A split ring is a name for a ring of spring steel that is made like two turns of a regular spring wound very closely. Usually they are large and used to hold keys together, so they are commonly thought of as key rings.
There is also a smaller version of this used in jewelry to attach chains and pendants.
This is the standard answer for both split ring commutator and slip ring. A split ring commutator is to reverse the current direction through an armature every half turn A slip ring is to ensure that the current continue to flow to the external circuit Last bit of additional information. Carbon brush ensure that the slip ring are in contact with the circuit containing the external load *Note: Do not get confused with split ring commutator(d.c.generator) & slip ring(a.c. generator)
A split-ring commutator is used in electric motors and generators to convert alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). It consists of two segments connected to the output of the coil, which rotates in a magnetic field. As the coil spins, the split-ring alternately connects the coil to the external circuit, allowing current to flow in one direction, effectively rectifying the AC output into DC. This mechanism ensures that the output voltage remains unidirectional, providing a consistent flow of current.
The part of an electric motor that connects the power supply to the split-ring and coil is called the commutator. It works in conjunction with the brushes, which are conductive contacts that transfer electrical current from the power supply to the rotating coil through the commutator. This setup allows for the continuous rotation of the coil by reversing the current direction at the appropriate moments.
Commutator is a split ring which reverses the current .when the commutator turns around due to magnetic force and because of it even the current gets reversed
An 'RMU' is a 'ring-main unit', a type of switchgear used to connect distribution transformers to an underground, secondary-distribution (11 kV in the UK), cable ring-main system. It enables the transformer to be disconnected from the ring main, and it also enables the ring main itself to be 'split' where the RMU is installed. Each of the three switches within an RMU usually incorporates an 'earth' (ground) position, which will enable either the transformer itself, or the ring main to be earthed for safety reasons before any maintenance work can proceed.
The split or gap in a piston ring is called the ring end gap. It allows for the ring to expand and contract with changes in temperature during engine operation, ensuring a proper seal against the cylinder wall.
A split-ring connector is a metal ring with prongs that penetrate into the wood to hold the timber together. It is often used in timber framing to join beams or trusses. The split-ring connector is hammered into pre-drilled holes in the wood, creating a strong and durable connection.
Besides the fact that you couldn't put it on the piston without the split, it allows for expansion.
The split ring resonator has a split at both ends to create an open circuit, which allows for the formation of a resonant circuit. This design enables the resonator to exhibit unique electromagnetic properties, such as negative permeability and negative permittivity, which are useful in various RF applications like filters and antennas. The structure of the split ring resonator is crucial for achieving the desired resonant frequency and performance in RF systems.

U sohuld replace the slip-ring which it is in the AC generator to a commutator. It is a split-ring. Then u can produce DC generator.

remove the split ring and then pry open the case.
It generates a alternating current to keep the motor rotating in the same direction.
