Abstract

The invention relates to an underspeed detection device ( 2 ) for a motor ( 4 ) comprising a stator and a rotor movable relative to the stator, the detection device ( 2 ) comprising detection means ( 12 ) able to generate an electric rotation signal (i r ) representative of the speed of rotation of the rotor, and electronic analysis means ( 20 ) able to analyze the rotation signal (i r ) to detect an underspeed situation, characterized in that the detection device ( 2 ) further comprises conversion means ( 18 ) able to convert part (i p ) of the electric rotation signal (i r ) into a power supply current (i al ) for the analysis means ( 20 ), and means for applying the power supply current (i al ) to the analysis means ( 20 ) for their electric power supply.

Claims (10)

1 . A ventilation system comprising a motor and an underspeed detection device of an engine comprising a stator and a rotor movable relative to the stator, the detection device comprising detection means able to generate an electric rotation signal representative of the speed of rotation of the rotor, and electronic analysis means able to analyze the rotation signal to detect an underspeed situation,

characterized in that the detection device further comprises conversion means able to convert part of the electric rotation signal into a power supply current of the analysis means, and means for applying the power supply current to the analysis means to supply them with electricity.

2 . The system according to claim 1 , characterized in that the conversion means are able to convert the part of the electric rotational signal into a substantially DC power supply current.

3 . The system according to claim 1 , characterized in that the analysis means are able to be powered solely by the power supply current coming from the conversion means.

4 . The system according to claim 1 , characterized in that the detection means comprise a detector comprising at least one turn that is stationary relative to the stator and a magnetic element that is rotatable with the rotor and at least partially across from the or each turn.

5 . The system according to claim 4 , characterized in that the magnetic element is a permanent magnet.

6 . The system according to claim 4 , characterized in that the detector comprises a plurality of turns electrically connected to form a coil.

7 . The system according to claim 6 , characterized in that the magnetic element is made from a multilayer printed circuit.

8 . A vehicle comprising a ventilation system according to claim 1 .

9 . The vehicle according to claim 8 , characterized in that it is an aircraft.
