Abstract:
A door opening and closing apparatus for a vehicle includes a drive member adapted to open and close a vehicle door opening and closing a door opening formed at a vehicle body. The drive member includes a flat motor including a rotating shaft, an output shaft including an axis line that is parallel with an axis line of the rotating shaft, a first gear and a second gear which are respectively connected to the rotating shaft and the output shaft to be integrally rotatable, the first gear and the second gear meshing with each other to decelerate rotation of the rotating shaft and then transmit the rotation to the output shaft, and an output member fixedly attached to the output shaft to rotate integrally with the output shaft and being adapted to be connected to the vehicle door.
Abstract:
An electromagnetic clutch device includes an armature, a rotor, an electromagnet, and a silencing member. The armature is adapted to be supported by a driving member so that the armature is movable in the axial direction and rotate integrally with the driving member. The rotor is arranged coaxially with the armature, rotate with respect to the armature and rotate integrally with an output member. The electromagnet presses the armature and the rotor against each other based on an electromagnetic attraction force generated when current is supplied through the electromagnet to be coupled with each other in the torque transmittable manner. The silencing member is provided on an outer circumferential portion of the armature. The silencing member is formed of a soft material that attenuates noise generated by the vibration of the armature in a state where the silencing member is out of contact with any member other than the armature.
Abstract:
A brushless motor includes: a magnet rotor rotatable integrally with a rotary shaft; and a stator disposed to face the magnet rotor with a gap therebetween in a diameter direction of the magnet rotor, The stator includes first teeth each having a first counter surface facing the magnet rotor with a first air gap therebetween, second teeth provided between the first teeth adjacent to each other in a circumferential direction of the stator and each having a second counter surface facing the magnet rotor through a second air gap, and drive coils formed by concentrically winding a conductive wire around only the first teeth. A length of the second counter surface is shorter than that of the first counter surface, each of the first and second counter surfaces is a curved surface, the first and second air gaps become larger from the center thereof toward an edge thereof, respectively
