Abstract:
A rotor arrangement includes a support structure providing a mounting surface extending in an axial direction and a circumferential direction. The support structure is adapted to rotate around the axial direction. A first permanent magnet system is arranged at the mounting surface at a first circumferential region. A second permanent magnet system is arranged at the mounting surface at a second circumferential region. A circumferential distance between the first magnet system and the second magnet system at a first axial position differs from the circumferential distance between the first magnet system and the second magnet system at a second axial position.
Abstract:
An interior permanent magnet motor includes a stator and a rotor. The rotor includes a rotor core formed by laminating a plurality of plate members. The rotor core has a plurality of magnet insertion holes formed therein, into which corresponding permanent magnets are respectively inserted. At least one slit and at least one caulked portion are formed between a rotor outer peripheral surface of the rotor and a radially-outer insertion hole contour surface of the magnet insertion hole. At least a part of the caulked portion is positioned between a pair of width extended lines of the slit.
Abstract:
The rotor comprises rotor segments consisting of a magnetically conductive material, which segments are distributed across the circumference of a rotor housing. Rotor housing portions of low magnetic conductivity are located between the rotor segments. The rotor segments are embedded in a main body in such a way that the outside or inside of the main body forms a closed housing. To produce the rotor a star-shaped blank is punched out of a metal sheet, the arms of said blank being bent out in relation to a central part connecting said arms, in order to form the rotor segments.

A rotating electric machine includes a rotor including: a rotor core divided into blocks in an axial direction, the blocks being arranged to have a phase angle therebetween in a circumferential direction, the rotor core having magnet through holes arrayed in the circumferential direction and formed in an outer circumferential region; and permanent magnets inserted into the magnet through holes. The magnet through hole includes: a magnet insertion portion into which the permanent magnet is inserted; and a non-magnetic portion provided on an outer side of the magnet insertion portion in the circumferential direction. A bridge portion is formed between the outer circumferential surface and an outer circumferential inner wall of the non-magnetic portion. A bridge angle, which is an angle between both circumferential ends of the bridge portion with a rotation center of the rotor core set as a vertex, is larger than a skew angle.
Abstract:
A permanent magnet (PM) motor includes a stator defining an inner stator opening. The inner stator opening extends along a stator axis. The PM motor further includes a rotor disposed inside the stator. The stator includes a plurality of lamination segments stacked together along the stator axis. Each lamination segment includes an annular stator body and teeth extending from the annular stator body toward the stator axis. The teeth are spaced apart from one another so as to define a plurality of slots arranged annularly about the stator axis. The stator defines slot openings arranged annularly about the stator axis. At least one of the lamination segments is rotationally offset relative to another lamination segments so that at least one of the slot openings is circumferentially offset from another slot openings in the other lamination segment.
Abstract:
A rotor of an electric motor with permanent magnets includes a pack of laminations made of ferromagnetic material with slots—for the permanent magnets which are arranged radially with respect to the rotation axis and are extended parallel thereto. The permanent magnets are magnetized along a direction that is perpendicular to the radius of the rotor. Each lamination of the lamination pack further includes poles between the permanent magnets that are rotated in a given direction and by a given angle with respect to the corresponding poles of the adjacent laminations.
Abstract:
A rotor assembly for an electromechanical transducer is provided. The rotor assembly comprises a mechanical support structure and a magnet arrangement having a first magnetic component part and a second magnetic component part. The first magnetic component part and the second magnetic component part are attached to the mechanical support structure and are arranged along an axial direction (Z) of the rotor assembly. With respect to the axial direction a first cross section of the first magnetic component part has a first shape and a second cross section of the second magnetic component part has a second shape being different from the first shape. It is further described an electromechanical transducer and a wind turbine, which are both equipped with such a rotor assembly.
Abstract:
An internal permanent magnet machine has multiple rotor sections, each section having multiple rotor laminations. Permanent magnets are placed asymmetrically in lamination openings to attenuate oscillations in torque caused by harmonic components of magnetic flux. Asymmetry is achieved by placing adjacent permanent magnets or magnet sets on the rotor periphery with different rotor magnetic pole arc angles.
Abstract:
An electrical machine stator assembly comprises: an electroconductive coil arranged circumferentially with respect to the rotational axis; a plurality of pairs of side lamination assemblies arranged circumferentially with respect to the rotational axis; a plurality of pairs of switch lamination assemblies arranged circumferentially with respect to the rotational axis and positioned adjacent ends of side lamination assemblies proximal the rotor; and at least one tooth associated with each switch lamination assembly and proximal the rotor. Each switch lamination assembly comprises a first group of laminated materials aligned generally circumferentially and generally in a first direction with respect to the rotational axis, the first direction being one selected from the group consisting of the axial and radial directions with respect to the rotational axis. Each side lamination assembly comprises a second group of laminated materials aligned generally axially and generally radially with respect to the rotational axis.
Abstract:
A rotor includes magnetic pole portions and first and second ferric core portions. The first and second ferric core portions are each located between magnetic pole portions in the circumferential direction of a rotor. A first gap is formed between the first or second ferric core portion and a magnetic pole portion at a first circumferential side. A second gap is formed between the first or second ferric core portion and the magnetic pole portion at a second circumferential side. The first gap has a smaller width than the second gap at the first ferric core portion. The first ferric core portion is inclined toward the first circumferential side. The first gap is larger than the second gap at the second ferric core portion. The second ferric core portion is inclined toward the second circumferential side.
