Abstract:
A stator (10) for a motor according to this invention has a substantially cylindrical shape and is disposed coaxially with respect to a substantially cylindrical rotor (20) which has permanent magnets. The stator (10) has a stator core (1) containing teeth (3) projecting towards the rotor (20). Each tooth has a tooth body (1b) on which a coil (2) is wound and a tooth tips (1c) having a substantially arc-shaped surface. The tooth tip (1c) faces the rotor (20) through the substantially arc-shaped surface and does not have the coil (2) wound thereon. The stator core has two types of steel plates (11e, 11d) laminated in an axial direction. The centers (16, 16null) of the tooth tips of the two types of steel plates (11e, 11d) in a peripheral direction are offset in a peripheral direction from the center (15) of the tooth body in a peripheral direction. The two types of steel plates (11e, 11d) have the tooth body (1b) of the same shape.
Abstract:
A permanent-magnet rotating machine includes a rotor having a rotor core carrying on its curved outer surface multiple permanent magnets arranged in two rows along an axial direction in such a manner that the permanent magnets in one row are skewed from those in the other row in a circumferential direction by a row-to-row skew angle (electrical angle) nulle, and a stator having a cylindrical stator core in which the rotor is disposed, the stator core being provided with stator coils for producing a rotating magnetic field for rotating the rotor. A lower limit of the row-to-row skew angle nulle is set at a value larger than 30 degrees (electrical angle). A cogging torque ratio, or the ratio of a cogging torque occurring in the absence of skew to a cogging torque occurring when the permanent magnets are skewed, at a row-to-row skew angle of 30 degrees is calculated based on the relationship between the cogging torque ratio and the row-to-row skew angle nulle and B-H curve properties of the stator core, and an upper limit of the row-to-row skew angle nulle is set at a value not larger than its maximum value at which the cogging torque ratio does not exceed the calculated cogging torque ratio at 30 degrees.
Abstract:
A rotary electric motor has a stator with a plurality of separate and ferromagnetically isolated electromagnet core segments disposed coaxially about an axis of rotation. Core materials such as a soft magnetically permeable medium that is amenable to formation of a variety of particularized shapes. The core segments are supported by a non-ferromagnetic structure. The rotor comprises a plurality of permanent magnets with surfaces that face an air gap separation from the stator, the surfaces having a common geometric configuration. The stator pole surface geometric configuration and the rotor magnet surface geometric configuration are skewed with respect to each other. The effect of this skewing arrangement is to dampen the rate of change of the magnitude of the cogging torque that is produced by the interaction between a rotor magnet and a pole of a non-energized stator electromagnet as the permanent magnet traverses its rotational path.

At least one primary part (1) and at least one secondary part (6), which has a sequence of poles (10) formed by permanent magnets, and is also larger than the length of the primary part (1) in the movement direction (5). The primary part (1) has primary slots (9) which are suitable for receiving monophase or polyphase windings. Moreover, the primary part (1) has means for changing the magnetic force in the movement direction (5) of the linear motor in the region of the end piece (2) of the primary part (1). The end faces (14) of the end pieces (2) extend perpendicular to the movement direction (5) of the linear motor.

The rotor is formed of a predetermined number of angular regions of the same peripheral angle which adjoin one another in a circumferential direction and preferably have at least one pair of flux guidance regions (10, 11) facing the stator (1), with flux guidance properties which differ in the main direction of the rotary field. According to a first feature, the stator (1) has a preset number of angular regions of the same peripheral angle which adjoin one another in the circumferential direction, preferably having at least one pair of flux guidance regions (13, 14) facing the rotor (3) with flux guidance properties which differ in the main direction of the rotary field, and the number of angular regions (12) on the stator (1) differ from the number of angular regions (9) on the rotor (3) by an integral multiple of the pole number, preferably the simple pole number, of the three-phase current stator winding. Alternatively or together with the first feature, according to a second feature, the flux guidance regions (10, 11) and connecting elements for connection to shaft (2) of the reluctance motor (3) enclose a flux guidance rotor (27) which floats on shaft (2) via bearings and which is made of ferromagnetic material for returning of the lines of force of the rotary field.

Abstract:
An AC servo motor in which annular polar anisotropic magnets, formed by splitting an anisotropic magnet into two or more portions in an axial line direction, are used in a rotor. The magnetic poles of the split annular polar anisotropic magnets are disposed so as to be shifted by a predetermined angle &thgr;′ which is greater than a skew angle &thgr; determined based on the number of torque ripples per rotation of the rotor determined by the number of magnetic poles and the number of slots in a stator-side iron core. The predetermined angle &thgr;′ is the angle obtained after adding to the skew angle &thgr; a value which takes into consideration magnetic interference between the magnets. The invention provides an AC servomotor which can be controlled with high precision as a result of reducing cogging torque generated between the magnet and the stator-side iron core.
Abstract:
This application relates to an improved motor for pumping fluid. The motor is improved by integrating a fluid pumping means within a rotor structure. Particularly, the laminations of a rotor are skewed into a fan or spiraling configuration. The rotor rotates in response to electromagnetic flux produced by a stator. During rotation the skewed rotor generate a propulsive force. When fluid is introduced to the skewed rotor, the propulsive force carries the fluid through the motor. A conduit is provided for directing at least some of the fluid flow.

Abstract:
A brushless DC motor minimizes a chance of dislocation of or damage to an insulator used in the brushless DC motor. Slant portions are provided at end portions of the insulator; therefore, even if a nozzle of a machine for installing a winding should hit the insulator while moving between teeth, the insulator moves in a direction for coming in close contact with a slot aperture, i.e., in a direction substantially at right angles to a direction in which the nozzle moves. This arrangement prevents the insulator from moving by being pushed by the nozzle, making it possible to minimize a chance of occurrence of an insulation failure caused by a damaged or dislocated insulator.
