Abstract:
The invention relates to a secondary part (2, 3) of a linear electrical machine (5), wherein the secondary part (2, 3) has permanent magnets (11) and a mount (13). The secondary part (2, 3) has spacer elements (9), wherein an installation height of the secondary part (2, 3) is also determined by means of the spacer elements (9). Tolerances of the installation height can be maintained more easily by means of the spacer elements. In a method for manufacturing a secondary part (2, 3) of a linear electrical machine (5), the spacer elements (9) are cast together with the mount (13) on which the permanent magnets (9) are arranged such that the permanent magnets (9) are embedded in the casting compound (15) and the casting compound (15) forms the surface of the secondary part (2, 3) in the region of the permanent magnets (11), wherein the spacer elements (9) protrude out of the casting compound (15) such that part of the surface of the secondary part (2, 3) is also formed by the spacer elements (9).
Abstract:
In a linear motor (1), the detent force is reduced by the height of the iron poles (522) being selected differently in the two outer regions of the coil set, preferably by a gradual reduction of the height of the iron poles (522) towards the ends of the stator (2). In combination with a slight inclination of the magnets, the detent forces are further minimized, with negligible losses of the propulsive force.The exact dimensioning of the iron poles (522) is dependent inter alia on the dimensioning of the coils (51) and other characteristics of the linear motor (1) as a whole, and can be found and optimized by simulations. Here, an optimum is sought between as great a reduction as possible of the detent force amplitude and as high a propulsive force as possible. A linear motor (1) according to the invention has substantially the same manufacturing costs as a conventional linear motor without measures against the detent forces, because no costly active devices are necessary and the production of the stator does not become more complicated. As no additional space is necessary for active or passive devices for detent force reduction, such a linear motor is of more compact construction and therefore has a higher power density.

Abstract:
To reduce the magnetic flux leakage through the gap between magnetic pole teeth of an armature so as to reduce the magnetic attraction force generated between the armature and a needle, an armature unit is provided with two magnetic poles 1 and 2, on the top of which are magnetic pole teeth 11a, 12b, 21b, and 22a protruding toward the opposing magnetic pole, where the magnetic pole teeth of the magnetic pole 1 are arranged at two heights, upper and lower, and the magnetic pole teeth of the opposing magnetic pole 2 are arranged at two heights, upper and lower, so that the magnetic flux flows upward and downward alternately between the upper and lower magnetic pole teeth. The needle 6 equipped with permanent magnets moves relatively in the gap 8 between the upper and lower magnetic pole surfaces of the armature unit.
Abstract:
An alternator of the present invention includes a housing, a stator assembly mounted stationary within the housing, and a rotor assembly mounted rotatably within the housing in functional engagement with the stator assembly. An air gap extends annularly around the alternator between the rotor assembly and the stator assembly. The rotor assembly has a first end and a second end, and the air gap has a non-uniform thickness that varies along the axial length of the rotor assembly between the first and second ends of the rotor assembly. This non-uniform thickness is designed to avoid interference between rotor outer surface and stator inner surface at high rotor spin speed, but minimize the averaged air gap thickness for high alternator performance.
Abstract:
A dual rotor-type motor includes a stator having a coil wound therearound, an outer rotor, and an inner rotor. The stator includes inner teeth facing the inner rotor, and outer teeth facing the outer rotor, and the inner teeth are misaligned in a rotating direction by as much as an angle with respect to the outer teeth, which may enable the reduction of a torque ripple to a satisfying level, even without having to change the design of the stator structure into a complicated form.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are disclosed for monitoring rotor flux linkage of a rotor via a monitoring mode and resetting rotor flux linkage of the rotor via a resetting mode. As one example, monitoring rotor flux linkage includes measuring rotor flux linkage generated by rotor magnets at an air gap of the motor continuously during run-time via a plurality of models and various system components. As another example, resetting rotor flux linkage includes ensuring motor movement ceases and injecting a positive pulse d-axis current for a plurality of motor pole pairs in response to rotor flux linkage not being within a pre-determined threshold. In this way, magnets with low remanent flux density and low coercivity may be utilized in various embodiments of electric motors, reducing design complexity of a rotor of an electric motor, and in turn, reducing production costs.
