Abstract

The study objective is to find a mechanical analogue of cyclotron motion and to determine the structure of the corresponding device, which is appropriately called a stabilized rotator. The topic of speed stabilization is relevant. With cyclotron motion, the Lagrangian of an electron is twice as large as its kinetic energy. In terms of macromechanics, this corresponds to the equality of kinetic and potential energies. This condition is key to the possibility of generalizing cyclotron motion to mechanics. It follows from this that the composition of a stabilized rotator should include elements that are able to store both of these energy types. Such elements are the load and the spring. The natural rotation frequency of the stabilized rotator is strictly fixed (it does not depend on either the moment of inertia or the angular momentum) and remarkably coincides with the natural frequency of the pendulum with identical parameters. When the angular momentum changes, the radius and tangential velocity change (the rotation frequency does not change and is equal to its own). At zero torque moment in stationary mode, the rotation frequency of the stabilized rotator cannot be arbitrary and takes a single value. Just as when the pendulum is forced to swing, the frequency does not coincide with its own frequency, the rotation frequency of the stabilized rotator does not coincide with its own rotation frequency when loaded. A stabilized rotor can be used to control the natural oscillation frequency of a radial oscillator, although in this case it may have strong competition with mechatronic systems. On the contrary, as a rotation stabilizer, its competitive capabilities are undeniable and determined by the extremely simple design.
