Abstract:
A gear motor includes a motor having a housing with first and second endbells and a wall extending therebetween defining a housing interior and a stator and a rotor disposed within the housing interior. The rotor defines a tubular motor shaft extending through the first endbell. A gearhead is driven by the motor shaft and defines a gearhead output shaft coaxial with the motor shaft. A rod has a first end coupled to the gearhead output shaft and extends through a bore in the motor shaft. A magnetized disc is coupled to a second end of the rod and is disposed within the housing interior. A position sensor disposed outside of the housing interior generates signals responsive to rotation of the magnetized disc. The motor and gearhead output shafts may be supported on aligned bearings in the second endbell.
Abstract:
A window covering includes a headrail, a covering material located below the headrail, a rotating member connected to the covering material and provided in the headrail, a motor provided in the headrail and coupled to the rotating member, and a control device provided in the headrail and electrically connected to the motor. The headrail has a longitudinal direction. The rotating member is adapted to drive the covering material to expand or collapse. The motor drives the rotating member to rotate. When a moving speed of a lower end of the covering material decreases and such a situation lasts for a predetermined time, the control device controls the motor to stop operating. Whereby, no matter whether the covering material is fully expanded, fully collapsed, or encounters resistance somewhere in between, the motor can be stopped.

Abstract:
An electromechanical actuator includes a casing, a torque support, a ring, an electrical power supply cable and a device for discharging electrostatic charge. The ring is inserted partly around the torque support and forms a bearing guiding the rotation of a winding tube. The discharge device includes an electrical conduction element, which is configured to be in electrical contact with the tube, and an electrical linking element. The ring bears the electrical conduction element. The torque support at least partly accommodates the electrical linking element. The electrical conduction element is configured to be in electrical contact with the electrical linking element. The electrical linking element electrically connects the electrical conduction element to a shielding or to an earth electrical conductor of the cable.
Abstract:
A contaminant-resistant motor may include an endbell with hermetic sealing of control components within a control module cavity in the endbell. The endbell configuration includes a front wall that isolates the control module cavity from contaminant-prone area of the motor assembly. The stator leads may be sealed within the lead passages using glass or other seals to further isolate the stator leads and control module cavity against ingress of contaminating liquids from the motor interior. The endbell configuration permits larger bearing elements to be used. A method of assembly of the motor may involve first fixture to align the stator, housing and REB to ensure concentric alignment of the stator to housing and the REB to the housing and a second fixture to isolate front and rear bearing bores and the stator inner diameter from encapsulation material and permit the stator to be molded to the housing.

Abstract:
A hygienic drive system for a belt conveyor. The drive system has a stator rigidly mounted in a housing having an outer bearing surface that is continuous with the outer surface of mounting supports and avoids hard-to-clean nooks. A rotor assembly formed by drive wheels rotatably mounted on the outer surface of the housing or by a magnetic belt wrapped around a portion of the outer surface is rotated by a rotating magnetic wave produced by the stator. The stator and rotor can form an induction motor or a synchronous motor.

A linear power generator includes a columnar or cylindrical center yoke made of a soft magnetic material and an outer yoke made of a soft magnetic material. In the center yoke, rod-shaped permanent magnets magnetized in a circumferential direction are arranged in the circumferential direction in an outer circumference of the center yoke such that opposed magnetic poles of the permanent magnets adjacent to each other become identical, the permanent magnets are extended in an axial direction, and the center yoke includes plural center-side projecting portions linearly arranged in the circumferential direction. The cylindrical or columnar outer yoke includes plural winding portions, plural groove portions, and an outer-side projecting portion. The winding portions are arranged in the circumferential direction about a center axis. The groove portions are arranged at positions opposed to the permanent magnets.
