    摘要: An impeller and at least a portion of a cooperating peripheral volute may be integrated into, and preferably are integrally injection molded with, concentric outer rotor and inner stator assemblies, respectively, to achieve a low profile precision impeller mechanism based on an improved brushless d.c. motor with low length (L) to diameter (D) ratio and suitable for use in a variety of other applications. In one practical embodiment of such a motor, a rotating cap has an inner circumference which is molded about an outer ferromagnetic back ring that in turn supports a permanently magnetized ring shaped rotor magnet having a number of poles of alternating polarity defined about its inner circumference and separated by a relatively small cylindrical air gap from the outwardly projecting radially oriented selectively magnetized poles of a fixed stator assembly. In one exemplary embodiment, the rotor may have 8 poles and the stator may have 9 poles. The fixed stator assembly is preferably integrally molded into a base housing that also includes a precision fixed bearing support that extends upwardly through the center of the stator assembly and that is rotatably coupled to a rotating shaft that extends downwardly from (and preferably is integral with) the center of the rotating cap. A coaxial pair of preloaded ball bearings is preferably supported between an inner cylindrical surface of the fixed bearing support and an outer cylindrical surface of the rotating shaft, to thereby permit the rotor to rotate precisely about the stator with minimal variation in the cylindrical air gap therebetween.
