Definitions
- My invention relates to im rovements in electric current regulators, an the object of the improvements is to provide a regulator by means of which the intensity of an electric current may be regulated proportionally to the number of revolutions per minute of a rotary member so that upon measurement of said current the speed of said member may be determined.

According to the posit-ion of the coil 6 within the stationary magnetic field 7 current is supplied from a source 17 to the electromagnet 8 or 9.
- the said gear wheels are continuously rotated in the same direction from a suitable source of power.
- the gear wheels 22 and 22' cooperate with a bevel gear wheel 23 the shaft 24 of which carries a contact brush 25 in slidin enga ement with a segmental contact bar 2 and t e turns or taps of a rheostat.
- the gear wheel 23 is engaged byeither the gear wheel 22 or 22, respectively so that the brush 25 is turned in one or the other direction for increasing or reducing the resistance.
- the rotar electromagnets 1 are energized by means of a source of electric current 29 through brushes 30 bearings on slide rings 31.
- the said slide rings 31 are electrically connected by rods 32 with rods 33 and 34 embedded in and insulated from the shaft 2.
- the rods 34 are connected by leads 35 with the coils 36 of the electromagnets 1.
- the coils 37 of the stationary electroma nets 7 are connected in series with the coi s 36, so that the current intensit is the same in both coils, and the fields pro uced thereby are in a definite ratio.
- the current is supplied to the coil 6 through contact sprin 38 engaging contact pins 39 disposed coaxially of the shaft 3, and connected with the coil 6 by leads 40.
- the contact springs 38 are connected respectively with a source of electric energy 41 and the rheostat B, so that the source of electric energy 41, the coil 6 and the rheostat R are included in the same circuit.
- the moment of the metal cylinder 4 depends only on the angular velocity of the electromagnets 1 and that in a higher degree the smaller the temperature coefiicient of the metal of the cylinder at is.
- the intensity of the current flowing through the coil 6 is proportional to the angular velocity of the magnetic system 1.
- the apparatus can be used for various purposes where it is desired to control a current in dependence on the rotary speed of an obect.
