ABSTRACT:
A DC motor mechanical shock protection system monitors the motor current to determine the torque the motor is applying to the gearbox, and takes mitigating action if the torque approaches a level that can damage the driven device and/or the drive system. This protects the system from mechanical shock without limiting the available torque during normal operation. The change in motor current is monitored to detect the inertial torque before the elasticity between the motor and the driven device is fully compressed and the motor mounting or gearbox begin to be damaged.
