Abstract:
An electromechanical actuator power drive unit for dynamic braking is provided, comprising an electric motor with a stator, a rotor that rotates with respect to the stator, and windings fixed to the stator. There is a control unit configured to supply a current to the windings. When the control unit is not supplying current to the windings, an electrical device allows current to flow through a parallel current path to the windings. The new current is generated by the interaction of a roller connected with a gear set to the rotor. The roller, and therefore the rotor, is urged in a rotational direction by the translational velocity of a load in contact with the roller. The new current generated by the rotating rotor flows in the opposite direction as the first current supplied by the power supply unit and creates a dynamic braking torque in the electric motor.

Claim (Index 12):
A method for performing a dynamic braking function, the method comprising:\n providing a first electric current to an electric motor, the electric motor comprising a stator and a rotor that is rotatable with respect to the stator and windings; wherein at least one roller is operably connected to the rotor and is configured to receive a load; allowing current to flow through a parallel current path when the first electric current is not being provided to the electric motor; allowing the load to rotate the at least one roller when the load translates over the at least one roller; creating a rotor velocity with the rotating roller; generating a second electric current in the windings and the electric device in the opposite direction as the first electric current when the first electric current is not being provided to the electric motor; and creating a dynamic braking torque in the electric motor with the second electric current.
