Abstract of Patent Application(s)

A power producing apparatus includes a stator portion having a stator ring disposed proximate a housing of a turbine engine. The stator portion further includes a plurality of coils. A rotor portion includes a rotor ring having a plurality of permanent magnets disposed coaxial to the plurality of coils, and the permanent magnets are oriented with alternating polarity. Individual or a plurality of coils are configured to be selectively moved axially with respect to the rotor ring.

Intellectual Property

U.S. Patent No. 10,897,182, issued on January 19, 2021, and entitled

Integrated, Variable Flux Path Electrical Generator for Turbine Engines.

The Department of the Air Force may grant the prospective license unless a timely objection is received that sufficiently shows the grant of the license would be inconsistent with the Bayh-Dole Act or implementing regulations. A competing application for a patent license agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and received by the Air Force within the period for timely objections, will be treated as an objection and may be considered as an alternative to the proposed license.

(Authority: 35 U.S.C. 209; 37 CFR 404.)

Air Force Federal Register Liaison Officer.
