(under the class definition) Subject matter in which a flywheel or other massive rotatable mounted body is mounted in driving relationship with the motor rotor or other working member in such manner that energy transfer can take place from the motor to the flywheel or other massive rotary member and vice versa.
(1) Note. Systems in which the rotary or other working element, per se, of the motor is limited to being massive are included herein.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
45+, for motor systems in which the movable working element of one motor is mechanically interconnected with the movable working element of another motor which may have a flywheel effect.
150, for generator-fed motor systems which have flywheels or other massive bodies on the rotary elements of either the generator or the motor.
SEE OR SEARCH CLASS 74, Machine Element or Mechanism,
572, for flywheel and rotor structures, per se.
123, Internal-Combustion Engines,
179.1+, for inertia starters for internal combustion engines in which an electric motor may store energy in a rapidly revolving flywheel which is then connected to the engine to start it.
192, Clutches and Power-Stop Control,
.02, .098 and 116.5 for flywheels in combination with clutching means for connecting and disconnecting the flywheel through the clutch to the load or driven device, particularly to permit or to cause immediate stoppage of the load or driven device in cases of necessity.
322, Electricity: Single Generator Systems,
4, for generators system which have generators with flywheels or massive moving parts.
