A method for manufacturing an interior permanent magnet motor is described herein. The method includes providing a plurality of permanent magnets and fabricating a ferromagnetic rotor core configured to accept the permanent magnets therein such that the ferromagnetic material utilized to retain the permanent magnets within the rotor core operates to concentrate and steer the flux from one or more of the permanent magnets to a stator tooth.

The rotor has a plurality of rotor cores that are stacked together, a plurality of permanent magnets axially divided by the rotor cores and circumferentially arranged on each of the rotor cores, to circumferentially form magnetic irregularities, and a rotor blank made of nonmagnetic material arranged between those of the rotor cores that are adjacent to each other.
Abstract:
An electric motor that generates mechanical energy whilst increasing both the motor efficiency and the mechanical power density. The electric motor includes: a plurality of disk surfaces having a main longitudinal axis; a plurality of stationary support structures; and a rotating shaft affixed to the disk surfaces. Each disk surface is coupled to an array of offset magnets. The magnets are arranged as matching magnetic pairs on two adjacent disk surfaces to create a plurality of magnetic fields between the matching magnetic pairs. The magnetic fields are titled at an angle A with respect to the main longitudinal axis. Each stationary support structure has an electromagnetic coil array located in-between each of the matching magnetic pairs, which provides an axial magnetic field when voltage is applied on the electromagnetic coil. Each of the electromagnetic coil array is titled at said angle A with respect to the main longitudinal axis.
Abstract:
In a three-phase permanent-magnet synchronous machine, a pole gap and a skew of permanent magnets on the rotor are designed such that oscillating torques which are caused by the fifth and seventh harmonics of the stator field and of the rotor field are mutually reduced. In particular, the skew can be chosen as a function of the pole gap, such that the majority of the respective oscillating torques is neutralized. This results in minimal torque ripple.

An un-magnetized permanent magnet rotor that can be magnetized without regard to the angular position of the rotor in the magnetizing fixture and will have the resulting permanent magnetic field synchronized to a mechanically keyed shaft comprises an annular permanent magnet or annular permanent magnet rotor body; a mechanically keyed rotor shaft; and means for aligning the un-magnetized permanent magnet or permanent magnet rotor body and the mechanically keyed rotor shaft during assembly. The rotor shaft contains means for aligning to the magnet or magnet rotor body, which, in turn contains means for coupling to the alignment means of the keyed shaft. The permanent magnet or magnet rotor body and rotor shaft are permanently assembled and then magnetized.
