    摘要: A power generator that operates at a reduced keybar voltages and currents, flange currents, and keybar voltage differentials includes a keybar shield that reduces the amount of magnetic flux coupling into a keybar of multiple keybars during operation of the generator. By reducing the amount of coupled flux, the keybar shield reduces a keybar voltage and a keybar current in a keybar, reduces keybar current flowing into a flange, and reduces a voltage differential between voltages induced by the flux in the multiple keybars.

    摘要: A sensing coil affixed to the outside of an induction motor housing uses flux signals from the motor to measure motor speed. In particular, components of the rotor current are measured and compared to analysis from stator fundamentals and sidebands to determine the true rotor frequency which can then be used to determine the motor speed. A shield and/or a compensating coil can optionally be used to filter out extraneous signal noise.

    摘要: A multipole brushless DC motor stator is formed with a pair of complementary opposable claw pole stator structures in which each of the stator structures comprises a stator base formed of a plurality of stacked sheet metal laminations. A plurality of stator pole members extend from the stator base and are formed by compression molding of a ferromagnetic material. In one form, the ferromagnetic material is molded in situ on the stator base by positioning the stator base in a compression mold having the slots in which a powdered or flaked ferromagnetic material can be positioned and compressed by a die. In another form, the ferromagnetic pole members may be independently compression molded of powdered or flaked ferromagnetic material and then adhesively bonded to the stacked laminations forming the stator base. In either method, the stacked laminations are formed with a plurality of receptacles for receiving one end of each of the stator poles and holding the stator poles to the stator base.

    摘要: Rotor temperature in induction motors is estimated without the need for any direct temperature sensors, by using only computer calculations based on data readily available in the motor control center. Thus for any given motor, it is generally possible to predetermine a relationship between rotor temperature and rotor resistance, so that by determining rotor resistance, rotor temperature can be calculated. Rotor resistance, in turn, can be calculated from measured information relating motor slip and motor torque. Any of several methods can be employed for determining torque and slip. Temperature estimation can be obtained by use of equivalent circuit methods, and additional relationships can be obtained from a simplified equivalent circuit.

    摘要: In a five-axis magnetic bearing, each of two combined radial and axial magnetic bearing structures includes a radial magnetic stator and a radial magnetic rotor. A shaft supports the rotors of the bearing structures. Each rotor and stator have an asymmetrical orientation such that the bearing structure is capable of creating a force in an axial direction when the bearing structure is excited. A creatable axial force of a first one of the bearing structures is capable of being in sufficient opposition to a creatable force of a second one of the bearing structures so as to maintain the shaft assembly in a desired axial position. The asymmetrical orientation may include, for example, a rotor being physically offset from a stator or a spatial distinction between a surface region of a respective rotor and a surface region of a respective stator. Examples of spatial distinctions include material extensions, notches, and holes. Each bearing structure can be controlled by four stator portions (actuators) with each actuator being supplied with current signals representative of a common mode axial force command and a respective differential radial force command.
