Generally, the stator and rotor devices of many rotating devices are independent. While rotating, the stator needs to communicate with the rotor to work in harmony with each other. Therefore, it is particularly important to establish a communication link between the stator and the rotor.

Although this solution is simple, because of the mobility of the rotating device, the use of a wire connection in the slip ring will increase the reliability of the communication. At the same time, the wire may The friction with the inner wall of the slip ring causes wear and tear, which seriously affects the communication quality and reduces the service life of the device.
现有一部分滑环也使用了无线电通信,比如2.4G、5G等等,但无线电通信很容易受到外部电磁波的干扰,并且耗电较大,功率和辐射也比较大,不适宜长时间工作。Some existing slip rings also use radio communication, such as 2.4G, 5G, etc. However, radio communication is easily susceptible to external electromagnetic waves, and consumes a large amount of power. The power and radiation are also large, which is not suitable for long-term work.
