Abstract

A high current and RPM-capable slip ring assembly for use in a selected application for transferring electricity between an exterior environment and an interior environment that includes multiple electrical conduction assemblies with each having a fixed exterior electrical connection disk and rotating interior electrical connection disk mounted around a non-electrically conducting spindle that has a central aperture and a central axle running through the center of the spindle with one end of the central axle connected to the selected application and the other end of the central axle connect to a supporting structure mount and an oiled porous/sintered disk sandwiched around the spindle between the interior and exterior electrical connection disks of each conduction assembly to allow easy rotation between each exterior electrical connection disk and each rotating interior electrical connection disk.
