'activité d'un signal différentiel de faible intensité qui peut être configuré pour rejeter de forts signaux de mode commun sur des lignes d'entrée différentielles, tout en continuant à détecter de plus petits signaux différentiels appliqués au même jeu de lignes d'entrée différentielles. Le circuit de détection peut comporter un tampon translinéaire piloté en entrée et en sortie par les signaux d'entrée différentiels. Le signal différentiel qui pilote ainsi les entrées du circuit de détection peut être redressé sur une alternance via les dispositifs de sortie du tampon et peut être filtré pour fournir la sortie détectée. Lorsqu'on applique un signal de mode commun, il se peut que l'entrée et la sortie du tampon effectuent un suivi réciproque, et qu'aucun courant ne soit redressé dans les dispositifs de sortie, assurant ainsi un rejet du signal de mode commun. Le circuit de détection peut également être configuré avec deux tampons dont les sorties sont raccordées à un nœud commun, chaque entrée de tampon étant pilotée par l'un des signaux d'entrée différentiels. Le signal différentiel pilotant ainsi les entrées du circuit de détection peut être entièrement redressé à travers les dispositifs de sortie des deux tampons et peut être filtré pour fournir la sortie détectée. Les deux tampons peuvent être configurés dans une structure symétrique qui autorise le rejet des signaux de mode commun lorsque les sorties des tampons sont raccordées à un nœud commun.
