Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0182947A1] An armature, for conducting very large DC currents between a pair of electrically conductive rails while being driven along the rails under the influence of electromagnetic forces generated by the application of the currents, including a plurality of spiraled conductive fibers. The fibers pass through a sleeve and are compacted to a maximum packing density within the sleeve to form a single solidified connection. A brush assembly formed by the sleeve and fibers is mounted on an insulating support structure adapted to slide between the rails of an electromagnetic launcher.
