Abstract

777,973. Gyroscopic apparatus. SMITH & SONS (ENGLAND), Ltd., S. Dec. 2, 1955 [Oct. 29, 1954], No. 31276/54. Class 97(3) A caging device for a gyroscope consists of a cam member 8 on the inner gimbal or rotor casing 2 having a conical depression 8a, and a plunger 10 which may be urged against the cam and depression. The plunger is operated by a solenoid 16 with an armature 13. A lightly spring-loaded plunger 15 carried in a bore in armature 13 holds open contacts 14 when the solenoid is not energized. When the caging means are operated, contacts 14 close the circuit of a warning lamp 18. Movement of the rotor casing 2 is limited by a stop ring 11 which engages a conical stop 12 surrounding solenoid 16.
